THE REGISTRATIONS.

MIDDLESEX.—On Saturday the lists for Hamp-
stead, Hornsey, and Willesden, were revised by the barris-
ter at Jack Straw's Castle, Hampstead. A number of claims,
on account of rent charges purchased through the agency of
the League were allowed, the objections of the Conservatives
to them having been withdrawn.
WEsrmtssrmt.—The revision of the lists of voters
for this city has terminated most ruccersfully for the Reform
interest, as will be seen from the following statement : Re-
form claims allowed, 128 ; Tories expunged on objeetion,
243; which makes a total of 371 ; deduct 4 for Tory gains on
claims allowed, and total gain remains to Reformers of 367,
In addition to this, there was, previous to the revision, 979
more names on the lists than on the previous register, a large
majority of whom are known to be Reformers. This in-
crease has mainly resulted from the attention paid to the
insertion of names in the lists of voters previous to the
revision.
PROVINCIAL.—Sourif CnEsnmE.—The regis-
tration for the above division commenced on the 2nd October,
and terminated on Friday. The free-traders had made
upwards of 980 new claims, and succeeded in establishing all
but eight. The monopolists objected to more than 800 of the
new free-trade claims; but, on uccunt of an informality in
the majority of their notices, the result has proved anything
but satisfactory to them, having only sustained eight out of
the whole number. The result of the revision is • gain of
1,128 free-trade votes.—Manchester Guardian.
Wimnsou.—The revision of the electoral lists for
New Windsor, and for that part of the parish of Mower
within the borough, took place on Saturday, in the Town-
hall, before C. S. Whitmire, Esq. Mr. C. 8. Voules,
solicitor, attended on the part of the Conservative interest.
No party attended on behalf of the Liberals. There were
only six claims made by the Conservatives, all of which were
allowed, with the exception of one by Charles Manley, sen.,
the parish sexton, who did not attend to support it. It
appeared that the sexton occupies a house in the church-
yard, of the value of about 151. per annum, which has never
yet been rated. Had his claim been allowed, the house
must have been rated by the parish officers, and therefore
the sexton abandoned his claim. There were but two ob-
jections, both of which were sustained. According
.to the
revised lists the number of electors now on the register is
732, being 67 more than were in the register at the termina-
tion of the revision last year.
NEWCASTLE-UNDER-LINE.—As in most other regis-
tration courts this year, no interest was excited during the
revision of the lists for this borough, by W. Milinan, Esq.
The only case werth adverting to was one in which a claim
was disallowed, on the ground that the notice was informal,
the claimant having abbreviated his christian same by writ-
ing " Geo." instead of George. The barrister held that the
christian name and surname should be at full length, as
stated in the schedule to the act. The number of voters on
the register for the ensuing year is 1,076. There are 32
voters more on the register this year than the last.
TOTNES.—This Devonshire borough has added 15
votes to the Reform interest.
