KINSALE.

(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday )
Mr. Michael Cadogan, a fisherman residing at Kin-
sale, and employing upwards of fifty people, stated that
shortly after the last election he was told by one of his
workmen that the Roman Catholics who had supported
-I.lr. Guinness had been cursed and excommunioated
by the priest of the parish, Dr. Murphy. He, however,
did not believe it till he was told on Sunday morning
that a list of the parties who had been cursed was posted
upon the chapel of the parish. He immediately went
to the chapel and found that the information
was correct. There was a long list of names of
parties residing in Kinsale, who were stigmatised
as Pagans and traitors, and opposite to each name was
placed a sum which the paper set forth had !seen received
by the party named for voting or refraining from voting.
Opposite to his own name was placed the sum of 1001.,
but although he was canvassed by both sides he did not
vote either way. He went and complained to the priest
about this paper, but his reverence received him very
austerely, and talked vaguely of the eye of God being
upon their works. Shortly afterwards the paper was
removed, but it had been up quite long enough to make
all the parties acquainted with its contents. He
was one of the three parties, named by the woman
Ryan; but so far as he was concerned her evidence was
false. He never was in Sisk's public-house in his life.
Mr. Timothy Flym, a house-carpenter, carrying on
Lusiness at Kinsale, stated that he was proposed as a
candidate at the last election; but he retired Irom the
field in favour of Mr. Guinness, because ho had no
chance of success. He supported Mr. Guinness on
the principle that an open enemy was better
than a false friend. He saw the list alluded
to by the but witness, and afterwards hoard
the priest, Murphy, denounce some of the voters
from the altar. He told the people that tho Bishop had
refused to listen to the complaints of some of his
parishioners, and was determined to support him in the
course he was pursuing, adding, " I will pursue them
through life to death. I will refuse them Christian
burial when they die, and their ashes shall not rest in
their graves." -After this several poor creatures were
dreadfully persecuted, and, although he had no vote, he
could not pass through the streets' without being insulted
by some of the lower order of Father Murphy's flock.
Mr. Gamble,.a solicitor, of Cork, proved that he paid
tile rates alluded to in the petitioner's case, as the agent
of the parties from whom they were due.
Some other evidence of a similar stature was after-
wards put in, and the Committee then adjourned till
eleven o'clock to-morrow.
