ELECTION COMMITTEES—This Day.

GALWAY.

The committee resumed their inquiry in reference
to the petition against the return of Sir Rowland
Blennerhasset.

Mr. Stubbin said that his counsel had decided on
not calling evidence in support of his case, but that
he did not approve of that course.

Mr. Sergeant Ballantine said that, in conse-
quence of the course pursued on the other side, it
became his duty to sum up the evidence on the part
of his clients. He contended that if Sir Rowland
Blennerhassett were conscious of purity in his
electioneering proceedings, he would not have de-
clined pursuing the course adopted by gentlemen
whose seats had been disputed, and placing himself
in the witness box. It was a very curious fact that
when Sir Rowland Blennerhasset appeared in the
borough as a candidate the " impecuniosity" of the
voters disappeared. (Laughter.) The learned counsel
then referrred to the evidence
of Duggan and the
other witnesses called. _ _

Mr, O'Malley, Q.C., replied.

Tribunal, considering the proof of this fact conclu-

Acts 135 and 135 of the Penal Code, which impose
on any person passing forged foreign notes under
such circumstances a penalty of three times their
nominal value, and it accordingly fined him 6,480 f.,
and condemned him to pay all the costs of the pro-
secution.
