TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

h
Silt,—There seems to be a singular oversikt
in the- letter of Sir Rufane Donkin, which app
peared in your Journal of yesterday. Sir RufOe
says—" I cannot persuade myself that the violri,
TuvEPalAcro means to suppose or conjecture;
Sir R. is aware that Tuy and PcaAcu are equi.
valent to con and jacio, but seems to have for
gotten that the English word conjecture is de'
rived from con and jacio.
The implied meaning of the word crup.,Ccadf
/Las in the passage in question is evidently " .°
conjecture," or come to a conclusion by a cons'
deration of the circumstances—l should translate
it into Latin by conjecture assequor—thus

dreams to have come to fulfilment."—l am, 51.'
