After the transaction Of some unimportant business
Kenealy rose, and moved that Royal Commits
sion be appointed to investigate the circumstances
attending the Tchborne trials. In powerful speech
in support of his resolution, he alluded to the grow
ing disafeetion at the result of the trials and the
manner in which they had been conducted by the
bench. Nothing short of a Royal Commission of in
quiry would content the people of England, who
convinced that justice had not been DONE He stated
that he had received many letters from Americans to
the same effect. The discomfort had grown into a
torrent, which was pouring the land. The late
Ministry partly owed its downfall to its conduct in
regard to the TichbOrne case He asserted that he
had positive proof that Chief Justice Sir Alexander
cockburn, in society, while the trial in progress,
said he would give the claimant fifteen years impris

He spoke severely of the Pittendreigh forgeries
and stated the claimant unable to call wit
ness for lack of funds. Penalties for contempt have
been directed against side only. The witnesses
were broWbeaten, and Partially of the Bench was
patent throughout the proceeding. Keneay declared
he had sacrificed himself to his of honor and
duty, and had been irretrieyably ruined in his pro-

possible to predict the result if the Commission should
be refused. The defeat of the motion would spread
dismay in the country. He spoke three hours and
was followed by Whalley, who seconded the motion.
