The Committee of the House of Commons sr,
pointed to inquire into the allegations in the Stseif°re,
petition, met at three o'clock in the afternoon of The
ng,
day, the Ist instant. All the members were Prese
and they remained in deliberation for more than So 0,
hours. The preliminaries were arranged, and re :s
lutions were passed that the proceedings eb°
be strictly private, no counsel being allowed,
any reporter to be present except the official eb°Cea
hand writer. Mr. Atter, of Stamford, was apPet,n,,
agent for the petitioners, and Mr. Walford (the
quis of Exeter's solicitor) for his Lordship. The fore
nesses, who it is expected will be called separately ltri.
the Committee, are to be examined by the Monet
With a view to the convenience of some of the Woo
the investigation was deferred until Monday. „,„4.
19th inst.; for attendance on which day Parliarn.,eoS7o
summonses have been issued to Mr. Newcomb, Al„Se.
and returning officer at the last election; Mr.
steward to Lord Exeter at the time of the electione.A.
1830 and 1832; and Mr. Higgs, the present steWll—,
The:petitioners were ordered to supply to the cotegnire
clerk on Tuesday last, and also to Mr. Welf"u'
list of the ejected tenants whose cases are to be enter (3,
upon, with full particulars as to their resideS_
occupation, the property from which they were ejec,S` e;
when they received their notices to quit, &c. ; lik°wl,d
list, with similar details, of persons to whom threate...%-o
promises were made. This order, we hear, has threaten
complied with ; and the effect of it is to put Lord EVI,7:
and his agents in possession of the full particulars to 7,
urged against the unconstitutional interference ells
plained of. What sort of advantage will be taken
remains to be seen. The Committee will judge
dente on both sides; and all that is hoped and looked t°L
is that they will diligently search out the truth, andrs
port accordingly. It has been whispered among sorts
parties who assume to be well acquainted with Poo!.
mentary tactics in such matters, that the business of to:
Committee will be treated in a party or political rstbe.t
than in a judicial light, and that the composition of it
unfavourable to the cause of the petitioners. We c&
hardly credit such a rumour, notwithstanding it is sr
sorted that the chairman (Sir T. F. Lewis) is an inti'
mate friend of Mr. Harries. We are inclined to hoe
that the inquiry will be conducted in a manner consistent
with truth and justice.—Stamford Mercury.
RATE-PAYING CLAUSES.—Lord J. Russell, shore,'
