REGISTRATION OF VOTERS.

MIDDLESEX.
Yesterday the Revising Banisters for this county, Messrs.
KEEN and COVENTRY, resumed their labours in the Law
Courts, Guildhall, London.

In the Court where Mr. KEEN presided little business
was done, as many lists allotted to his revision had not been
forwarded to him by the Clerk of the Peace. In conse-
quence his Court rose early, and Mr. Keen intimated that
he should take them on the adjournment day, the 9th inst.,
at the Court-house, Marylebone.
Mr. COVENTRY investigated the remaining objections on
his lists, and several stand over for judgment.
In the case of Mr. Bilk and others, who claimed as
Stock Exchange proprietors, adjourned from Wednesday,
the names were expunged.
The claims of the " Sergeants at Law," in respect of their
interest in Sergeants' Inn Coffee-house, were again post-
poned till Monday next.

Mr. Brown, the Warden of the Fleet, claimed to be re-
tained on the Voters' List for Middlesex, in respect of his
freehold messuage, the Fleet Prison. In support of his
claim, he produced the patent of appointment, and con-
tended that the prison he held, was a freehold messuage,
giving him the right to vote. His claim was admitted in
1832, and he had voted in consequence.
Mr. Corpocx opposed the claim on the part of the Re-
formers, and learnt from examination of Mr. Brown, that
he could not let any part of the freehold except to persons
"recommended" by the Courts of Law or Equity.—(This
remark occasioned considerable merriment.) He also
stated that his tenants had no key to the outer door of the
said freehold—(Continued merriment)—and that the por-
tion occupied by him was worth certainly above 10/. a year,
and was situated in the City of London..
Mr. COVENTRY said that the claim must be disallowed.
Objection admitted, and name expunged accordingly.
LAND TAX RIGHT...--Mr. COVENTRY gave judgment 011
Mr. Hillhouse's claim on the St. Giles's list, admitting the
objection and expunging the name.
The following are the results, as far as they are yet
known, of the revisions of the list for the City of London
parishes :—of 25 objections urged by overseers, 20 were
allowed ; of 91 objections raised by Conservatives, 44 were
admitted ; and of 70 objections submitted by Reformers,
21 prevailed.

There has been a meeting at Brixham of great im-
portance to the shipping interest—namely, to adopt the
means for constructing a breakwater or harbour at Torbay.
Sir J. Y. Buller presided. Mr. Rendall, an engineer, in
describing. the project, said that the cost would be great, as
' it was proposed to cover an area of near fifty acres, averaging
a depth of water of three fathoms and a-half when the tide
was out. The want of such a harbour of refuge in the
Bristol Channel was strongly enlarged upon.
ROASTED APPLES.—The late Mr. Walker, in his
" Original," offers the following as a greatly improved mode,
which was brought 'from Paris, and which, when well ma-
naged, makes rather a rich dish of an insipid one. Select
the largest apples ; scoop out the core, without cutting right
through ; fill the hollow with butter and fine soft sugar ;
let them roast in a slow oven, and serve them up with the
syrup.
On Friday last, we had a partial fall of snow, and
on Saturday we were visited by a complete snow storm.
Almost in an instant, shortly after one o'clock, the streets
were covered with snow, as it were by magic, and the fall of
immensely large flakes continued with more or less violence
throughout the day. The London Mail, which usually
reaches this town at twenty minutes past three, did not ar-
rive on Sunday morning till seven o'clock. In the night
the frost had set in, and the weather has been sharp ever
since.-7-Brighton Guardian.
Mr. MIDSHIPMAN EASY.—For genuine humour
and drollery of the richest kind, this tribute to " Laughter
holding both his sides," would even conjure up a smile on
the stern visage of Heraelitus, and change into " wreathed
smiles" the tears of the lovely Niobe, had either of them
had the good fortune to live in this enlightened age, and to
have enjoyed the still higher privilege of reading Captain
Marryat's novels. In " Mr. Midshipman Easy," which
has just appeared, the Gallant Captain seems to have con-
centrated all his wit to produce an irresistible coup de re-
serve, and that it is so its popularity most sufficiently proves.
On Saturday last a female, 28 years of age, pos-
sessing considerable personal attractions, and respectably
dressed, was brought into Guy's Hospital, labouring under
the effects of some potent poison, which she had swallowed,
with the intention of terminating her existenoe. She was
directly attended by the house surgeon, who discovered
that she had taken laudanum. The usual antidotes were
administered, and by the use of the stomach pump the
greater part of the poison was withdrawn, and ultimately
she was restored to a state of consciousness, and in a short
time became convalescent. From the statement the unfor-
tunate woman gave of herself, it appears that her name is
Roselle, and that her parents and family, who reside in one
of the western parts of England, arc highly respectable.
Several years ago she was inveigled from her parental roof
by a deeply-planned artifice, her ruin was ultimately accord.
plished by an individual of considerable rank and property,
who had been the solo instigator of her being decoyed from
home. She had since, until very lately, remained under h's
protection, and had borne him several children, some of
whom are still living. Within the last two months he
had abruptly abandoned her without any provision for her
future support, or indeed the means of present existence.
She became an inmate of one of those sinks of vice and
iniquity in Church-street, Waterloo-road, from which place
she was brought to the hospital. She had resided there
but a few days, when, disgusted with her wrotahod mode of
life, and her feelings harrowed to de aperation by the grief
and misery she had brought upon her parents, she resolved
on terminating her woes by suicide. She expressed great
sorrow at having made such a wicked attempt, and an leav-
ing the hospital, stated that it was her firm determination
to return home to her family. Thrilivig the last week two
other poor creatures were liPought into St. Thomas's Hos-
pital from William-street, Waterloo-road, having takcn
poison with the intention of destroying themselves. They
were both fortunately recovered, owing to the contiguity
of their residence to the hospital enabling them to receive
immediate assistarm they were under twenty wars of age,
and had OW tram the country. On twin& sufficiently re-
covered they were sent home to their friends.
