MR. P. O'BRIENI beg to ask the Attorney General whether, in the event of the man Deeming, alias Williams, charged with the murder of his wife at Perth, Western Australia, being found guilty there of the capital offence, he could be then taken to England and tried for the Rainhill murders, with which his name has been associated; is there any precedent; and whether he can cite a case?
§ THE ATTORNEY GENERAL (Sir R. WEBSTER,) Isle of WightI may say that no steps can be taken pending the proceedings in Australia, but in the event of those proceedings resulting in Deeming's discharge, there is power by the Act of Parliament to bring him for trial in this country.
