GALWAY WRIT.

Col. FRENCH then moved that a new writ be issued
for the town of Galway, in room of Mr. O'Flaherty,
unseated on petition.
Mr. G. CLIVE moved, as an amendment, that an
inquiry be made into the existence of corrupt practices
during the last as well as former elections for Galway.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND was
in favour of issuing a commission.
Mr. WHITESIDE asked whether it wal true that the
Mr. Browne reported to have taken an active part in the
bribery was a professor in Galway College, and if so,
whether the Government thought it was proper to con-
tinue that gentleman in the task of instructing the youth
of Ireland in corrupt przeticeA ?
Lord PALMERSTON said that was one of the cir-
cumstances the commission would inquire into.
After some further discussion, the amendment was
agreed to without a division.

COUNTY MAYO,
Col. FRENCH then moved a new writ for the county
of Mayo, in the room of Mr. Moore, unseated on peti-
tion. _ .

Mr. SCHOLEFIELD moved, as An amendment, that
the Attorney-General for Ireland be directed to prose-
cute the Rev. Peter Conway and the Rev. Luke Ryan
for their interference at the election, and that the issue
of the writ be suspended during the present session. He
nad from the evidence taken befera the committee that
these Itt,man Catholic priests had denounced the voters
for Col. Higgins at the altar. He did not believe that
the heads of the Roman Catholic Church encouraged
these altar denunciations. Thii, he said, was not a case
of Protestantism against Roman Catholicism, but a ques-
tion of freedom of election against priestly denunciation.
Mr. MAGUIRE asked the house to listen to him
while he endeavoured to defend his friend Mr. Moore.
He contended that the High Sheriff of the county, who
was the father of Col. Higgins, one of th candidates,
had exercised the grossest partiality in favour of his son
—instances of which he quoted to the amusement of the

house.
After A good deal of discussion,
Lord PALMERSTON said he would vote for the
amendment to prosecute the priests and suspend the
writ till the question of their guilt was determined,

which, he thought, would be, not to punish, but to pro
tect the el9ctors of May:).
Tile discussion degenerated, as usual in such cases,
into a question of personalities between the Attor,ey-
General for Ireland and Lord Claud Hamilton, who im-
peached the learned gentleman's impartiality.
On a divi,ion, the motion to issue the writ was re-
jected by a majority of 153 to 29.
Before the vote could be taken on the amendment Dr.
BRADY moved that the house do now adjourn, which
was negatived by a majority of 149 to 16. The question
to prosecute the priests was then put and carried with-
without a division.

The issue of the writ was suspended daring the pre-
set t session by a majority of 128 to 21.
In answer to Mr. SPOONER,
Lord PALMERSTON said the Government had re
°dyed no further telegraphic or other information from

The other orders of the day were disposed of, and the
house adjourned.

Country Market?,

LIVERPOOL-JULY 28.

The few millers and dealers at our Corn Exchange this,
morning were earnest buyers of wheat for the passing con-
sumption, and made a fair basiness at the full prices of
Tuesday last. In some instances an advance of 2d to 34'
per bushel for red wheat. Flour a dragging sale, anti
prices unimproved. Indian corn dull of sale, but quota-
tions unchanged. Oats, barley, beans, and peas were Wl'
altered in value.
