BOROUGH OF LAMBETH.

Messrs. Turner and Brett sat at the Horns Tavern
yesterday to revise the several lists of voters for the bo-
rough. The list for the parish of Lambeth was taken
by Mr. Turner and those for Newington and Camber-
svell by Mr. Brett. The claimants in Lambeth were
; in Newington they amounted to 23 ; and in Cam-
berwell to 19.

(Before Mr. TURNER.)
LONDON GAS COMPANY.

Andrew Spottiswoode and Thomas Meux claimed to be
inserted in the list of voters for the Prince's Liberty, in
respect of a house and premises at Vauxhall.
Judgment deferred.

James Byers and John Byers, brothers, claimed to be
insetted in the list of voters for the Prince's Liberty, they
beta; partners, and paying the rent and taxes of their pre-
mises punctually.

The Overseer said that only James Byers was rated in
the parish books.
Mr. James Byers said that the name of his brother as
well as his own was on their carts.
The BARRISTER, however, held that in order to entide
parties to be on the registry, they must be rated. lie
therefore allowed the claim of James Byers, and disallowed
that of John Byers.
No other case of the slightest interest came before the
Barrister.

(Before Mr. BRETT.)
ST. MARY, NEWINGTON.—There were 25 claimants in
this parish.
The Barristers went through the lists generally, reserv-
ing one or two cases for to-morrow (this day), when the
1 sts for the registration of this borough will be concluded.
There is an increase in the number of voters for this bo-
rough of nearly 1,000, as compared with the last registry.
The increase is as follows
Parish of Lambeth
Parish of Newington 162
Parish of Camberwell ..

Total ..
Number of voters on last year's registry 7,040

The Barristers rose at four o'clock.

WEST KENT.

Yesterday the Revising Barristers held Courts at the
Mitre Tavern, Greenwich, for the purpose of revising the
lists for Lewisha►n, Lee, Crayford, East Wickham, and St.
Paul, and St. Nicholas, Deptford.
(Bafore Mr. TYNDALE.)
Mr. TYNDALE, on entering the Court, decided that he
could amend the qualification of Mr. Crickett, of Black-
heath-park, whose case was argued on the previous day,
from " leaseholder" to occupier, which he accordingly did,
and that gentleman's name was retained on the list. The
Revising Barrister also stated that he should not insist on
proof of the due execution of deeds unless some strong
grounds were shown to lead to the inference that fraud or
collusion had taken place.

LEWISHAM—THE CORN-MILL AT LEWISHAM BRIDGE.
Mr. John Angus, a member of the Society of Friends,
was objected to by the Conservatives.
The claimant affirmed that he held a leasehold mill at
Lewisham-bridge. The lease was granted to his brother
Nathaniel Angus, now deceased, from Sarah Holmes, for
21 years, at the annual rent of 801. Claimant came to it
as heir-at-law, and had expended upwards of 6001. in im-
provements. The property, he considered, would let for
2001. per year.—Name retained.
The names of Mr. Grote (the Member for the City)
and his partner, Mr. Prescott, were severally claimed in
respect of a moiety of a freehold field, in Perryhill, Syden-
ham, were next objected to by the Conservatives.
Without success.
(Before Mr. BOSANQUET.)
The claim of Richard Aldridge was objected to by the
Conservatives.
It appeared that the claimant had held the situation of
Clerk to the Independent Chapel in High-street, Deptford,
for the last forty years ; that the building was freehold,
and the rents and profits arising from it were directed under
the will of a Mr. Wingrove to be paid to the clerk and the
minister for the time being. The claimant was appointed
by the congregation, and could not be removed unless he
misconducted himself.
The Court admitted the claim.

Mr. E. G. Barnard, the Liberal Member for the borough
of Greenwich, claimed to vote as a " Trustee of the meet-
ing-house called the Independent Congregational Meeting-
house," in Deptford.
His claim was opposed by Mr. Sandom, and supported
by Mr. Holmes.
Mr. Holmes said the Hon. Member was not present, but
if the Court would take the case of Mr. John Wade, a co-
trustee, the question would be settled.
Mr. Wade was then sworn, and stated that he and seven
others were Trustees of the chapel in question, and that
they received the pew-rents, and expended them, without
being accountable to any person. The capital value of the
building was between 2,0001. an' 3,0001., and of the an-
nual value of 1501.

The trust deed was then put in, and it appeared that it
had not been enrolled.
Mr. Sandom cited several authorities, and read clauses
from the 9th Geo. 11., c. 36, to show that it was necessary
that a deed for charitable uses should be enrolled in the
Court of Chancery to constitute it a valid document.
The names were all expunged.

STORIES OF SPANISH LIEE: EDITED BY LIEUT.
COLONEL CRAUFURD.—In the introduction to this most
interesting work the author says, " I really trust the pre-
sent attempt may serve some better purpose than that of
mere transient entertainment—my intention is to represent
realities. The persons, characters, and manners—the opi-
nions—the passions, which I represent to the reader, are
those which I have myself known and seen in Spain. Of the
adventures, I was either a❑ eye-witness myself, or the cir-
cumstances of them were related to me by those who took
part in them ; and I am not without hope that these
sketches may contribute, with sonle rerders at least, to mo-
dify their opinions upon Spain, and the Spanish people."
This work is undoubtedly deserving of great attention, par-
ticularly at the present moment.
A public meeting is to be held in Birmingham on
Wednesday next to receive a report from a Committee of
Merchants, Bankers, Manufacturers, &c., respecting the al-
leged general distress, difficulty, and embarrassment of the
commercial classes. Persons of all parties have signed the
requisition to the High Bailiff to convene this meeting.
