On Thursday Mr. Cardwell told Mr. Charles Buxton, M.P., and
other members of a deputation which went to him to ask leave to send out a barrister to Jamaica, to watch the proposed Commission and secure full evidence being brought before it, that steps had been taken to appoint " excellent" men,—Mr. Russell Gurney for instance?—whose names would be a guarantee to the public of good faith, to the Commission, but he did not then reveal their names. He apparently made no objection to the wish of the deputation to send out a barrister who might have a locus stanch before the Commission, at least it has been announced subsequently to the interview that this step is to be taken.
