Marjleboce was rammed yesterday by Mr. J. N. Goren,
at the Court-botuse, Marylebone-lane.
At the opening of the court the Revising Barrister said
he should be obliged, in order to complo to the regietratien
in proper time, to discontinue a practios be had twee
following for the convenience of claimants. Out of 130
claims which stood over specially for the attendants, uu
Saturdey of the claimants ur witnerwes, over 100 were not
rispotded to at ie.% and the time was entirely wasted. tln
the previous Thursday there had been a similar failure at
tl.e evening sitting. Tor the future he ,Mudd strike out
all informal claims, but if the wither/secs attended before
the closing of the lista be would receive their evidence,
and if that were satisfactory he would restore the names
to the hot. lle would not consent to sit for a couple of
tours calling out informal claims to which there were no

17= having been struck ant on weonnt of informal
e'gnature, the applicant said he hoped that another year
the forms would be made into common English, and then
the requirements of the act would be complied with.
A question wits raised as to the right of those living in
model lodging-houses to claim the right of votiuit as
lodge re.
William Butler claimed to be placed on the lirit fur
lodgings at Staffonl-buildings.
Revising Barrister struck the claim nut.
Mr. Thalami (mrinber of the Mr -vlebine vestry) sakod
the barrister on what ground he objected to taking claims
frem the lodgers in the model lodging-houses.
The Heviriug Barrister tad that all the residents in
me del lodgingrhouies had been objected tn ea lodgers on
the pound of "reparate entrance," which would entitle
them as occupiers of separate tenements to be rated.
11r. Hallam said he represented several who were in the
position of the one just struck nut. and their expos were
exceptional, inn-touch as there was but one main entmnee.
lie trusted the learned barrister would not expunge the
names of the claimants becauee they re-ideal in model
lodging-houses. Such a (erase, if aitopted, would be
very much n gretted, as be. in common with °them, looked
up n the meilel lodging-houses as a great boon to the
working claws.
The Barrister said if Mr. Italians would produce the
claimants and prove that there "MY but one main entrance

Mr. Hallam undertook to produce the claimants, and

]SR. BRIGHT AND ME REPRESENTATION

Or NOItTRAMPTON,

Inc following correepondemoe is published in the Daily
Km4l:
23, Great St. Helen's London. Sept. 19.
Sir.—l feel some difficulty in intruding myself upon
you, hut as you have taken a step in the Northampton
election which I regard as prejudicial to my interest& you
will pardon my trying to set the matter right. At the
end of June I issued the address of which I enclose you
copy: the only other address issued is that of the silting
members. You will see in my address that I offered to
submit my claims to the decision of an aggregate meeting.
which offer has been entirely disregarded by Lord Henley.
Whether or not Lord Henley is worthy of the support of
the electors is a slue to which a large proportion of the
inhabitants of Northampton bare already responded;
thee declare that he is not. As to whether I shall make a
better member, I here offer no other remark tluue that
through my life I have actively striven to advance the
cause of reform, while Vincent Henley has often elii-
ourared and hindered effort, and has only voted in
obedience to the irresistible pressure of public opinion.
'That you should nupport Mr. Charles Gilpin with the
weight of your great influerace in natural, but that you
should bolter up tumbling whigginm an represent al by
Lord Henley. I confess eurpnscs me. Mr. Gilpin's na:uo
has been associated as a working member in many 111.1.1c1y
valuable social and political reform.. Lewd Henley's
activity ban Loco nearly limited to the prevention of C, en.
rulsory education, the advocacy of cur reused evenelitore
kr fortificuticees, and general care fur landed iuterents.
—Yours moat obediently,
(Signed) Cain. Pnentsoner.
P.S. I shall Luke the liberty of priutiug this letter and
cues mph' you may forward me.

Pear Sir,— ask,-,1 n simple 9.11.4111,1 about 121..12
Will "cell I have acted or parliament for several years,
!It'. a wrote a direct and honest reply. Idu not think it
ra always wise to sclect the mo,t extreme politician bocaase
lie is the most extreme. To do so would be to put up the
representation to auction, and I scarcely know a candidate
ow before the public who might not be outbidden by
rome one wishing to supplant him. I have some regard
for past cervices, and for a tried fidelity, and my sympathy
does not run with those who seek to divide the liberal
party, on the ground that come portion of it iv lege ad-
vanced than the rest. If all the men like Lord Henley
bad resisted liberal measures, and the estenaMn of
the laanchispe, we might have had a hard battle to
teat for years to come. I think, therefore, the
onbfidence of liberal politicians need not be rudely with.
drawn from those who have dealt justly with the un-
enfranchised classes. The Northampton electors. I doubt
not, can manage their own affairs, and it would lm imper-
tinent in me to affect to teach them, One of them mcked
me a quistion, and I answeiod it, but witf', no auspices&
that I should be 4:OP-iliered as taking eider with any party
in the contoo._ j am, tec. (Signed`, JOIIN blamer.

23, Great St. Helen's, London, Sept. G.
Pear beg to acknowiedge the receipt of yular
favour of the 24th, and to expraon my entire ondistiction
with your explanation that you bail no intention of Liking
&des in the conte,t. It woks only bemire the whig sup-
port eno of lord Henley meld your letter an &distinctly hoed a le
declaration to mpelf that I felt holm! to tr.mbleyou /14 I
have done. With regard to your views as to "th.ste who
seek to divide the literal party," there is of course notion-et
to be said in my ease, an I have never nought to divide
tint party, but have always been ready, anol still am
ready, to take their decision on my candidature. The
quoriion between myself and Inr.l Henley is one which,
as you properly put it, is for the decision of the North-
ampton electors. Ido not reek them merely became lam
an "extreme politician," bat because I believe thhe politick!
principles enunciated in my address to be more consimaut
with their desires than are the half-hearted whig view. to
which Lsril Henley adheres—Yours respectfully,

TUE LONDON ARTISANS' CLUB AND TRADES'
HALL CONVANY.—A public meeting in furtherance
of the above object was held Lett evening at the
Cleveland Fitzroy-square—Mr. If'Culhigla Tor-
rens, M.P., in the chair. There was • large
attendance. The chairmen ailihmeed the meeting
at some length in support of the scheme, which
he considered would be highly advantageous to the class
for which it was more especially intended. The lbw.
Henry Sony detailed the objects of the promoters of the
company, who were all working men. It was propomil
to lease or build a hall, in a central part of London,
capable of holding at least 1,000 persona seated, with
library, reutling-room, and refreshment-rooms attached,
for the use of trade, benefit, and other societies. The

taken up by 140 persons, unit us soon as 200 shareholders
have bows enrolled, • meeting would be called to elect
the dim:tore. He believed such a club and hall would
not only prove a great moral benefit and social advantage
to working non, but would yield a good dividend to the
shareholders. Mr. Mickleton-1i moved, anil,'Mr. Ogle se-
conded, a resolution apposing the scheme, and pledging
