REVISION OF VOTER, LISTS.

Oa Wednesday afternoon Mr. Stonehouse Vigor,
barrister•eblaw, revised the county list of voters com-
prised in this division, sod Mr. Arden appeered to
repreeent the interests of Captain Digby. Oil the 101 l m-
ing morning the same gentleman held • c iurt at the
some place to revise the list of voters resident in the
borough, both Pwliamentery and municipal, but the
whole proceeding. were of a very tem. character. Mr.
Arlen appeared on behalf of Sir Frederic Johnat me, Ur.
Percy Serest for the Weymouth Cm...restive Association,
mei for the Weymouth Working Mea's Conservative
Associsaion, and Mr. Howard Bowen for the Ltherel
lotoreet, Most of the claims and obj-ctions were of the
usual chtracter, the following CONS only proving of any
mobilo interest.
An objection was reload by Mr. Bowen to Georre Loy
Crickomy, on the ground of the date of his claim being the
list of July, 1280,_ where.i it ought to have been allot the
lit of August He said 50 or 00 oases depended on this.
This men and others who claimed were omitted from the
list of 181311. He maintained notice of claim should have
been served between the lit and Stle of August, and
the date given in order to Mow it was signed within the
Crted period stated in the Atit.-12i. Arden argued
iX was nothing in it which made :the requirement
abeoletaly neomeary. The prerdes day on which a notice
wee signed wee not material, but when it was 'erred.
—TM Revising Barrister said if Mr. Arden could prove
when the ootice yrm served that would bee point in be
favour —William Butt we. then ogled, and sold he
peeved Robert Thom.. Baxter, as. of the overseers of the
with a notios of the claim on the Silk of August
wen costended the most material part was the
dote en the notice, which spoke for AWL—The Revieing
Barrister sold he could not go with Mr. Bowen there.
The section M the Act stated any parson whom name had
been omitted from the list of voters idionld on or bet ore
the 251 e of August give, or cause to be given, notice
acoordins to the form. The Ant said nothing as to say
actual date. Notice was only required to be given
between the date. mentioad. Tate date of service
wee the material point.—Mr. Bowen said the question
Involved we. most important, and affected nearly the
whole of the Main& He read extracts from oewspaper
reports in support of his views. —Ms. Street reentaked
Mr. It .wen, beyond a mere expremion of opinion, had not
submitted anything which found it, interpretation in the
words of the statute. If be bat any rase upon the section
I. t him lit ng it out. A mere text book and a newel:toper
report were nothing.—The Revising Barrister said be could
not • • the clurn tot Wan dwindled to-omse the cisim was
dated July gist—Mr. B errn remarked it wee clear the
etetute no-•ht notice &basil be given after the let of
August —Th, Revising Barrister observed he certaioly
agreed with Kr. Bowen, and Mr. Street added that notice
wee givea.—The Revising Barrister said whoever served
the notice might have saved all ills teeth's by putting
toe date as it. It was quite unnmemary to have the
p 'p•re dated iu this manner, and there we. no excuse why
t. e pmers ehould have been seat in such • wsy.—The
oblection was overraled.
G ores Recketraw Crlctiosay we. objeeted to by Mr
Bow ,so end suPPoeted by Mr. Ardm.—Mr. CrickruM 541
he hied occupier! an °Mos in St. Thomasetreet foe 25
years. He was niw in joint occupation with his son, and
bed leen so for two years. It., bed been jotntly rated
and paid all ratea—Mr. Bow.. said hi. objection we. of
a technical kiwi—thet Mr. Crickmay d.d not live within
seven miles of the borough. After Mr. Crekulay had
admitted r miring the no Mr. Bowen said that gen-
tleman. SI wee well known, did not reside within seven
ml's of the borough, living In London.—Mr. Crlcknesy
stabil he removed from his dwelling house at Weymouth
shout twelve month. Mo, and now lived in L models.
Bier. leering he took site &pertinence in Paltensy-
bundler.. He and his son had the joint moupetion of
• sitUng•room with two separate bed-room.. He was here
almost every week—Mr. Bowen said Mr. Cr.cktessy un-
doubtedly lived in town, and only came down here for
the purpon. of Plaines.. The claim Wee bOlid to be
cond.—Me Orinkinay (deserted Kr. Bowen knew the
recta of this mese thoroughly well, and if there was Inch
a thine as expense. he thought he ought to be allowed
them, boomoe thia was • most frivolous obj,ation.-14.
Bowen remarked he did not think the olaim es it stood
on the Piet wee frivolous—The Revising Barrister Ist.
motel to Mr. Crickenay ay be npp lord ep the list the
obj.ction was good, but on the claim being proved it
showed the ollection was hat, theretom be thought he
could not quite Tall it frivolous.—Mr. Crickmay replied
Mr. Bowen had been ti his house and hose all about the
circumstances of the cam as well as he did, and bethought
I' we, untiendsome for him to have acted at be hod.—The
tri.i or B erieter : Ah I that's &Ramat.
In tile Co •of Henry Hampton If fl ,wen appeaTad in
supp Or. 411114,0.1 4bl be, agpegar. —Toe qtteati•rtl in this
cm.. wee a . to or ling the mai bat 1,00 in powassi 'a
of his b 00... It was met -d by Thomas Pettison
that he visited him at his proem t ebois loot May twelve
months,—Mr. Arden, who oPPomeol, said he wee instructed
to say the 111511 was not in pomession then. and Mr. Pock.
et •ted Hampton told him be wed into the home on the
is; of September of last year.—The Barrister said
molars the more came to stave the occupation himself he
should not Winw the slurs. and struck it out.
Harry Ayleebury was obj cited to by Mr. Bowen on the
ground he di I not reside at York-budding& but was in
pracica as • 'ghetton at S e 'mese—Mr. Street said his
ind,ructions were that there was • joint =upset,. and
that Mr. Aylesbory e.onee t r Weymooth from tims to
time. He om in the town yesterday, end would have
been present that morning If be bad not been called
•way on beadle:clic—Me. 11050 thought he bad showed
primed/mid that Mr. Alyesbury did no. melte hare, and
wee berry hie bonhomie was such as to prevent his answer-
ing the objection imainst him —The Barrister ramorked
the mere fact of hi. residius in .11:In place did not show
be could also malle in en db.,— Mr. Bowen thought
the fact of Mr. Aylesbury peso bine as a solicitor at
Sowings am Paced faMe evidence he did not occupy the
house hers with hie B aria : The aneetion
on my mind is on whom I am to call for proof—Mr.
Street: Do coil up in Mr. It 'wen. sir. (Loughter )--The
Baerister : I em Out .Use If I”ught net to cull open you.
