A RHETORICAL TRIUMPH.
Sheridan's Speech In Connection With
the Hastings Trial.


the Hastings Trial.
Answering a correspondent who ask.
ed about the speech of Sheridan in con-
nection with the Warren Hastings
trial, the London News says:
THAT immense oratorical triumph
was certainly not reported in the notes
In question, for the Dude speech was
not delivered during the trial. Sheri-
dan pronounced IL in the house of COM
mons in the year before the trial in
moving that the Dude charge should
be one of the articles of the impeach-
ment.
mo speech recorded in our history
ever had such reception. The entire
house and all in the galleries violated
the traditions of parliament and set n
precedent that remains unfollowed by
clapping furiously and continuously.
Pitt fully conscious of the extraor-
binary state of excitement disclosed by
This breach of decorum, moved the ad-
1ournment on the unparalleled ground
that the minds of members were too
agitated TO discuss the question with
GOODNESS and judicially' Sheridan had
SPOhSH Aol I'VE HOurS ana IOrIy m1n-
utes. No full report OF the speech
exists. The best appeared in the Lon
don Chronicle for Feb. 6, 1877.
1.-THE fame of the speech was such
that when the trial came on ESQ was
gladly paid for n seat in the hall on
the day OF Sheridan's speech as
manager Of the impeachment Macau-
lays account Of that speech. which is
both misleading and inaccurate I'm sew
eral respects, at least permits us to
know the fact that the speaker was
publicly embraced by Burke on resum-
ing his seat. At later stage in the
trial-six years later, I'm fact-Sheridan
delivered another speech which was
described by one of the auditors as an
extraordinary rhetorical triumph"

The Cinchona Tree.

The cultivation of the cinchona tree
is one of the principal industries of
Java, and the chemical process ADOPT
ed by the Dutch for the preparation of
the drug is said to produce the best
sulphate Of quinine procurable. This
is carried out in Holland, whittier the
bark as stripped from the trees and
dried is exported. Cinchona planta-
lions are frequent on the lower hills
throughout Java. and the trees are of
all sizes, from the mere sapling up to
thirty feet high.

too much, when the telephon
