Lofu human seems 10 have got himself into Il
scrape BY appointing toa confidential office in aua-
d. Mr.. Iuton, who figured dsrepuably some wears
ago, IN an Application made to Parliament by his
vile for divorce. which. contrary TO the general
usage, was successful The London Tunes Of the
Sd inst. thus epiiomizes discussion of this subject
IN the House of Lords:
:. In the House OF Lords last night conversation
took place relative TO the appointment conferred on
Mr.. Turton by Lord Durham. Loid Wharncliile
alter quoting the answers which Lord Melbourne
had gwen on former occasions TO questions put TO
HIM on this subject, which were TO the effect that Mr.
Tunon would not be appointed TO any office in Can
ada, called upon Lord Melbourne to reconcile these
answers with he fact Of Mr. Turton's Appointment
10 the Office of second secretary to the General Go
vernment Of Canada. Lord Melbourne, in reply.
said, :. he admitted that the words he U.old Mel
tourne) had used on The occasions alluded TO- as
quoted by tue Lord, were exactly accurate lie
believed thatthe dispatches received from Lord
Durham contained no account whatsoever of that
appointment, or the grounds which such an an
pointment was intended 10 be made. The staten. en-,
however, which had been quoted by the noble Lord
from the Quebec Gazette left doubt the fact.
AS Tor himself, he could only say that it with
very great concern and surprise he that appoint
ment announced. At the time he made the state
ment to the House which had been referred to, he
felt confident that no such appoiainlent aeouid take
place" When this answer is known in Canada, we
suppose that either Lord Durhsm or MI Tur-
ton, both, will think it necessary to tender their
resignation"
Mr.. Turton married to a Miss Brown, daugh-
ter Of Gen. Bfo~n-a very beautiful woman and
her sister, not less beautiful, resided with them
This sister, thus living under his roof he seduced,
and for ihereofis wife applied and oil tanned
