MEMBERS INDISPOSED.—The present epi•
demir, which attacks the patient with sharp fev-r, attended
in m inv cam s with infl onmation, is still very prevalent
in the Metropolis. Mr. JOSEPH iluatE suffered so much
from the complaint, that during two days last week he was
very indisposed, but is now rapidly recovering.
ALTHORP has just recovered from an attack ; and
Sir JAMES GRAHAM, who has also been confined in a
Si iiihr manner, is now convalescent. Mr. CORBETT, who
ha+ been slightly indisposed, is recovered ; and also Mt.
O'CONNELL. Ir is supposed that the la e lone sittings in
th House of Commons, the breathing of the impure air of
the }lota e, and the sod len transitions from heat to cold
on leivine the House, caused the it ness of many of the
Members ; and preuisposed the constitution to the pre.
vailing influenza, arising from the lase and present harsh,
scarchitu, and unfavourable weather.

The Nev. HARRY LEE lately held his tithe
audit at North Bradley, Wilts, and after he had received
his own titters, as sic:sr of the parish, as well as the renfs
wit' reel, rial tithes for the C liege of Winchester, as im-
pr.priarors thereof, he distributed to the poor of North
Bradley pari-h, articles of clothing, blanketing, bedding,
&c., to the amount of 1001. being nearly one-third of his
vic rirl tithes. He els., in the course of the last year,
expended between 501. and 1001. in keeping a certtin
number of hands at extra labour, who would otherwise
have been unemployed : this, indeed, he has done, more
or less, every time since he has been incumbent of the
parish. His amiable lady also provided the whole of his
school, which was endowed by his predecessor, Archdeacon
DA ÜBENY, as well as the girls of the Sunday school (alto-
gether amounting to SO girls and boys), with warm
clothing, to enab e them to attend their parish church with
cotniurt and decency.

EPIDEMIC INFLUENZA.—About a fortnight
ago, a severe form of catarrhal epidemic began to show
itself in London, and has since become extremely preva..
lent. It usu Lily commences suddenly with headache and
feelings of general discomfort, attended or soon fol owed
by cough hoarseness, or loss of voice—oppression, and
sometimes severe pain in the chest—tenderness about the
ribs, and sense of having been bruised about the limbs and
muscles. Fur twenty-four or forty-eight hours the con
stitutional disturbance is sometitnes vet y great—with con-
sidenble anxiety, and turbulence of the circulation ; but
after this time the urgency of the symptoms abate,
leaving, however in some cases, extreme I inguor, which
only slowly subsides. The disease, so far as we have
seen, does not particul trly affect those who are sulject to
common caiarrh ; many certainly have it who are not
liable to " catch cold.' With respect to treatment, the
patients do not require, nor bear, the depleting means
which the sevt:iity of the symptoms under other circum-
stances wont(' Warrant. We presume that it is to be
looked upon as the epidemic influenza which has lately
pees ailed in the eastern parts of Europe, and that it is
travelline., like many of its predecessors, to the west.—

FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT NEAR CARNAR-
voN.—On Wednesday morning, as RICHARD POWELL was
driving the ox-team of Sir ROBERT BROWNRIGG, on the
farm at lid!stone, a boy, accidentally passing, friglrened the
oxen : they ran away, knocked down the poor fellow, and
the plough passing over him, the point of the ploughshare
entered about the middle of his thigh, went quite through
his bowels, and came out at his breast. As soon as the
accident was known, a bed was sent from Sir Robert's
upon a truck upon which the unfortunate man was eon-
veyrd to Ilillston-house, where he lingered in the greatest
agony till Friday looming, when he died. POwELL, in his
youthful doss, served in the militia, from whence he vo-
lunteered into the line, served for many years under Lord
WELLINGTON, and was at the battle of Waterloo ; and it is
r mark the that, thou.2ll frequently exposed to the greatest
(Linger, he escaped without injury. At the conmusion of
the war he was discharged, and returned to his native
place, where he was emplo)ed as a quarry•m-in and
about five years since, in blowing a rock, the charge ex-
ploded sooner than he expected, and he lost his lett t:Yet
and part of the tour fingers of one of his hands, besides
being severely bruised. Since this accident he has not
been able to do touch work ; but for the last three years,
from ch iritible motives, he has been employed by Sir
ROBERT BBOW.RIGO, anal was driving a plough for him
when the accident happened.
