Man Me Deihl News.l
The revieka of the lista of eaten for the county of
Middlesex was concluded on Friday last. After

thirteen days of political strife, the agents of tho
two political registration moieties have pat forth
what they each claim or consider u the result of

their labours.
It will be remembered that at the close of the late
contest for the county representation, between Mr.
Osborne and the Marquis of 'Handfeed, the state of
parties was on a most critical balance, so much so,
that though the liberal cans, finally triumphed in
the return of Mr. Osborne, it was not accomplished
without the moat strenuous exertion, and calling in
aid almost the whole strength of the liberal and re-
form interest. It was natural that the conservatives

—being beaten by a majority of only 132 out of
14,630 registered electors—should endeavour to gib
at some future time, by attacking the a.
gistor, what the late contest denied OM
Immediately after the election, they theft.
fore commenced the attack urea the mini&
which contested elections always o awl
pi
serving nearly two thousand objections hew
tors who had removed, or whose descri en dr
register afforded a pretence for an o jecticefau:
against new claimants, especially those who
under the auspices of the National Freehold Laid
Society, awaited to reap the reward—if any—of
their labours. But while the coneervativas were
thus quietly working, the Middlesex Reheat Regis-
tration office was equally the scene of piper
Son for the forthcoming fight in the revideweemele,
and the published lists sooiiatividayed the het that
the liberal party were prepared to enter the arena
with upwards of a thousand objections.
In this position, both parties proceeded with the
work of disfranchisement, and day by day a fierce
conflict was carried on between the agents—at each
court, the conservatives declaring themselves the
victors by an increasing majority of disfranchised
liberal electors, the total gain on whom they modestly
calculate at upwards of 1,100!
Were this really so, we would not hesitate in de-
claring the metropolitan county lost to the liberal
cause for at least the next twelve months, should an
election take place in that period, but we are glad to
be able to state that such is not the fact. After a
careful analysis of the lists revised, the Middlesex
Reform Registration Office have prepared the tabular
statement which appears in another part of our
columns, and from which it will be seen the conser-
vative gain upon the county is not more than 297.
Although the conservative, had served the large
number of objections stated above, not more than
1,700 were proved in court, and nearly 500 of these
were objections already taken by the liberals to de-
ceased or non-qualified electors. On the other hand,
the reformers proved service of 900, and succeeded
in sustaining 814.
By examining the analysis it will be seen that
while 187 electors vino voted for Mr. Osborne have
been struck off the list, 155 who voted for the Mar-
quis of Blandford have shared the same fate; and
that while the liberals were successfal in maintaining
559 objections against registered voters, only 420
were maintained by the conservatives. On the first
of these facts, therefore, the conservatives have a
hear gain of 32 votes, which would still leave Mr.
Osborne, considering the revision in the character of
seleatiny on the election, a majority of 100. On the
esened, the liberals consider the conservatives have
a gain of 265, inasmuch as the liberals expunged es
their own objections 200 deceased and non-qualified
liberal voters.
Upea the objections to new claimants, for white
the weimarvatives claim so much, we must say
a few weeds. By further reference to the table, It
appease the liberals sustained 100 objections against
new eielnme ele. and the eenservatins 357 ; but these

antacter of the new register will be formed. While
it is utterly impossible to give anything like an nee-
rate statement in numbers of the political views of
this body of electors, a fair deduction from the dis-
tricts in which they appear may be drawn that the
majority are in favour of liberal and reform soi-
gnee. It is in such districts as Bethnal-green,

DAVI", a pensioner, receiving 2s. a day as a dis-
charged sergeant of the 26th regiment, and living at Bris-
tol, ha been struck off the list by the Chelsea commis-
sioners, for carrying about a
bill,
issued by the Peace
Society, to deter persons from joining the militia.
FATAL BEERSUOP Areaar.—Mr. G. S. Brent,
deputy-coroner, held an inquest at the Middlesex hospital
on the body of James Fitzgibbon, aged 30, a bricklayer's
labourer, who was sca:Jed to death. It appeared that on
Monday afternoon the deceased entered a beershop in
Orchard-place, Penman-street, Portman-pours, where be
began drinking and smoking with come other Irishmen
who were there. About Ilya o'clock deceased and another
man, named Stokes, having h.d some words, agreed to
wrmitle it out. They were both the worse for liquor, and
draggling Co the mastery they fell against the fireplace
and then ea the floor, the kettle thereby being upset, and
its boding contents poured over them. They were imme-
diately conveyed to the hospital, where Stokes's injuries
having been dressed he was admitted an out-patient, and
taken tome. The deceased was frightfully scalded em
the head, faes, beck, and chest, and was placed in bed.
Every attention wee paid him, but delirium ensued, and he
gradually sank, and died on Thursday. Verdict, " Acci-
dental death."
