,MALL Pot.—We understand that this
disease has been lately prevailing in the neighbourhood of
Redruth, to a distressing extent, and with fatal virulence. It
appears to have attacked persons who had been vaccinated, as
well as those who had not obtained that hoped for protection.
West Briton.

SERIOUS ROBBERY.—On Saturday Mr. John
Hempstead, of Southminster, Essex, an old Man of 70, gave
information at the station-house of the M division of police, of
being robbed of five £lOO notes, in the following manner:—
He had just arrived in town, and, meeting a man in the
borough, who stated that he was out of employment, and was
just up from the country, he took him into a public-house in
Park-street, Borough-market, where he agreed to engage him
as his servant (luring his stay in town ; whilst drinking with
the man two others came in, and a hot of £lO was made that
no one could show as much money as one of them salt; he hail
about him ; the countryman pulled out his money and showed
it, when his newly engaged servant left the room, and after-
wards the other men, who, not returning, excited his suspicion,
and on searching his pockets, he found his money bone.
Oa Thursday afternoon some thief cut the
pocket of Miss Tilbury, of George-street, Portrnan-t )
sq(uamr,ias
she was riding from the hank to Newman-street,
dO/. in gold.

TO TILE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR—It appears that the recent interpretation of the
Canada Reserves by the whole bench of Judges has
caused the Bishop of Exeter to give a new meaning to
the words " Church of Scotland." Unable to deny
any longer the appellation and character of CHURCH to
the religion of Scotland, he now endeavours to limit
that Church to Scotland only. Was ever, Mr. Editor
a greater absurdity put forth from the mouth of man?
With as much reason might we hold that a Scotch
marriage is valid in Scotland only ; so that, on coming
to live in England, a Scotchman may discard his Scotch
wife, and take a new one, without being guilty of bigot*
Even admitting that the religion of Scotland ought not
to be considered " a Church" in those foreign posses-
sions which belonged to England exclusively before the
union of the two kingdoms, in all the subsequent ac-
quisitions of the United Kingdom, Scotland bas
an equal share with England. Now, Sir, those
subsequent acquisitions form so large a portion of our
colonial possessions, as to make it not worth while to
contend with the Bishop as to the rest. Scotland, then'
can have a Church in nineteen parts out of twenty. 0'
our colonies, which will include Malta and the lonian
Islands in Europe, all our possessions in India, Baca'
bay alone excepted, every thing in Africa, and the
whole of what we hold on the continent of America.
Such being the truth, even according to the Bishop's
own line of argument, I conceive that his Lordship
must have been either asleep or —, when he Pet
forth his absurd position as above-mentioned. If t.ll
religion of Scotland he not a true Church in England'
how can it be shown that the religion of England i 5
true Church in Scotland. For the same reasoning o'l'
apply to the one as well as to the other ! and so the
Bishop's logic will prove ton much for his own case ;a
Mr. n
singular oversight for his Lordship to have corn
—I remain, Editor, your most obedient servant
old Correspondent, rnitte
