had they been known he would have sent them for
trial.

They were severally sent for six months' to the House

CANTERBURY HAI L.

The popular favourite Sam Cowell, whose talents as a
comic Ringer aro so well known as to need no eulogy on
our part, has been starring it in the provinces with that
success which his brilliant powers is at all times sure to
cimmand. Circumstances, however, require his attend-
ance in London for a couple of days, and his gratitude
to the excellent and highly esteemed proprietor of the
Canterbury Hall, as will as to his patrons, whose name
is " legion," will not permit Lis return to the provinces
without spending a few .boors in their agreeable com-
pany, Re has, therefore, at much inconvenience to
himself, announced his intention of delighting the fre-
quenters of this esta'elishment, which now ranks as one
of the legitima'e places of amusement in the metropolis,
with a few of "the songs they love." _ He will, there-
fore be at the Canterbury Hall this evening and to-mor-
row, and as his engagements in the provinces are likely
t) extend over a considerable period, we have no doubt
the opportunity of hearing him ' will be eagerly em-
braced.

MA NE Ws. (rins Day.)

CORN: EXCHANGE.

There was only a moderate supply of English wheat in
to-day's market, coastwise and by land carriags. For good
dry samples we had a fair inquiry, and Monday's prices
were well supported. Inferior kin Is, however,• met a dull
sale, at barely Monday's currency. The imports of foreign
wheat are 5,370 qrs. The amount of business doing in that
grain was very limited, but we have no changs to notice in
its value.
Barley was in short supply, and good request, at fully
late rates.
The transactions in malt were not extensive. Prices,
however, wero supported.
We were but moderately supplied with oats, which
moved off freely, at extreme currencies.
Both beans and peas were quite as dear as on Monday.
Flour sold slowly, at barely stationary prices.

ment in value of 2d per 8 lbs. Lambs, the show of which
was moderately extensive, were firm, at full quotations.
Prime calves were in• request, and 2d per 8 lbs. dearer.

ELEGTIOj CODEVIIITEES.—(This Day.

--- MAYO.
EXAMINATION OF Mt. M lIALE; ARCEIBTSFIOP OF TUAM.

The committee setotrileti morning at 11 o'clock,
and the examination of the Rev. Dr. Ml-lale was pro-
ceeded with. The greatest interest exihted, and the
room was densely crowded.
Mr. Smith said it wooli be recollected that at the
adjournment of the commit-cc. tie Archtiihop was
about to read a pistoral letter that had been issuel by
him to his elergy.—Tie•liroposed to commence this morn-
ing with the reading of :the doournent.
[The Afehbishop then reai the letter in question.

The doeument, alter relating to the condition of the
Roman C.itholic Church, and to the danger that had
beenentailed upon it by persons profeSsieg that religion,
went on to advise the people to conduct themselves in an
orderly and peAcealile Manner during the election, and it
also advised the .clergy to use their best endeavours to
procure the reture of the-candidate they:thought most
calculat•A to promote the intereets of the county of MaYO.
No parties were mentioned in the document by name.
At the denclesion' of the reading of the document, in
answer to questions net to Mr. M. Smith, the Arcs.
bishop said the paper from which I cut the slip I have
been reading, was the Dublin 'Freeman's Journal. At
the last election my csOniebti.viere opposed to those of
Colonel Higgins. In 1853 f veied, I arti riorry to -say,
for GOlonel.Higgins, but -at that time lagreed with him in
political-Opinions. In 1.852 Colonel Higgins was under-
stood to be a supporter of the repeal of• the Ecclesiasti-
cal Titles Bill, and a supporter of Tenant Right. At the
last election I had no-doubt Col. Higgins forfeited the
pledges he, gave in 1852. I considered as Col. Higgins
had stated that he was about 'to be come a member of an
independent Irish party, that he by that means had, to
a certain-extent, become a supporter of the Government,
as the party was about. to give it their support. I con-
sider my-clergy incapable of acts that have.been imputed
to them. II they had acted in such a way I should not
have failed to point them out, as I have a right to do. I
donot believethe accusations that have been made against
them. I never in the Course of iny lde eaid I would adopt and
secure the return of any candidate. On the contrary, I-I
have-always ea,4l that I would use my best endeavours
to secure the return of the best, candidate. I ao.not
believe my p esitiOn in the Catholic Curirch precludei me
from-exercising my right§ anacitizen. lam subject to
all the civil duties of a citizen, And therefore I consider
I have a perfect right to exercise my 'privilege of voting
at elections. • In 1852 I voted fieCol._Higgins and Mr.
Moore. I never saw the placard just put into my hand
dating the electi •13. It-was a forgery [the placard
in question was the one soliciting support for Colonel
Palmer,- and referred to deriuncietions from the altar].
I wa, not on the hustings on the day of election, but if
I had been asked to second Mr. Moore. I would have
done so.

By Mr. O'Malley—l. cannot tell now where the Free
man 8 Journal is Clat,l cut the pastoral from I have been
reading. I don't recollect seeing in the same paper the
resolutions referred to. yesterday for the clergy to give
the support to Mr. Moore to preference to Colonel
Higgins. I cannot say . they did not appear,
but I did not see them. I believe the pastoral
wat inserted in the Ittant Herald a week after
the election. It appeared in the freeman's Journal
first. I wrote a few private letters to my clergy. 'I
sent it in on Friday, and it appeared on Saturday.
By a Member—Then you believe all your clergy bad
a copy of the pastoral ?
Dr Mg-fah—Yes. I got the past Oral on the Mon-
day, but I was told that some people in Mayo got it on
Sunday. I wrote about three or tour private let= ors to
my cler4y. I wrote to Mr. Waldron. I did ❑ot
write to Mr. Morgan.
By Colonel North--The pastoral coal not be printed
in the Tuam Herald' before. It was. because 1 printed
it at alstlebar, and thou sent it to Dublin. There are
printing offices in CastlebPr, but they could not print so
expeditiously as the Dubiin printer..
By the Chairman--The printer said, it could not be
circulated so expeditiously as in Dublin. It was printed
on the Friday, as.tite polling was on the Monday.
By Mr..O.'Mal!ey—Was not the private letter you
wrote at variance with the pastoral.

The question was olijectea to, and was not answered.
By Mr. O'Mal!ey —I am under the impression that
Colonel Higgins is.a pledge breaker.
Mr. O'Malley—What vote ? ,
Dr. Mg-Isle—Ali his Parliamentary career.
Mr. O'Maley—Will you tell one vote I
Dr. M.`Hale—l object to all his voles.
Mr. O'Malley—l want you to mention one vote.
Dr. M‘Hate—l look upon such a vote as Colonel Rig-
gins gave on the tenant right question as a mockery, de-
lusion and a snare.

Mr. O'Malley—Then it was for supporting tenant
right tbe you opposed hith I
Dr. Mg:We—l believe that a person voting for, and
not supporting a ce tain taeu•sure, is a pledge breaker.
Mr. O'Mall -y—Where did Colonel Higgins break a
pledge.
Dr. M`Hale —I cannot say, but it is the opinion
of every person who did not not expect:place or pension
that be wtv a pledge breaker.
Mr. O'Malley—Da you think that all who voted for
Cul. Higgins voted with the expectation of patronage
or place l

Dr. M`Hale—That is my decided opinion.
Mr. O'Malley—D4 you know that any person to )k a
bribe on the occasion ?

Dr. M‘Liale—l,do. A. layman took a bribe of two
sovereigns. and then handed it to me.
Mr. O'Mall,y—D.) you consider a voter to be free
if he is uncontrolled by his landlorJ, bu; open to the
influence 44 the clergy I
Dr. M:11310—I do.

Mr. O'Malley—Then the influence you possess you
co, eider yin have a right to exercise I
Dr. M'flale—The influence I have used in elections
is an influence I •am prepared t) use on all occasions.
I reprehend fraud, violence, and drunkenness.
Mr. O'Mally—Do you not believe" that the Irish
peasant, in the exercise of his election franchise,
ought not to be guid ed by the priests.
Dr, M'Hale—lf he is in doubt bow to act, I think the
best person he can consult is his priest.
In answer to further questionscf Mr. O'Malley, the
Archbishop said—l. take my share in civil blirdens. I
pay the income tax under coercion—(laught,r)—and I
believe there is a fellow-feeling. I protested against the
payment of poor-rates, but I have to pay them. •

By Mr. Pullen—l don't recollect ever receiving any
complaint as to the conduct of the clergy at elections. I
never suipended a priest for his conduct at an election.
This question concluded the evidence of the Arch-
bishop, and he then left the committee-room.
Mr. 011.1altey said that was the close of the case for
the petition on that part of the case.
Mr. M. Smith said it had been intimated to him yes-
terday, that the examination of witnesses on the part of
the petition, would occupy at least two days, and he
had arranged accordingly. He was not now prepared
to go on.
After a shOrt"conversation the committee adjourned.
