WARING, REPORT. tolutnnagfain submitting to the proprietors a concise but correct ac after tii° the Company's position, it is satisfactory , to the directors, cult, e c lap'se of several months of aggravated commercial dift daoiTo ° aring with peculiar pressure on every undertaking depen that, the application of surplus capital, to be enabled to state stalen-itth the exception of such a retarded payment of the last in a 5;. 7 1 . !as is necessarily consequent on the period, they have not th:lle . fact to communicate which can otherwise than strengthen nristosiitire confiden ce i n t h e u l t i mate d i stinguished success of the ne„„_,and Exeter Rail wa y, hi t h er t o enterta i ned by all who are res r't rated with its cheapness, its faciliti es , it s secur i ty, an d i ts oi arees. fullparticular facts establishing these advantages have been so fully de refr_.:reonstrated in their two former reports that the directors valn a_ , from repeating them ; merely remarking on the additional si essi ' they derive from the defeat and abandonment, during the last th e I l t ) , ss o f Parliament, of every competing line betwixt London and sieal tern Counties, and a moral certainty, arising both from phy the InPediments and the new requirements of the Legislature, that ~atroduction of any ether is effectually precluded. i i i_ltai r ce the last report two additional - contracts, extending to the ead to Bridgewater, in the village of Lympsham, have been tii"...ieve dint on terms advantageous to the Company, arising from '4.,a- ure of the ground. „mitt:. greater portion of the land is purchased on the 11 miles hi nl l l _, l ,,ed in the two first contracts ; and the contractor is availing gres tif the favourable state of the weather to expedite the pro ,* of the works. 'Plo lt s,-7, are, however, of the large amount of capital at present em °u yid 011 . the numerous and extensive railroads in progress through ava,;o.e.kingdom, and desirous of giving the greatest effect to the s urface means of the Company, by not operating on too large a e L at Nate a time, the directors—though fully determined to corn coo t ill , line to Exeter—have resolved to finish and open such por all i s of it, commencing with Bristol, as will enable them to secure `V et o al remuneration on the capital expended on its progress to a nd r" and Uphill in the first instance, Bridgwater in the second, geo, Taunton in the third, so that investment and return may, in a to 1 4 iliegree, keep pace with each other. They purpose, therefore, %m in s t the scope of this report chiefly to an exposition of such cir opin!tances as will best enable the proprietors to form a correct p o ,, ti i _ ° ° of the required outlay and ascertainable proceeds on these ~ ,,v t ts of their expenditure. tist.'abe es timates of their engineer, which have been hitherto so sa ,tassitthic'irridlYs borne out by the contracts entered into for upwards of of the distance to Bridgwater, and by the actual cost of elostd airea, iv purchased, warrant the directors in assuming that the atotic 'Pening the line to that port, including the stations, loco - engines and every other expense, will, at the outside, not ed thirty-fi; e pounds per share. Iltiri.stating the dividend to be reasonably anticiputed from this ex handiture, they are so fully sensible of the extent of prejudice they int'eereto encounter, arising less from the misrepresentations of the 4are 'tett, than from the inconsiderate assunaptions of a few who mincll,lltaeonainted with' the facts of the question, and the credence e d by the many to assertions to which they have never ct . the proof, that the directors would feel the declaration . of d truth itself to be unavailing, unless supported by that species an th 4l : 3 ll ,°t of evidence which they well know must remain unshaken by ,rieverest scrutiny. t ti l . l eY subjoin, therefore, as an appendix, an abstract, corrected co,oue present time, of the traffic, proved before the Parliamentary tratlatedroittee under the investigation of adverse counsel, and illus. • by such references as can leave little room for doubt in tatztids by to the influence of testimony. To those who, 14-,rzled abyss he celebrity which our great manufacturing towns t' obtained from the magnitude and productions, rather than th ° travelling wants and habits of their population, conclude that ' t ,".°, Must of n ecess it y create an exten t o f i ntercourse, for w hi ch " 41 be vain to seek a parallel in the other districts of the king inin•it will appear remarkable that the coaches at thi s ti me d a il y bet•wtxt London, Bristol, and Exeter, consider . ably . ex h eeed L .' entir e number plying between London and Thrilling am, J 'ter P° o l, and Manchester, before the opening of the Grand Ltan.tion Railroad. Yet such is the incontrovertible fact, as will 'elm by any one who takes the trouble to refer to the appendix ; t kl it i 3 on thi s plain ground, t oge th er w i t h t h e ac k now l e d ge d th e aPness which natural faciliti es g i ve t o t h e construct i on o f t h e nUt 'istol and Exeter line, that the directors feel justified in holing (2n to the shareholder s the expectation of a dividend of 13 per ce d nt. the outly before- men ti one d to B r id gwater. T o t hi s i t may b e '‘iled that it is the peculiar advantage of this line to open up new sourc es of Profit in its progress, at such short successive distances as : 11 1 rarely be presented by any similar undertaking. The comple p;tof loss than ten miles will enable the company, at an ample ducts o rt r °l ' included in the present or any estimate, to bring the pro vast coal-field into the city of Bristol, at a . charge of one cl ose P e r ton : twelve additi ona l m il es , which bring the line m i, ti t i e mouth of the Ax, and the natural harbour at Uphill 'mut e ), a line of communication betwixt the whole of the Wi f , \of Ireland (including, of coarse, the southern coast of sca r 3 / 2 and Bristol, and London, of which the most sanguine can yjoee'Y calculate the advantageseleven miles . more, bydear or j o g; the lin e to Bridgwater, will necessarily render it the me turn Nos. course between the Western Counties, and London, and the the the °ll gh, as the subjoined accounts will shew, the ou b tla on in hanks is beeoming heavy, the directors expect that the ala y n . c . e incr. aided by the instalment now in coucse of receipt, will h -tit the necessity, for some months, of a further call on the areholders jetiNsl°llst of the . permanent charges to which the undertaking is sub- Wouldaving been fixed under an expectation that the whole line all b F"nnaltaneously in operation—and, under the feeling that Possibl aestly e economy should be exercised—the directors have car dnee:, a pplied themselves to the subject of retrenchment, have -e -stseie7 se veral b ranc h es o f expen di ture , an:l propose to relinquish a th e fir 3 ' s . t. ° l the compensat i on , so lib era ll y vote d f or their services at general meeting. 4 r i ( C ll Y Wei rhino- therefore, even , consideration, whether of 6.114 „ -c or Privat e n b a'ture, which relates to this undertaking, the Iv i i r t, --°r s feel its vigorous prosecution to be their highest duty, and e eori la steadfast determination to fulfil it, cheerfully completion tot ° nee and support of all who are interested in its Signed, on behalf of the Board.

"I care not how I am physicked, so it be not by the adventure or a quack, but advice of a physician, wb• I am sure will prescribe no mere for me than may consist with my safety, and need d,th r equ i re ."— Ol d Ulvine. THESE LIVER PILLS are now very generally recommended by the Faculty as the best FAMILY APERIENT, a certain remedy for an INACTIVE LIVER, a safe and effectual Destroyer of Worms in Children, and as the Best Friend of the DYSPEPTIC or BILIOUS SUFFERER, whose usual symptoms are (some or all of) these—sick head-ache, giddi ness, flatulence, palpitation of the heart (when arising, as it often does, from INDIGESTION), pain in the Side and under the shoulder blades, distressing sensation of choking, oppression after meals, depression of spirits, and a yellow skin. The very first two pills generally afford such relief—such ease from every distressing pain that the patient is at once surprised and delighted. The medi cine is gentle, though certain in its benign effects. It contains no Aloes or Gamboge ; occasioning no Piles, nor any pain in its operation. Obstinate Sores heal under a course of it, and Eruptions of the Skin disappear. Taken a few alternate nights before a voyage, it greatly prevents sea-sickness. The late Dr. ARMSTRONG gave his unique prescription to the Proprietor (a cousin of Mrs. Armstrong) in 1827, for his wife, who was apparently dying of Liver Complaint, but has been ever since, with the occasional use of the Pills, in perfect health.

Committees had given decisions favourable to person ; in the situation of the present claimants, he must admit their claim. It was to be observed, too, that neither tiles. Commissioners nor the persons employed under them were under the control or influence of the Crown or Government ; and, further, considering that their office was compulsory upon them under penalties, it could hardly be imagined that the Legislature intended their disfranchisement, for it seemed contrary to law that persons should be compelled to accept an office which carried with it Parliamentary disfranchisement.—Claims allowed. THE EXETER•HALL CLAIMANTS. — On Saturday morn ing Mr. CRAIG gave judgment on the case of Mr. Adeney, and eighty-four other co-proprietors of Exeter-hall, but whose claims included those of 100 more owners, among whom were two Noblemen, half-a-dozen Baronets and Members of Parliament, several clergymen, and two ladies. The Learned Barrister delivered a long and elaborate judgment, in which, after citing a multitude of precedents and authorities, he concluded by stating that the claimants were not owners within the meaning of the Act. The claims were therefore disallowed. This decides against a number of other aspirants. The rest of the day was spent in revistng the list of the charities in the Fields, and it was not finished when the Court rose. This Learned Gentleman was occupied as on the pre vious day in going through the lists of St. James, St. Anne, St. George, and St. Clement Danes alternately. A num ber of persons were struck off, some as being aliens, and many for having demanded to be registered by the overseers instead of demanding to be rated and tendering the rate. Even though the landlord should pay the rate, as the Duke of Bedford does for his Covent-garden tenants, still the owner or occupier must have demanded to be rated, and have tendered his proportion, in writing, and personally, or his name will not be registered. The Learned Gentleman rose at two o'clock. Both Courts stand adjourned till Tuesday, when Mr. Craig will sit in St. Martin's Vestry - MOM.

The overseers objected to Mr. Beale and his co-lessees being continued on the list of voters for this division of th© county, on the ground that the chapel was within the bo rough, and could therefore give a vote for it. Judgment deferred. The Revising Barristers sat on Saturday in the Vestry hall, Camberwell. No ease possessing much public interest occurred. WANDSWORTH.—Mr. TURNER and Mr. BRETT, the Revising Barristers, sat at the Spread Eagle Tavern, in this village, yesterday, to revise the lists of voters for this division of East Surrey. (Before Mr. TURNER.) THE PUTNEY-BRIDGE CASE.—Henry Barkly, whose name was on the list of voters, in virtue of a twentieth part of a freehold share in Putney-bridge, was objecte to by the Liberals ; but the Messrs. Luttly and Meymott appeared to support the claim on the part of the Conservatives. It appeared that thirty-six other gentlemen were on the list of voters for Surrey, as shareholders in the same ['ridge. The same parties have also been on the list of voters for the county of Middlesex. They were objected to by the Liberals, but were continued on the list by the decision of Mr. Coventry, as reported in our paper of yesterday. Mr. Corner, however, felt that the right upon which the parties claimed was ❑ot sufficient to give them votes for East Surrey, and he accordingly objected to their being continued on the list of voters. Mr. John Blatchford, Registrar of the Putney-bridge, proved that Mr. Barkly was a shareholder of it. He stated that the first Act under which the bridge was erected, was passed in the year 1727, but that another Act, with more extended provisions, was passed in 1729. The objection was overruled. By this decision 37 names were retained on the lists. (Before Mr. BRETT. ) No case of any public iatcrest came before this gentle in the other Court. ------- -- The — Revising — Barristers will sit at Croydon this day. WEST KENT. This morning the Revising Barristers presided, as on the former day, at the Town-hall, Gravesend, and the proceed ings before Mr. Bosanquct excited much interest, as his decision affected hundreds of persons, some of whom claime to be upon the registry. THE GRAVESEND AND MILTON FREEHOLD INVESTMENT COMPANY. Mr. Henry Adlard, of No. 42, Hatton-garden, with 101 others, claimed to ,%ote in respect of " freehold land and houses" in Milton-park. The Claims were opposed by the Liberals. The notices of objection having been proved, Mr. John Matthews, the secretary and solicitor to the Company, was sworn, and stated that he knew the claimant, Mr. Adlard, who was a shareholder in the Gravesend and Milton Investment Company ; he held ten shares ; the estate of Milton park, which consisted of twenty-four acres of land, was purchased by the Company in the early part of 1836 ; there were several houses upon it. The pur chase-money for the estate was 21,0001. ; it was conveyed to Alderman James Harmer and Mr. John Smith, for such uses as they should appoint ; the deed produced is the deed constituting the Company. The deed was here read to the Court. It was dated 23d of June, 1836, and made between Charles Beckett and John Wade, of the first part ; James Harmer and John Smith, of the second part ; and John Matthews, of the third part. It recited that a contract had been entered into by the parties of the second part with those of the first part fur the purchase of Milton-park estate, woods, and fields, for 21,0001., and it witnessed that, in considera tion of that sum, Beckett and Wade did bargain, sell, and release to John Matthews, his heirs and assigns, all that piece of ground, with the chapel erected thereon, called St. John's chapel, and consisting of twenty-live acres, more or less, to hold it free from al taxes, upon such trusts as Harmer and Smith should direct and appoint. Mr. Matthews continued that he was solicitor to the contract, and that a fair marketable price had been given for the estate. The Company were several months ne gotiating with Mr. Beckett, as he for 4 1004 time held out for 24,0001, The deed of settlement of the company was next put in and read, It was dated the 21st of November, 1830, and made between James Harmer and eight others the direc tors of the company of the one part, and the several persons whose names were thereunto subscribed of the second part. It recited the objects of the Company, and the in creasing number of persons resorting to Milton next Grave send, and the demand for houses, and the purchase of the estate by the parties of the first and second part conjointly, which was made to ensure the shareholders of the Company a fair remuneration for their capital, and considerably to improve Gravesend and Milton. The capital to be raised was 60,000/., in calls of 51. each, and deposits of 2/. were to be made on the shares. The Company, which was to be known by the before-mentioned title, was to be managed by nine directors, each holding not less than forty shares. It also provided for the appointment of a treasurer, banker, and secretary, and indemnified the shareholders against all liabilities beyond the amount of their subscribed capital. The whole of the property was to be deemed personal estate ; 21,277 persons, or thereabouts, had paid deposits. Mr. Robert Coles Arnold, treasurer to the Company, was next called, and stated that he paid the purchase money for the estate ; 2,200 shares had been taken up, and 12/. 10s. per share paid on them. It was out of the subscribed capital that the purchase was made.

MIDDLESEX. Messrs. Covt toltx and TAMLYN held their respective courts on Friday, at the Sussex Arms, Hammersmith, to ,•vise the lists of voters for the parishes of St. Luke, Chel sea, and St Mary Abbott's, Kensington. No case of interest was decided. The list for the parish of St. Mary Abbott, Kensington, which came before Mr. TAMLYN, was not concluded. On Saturday Mr. COVENTRY and Mrr TAMLYN, the Revising Barristers, held Courts at the Sussex Arms, Ham mersmith, pursuant to adjournment from the previous day, for the purpose of revising the lists for the parishes of Fal ham, Hammersmith, Chiswick, and part of Kensington. (Before Mr. COVENTRY. FULHAM BRIDGE.—DECISION.—The above important case having been appointed for argument, the Court, on its opening, was much crowded. Mr. Henry Barkley, of Lime-street-square, who claimed as a freehold shareholder in Fulham-bridge, was opposed by Mr. Coppock, on the ground that the property was per ,onal, and not real. • Mr. COVENTRY, after al the arguments which had been read, was still of opinion that the freehold was clearly vested in the shareholders. Mr. Coppock would still contend it was not. They had only an interest in the tolls, and had no power to divide the shares. Mr. COVENTRT said they had, however, done so, and the act had been recognised, and they had voted. He did not see, however small the portion of a share might be, if it was sufficient to give a qualification of forty shillings, that he had any power to strike the name out. He did not doubt it was aniisdemeanour in any person to create votes for election purposes, but where property was not so divided, he thought the possessor had a clear right to vote. The only question was, whether they should vote for each county. H e must repeat, he could see no point which could raise a doubt on his mind. Mr. Coppock said if that was the decision of the Learned Barrister, he would at once come to the question of owner ship and value. Mr. Blatchford then proved that Mr. Barkley's portion was of the value of 31., and the claim was allowed. The whole of the other claims in respect of the same pro perty, thirty-eight in number, were then allowed, with five exceptions, the parties not having held the shares before the 30th of January last. The remaining cases on the Fulham list were then gone through ; after which the Hammersmith list was taken. Theodore Hook was unsuccessfully objected to by the Reformers. The Rev. Mr. Letwood, incumbent of St. Mary's Church, was objected to on the ground that his name had been added in writing to the list after it had been printed. The circumstances of his case were rather singular. It appeared that he at first sent in his claim to the overseers of the Hammersmith district, and they finding that his prir?- perty did not lie in Hammersmith, but in Fulham, sent his claim to the overseers for Fulham, who inserted it in their list after it was printed. The Fulham overseer having been examined, deposed that the name had been sent to him from Hammersmith ; and he wrote it on the list which he got printed before he affixed his own s i gnature to i t . Th e c l a i m was not sent t o him in the legal time, before the 20th of July, but he knew that jt had been sent to Hammersmith before that time. Mr. COVENTRY finally disallowed the claim. Yesterday the Revising Barristers for the county of Mid dlesex held their Courts at the Court-house, Marylebone, for the purpose of revising the lists of voters in respect of property in the parishes of St. James, Westminster ; St. George, Hanover-square ; St. Anne, Westminster ; St. Pancras, St. Marylebone, and Paddington. The results of the day's revision in Mr. CRAIG'S Court were : In the parish of St. James, Westminster.—Overseers' objections, 25 ; sustained, '25. Reformers' objections, 40 ; sustained, 7. Conservative objections, 12 ; sustained, 4. In the parish of St. Pancras.--Overseers' objections, 40 ; sustained, 30. Reformers' objections, 11 ; sustained, 0. Conservative objections, 13 ; sustained, 2. In the parish of St. Marylebone.—Overseers' objections, 32 ; sustained, 23 ; Reformers' objections, 21 ; sustained, 4. Conservative objections, 11 ; sustained, 7. In Paddington.—Overseers' objections, 2 ; sustained, 2. Reformers' objections, 5 ; sustained, 0. Conservative ob jections, 9 ; sustained, 2. (Before Mr. TAMLYN.) The only case of any importance which occurred in this Court yesterday, was one which was connected with the trustee question, on which Mr. Tamlyn had not yet, in any instance, pronounced his decision. The case was ono in which Mr. William Ewett had been appointed trustee of property, under a will, for the purpose of maintaining and educating the children of a friend of his. Mr. Ewett claimed to vote in right of his trusteeship. He was objected to by the Tories. Mr. TAML YN, seeing that the claimant was in full posses sion of the property of which he was made trustee, and that he had the full and uncontrolled disposal of its rents and profits, at present contented himself with deciding that the name objected to be retained on the list. The proceedings during the rest of the day were quite uninteresting. The results of the day's revision in this Court were as follows : In the parish of St. George, Ha nover-square—Overseers' objections 7, sustained 7 ; Re formers objections 10, sustained 4 ; Conservative objections 4, sustained 1. In the parish of St. Anne, Westminster— Overseers' objections 10, sustained 10 ; Reformers' ob jections 11, sustained 3 ; Conservative objections 28, sus tained 3.

" This novel will assuredly rank with the best of our works of fiction.

Henry Colburn, Publi s her, 13, G rea t Marlborough-street. WESTMINSTER. The learned barristers resumed their sittings this morn tug at the Sessions House, Westminster. (Before Mr. CRAIG.) Mr. John Hallmarke, of the firm of Hallmarke, Aide berte, and Hallmarke, coach-makers, claimed to be inserted in the register of St. Martin's-in4he-fields, in respect of pre tnises in Long-acre. The 'times of all the partners ap peared on two of the rates, but that of John Hallmark° was omitted in the other two. He, however, had claimed to be inserted in one of them, and it was contended by Mr. Score that the payment of the other by a check, signed by Mr. liellemarke in the name of himself and the other partners, was sufficient to entitle the claimant to be on the list. Mr. Trott arg ued that as this che c k was not written in the f o rm stated for the purpose of claiming, it could not amount to a claim, and as Mr. John Hallmarke was not rated, his name could not be inserted in the list. Mr. CRAIG said the case was an exceedingly difficult one, although it might be exceedingly easy to justify a decision ngainFt the claim. Under circumstances, he should decide in favour of the claim, though a contrary decision might vary well be qualified.—Claim allowed. The name of Mr. John. Gardner, 453, West Strand, was s,eces4ully objected to, on the scot and lot list, by Mr. Trott, on the ground that his name had been off the list for two consecutive years. It was proved, that although Mr. Gardner's name has been on the list for the last three years, it was off the list for the two years following the pissing - of the Reform Act. Mr. Gardner's name, however, as a householder is good. The name of Mr. Stevens Loneh was unsuccessfully ob jected to by Mr. Trott, on the ground that ho was not qua lified as a scot and lot voter at the time of the passing of the Reform Act. (Before Mr. MYLNE.) PARISH OF ST. JOHN. John Amner, and five other persons, claimed to have their names inserted on the register. It appeared that the claimants occupied separate houses, the rents of which were farmed by the landlord. They sent in Claims to be inserted on the list, but not to be rated. A. witness, however, stated, when he delivered the claim to be registered, he told the overseer's wife that the pdrties wished to be rated, Mr. MYLNR, having consulted with Mr. CRAIG, said that he and his Learned Colleague were of opinion on this novel case that the Act had not been complied with, inasmuch as sufficient notice to be rated had not been given. It was manifest that the Overseer's wife could have no authority to act officially for her husband as an Overseer. Claims disallowed. The Learned Barrister then proceeded to give judgment in the case of Richard Johnson and six others in the pa rishes of St. James and St. Clement Danes, who had becu objected to by Mr. Trott on the ground that they were collectors of assessed taxes, and thereby, under the 22d Geo. 11. chap. 41, rendered incapable of voting at elections for Members of Parliament. Mr. Rice and Mr. Wiggins had contended that these claims were good, inasmuch as the parties were appointed by the Commissioners of Assessed Taxes, who, being necessarily Commissioners of the Land Tax, were as much exempted, together with the perso em ployed under them, from the operation of the disfranalising clause in question. The Learned Barrister said that if be went strictly by the precise terms of the Act, and no deci sion of a Committee of the House of Commons had been come to on the point, he might, perhaps, have come to a different THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

Mr. Muira os'crved that he 11 , 1il proved .h .t the eni zant had 10 shares in the Company, on which 130/. had been pa, ,2 The Court cons;j flick ercd that a pri me case Lad been made out. Mr. Case then proceeded id read the circular from the Company which had been put in evidence, and in which. it was stated that the land actually leased produced hut 411. per annum, and that the extent of the profits could not km ascertained for another year. There was'also another curious paragraph in the circular, which he would read, as it might throw some light on this matter. Mr. Case then read—" The directors have taken the precaution to register the sharehold ers as entitled to votes for the western division of the county of Kent, a measure it is confidently believed of vast benefit to the Company go'nerally, as well as to the shareholders in dividually ; and will no doubt, as soon as the claims arc established, materially increase the value of the shares, and extend the influence of the Company."—(Much laugh ter.), He would next call the attention of the Court to the deed of settlement. The learned gentleman then read copious extracts from the deed, showing that the property should he deemed personal estate, and entirely at the dis posal of the trustees and directors. The Bth and 58th clauses of the deed declared that all the estate was invested in the trustees for the time being, and that it wee pur chased by them under the direction of the Board of D;;ec tors. The directors had the entire control over the shares, and no other parties but them were to incur any liabilities on account of the Company. They had also the power of suspending any one of their own body, and calling a meet irg of the pr o p r i e t ors t o h ave hi m remove d. The 59th and 60th clauses also gave the directors the power to make bricks, to let or sell the land, and do as they should think fit. Mr. Matthews—Yes, for the benefit of the Company, you should read to the end of the clauses. Mr. Case continued, that he would put in a deed, dated the 4th of February, 1837, for the purpose of show ing that Harmer and Smith conveyed a portion of this pro perty absolutely as their freehold. Mr. Miller—That I admit as broad]) as possible. Mr. Case—What ! without reference being had to the trusts at all ? Mr. Miller—Of course ; that's the reason the deed which was first read to the Court was made, investing Har row and Smith with secret trusts.- Mr. Case then ierit to the principle, whether the claim ant was entitled to be upon the register as a freeholder. After Mr. Miller had been heard in answer, Mr. BOSAN Q UET said he should reserve his decision. The case, as it will be seen, vitally affects joint-stock and other Companies. ROCHESTER, SATURDAY.—THE GRAVESEND AND MIL TON FREEHOLD INVESTMENT COMPANT.—This morning Mr. BOSANQUET expressed his readiness to give his deci sion in this case, when the utmost anxiety was evinced by those who are interested, not only in the Company, but likewioin the representation of this division of the county. The Learned Barrister said—l do not consider it neces sary for me to go through all the facts that have appeared before me ; they are so very numerous, and many of them extraneous to the subject. The two questions for my con sideration arc—first, what interest have the proprietors of this Company in the estate ? and, secondly, what is the value of that interest ? I take the shares at the value of ss. each per annum—for, in fact, it will be found that a dividend of 7s. on each share has been already paid ; but I cannot value them at that sum, as something must be thrown off as a profit derived from the capital used, and not thrown from the land itself. lam of opinion that all those who have eight shares are entitled to be upon the re gistry, and those that have a less number are not so entitled. Air. Adlard's name was therefore retained. The claim of William Major Wilson, of No. 54, Lom bard.street, London, was next gone into ; and it was proved that he held ten shares in the Company, upon which he had paid 121. 10s. on each. Mr. Case said he must press the Court to go into all the cases separately, in order that he might go further into the q testion of the value of the estate. Mr. BOSANQUET said he would not go further, Mr. Wilson's name was on the Register. He was only bound to inquire into his qualification. The time of the Court could not be unnecessarily taken up, as there was a con siderable deal of business to do, and so many adjournments had already been made, that it would require much exer tion to gt t through it by the 2-sth inst. Forty-three claims were then allowed ; thirty-three struck out for not having signed the deed of settlement ; and twenty-five on the ground of holding less than eight shares. (Before Mr. TYNDALL. ST. JOHN'S CHAPEL ON THE SAME ESTATE.-Arthur \Vilcoxon and the ❑ames of the other claimants in respect of this estate, were after a length)' argument retained. BOROUGH OF DOVER. DOVER, FRIDAY NIGHT, OCT. 7.—This morning the Revising Barristers for East Kent proceeded to trvise the lists for this borough, in the Town-hall here. Mr. CHASI-, BERS took the lists of freemen, and Mr. RYLAND took the remaining lists. There was no novelty in the few cases that came before the Court. BEDFORD BOROUGH. As may be expected from the result of the last borough election, the Reformers have exhibited the roost unwearied diligence in the Registration Court. On Wednesday Mr. BYLES and Mr. BIRCH commenced their sittings, which have been prolonged during the whole of to-day (Thursday), and are adjourned till to-morrow. The objections by the Reformers, though numerous, are well substantiated, while the Tories have had the effron tery to make 76 for which they had not the slightest ground, and which were therefore withdrawn previous to the first sitting of the Court. No cases of peculiar in terest, however, have occurred, with the exception of those below enumerated, and which appear important as affect ing the interests of Liberalism throughout the country. F. Palmer, Esq., the present Representative of the bo rough of Reading in the Liberal interest, claimed by Mr. Rogers as a resident freeman, and was objected to by Mr. agles, the Conservative solicitor, svho contended that he had not resided at Bedford a sufficient period dur ing the last twelve months to qualify him to vote in ac cordance with the 32d section of the Reform Act, which provides that freemen who have not resided in the borough fqr which they claim for the period of six months previous to the 31st of July shall not vote ; and as he believed Mr. Palmer had not been in Bedford for the last three years, he contended that his claim was invalid. Mr. Rogers, on the contrary, brought forward a witness of the name of Thomas Barringer, who stated that he was servant to Mr. Palmer and occupied the premises in his absence. In the month • of NovembeHast, Lady Madeline Palmer visited Bedford shire, and for several weeks in the course,of the month she resided in the house idluded to. Mr. Palmer also visited the neighbourhood during her stay in the county, and was for two days in the house, but did not sleep there. Tile COURT decreed that a-merely nominal residence was not sufficient, but that, according to the 320 l section before rierrcd to, a personal and actual 'residence was necessary to qualify ; the vote was therefore lost. Sir Peter Pa}ne, Bart., formerly the representative of the county in the Liberal interest, also claimed by Mr. Rllzers as a freeman residing within the limits specified in the 32d section of the Reform Act. Many desultory objections were urged pro- and con. on the subject of the distance, &c., but it was finidiy decided by the Barrister that the qualifintion was not in accor dance with the requirements of the 32d section, not being situated within seven miles of the borough. No vote. In the case of . Mr. Riley, a mastgr of a school in con nection with the Harpur charity, it was decided that inas much as he was liable to be expelled from the occupancy at any period, his vote was not valid. On this decision, we understand, depends the destruction of several Tory votes. So far the result has been most satisfactory, tl:e reformers having at any rate established a majority which cannot be affected by any future decision in this Caurt. THE VICAR OF WREXHILL.—AIrs. Trottope s new novel, under this title, is intended to satirise that por tion of society, who style themselves the religious world. The object of the authoress has been to show the wide is rit a y n o a f rtf t n qind b u y c p t ne a r n il d e harbours the betweenve x ,: ees hevrdo u t y distinction pa rism . t which profession.i sts most knavish find selfish projects.

He is the centre and pivot of a cir c le of weak-minded dupes who cant to the same tune with much afteciCa f ness of tone, but with a t o t a l a b sence o f charity its their hearts. O course a variety of other personages are intrat duced by way of contrast to those mock Christians, and the sympathies of the reader are accordingly turned into the proper channel. The tale is extremely interesting, and the characters are admirably drawn. Mrs. Trollope has used her sharp pen with equal good will and ability.—Edinburgh Evening Post.
