HOM3E OF COMMONS.—Tuts DAY.
The SPEA KER took the Chair at 12 o'clock.
23URIALS (IRELAND) BILL.
Mr. MON:SELL moved the second reading of this bill
the object of which was to remove certain restrictions
which at present existel in Ireland. By the law as
it at present stood a Roman Catkolic priest
or Dissenting clergyman was proventsd from performing
the Titer, of burial in parochial churchyards without the
consent of the incumb.mt, and it was to do away with this
practica that the bill was introduced.
Mr. NEWDEGATE moved that the bill be read a
second time that day six months, as it was but another
step to be given to Roman Catholics to the detriment of the
members of the Church of England. It was a measure in
his opinion which was brought forward in the hope that
the prcs3nt state of Ireland would prevent the henna re-
fusing its assent on the green I that if it did se it might
load to disturbance.

Mr. O'BEIRNE supportel the sicaad reading of the
bill.

introduced last year, and in regard to which the houso

Mr. FRE3 EIFIELD had an amendment to propose, but
if tho hon. gentleman would put a provision into his bill
tint nothing th3rein contained should affect the Act of
Charles 11. h 5 would withdraw it.

was reported without amendment.
The house then adjourned.

TILE FENIAN TRIALS.

(Continued from our First Edition)

To Mr. Baker Greene.—Had said before Sir
Thomas Henry that William Desmond was very
like the man who had fire) the barrel. Also said
the man who lighted the match had a red beard.
At Millbank had said O'Neil was the man.
To Mr. Baron Bramwell—Was sure that Barrett
was the man.

To the Lard Chief Justice—Saw that a reward
was offered the Sunday after the explosion. Could
not identify any one on the Saturday. It was after
the reward was offered that he identified him, but
had not thought anything about the reward.
The evidence of this witness was exc3edingly
contradictory, and it was only by a series of ques-
tions from the Lard Chief Justice and Mr. Baron.
Bramwell that his real meaning could be ascer-
tained.

Thomas Wheeler, a boy 12 years of age, iden-
tified Barrett as the man who had lighted the squib
i❑ the barrel.

By Mr. Baker Green—When taken to Bow-street
was told to pick out the man he knew. lle first
turned away without recognising any one.
To the Lord Chief Justice—The man lighted the
squib with a match. He struck two or three
matches before he got a light. llad a thumb and
finger blown off in the explosion.
John Smith, a lel Iliac years of age, gave evi-
dence to the same effect as the last two witnesses.
The man who put the squib in the barrel
Came down the court, and the box from
which he procutel the match to light
it was VICO VV:I to hi n =033 the road. The first
s wall not light properly, so the main threw
it away, an I witness picked it up. lle ran away,
and the explosion shortly afterwards occurred.
James Cape, warder in the tiouse of Detention,
was with the prisoners, amongst whom was Burke,
at the time the men were exercised on the 12th of
December. At a few minutes after four
o'clock a white india-rubber ball was thrown
into the yard from Corporation-lane.
While Burke was in his charge, he was
visited daily by the woman Barry. She used to
bring him food and underclothing, and take away
his dirty clothing. It was his duty to examine the
parcels carried in and out.

The attorney-General was examining the wit-
ness as to something which he had discovered on
one occasion in some stockings brought for Burke,
when an objection to -the evidence was taken by
Mr. Baker Greene.

The nature of the evidenc3 wAs made known to
the Lord Chief Justice in writing, and having looked
over the document, his Lordship said he should
wish to consult Mr. Baron Bramwell, who had left
the bench.

The Court then adjourned, the jury being locked
up for the third night.

THE FENIANS AT B UCK INGHAM

PALACE.

EXAMINATION OF THE PRISONERS THIS
AFIERNOON.

The two men who were apprehended on Monday
undercertain suspicious circimstauces were placed at
the bar bdfore Mr. Vaughan this afternoon, at Bow-
street Police-court. They gave th 3 names of
Edward Barry and Michael O'Keefe.
They were charged with having in their pos-
session an explosive substance with intent to com-
mit a felony.
Police-sergeant Campbell said I am a sergeant
in the police, and in acslardance with directions from
Inspector Williamson I went to Buckingham Palace
about 8 o'clock on Monday night. I saw the
two prisoners under very suspicious circumstances.
O'Keefe had a basket on his shoulders. I asked
him what he had got, and he said he did not
know. I told him I should take him j into
custody when a scuffle took place, and he
(Campbell) had to draw his, revolver. The pri-
prisoner, O'Keefe, struggled very much. Langley
took Berry into custody. The prisoner was
told he had Greek fire with him, but he said he did
not know what the hamper contained. The
basket, it was found, had in it a tin can
which would contain about two quarts of anything.
Langley took Barry into custody after resistance.
Inspector Williamson—l am an inspector of
the detective police force. I despatched the two
officers to watch the neighbourhood of Buckingham
Palace, I gave directions for the prisoners to be
taken into custody, and after that was done the
hamper was taken to St. George's Barracks.
prisoners having been secured, the basket

once came from it that water 1111.1 to be procured
to extinguish it.

custody for cKaunnation.
Mr. Vaughan—Do you know either of the
prisoners ?
Inspector Williamson—Yes, sir. I know Barry
to be a member of the Fenian Brotherhood, and I
have now to ask for a remand, in order that the
contents of the case may become known.

Mr. Vaughan—Certainly. The prisoners are
remanded.

O'Keefe and Barry seemed to treat the matter
with indifference, but on their being conveyed to
the van at the close of the examination a great
crowd which had collected iu the front of the court
received them with hisses and groans.
