ILLRYIZBONE.

rpon the name of Sarah Duval, who claims in respect
of 3U, Clipetone-stmet, being struck out, Mr. Sheen, of
the firm of Sham and Roscoe, 'elicitors, rose and said
that he appeared for that lady, and must object to her
name being expunged.
The Revising Barnette said he would give his judgment
in the case this morning. Although he was personally
dully impressed with the belief that women were not in-
kiness' ip the new act, Mr. Share had pot the ease in a
vary different way te that in which it bad previously bees
put, sad he eWled like time. o amide: Ms decides.
Mr.. Oro said, that as ha appeared 144: large number
col muses, he should ask for one owe to be granted
by which the others would be governed.
The Barrister said be would amide to the
the ladies elag the vote in Marylebone Mm e was
oaa=litleicss, of 11,_tes-hill, who was stated in
to be the sister of Mr. John aright, M.P.
The lodger dikes were then ce:led with, and it ie
on apparent the face of things aa only about 116 of
these d aMe, cut of not far off 3, were dieposed of
y, there will either be an absolute necessity for
vest
tdappointineat of additional reviling barristers, ass •
very emeiderable period beyond that anticipated will be
required for the disposal of the whole. The liberals have
sent in the larger number of claims, but the oonservativee
are the most sotosidel in the edema of deism, and loss
but few, whilst, through informalities, the liberals lose as
many as they sustain. Out of the small number of claims
di/paled of yesterday 61 (chiefly liberal) were rejected,
and about 65 passed. The point as to whether two wit-
nesses or only one were rNuired to sign the claim was
reiNed in Marylebone, as in Paddington, and the revising
barrister agreed to entertain those with the signature, of
two different witnesses upon the production of witness,
to-day (Thursday). The majority of claims were rejected
through the absence of necessary particulars.
The court adjourned at 6 p.m.

LAMBETH
WOMEN SUFFRAGE AGAIN.

Mr. Pringle (Sheen and Roscoe. solicitors), appeared on
behalf of Barnet Keziah Rudd, who claimed to be
placed on the rer as the occupier of a house.
The Revising Barristm.said that he should wait and bear
the arguments in the case of the application of a female
under the lodger franchise before he gave any decision on
the point now raised.
A young man applied as a lodger occupying apartments
in his father's house for the lodger franchise.
The Revising Banister—On what ground
The applicant—l am an occupier of a bedroom.
The Revising Barrister—But you could not turn your
father out of your room. The legislature never intended
to give votes in such eases. It must be for sole occupation.
The chum was disallowed.
The remainder of the householders' claims was gone
through. A number of compound householders were
struck off, on the ground of their names not being on the
rate books, and their not appearing to substantiate their
claims. The court then adjourned.

CnELier.A.—The court for the registration of the
voters for this borough was resumed yesterday morning
at the Kensington Vestry-hall, by Mr. Bacon, the
revising barrister. A working man, whose name
did not transpire. entered the oourt, and, with
a rent-book in his hand, raid he bad lived twelve
years in the same place, and he bad not made his
claim, but he supposed it to be aufficient to come to the
court to be put on the register. Mr. Bacon—That is not
sufficient : you should have sent in your claim before the
20th of July. As you have made no claim I have no
power under the act to deal with your case. Mr. Dews
restored the names of Lord Exmouth, Lord Durham, and
Lord Vivian to the register, for as peers of parliament
they were hot excluded from voting by the act of trit
ment, but simply by a resolution of the House of
The revising barrister then proceeded to take lodger
claims, the court being crowded with claimants daring
the day. A great many claims were allowed, but in many
instances the names were expunged in ponsequenoe of an
info, mality in the claim, and the insufficient descriotko
of the landlord The revrang barrister, in answer to •
question, said he could not tell when the business of the
revision for Heneington would be finished, as he had a great
number of caws to go through. He would at this morn-
ing (Thursday) from 9 a.m. to 10.30 at the liensini
Vestry, and at 11 at the Vestry-hall, King's-road, Ch

ter, held a court at the Literary Institution, Greenwich,
for the purpose of revising the lists of
ca
compruoug the parishes of Greenwich, St. Paul,
St. Nicholas, Deptford; Charlton, Woolwich, Plum-
tread. There were upwards of 1,100 new claimants as
householders, and 201 lodgers, among the latter being
three females. On the first name of • female ointment
being called, and the claimant not appearing, Mr. Blake,
as a liberal agent, said he was instructed to appear in
support, but the vote was not allowed, and the names
of the other two female claimants were struck out.

NORFOLK =LILY—Groat interest was exerted
in the revising • 's wart held at Great Yarmouth,
on Tuesday, in consequence of the liberal agenta making
as objection to the dams of 600 or 000 121. occupiers
living in Great Yarmouth, en the ground that the borough
is not yet disfranchised, and that their qualgestion gave
them the right of voting for members for the borough
until the dimpled/on of the present parliament, and that
wetly they were not entitled to vote for North
Nod . The conservative agent (Mr. C. Diver) eon-
tended that Yarmouth was nu longer • borough, the we.
vision court and the right of returning members to the
preeent parliament having been taken away by a sheet
set paw, din December last. The revising barrister, Dr.
Abdy, awned his decisies. On whichever aide judg-
ment is given, Waive constquewes, so far as the repre-
sentot ion of North Norfolk is concerned, will be the result.
