ELECTION COMMITTEES.
BEWDLEY.

(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of Saturday.)
Edward Price, an elector of Bewdley, residing at
Stourport, stated that on the Monday previous to the
election a fly was sent to Stourbridge to bring himself
and his wife to Mr. Carter's :house, about a mile from
the town of Bewdley. While they remained there
everything they wished was brought to them from an
inn at Bewdley, and sometimes they had as much as
two bottles of brandy a day. On the Tuesday
his wife wanted some few articles, and in the
evening a dress, some stuff to make caps, and
two handkerchiefs were given to her. After
that he expressed some doubts as to what he was to get
for his vote, in consequence of which Mr. Ireland called
upon him, and agreed to give him 151. for the vote. On
the night before the election he was taken to the George
Inn at Bewdley, and 'coked up in a room along with
other voters. They had plenty to eat and drink all
night, and the next morning they had a capital breakfast
before they went to poll. He voted for Mr. Ireland,
and immediately afterwards Mr. Banks took him to a
private room and gave him three 51. notes.
The Committee adjourned at four o'clock till eleven
o'clock on Monday morning.

FATAL ACCID ENT ON THE CASHEL RAILWAY.—
A melancholy a( wident occurred on Sunday between
Ballybrophy and I Enocknahaugh. In the latter place an
immense abyss ha a for some months baffled the utmost
efforts of the ongir leers, and labourers are employed every
day in the week iit an attempt to fill it up. A number
of " lorreys," or timber wales, were on the rail on Mon-
day, and the tim' Jer being unfastened, the beams upset,
and two brother s, who had been sitting on them, were
cast with terrific; -force upon the line and instantly killed

glad to observe that the town council have at length
coma to the wis e resolution of not going to Parliament
to dissipate the it funds in a contest with the North Bri-
tish Railway. That body and the above railway com-
pany have, tv the credit of both, and much to their mutual
advantage, re solved to submit their differences to the
final arbitrero ant of the Lord Provost and John Lear-
month, &cf., the chairman of the company.--Caledonian
Mercury.
