REGISTRATION OF VOTERS.

GREENWICH.
(Before Mr. BaocasfAN.)
Matthias W. Attwood, candidate at the last election to
represent the borough, claimed to vote for premises situated
in Deptford.—Allowed.

W. Gosling's occupation having been proved, it was ob-
jected that, his rates having been compounded for by his
Landlord, he was not entitled to vote.—Name struck out.

J. P. Robinson.--On this case a question arose as to
whether the residence of the claimant, Camden-town, was
within seven miles of the borough.
Mr. Sandom having proved the distance, the claim was
allowed.

Wm. Carpenter was opposed on the ground that his
assessed taxes were not paid on the 20th July.

Mr. BROCKMAN decided that the claimant had not paid
all taxes due from him in respect of the premises for which
he claimed to vote, and therefore his vote was disallowed.

J. Beardmore was objected to on the ground that he did
not occupy as owner or tenant. The occupation was proved,
and the rate-books proved his being rated for twelve months
previous to July last, when it appeared that he was rated
jointly with the Directors of the General Steam Navigation
Company.
Mr. BROCKMAN held this was not an occupation, and the
vote was struck out.

Several other persons' names were struck out, who claimed
in respect of houses the rates of which were paid by their
landlords.

MEETING OF MIDDLESEX

MAGISTRATES.

COUNTY DAY.

1,515

Yesterday being county day, the attendance of magis-
trates was more numerous than ever we recollect to have
seen it, there being no less than ninety-six at one time
in and about the Court. The principal business of the day
was to proceed to ballot for the election of a distriet sur-
veyor, under the Building Act, for the parish of St. George
in the East, and St. Botolph-without, Aldgate, and to con-
sider the letter of Joseph Hume, Esq., M.P., " relative to
the Bill presented by him to Parliament in the last session,
for establishing a council and auditors in every county, for
the better management of county-rates, and for amending
the laws relative thereto." The names of the candidates
for the surveyorship are Mr. Richard Cromwell Carpen-
ter, Myddleton-square, Clerkenwell ; Mr. James Davies, of
Devonshire-square ; Mr. Henry Flower, Upper Bedford-
place ; and Mr. William Grellier, 20, Wormwood-street.
In the course of the morning Mr. Davies resigned the
contest.

Mr. M‘WILLiAm commented with much severity on two
of the candidates being the near relations of two of the
magistrates on the bench, and passed a high eulogium on
the talents of Mr. Grellier.

While the ballot was going on the other business was
proceeded with.
