The Commission of Organization which was ap pointed to draw up plans for transferring the newly acquired countries to Prussian administra tion has finished its labours, and has presented its report to the government. Count Bismarck is rather better, but it is still doubtful whether he will be able to take a personal part in the festivities at the approaching entry of the troops into Berlin. A royal letter has been published to-day express ing thanks for thenumerous and welcome assurances of fidelity, devotion, and readiness for every sacri fice for king and country, which have been ad dressed to his Majesty from all quarters on the occasion of the victorious conclusion of the war. The letter declares that the unshakeable union between the sovereign and the people will in the new epoch conciliate all differences and all oppo sition, and turn them to advantage in love for the common fatherland, and in the accomplishment of Prussia's mission in Germany. . The official programme of the festivities to take place in this capital upon the triumphal entry of the troops on the 20th and 21st inst. has just ap- THE POPE. VIENNA, Barr. 19. The Debatte of to-day says :—" We learn from Rome that Monsignor llohenlohe embarked on the 16th inst. at Civita Vecchia for England, with an autograph letter from the Pope to Queen Victoria." The same journal adds that during the last few days numerous interviews have taken place between Mr. (Ado Russell and M. de Sartiges, the French Ambassador at the Papal Court. ITALY. FLORENCE, Sr.a 19, Evx 9r9, The Official Gazette of to-day says : " The telegraphic communication with Palermo being intercepted, the government possesses no direct intelligence as to the exact condition of the interior of the city. Information, however, re ceived from the authorities of localities in the vicinity of Palermo states that the royal troops occupy the palace, the prisons, the custom offices, Castellamare, and the port. The steam corvette Tancredo commanded the neighbourhood of the ' prisons by means of grenades. " The population have not taken part in the movement. A portion of the National Guard which had been able to assemble rendered assist ance to the troops. "A good feeling prevails, and the National Guard at Messina, Patti, Alcamo, and Termini have offered their services to the government. " In the environs of Palermo the citizens are prepared to repulse any attacks from the brigands." General Cadorna, with the Angioletti-Lonzoni division, will shortly arrive at Palermo. Fifteen hundred troops were disembarked at Palermo yes- I terday, and other reinforcements have been sent from Leghorn and Ancona. A squadron of eight vessels arrived this morning at the port of Palermo. It is hoped that direct communication with the town will shortly be re-established. A royal decree has been issued appointing Ge neral Cadorna commander of the military forces in Sicily, and Commissioner Extraordinary of the King in the city and province of Palermo. THE TYROL.

On inquiry at the Orleans Railway I find that orders have really been given to hold a train in readiness for his departure, but no time is fixed. . . . THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH EXPEDITION. LIVERPOOL, WIDNZF4DAT Moss, flerr. 19. The Atlantic Telegraph expedition is a thing of the put. The good it has sooomplished lives after it, but its existence as a separate entity is at an end, and its chief actors are already distributed over the country. Captain Anderson brought the Great Eastern from Crookhaven " by the lead," and timed her arrival off Holyhead to within a couple of minutes of her sighting its light. She reached her mooring-ground between nine and ten this morning, and in less than an hour afterwards parted company with some of her chief guests. Departures have continued rapidly through the day, and at this time Mr. Gooch is in Berkshire, Professor Thomson in Scotland, Mt. Canning and Mr. Willoughby Smith in London, and Mr. J. C. Deane and Captain Hamilton on their way thither. Mr. Clifford remains at Liverpool until to morrow, and Captain Anderson is expected on shore this evening. To-morrow the cable hands and a great portion of the crew are to be paid off, from 8,0001. to 9,0001. being dis bursed in the process ; after which the Great East ern will be probably handed over to the painters and cleaners, while the several directors settle upon her future use. The Chamber of Commerce here huldetermined to invite the chiefsof the enterprise to a banquet, and a deputation was, it was said, to have waited onthem to-day ; but a strong posse of custom-hones officers, who rigidly examined all luggage about to leave the ship, was the only visit ation made before the party broke up ; and how ever full of hospitable, good intentions Liverpool may have been, it is certain the Great Eastern has been allowed to glide quietly up the Mersey to her resting-place without the faintest demonstration in her favour. . A man named Daniel has just been tried at the Court of Assizes of the Seine on two charges ; first, of embe72.ling a sum of 17,000 fr. from the ateliers nationaux in 1848 ; and the second for forging bills in 1864 on different tradesmen to the amount of 210 fr. He had been tried by default on each occasion, and condemned—the first time, to 8 years' imprisonment ; the second, to the same period of hard labour. He, however, escaped arrest until recently, when he was condemned to a term of imprisonment for vagrancy and theft at Chalons. He now appeared to take his trial on the previous charges. In 1848, Daniel and another man named Faucon, were employed as clerks at the city of Paris atelier, in the Place del'Elibpl; The latter as cashier. A deficit of 17,000 fr. having been found in Faucon's account, he pretended to have lent that sum to Daniel, but it was shown that the two men resided together in the greatest intimacy at Ville d'Avray, where they had a country house, kept a carriage, and caused a scandal to the neighbourhood by their debauchery. The court now combined the two indictments, and condemned Daniel to five years' imprisonment and 200 fr. fine, and besides confirmed a portion of the first judgment by which he had been ordered to restore a sum of 18,350 fr. to the city of Paris. The prisoner's advocate pleaded in mitigation that in 1848 sound ideas of property were so shaken that nobody knew exactly what belonged to anybody, and everybody thought himself justified in taking what he could get. The argument, seeing the great lapse of time since 1848, might perhaps have had some weight with the court, had it not been for the subsequent delinquencies not admitting of the like excuse.

THURSDAY, This morning at 6 a.m. a small party consisting of Mr. Barber, one of the principal proprietors of the great ship ; Mr. Yates, her secretary, Mr. Shuter, the Telegraph Construction secretary ; the bearer of a special despatch from Mr. Glass, and half a dozen other gentlemen left in the steam tug Victoria to meet the Great Eastern. By half 'past seven they were on board exchanging con gratulations and hearing the news. So quietly I WAS this done, that Mr. Canning and others were still in their cabins, and unaware that a tug was in sight) when the sounds of hearty congratulation told *hem of the arrival of their friends. Mr. Glass's letter was addressed to the practical scientific men on board, and the following reply was sent : 10, 8 AX.

A. Glees, Frq. WILLOUGHBY SMITH, Wit LIAM THUMMON. ILIMAIII3. No important alterations of temperature have been reported this morning, but the winds are again increasing from the west and south-west on our western warts, with falling barometers . The weather is overcast, with rain In Nam. It is interesting to know that a couple of hour s aftelthe splice of the picked up cable was effected, the weather became unfavourable, and that its recovery might have been indefinitely delayed had it not taken place when it did. The Great Eastern came back with some two thousand tone of coal on board, so that the search might have con tinued some time longer ; but all agree that both in weather, in the change from one part of the line to another eighty miles from it, and in the final triumph, the soundest skill and judgment waited' . upon good fortune. One day during the ' search Mr. Canning was startled by Cap tain Moriarty quietly whispering, " I'm sorry to disappoint you ; but what you're doing now's no use." A strong current had set in, and the buoys placed to mark the line of the cable for grappling, had drifted 17 miles, and on observations being taken, the Great Eastern was shown to be this distance from what she was vaguely seeking. The announcement of this mishap was of course fol. lowed by an instant change of spot, and added one more illustration of the extreme delicacy of the work. The Bishop of Newfoundland joined the party at Newfoundland, and arrived here in the Great Eastern. We are authorised to contradict the statement whichhasappeared in severalof the newspapers, and which we copied from the Globe, that Lord North bniok was on Tuesday last sworn in as a member of her Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council.

Lord Randolph Churchill, Pc. MR. EYRE.—Sir Arthur Hallam Elton writes to the rinses :—" Properly speaking, the Jamaica con troversy has been exhausted by the report of the com mission, the debates in parliament, and the comments of the press. The weapons, indeed, with which Sir S. Baker has armed himself, and which he flourishes in the columns of the Times of to-day with an air of lofty invincibility, are, for the most part, the broken relics of • battle that has been decided Few would withhold from Mr. Eyre due credit for paral)sing, ea Sir S. Baker terms it. the outbreak at one blow.' That is not the ques tion. The question is whether seal, energy, and ability in suppressing a dangerous outbreak can thenceforward release a governor from the duty of respecting( law and justice, and of exercising self-restraint in the infliction of punishment. I shall not attempt to criticise Sir S. Baker's views of the character and prospects of the African race, with which he is so familiar. I will only observe that if the coloured in habitants of our colonies can only be held in subjection by acts of lawless cruelty, debasing alike to those who inflict and to those who suffer, the sooner we relinquish the attempt the better. The most solid advantages may sometimes be too dearly purchased. I have, however, more faith in my countrymen, and more hope of the black race, than to believe such 's dilemma will ever confront us. I wish now to explain to Sir S. Baker, and to those who think with him, that it is possible for an Englishman to recognise many good qualities in Mr. Eyre, and feel sorrow for him personally, yet be firmly convinced that to ex onerate him from blame on the strength of those good qualities would be • policy alike feeble and disastrous. We are told that it is cowardly to strike Mr. Eyre now that he is down.' For my own part I feel the strongest reluctance to say •• hostile word against Mr. Eyre. But when, instead of being ' down,' Mr. Eyre is lifted by well meaning friends to • conspicuous pedestal, as an English worthy, a model of • wise, strong-beaded, impartial governor, I call to mind the cruelties inflicted after the outbreak in Jamaica had ceased, both on the innocent and the guilty, and without passion or animosity—rather with sorrow and reluctance—ern compelled to take a side, and protest against • course that I believe rudely jars against the moral instincts of the nation at large."

K Raw lins in the chair, to consider the advisability of inviting to a public banquet Captain Anderson, of the Great Eastern, and the gentlemen connected with him in laying the Atlantic cables. The chairman stated that they had com municated with Sir Stafford Northwite, the President of the Board of Trade, who had promised to preside at the proposed banquet, if it could be arranged' to take place on Monday, the lit October. On the motion ' of the chairman, seconded by Mr. P. H. Eathbone. it was raeolved that the banquet should be fixed for that date, and that the general purposes committee should be requested to carry out the necessary arrangements. Mr. Clark said that the matter had been most favourably re ceived on 'Change, and several gentlemen had expressed to him their willingness to act as stewards. The Secretary then read the draft of an address to be presented to Captain Anderson, and it was resolved that Captain Anderson should be communicated with to-day, to ascertain when it would be convenient for him to receive the address on board the Great Eastern. THE ATLANTIC CABLE OF 1865. The following is the continuation and conclusion ' of the diary published in the Express of Sep tember 10 : Friday, Sept. 7, Noon.—The progress of the ship and the paying out of the cable since Tuesday last have been in every way satisfactory. Last night a congratulatory telegram mine to Mr. Cyrus Field from Mr. Low, president of the New York Chamber of Commerce, requesting him to send a message to be read I st a meeting of that body held to-day. It was thought right to send a reply in the names of the directors on board woo have accompanied the expedition. It was in the fol- lowing words ' The undersigned directors on board the Great Eastern send their greetings to the New York Cham ber of Commerce, and take advantage of the success which bee crowned the efforts of the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company to recover the cable tempo rarily lost last year, to convey to them through it and the throlaid in July last, the hope generally entertained ughut the United Kingdom that the telegraphic conueuuication now established between that country and the United States will tend to promote peace and harmony between them. (Signedt—Deal. Gooch, chairman of Great Ship Company, and director of the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company and of Aoglo-American Com pany ; Aug. T. Hamilton, Cyrus W. Field, directors of the Atlantic Telegraph Company and Anglo-American Telegraph Campany." The . Medway has just been de , vistaed to look for the Terrible whom we expect is a few hours, as she left St. John's leas night. The weather is very fine, and the quite smooth. We hope to be well up the bay by 12 o'clock to-morrow. Saturday, Sept. &—lt was not until 5 p.m. yesterday that the magnolia= made out the smoke of the Terrible on the horizon; and on aiming on deck after dinner we sew her plain enough, and close near her the Mantaretta Stevenson. At 8 o'clock it boat was sent from the latter m utt with Mr. Kerr, R.N., who was to pilot„ up the My, sad the Terrible sent a boat with ear lenses which had salved by the last mail By 10 p.m. we sew tame beer of Catalina awl Beenvista, on the siorthma Awes of the =teases to Trinity Bay, and Batalien en isa southern side. It (widened calm all night. Thin morning • glorious sunrise welcomed us into Trinity Bay whose broad waters were as still and placid u a lake ; and as the morning light became more distinct, the whole cable squadron were well together. Her Majesty's shfp Terrible, her Majesty's ship Lily, with his Excellency the Governor .of Newfoundland and suite on board, the Medway, and the Matgaretta Stevenson, and the Hawk formerly her Majesty's ship Plover, from St. John's, with a large party on board, joined the Beet, and we proceeded on until 6 o'clock uninterruptedly. At that hour the wheels of d the suddenly Great Eastern were stopped, the alarm • " fault " in the cable having been made from the eleoni cian's room. While • messax4r= e lralentia was being received, the spot of light from the scale of the galvanometer, indicating • dead earth." Instruc tions were speedily given, and the cable was cut immediately forward of the paying-out machinery, and tested through a wire leading to the testing room ; the result of which was, a declaration on Mr. Smith's part that the fault was not far of. He next tested the sea end, and very much to his own gritifieation, as well as to the joy of ever/ one on board the ship, It was reported to be perfect. Valentin, upon being calle a il ie ts.ve an immediate reply. Communication was now stn in order to make a splice with another length of ein the after-tank, and in about half an hour it was completed, and the ship on her way up Trinity Bay, Heart's Content being distant 13 miles. The discovery of this halt was instantaneous, and showed the great practical utility of Mr. Willoughby Smith's new testing arrange ment, which has already been described. We went on paying out until 2.20 Greenwich time, or 10.45 ships time, and shortly afterwards the Terrible's pad dle-box beats, under the command of Lieutenant Garth, First-Lieutenant, andLientenant ArundeU, were under the stern of the Great Eastern. The cable was then cut and banded into his charge to pass to the Medway, on board of which wee coiled the then end. The big ship, having now completed her work, steamed slowly into the harbour of Heart's Content, followed by the Terrlble, Lily, and Mar -1 garotte Stevenson. The splice took about two hours Ito make on board the Medway, and at 3 p.m. (ship's ties) she had arrived in the harbour, and anchored opposite the Telegraph-house. The shore end was DOW passed to the boats of the Terrible, under the immediate superintendence of Mr. Canning, chief engineer, Mr. Cli ff ord, and Messrs. Temple and Lou dons. hortly after four o'clock it was landed amidst the enthusiastic cheers of those who were gathered about the beach, a royal salute being fired from the Terrible, Lily, and Great Eastern. Passed up from the shore in the trench leading to the Telegraph house, the end was speedily handed into the instrument room and the connexions made. The table crew were loud in their congratulations to their chief , Mr. Canning, and be and his able assistan ,t Mr. Cli ff ord, had to submit to the process of being chaired around the large space adjoining the Telegraph-house, where the end was coiled. r. Field received a similar honour. The Governor, the Lord Bishop of Newfound land, Mr. Gooch, Captain Hamilton, Mr. Field, and Mr. Deane were in the operator's room, and the first message having been sent, and en answer received from Yalentis, a loud cheer was given by those assembled there, his Ex cell ency and the Bishop saying • few words appro priate to the occasion. An address of congratulation from the Commercial Society of St. John's was presented to Captain Anderson, Mr. Canning, Mr. Gooch, Mr. Field, and the principal executive officers engaged in the cable expedition, to which a suitable reply was given, and a larp party of ladies and gentlemen were entertained on board the ship. AU night Mr. Laws, of Mr. Latimer Clark's electrical staff, was engaged in testing the cable, Mr. Lati mer Clark himself being similarly occupied at the Irish end. Mr. Gooch sent the following message to Lord Stanley:— " Mr. Gooch has the pleasure to Worm Lord &mild that the cable of 190 was recovered from the bottom of the Atlantic on the second of this month, and has been safely landed to-day in Heart's Content, the recovered cable being in the most perfect condition. U. also takes this opportunity of saying bow much all men engaged on the undertaking were gratified on receiving a newspaper to day to see the kin d reference made to their e ff orts in her Majesty's speech on the closing of parliament." Sunday, Sept. 9.—Shortly after breakfast this morning, Mr. Gooch and Captain Hamilton went name to the Telegraph-house, and the test messages required by the contract between the Anglo-American Telegraph Compaq and the Atlantic Telegraph Company were sent. This official act being completed, the line was formally handed over to the Anglo-American Telegraph Coded. The " Blue Peter" was now seat up to the fore of the Great Eastern and everything being in readiness, Mr. Halpin was again seen on the bow superintending the weighing of the anchor. But this time he was doomed to a disappoint ment of a very peculiar kind. When the anchor stook came up to the surface of the water, it was found to be minus the anchor itself. So the big ship had lain quietly all night in the harbour, where it blew half • gale of wind, and upon looking at her position, she did not appear to have shifted a yard. The anchor was one of Tretman's. lAt three p.m. we were under weigh amidst the cheers of the Terrible and Medway repeated over and over again. Mr. Cyrus Field, on leaving the ship for the latter vessel, in which he goes to lay the sable from Cape Ray to Cape North, was heartily cheered by the whole crew. There is every probability of the weather being tine. All on board are looking forward with happiness and pleasure to meet their friends in England, and feel proud in having been identified with an enterprise which will be ever memorable in the history of the world. APPOINTMENT OP BOROUGH MAGISTRATES. (From the Liverpool Mercury.) What will the intelligent foreigner who is always amongst us taking notes think when he hears that the Secretary of State for Home Affairs in England, in search of the two best and most fitting men for Liverpool borough magistrates, has let the rays of his lantern rest as two persons conspicuously connected with the recent election scandals' It seems incredible, but it is so. The revela tions elicited by the bribery commissions which are now sitting in different parts of the country, and at Lancaster among others, have been considered (we had nearly said in all quarters) as something like a national disgrace; bet, even before they are completed, we hear of honours being thrust on theft by whom, or on whose behalf, offences against law and political morality have been committed. Actually Mr. H. T. Wilson —who, on his own evidence, as given the other day before the Lancaster commissioners, empowered his " captains " to pay 101. a-pieos for votes—and Mr. Edward Lawrence, the gentleman on whose behalf the money was expended—have been picked out from all other men to be made borough magistrates of. If the ap pointment had been accompanied with a gold medal for extralegal services at the Lancaster elec tion, Mr. Walpole could not have more distinctly expressed approbation of political practices which even those who are not altogether unaddicted to them usually consider it decent to reprobate. We cannot call to mind an appointment involving so shameless and cynical a defiance of public feeling and opinion. We should not be surprised if even Mr. Wal pole's lucky proteces themselves were a little scandalised as well ae surprised by the good fortune which has come to them at this particular moment. It remains to be seen whether so gross an outrage done to political morality and propriety will not have to be un done again in deference to the public indignation which it will, we trust, not fail to excite. Certainly, if the nomi nation of Messrs. Lawrence and Wilson to the Liverpool bench is allowed to stand, it will be no small misfortune for the Derby government.

THE ELECTION COMMLSSION& =GATE. The inqtdry was resumed yesterday. Job Heath Apted said—At the election in February, 1858, I supported Sir H. Rawlinson. At first I had a favourable impression of Mr. Hotlines, for his prinnples agreed with mine, but he told me he meant to buy the borough whether or not. He said, " We shall be sure to win ; we have got money, and mean to use it." (Laughter.) There is not true that be ever o ff ered me any money. I from him beanie I thought it was an impudent thing for him to say, hennas there was no money that could lesy l zvon, and I considered that others were as aa pure m i. (Roars of laughter.) Mr. Sergeant O'Brien—l wish you would confine your purity to yourself. (Continued laughter.) Mr. Allen—Do you now think that was an impudent • , thing for Mr. Doulton to ay ? I Witnese—/ think the issue proves that. Out of 116 persons who voted for Mr. Doulton 70 votes were pure. Be could not with all his money buy more than 36 or 40, And I should say the MOO thing of any man =W. ' (Laughter.) Mr. Allen—Then I give you up. (Much laughter.) _ Mr. Serjeant O'Brien —'You don ' s think money would have any int:Menem ? Wltasse—l never said that, but that it has not influence to buy this berolfgh. I think Mr. Gower committed a. great carer at the last election. Instead of wain John • agents, and desiring us to " put on" a few men, lie weelb most incautiously and injudiciously to a public meeting. and told all the people there that they should be paid for their lemur., I believe that =Out 40 people came to me next day, etatine, that they had done so much wank and that Kr. Gower had expressed a wish that they should be d. William Woodman, examined by Mr. Smith—l see a bricklayer and builder. At the Int election I voted for Mr. lUchntletes. • I had been acting as messenger under Hiahoila for Mr. Monson. I charged 3W. for my walk as messenger, and was paid two or three days before the elec tion by Ifichelh. Jabot Tyrrell, examined by Mr. Smith—l keep the Queen Vietorin beer shop. I voted for Mr. Morison at the last election. A few days after the election Thos. Jordan left Lii. at my house. He told me who I waa to pay it to, or I should have kept it myself. (Laughter.) It was to be paid to my sons and Thos. Funnell. The Momon party had two little bits of meetings at my house, and mime - refresh meets were wombed which were paid for by Jordan. I received from him 101. for the are of my house. I made eat no bills. It was all chalk work. (Laughter.) When the Wilkinaon party were at my house in 1863 I did not make much out of them, for some of them was teetotalers. ',Laughter.) Adjourned until this day. LANCASTER. The inquiry was resumed yesterday before Com' I:airtime= Barstow, Newton, and A. S. Hill. . _ _ H.

I produce the memorandum book to which Mr. John Law rence referred in his evidence, and which he called the balance book. I have never been told that money was advanced by the firm for election purposes. Mr. Trowels is our managing clerk, and on the llth of July I gave him 2,0001., partly In bore and partly in gold. An entry of the trituration appears in the balance book. Wm. Connor, steam ship manager, of West Derby, Liverpool—l was asked by Mr. Lafone, with whom Ide business, to come over here and samba in the election. I came over on the night before the nomination, and saw Mr. IL T. Wilson at the King's Arms. I saw him again in the oommittee•room on the day of the nomination, and went by his directions to see Mr. Barker. Mr. Barker gave me 4001., with which I returned to the committee room, when I was instructed to go with six or eight men to Morecambe, and to distribute the money u they directed me. Cl. T. B. Preston, wine merchant, of Liverpool, ex amined, said—l was staying at Mel Grange during the election, and canvassed with Mr. Fenwick and Mr. fichaeider. I had no conversation with them on money matters. I did not bargain for or buy any votes. When I heard that money was going I refused to have anything to do with it. I may have taken one or two men to the poll, but I did not pay them or act as stakeholder. The inquiry was proceeding when our parcel was despatched. Mr. Coulston, the manager of the Lancaster bank, L wt•oee name has often been referred to in the course of the • inquiry, died yesterday. TOTNES. The inquiry was resumed yesterday, Mr. Bets in the chair. After the despatch of our Tuesday's parcel the following witnesses were examined : Smith, a railway inspector, stated that he was offered 1001. in 1862 by F. Evans, but ilia not get any. Had 301. from F. Evans in 1863 for voting for Dent. Had been told by Mr. James, the station master, that the employes of the company might vote, but they were not to take any money. Witness refused to take the V/. when Evans first offered it to him, but Evans took it to his house, and told witness he bad left it there. In 1865 witness had 411. left in his house by Frederick Evans. Witness would not vote because Evans bad left the money. The Chief Commissioner—Why did you not return it !-- I was not going to take that trouble. If people will leave money about in that way they must not expect to have it book. Samuel Reeve stated that he had voted at the last elec tions for the liberals, and had never received any money for his vote. The Chief Commissioner —What did you do with the three 201. notes that your son's wife gave yon!—l let 'en have it back again. I changed one of the 201. notes at the Plymouth-inn, and Laid my workmen with the money. I afterwards repaid my son. I changed the second 201. note about three weeks after I had changed the first, aid the third perhaps a month after that. I have repaid the whole of the money to my son. I have done work for which Mr. Chaster has paid me. Mr. Chaster advanced me 501. three weeks ago on my promissory note. I asked him for money for the work I Lave done to the sehooL He said he could not let me have any for the school, but he would let me have some ou his own account, I went with John Elliott to try :old get my son to vote for the I first went to my son alone. I never knew my son had any money till I got the three 20/. notes. My sou 's wife did not say where she got the money. I was never offered money by the liberals. I was uff erect 1001 . to vote for Mr. Dent in 154,3, hut I voted f o r Mr. Fender. Did not ask for any money from Mr. Pande. Jane Smith, wife of the railway inspector, stated that when Evans left the 30 /. he said , " something for you." Witnees refused to take it, but Evans said, • Non sense, don't be a fool," and witness put the money in her pocket. The sum brought by Evans in 1865 was not 451, but 351. John Parnell, nurseryman. was next examined—He went to a voter named Henry Crawford, in 1863, and offered him 501. or 601. for his vote, but Crawford said that was no good. Might have offered him 1001. Was not authorised by any one to make that offer. William Krapsnan said he received 101. in 1850 for voting for Dunn. Robert Page paid the money. Thomas Michel more (the Duke's steward) told witness be must vote for Mills and Gifford, Witness said, " That's putting the screw on a little too tight. I promised when I took the house I would give one vote for the Duke's interest." Thomas Michelmore replied, " Yon must give us both." After be had voted witness had notice to quit, and was turned out. Witness voted for Dawkins and Pim at the last election. Did not get a farthing for that vote. William Collard, a clerk in the office of the Duke of Somerset, was called before the consmiairioners and in structed to produce all the books relating to the Duke's affairs from 1860 to 1865. John Light, schoolmaster, stated that he did not vote in the Dent and Seymour contest, because a promise made to find his son a situation was not kept by Sir. Miclielmons. The situation was to have been in the dockyard. In 1863 he went to Exeter after John Heath bad been to his house and left 251. Mr. Heath also gave his daughter 51. In 1862 witness bad 30/. fur voting for Fender. In 1859 wit ness received 301. from a man named Worthy, who had it from Mr. Parnell, the present postmastr. Voted for Mills and Gifford, the liberal candidates. In 1857 witness had 5/. brought to him by his son. That came from Par , nell, and was given for voting for the liberal candidates. Was offered 1001. by Screech in 1865, but refused to take 1. Witness had 451. paid to him by Thomas Worthy in 066. That was after seeing Mr. Windeatt, who shook hands with him and thanked him for the "honest" vote he had given at the late election, and told him not to go out of the town till some one had called upon him. Wit• ness had been paid for his vote for councillors. Onee bad 10e. for a monisipal vote. At other times he had only bs. or 2s. fsi. Thomas Mitchel said he was formerly a tenant of the I Duke of fiemowesst, sad received notice to quit after the • year 1863, when witness voted for Dent.
