ELECTION COMMITTEES.
BELFAST COMMITTEE.
The Committee met yesterday at twelve o'clock, from
the adjournment on Tuesday.
A document was read by the Clerk, containing a de-
scription of a meeting of Conservatives, which was
stated to have been held at Belfast on the 18th of June
last, at which resolutions were passed to the effect that
the Conservative party had heard with satisfaction of the
arrangements which had been made by Mr. 111'Neil and
Mr. Campbell, for the purpose of having the late
election declared null and void, and that no contest
should take place at the next election in consequence of
those arrangements, but that one gentleman of each
party should be returned without opposition. They '
also undertook to repay Mr. M‘Neil the sum of money
which he had undertaken to pay the Liberal agent to
cover the expense of the witnesses who had been brought
to London. Lastly, as the late Members were entirely
ignorant of these arrangements, they should bb held irre-
sponsible for the payment of this or any other sums.
Mr. Emerson Tennent, who was present throughout
the proceedings, as on the first day, applied on behalf of
Mr. M`Neil, who was obliged to leave town, for permis-
sion to make some verbal amendments in the evidence he
had given on Tuesday.
The Committee, after a good deal of discussion, in-
formed Mr. Tennent that Mr. M'Neil might attend per-
sonally and give any explanation he might deem requisite.
Mr. JOHN BATES, an attorney of Belfast, who has
been appointed agent for conducting the -defence, was
then called in, and immediately applied to the Com-
mittee for a list of the charges, a statement of the per•
sons against whom those charges are to be brought, and
a list of the witnesses by whom those charges were to
be supported.
Mr. COPPOCR, the agent for the prosecution, objected
to furnishing the names of the witnesses. He did not
object to the other parts of the application.
The room was cleared, and, on being re-opened, the
Committee decided that Mr. Bates should be furnished
with a list of the charges, and of the persons charged,
but that they could not grant the names of the witnesses
by whom the charges were to be supported.
Mr. BATES then stated a difficulty he felt about giving
in the names of his own witnesses, as he could not be
sure but a communication might be made of them to
parties in Belfast.
The CHAIRMAN offered to sign blank summonses,
under the sanction of the Committee, the names to be
put in afterwards by the agent ; or, if stated to him,
he understook that they should not be communicated to
any human being.
After some conversation, the consideration of the point
was deferred till a subsequent part of the proceedings.
Mr. J. Campbell was then called, and stated that he
was a flax-spinner and elector for Belfast. He had
assisted in getting up evidence in support of the petition
against the return at the last election. He acted for that
purpose as one of a committee. The evidence was in
support of all the allegations of the petition—persona-
tion, intimidation, and bribery. He came to London on
the Wednesday the Committee met. A pT_epo.. al wasile
made to him for an arrangement by Mr.
eMndIN
