COOKS' COMPANY.

In this Company an objection was made, on the part of the
Reformers, to the vote of Mr. Keen, of Garlick-hill, on the
ground that his place of residence was not within seven miles
of London ; but failing in proving that, it appearing that Mr.
Keen's residence was at Streatham, Mr. Mylne allowed the
vote.

REGISTRATION OF VOTERS.

(THIS DAY.)

ijefore r,. )
Mr. MYLNE, on ittt jng fits seat thij morning, stated that
there were two cases in which he reserved his Judgment on
Saturday, in which objections had been made relative to the
attfreient; of the notice; he had carefully considered those
eases, and .;;.a.; eior4n that the notices were not sufficient,
and he should therefore alith.k the votes.
Mr. ItoweitorT wished to I:29‘v if the Court intended to
lay it down as a rule, that where a noti^@ had been served ac-
cording to the address ri-tarlled in the list delivered out by the
Clerk of a Company, and that Voted not to be the address
of the party, that that was not a good aetvice,
Mr. 11YLNE had not decided any such point; he reserved
that for further consideration: The Learned Gentleman said
there were also some cases relative fo notices put in the Post-
office, in which it was admitted that, according to the course
adopted at the Post-office, the delivery could not take place
on the 25th. He wished to know from Mr. lioreroft whe-
ther he had any authorities on the subject ? If he had, Mr.
Craig and himself were anxious the point should be a,greel.
If he had not, he should at once overrule the objections.
Mr. ROWCROFT said that he had several authorities upon the
subject which he thought were conclusive.
Mr. MYLNE said that as his learned colleague and himself
would hear the point argued in the course of the day.
CARPENTERS' COMPANY.
Two persons, of the name of Allen, members of the Car-
penters' Company, whose votes were struck out on Saturday in
consequence of not being in attendance, applied this morning
to have their votes replaced on the list, stating that as the
notices of objection they had received did not specify any day
they were to attend, they were not aware that it was necessary
for them to do so.
Mr. ROWCROFT submitted that the votes, having been once
struck off, could not be restored.
Mr. LITLNE thought otherwise, and allowed the votes.
To the names in the lists of the Clothworkers' Company,
the Coach-makers' Company, and the Coal-meters' Company
there were no objections.

from the delightful pen of Geoffrey Crayon, Gentleman.
You remember his " Pride of the Village," and " Broken

COMB-MAKERS COMPANY.

Robert Carter, of the Minories, was objected to by the Con-
servatives, and Thomas Johnson, of Aldgate, by the Refor-
mers—the votes were allowed in each case.
No objections were made to any of the names of the
Coopers' Company or the Bowyers' Company.
(Before Mr. CRAIG.)
The overseer of the parish of Holy Trinity the Less ap-
peared to deliver in the list of voters for that parish. In
answer to questions put by Mr. Rowcroft, he said he was the
overseer who made out the lists. He went to the house of the
others, but did not find them, and he put down their names at
the bottom of the list of which he took copies, and put up the
original on the church door. It was taken down the first
night. He made another copy, which he signed with his own
name, but he did not put down the names of the other officers.
He had no direct authority from the other overseers to sign for
them, but did it because he could not see them, and he wished
the lists put up.
Mr. ROWCROFT submitted, that under such circumstances
the list could not be received. In no respect had the provisions
of the Act been complied with. The 44th ssction distinctly
said " That the lists shall be signed by the overseers." The
witness had proved that even the original list was not so; it
had their names, but they were put down by him
without any authority. Then again after the original list was
lost, the one which was put up had the name
of only one overseer out of four. Even supposing that the
original list was a good one, it was perfectly clear that it had
not been exhibited on the Church doors for two Sundays. He
was sorry that so many people should suffer, but it was impor-
tant to all parties that the question should be settled.
Mr. CRAIG, without calling upon the other side, said he did
not think that sufficient had been made out to justify him in
rejecting the list. It was clear that there had been very great
irregularity, and if it was not checked, it might give rise to
very grave questions. It was clear that the Act required the
lists to be signed by the overseers, or a majority of them, but
he thought the language of the Act was directory, and though
not strictly complied with, still he could not reject the list.
It was sworn that this was a true copy of the original list,
which bore the names of the whole of the overseers, so that to

the parish it was the same as if they had themselves signed it.
Overseers were bound to know the contents of the Act, but
they in general seemed wofully ignorant of their duty. In
few instances had they acted properly, or according to the di-
rections of the Act, which were that the original list should
be retained and produced to him, copies of it being printed for
exhibition on the churches and chapels.
The list was then received.
London, England, 1836-10-17

BOW-STREET.

The Spaniard, Gomez Pelayo, who is charged on sus-
picion of having transmitted some letters through the Post-
office containing fulminating silver, or some other com-
bustible, was again placed at the bar. Mr. Peacock, the
solicitor to the Post-office, said it was not his intention to
offer any further evidence against the prisoner at this office ;
but he had to pray that the Magistrate would send the
prisoner to Liverpool, where it was intended to prefer an
indictment against him at the sessions for the misdemeanor
alleged against him. This having been complied with, the
prisoner was removed from the bar, and subsequently con-
veyed to the House of Correction.
At the evening sitting George Woodman, the driver of
one of the omnibuses on the Paddington-road, was charged
with having caused the death of Richard Cooper, a boy 12
years of age.
John Toe, the conductor of one of " Sanderson's Com-
pany's" omnibuses, stated, that on that evening as he was
riding behind his master's omnibus, the deceased being also
on the step, the prisoner was driving his omnibus immedi-
ately behind the conveyance on which he was riding, and
on reaching Broad-street, St. Giles's, witness's carriage was
compelled to pull up, in consequence of some vehicles being
before it. The pole of the prisoner's carriage was at this
time close behind Mr. Saunderson's omnibus, and before
the prisoner could pull up, it came in contrct with the boy's
back, and literally drove his body through the door, his legs
protruding over the steps. Witness directly took up the
unfortunate boy, and conveyed him to the house of Mr.
Berkeleymore, a surgeon in the neighbourhood, but before
he was taken within the door, he groaned twice and died.
The prisoner declared that the occurrence was purely
accidental. He was unable to pull up his omnibus in time
to prevent the pole striking the deceased.

The prisoner, who appeared much dejected, was then re
moved from the bar.

MARYLEBONE.

John Cooper, a veterinary surgeon at Hayes, was charged
with having furiously and wantonly driven his cart against
the phaeton of John Lewis, Esq.. of No. 4, Great James-
street, Bedford-row.
The prisoner, who asserted that the occurrence was
purely accidental, was fined 205., and ordered to make
good the damages.

CHTT-CHAT ON LITERATURE.—The eclat which,
in former years, attended almost all the literary under-
takings of Mr. Colburn, seems to have been revived, on
his resuming publishing, in 1836. His first new novel,
" Mrs. Armytage," hay been justly pronounced one of the
best that has been published during the last half-dozen years.
" The Diary of a Desennuyee" has already arrived at a se-
cond edition ; and we are much mistaken if ;the beautiful
tale of " Violet," by an unknown author, does not reach a
third impression. Next week, the distinguished author of
" Vivian Grey" reappears under the same banners, with a
Love Story, entitled " Henrietta Temple," and about the
same time, Mr. Sulivan, the author of those beautiful
poems, " The Silent River," and " Faithful and Forsaken,"
will come forth with two volumes of his " Flittings," but it
is not only in this most attractive species of light literature
that our distinguished bibliopolist is about to arrest the at-
tention of the public. Among numerous other works of a
more solid kind, announced by him for publication, are
" Original Memoirs of the Court of George IV." by a de.
ceased Nobleman, and " The Posthumous Memoirs of a
Peeress," edited by the Lady Charlotte Bury.
Prince Esterhazy, immediately on his return to this
country, is to be invested with the insignia of a Knight
Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath.---Morning Post.
RA TTLIN THE REEFER, EDITED BY THE AU-
THOR OF " PETER SIMPLE."—This work has already re-
ceived the stamp of general approbation. In noticing its
second edition we have but to echo the public opinion.
The story is well wrought, full of excitement, and, with a
few exceptions, capitally constructed. It is a novel in which,
when the reader has once fairly embarked, he finds it impo-
sible to abandon until he has seen the hero through all his
adventures. These adventures the author assures us are all
true—he states himself an actor in them. We recommend
the work to those who have not yet perused it, f!,s equally
interesting and amusing.-21forning Chronicle,
London, England, 1836-10-17

SPAIN AND PORTUGAL.

The squadron under the command of Rear-Admiral Sir
Charles Paget, have received orders to store and victuO
for foreign service. This has given rise to much specula-
tion, but it is not understood that any other object is at
present contemplated beyond a somewhat protracted cruise.
Probably Sir Charles Rapt will visit Lisbon, and supply
ships on that station with stores. There are not six line-
of-battle ships at present in the Tagus, as reported in the
London papers, but the Hastings, Cornwallis, and Mala-
bar, will shortly be joined by the .Minden and Russell. if
the French fleet of five or six sail of the line, under Admi-
ral Hugon, should remain in the Tagus, the British force
in that quarter will probably be reinforced, as it has always
been the policy of this country to have a preponderating
force in that quarter.—Devonport Telegraph.
The Pluto steamer, Lieutenant Duffill, arrived here
yesterday, to take on board Ordnance stores for the North
Coast of Spain ; she is professedly a bad vessel, and her
engines ought to be turned over to a more efficient craft.
She will take from this division of Royal Marines fifteen
sergeants and nine fifers, who have been for some time
ready for embarkation ; and will also take two sergeant.::
one bombardier, two drummers, and eighteen gunners of
the Royal Marine Artillery, for the same destination.—
Hampshire Telegraph.
Yesterday 400 of the Royal Marines, and forty officers,
embarked in a steamer from Woolwich Dock-yard, for
Portugal. This force is to recruit the Marines in the Bri-
tish ships in the Tagus and Mediterranean.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING.

Newmarket, Sunday Afternoon.
The only races which possess any importance beyond the
moment are the Clearwell and Prendergast Stakes, the former
being included in Tuesday's appointments, and the latter in
Friday's. The field for the Clearwell is very short of public
runners, as we do not find in it more than two that have in
any way distinguished themselves, viz., Lord Exeter's Corban
and Lord Chesterfield's Venilia, the latter having been de-
feated not more than a neck in the dead heat race of three for
the July Stakes. Corban is also engaged in the Prendergast
Stakes, and will have to meet Lord Orford's Armenia, the
same filly that defeated him in the second heat for the July
Stakes. The field for this race is also very poor in public
runners, and from the nature of the other two year old en-
gagements in this and the Houghton Meeting it does not
seem likely that much light will be thrown on the Derby till
the Spring Meeting.
The course is not in the most desirable condition, some tre-

tences, from Edwin Bartlett, a surgeon, residing at Bir-
mingham.

The prisoner had formerly been in the prosecutor's cm-
p!oy as an assistant, but was discharged from that situation
between five and six years ago. On Sunday morning last
the prosentor received a letter, purporting to have been
written by Mr. Malins, a friend of his, describing that he
(Mr. Malins) had been kn:.cked down and robbed by three
ruffians, as he was returning. to -the ‘Veymouth 'Arms Ho-
tel, where-lie was stopping, and so seriously injured, that
Mr. South, of St. Thomas's, was called in to reduce the
Eaetures which he reccivel on the occasion. The writer
then requested the loan of 101., saying that it should be
returned when-he went into the country. The prosecutor
at once saw that the handwriting was the prisoner's, and
accordingly enclosed a Si. Mac, and having put the letter
contaiuing it into the post-office at Birmingham, be started
the same night by the mail that conveyed the inclosure,
and arrived at the Weymouth Arms a few minutes after the
prisoner had received it. Since the prisoner had been at.
the above hotel, he had passed by the name of Malins, and
represented that he was a medical man. When the prisoner
was taken into custody, the letter containing the Si, was
found in his possession.
He was found guilty.

Sentence—Transportation for

James Tucker and Allen Gorsdcn were indicted for dis-
turbing a congregation, assembled at a Dissenting meeting-
house at Clapham.

The proSecutor, who is the iweacher at the meeting-
house, commenced describing the conduct of the defendants
while he was preaching. They talked loud, threw up
stones, and committed other irregularities, which prevented
the service from going on.
In answer to a question from the CHAIRMAN, as to whe-
ther the meeting-house was duly licensed, he replied that
he was not in a Situation to prove such was the fact.
The COURT, therefore, decided that the prosecution could
not be sustained.

A man named Stoney was found guilty of obtaining 2/. 2s.
from a man named Clay, under the pretence of getting two
bills discounted for him.

The prisoner wa3 sentenced to six months' imprisonment
and hard labour.

John. Eves, described to be a man of some property,
was indicted for writit and sending several letters of a li-
bellous description to Mr. Harper, a solicitor, residing at
Kennlngon.

The Jury returned a N,erilict, of guilty, and the defend-
ant was fined one shilling, and ordered to enter into his
own recognizance in the sum of 2001., and find two sure-
ties of 100/., to keep the peace, and be of good behaviour
