BAKER'S COMPANY.

The vote of James Brown, 16, Cooper's-row, Tower-hill,
was objected to on the ground that no residence was affixed to
his name on the printed list.
Mr. MYLNE directed the official printed list to be produced,
and his same and full address appearing there, the objection
was withdrawn. The vote of Wm. Boswell Frostick, Road-
side, Edmonton, was also objected to, but the notice of ob-
jection not being sufficient, it was overruled. The objection
to the vote of George Galaway, Silver-street, Edmonton,
shared the same fate. The vote of John Reed, Harrow, was
objected to by Mr. Rowcroft, on the ground that his address
exceeded the limits prescribed by the Act of Parliament.
Mr. MYLNE thought the objection invalid, inasmuch as no
proof had been shown that Harrow was upwards of 7 miles
from London.

Mr. ROWCROFT was prepared to prove it was.
Mr. MYLNE—But the Act of Parliament has stated that you
shall not be at liberty to prose auything until you have shown
your service of the notice of objection was valid. Now in the
present case it clearly is not.
Mr. ROWCROFT submitted that the fact of the voter residing
without the limits prescribed was quite sufficient.
Mr. MYLNE was of a contrary opinion, and disallowed the
objection.
Mr. ROWCROFT observed, that there would come a case
before the Court, in which the party was described as residing
at St. Petersburgh ; and in that case it was of course impos-
sible to serve the party with the notice of objection. If what
the Learned Gentleman had held was to be considered the
proper course to adopt, in many instances persons would have
votes that ought not.
Mr. MYLNE—I cannot help it, it is the fault of the Act.
Mr. ROWCROFT—The Act is a bungling affair in many re-
spects.
Mr. MYLNE—I must interpret it as I find it, however faulty
it may be.

Before R. D. CRAIG, Esq., in the Court of Common Pleas.
The Overseers, Collectors, and other officers of the various
parishes were in attendance, with their books with the lists of
claims and objections. The Overseers were sworn as to the
correctness of the lists, and that they had in all respects com-
plied with the provisions of the Act of Parliament. The
Learned Gentleman said this day would be occupied in re-
ceiving the lists, and on Monday he would commence their
revision, taking the parishes in alphabetical order.
Messrs. ROWCROFT and ROGERS attended as agents for the
Conservative party.
Messrs. TROTT and HEPPELL were the agents for the Li-
berals.

In some of the parishes there were neither claims nor objec-
tions. The overseers of those parishes were informed that
they were discharged from further attendance.

A gentleman of the name of Lloyd, who resides at
Camden-town, was passing along the end of Tottenham-
court-road on Wednesday morning, with a young lady in a
gig, when the way was impeded for a few minutes by a
mud-cart on the near side of the road, and a chain of ve-
hicles on the off side. While the gig was detained, some
dirt was thrown on the lady twice, and on its being done a
third time IVIr. Lloyd detected one of the fellows himself.
He alighted to know the cause of so gross an offence, when
the fellow, supported by his fraternity, menaced Mr. Lloyd,
who from the irritation of the moment turned to, and in
about five minutes gave the dastardly offender such a
thrashing as will probably deter him from committing a si-
milar offence for some time. His head was hideously dis-
figured, to the no small amusement of the spectators, when
Mr. Lloyd stepped into his gig and drove off amidst shouts
of applause.

STEAM PADDLES.—A recent experiment has
proved that the supply of water to the paddle-wheels of
steam-vessels does not come from the surface of the water,
or from the sides of the space through which the wheel
moves at each evolution in the water but from beneath.
It was proved as follows :—A steam-vessel was moored in
deep water, the surface of which was for a considerable
distance round strewed (it being calm weather) with saw-
dust. The engine was then put in motion, and it was ob-
served that the sawdust all around, and everywhere, except
immediately behind the paddle-wheels, remained undis-
placed.
SIMILE.—A preacher, while descanting on the im-
possibility of the sinner retracinc, his steps after he had
gone a certain length, used the following striking illustra-
tion of his position :—" My brethren, it it a very easy task
to row a skiff over Niagara falls, but a tremendous job to
row it back again I"—American Paper.
