FOR CITIES AND BOROUGHS.

If you are qualified to have a Vote for a City or Borough,
as an occupier of premises of the yearly value of 101., you
must pay, ON OR BEFORE the 20th OF JULY, all your Poor's
Rates and Assessed Taxes payable for those premises to the 6th
OF APRIL LAST, or you will not be entitled to have a
Vote.

It will be no excuse for you that the Collector of Taxes, or
Parish Officer, has not DEMANDED payMent.
Examine the List of Voters of the Parish or Township
where your premises are situated, which List will be placed
on the Church doors in that Parish or Township on the two
first Sundays in August, and which may also be seen any day
in the two first weeks in August, by applying to one of the
Overseers of that Parish or Township. Such Overseer is
bound to show the List, and allow it to be read, without being
paid anything.
If you find that your name is not on the List, you must,
on or before the 25th of August, deliver or send to one of the
Overseers of the proper Parish or Township, a claim to have
your name put on the List.
That claim must be in the proper form, and you, or some
one for you, must attend the Revising Barrister, to prove
your right.
If you find that your name is on the List, but that there is
some mistake as to your name, or as to the description of the
premises, in that case you must attend before the Revising
Barrister, to have the mistake corrected.

If you know of any bad Votes on any Overseers's List, you
should take care that these bad Votes be objected to, and this
must be done on or before the 25th of August. Examine also
the List of Objections, which will be placed on the doors of
the Church of the Parish or Township where your premises
are situate, on the two first Sundays in September, and which
may also be seen on application to any one of the Overseers of
that Parish or Township, on any day after the 4th of Septem-
ber, and before the 15th of September. Such Overseer is
bound to show the List, and allow it to be read, without being
paid anything.
If you find your name in this List of Objections, you, or
some one for you, must attend before the Revising Barrister,
to prove your right.
The following dates must be particularly attended to :
THE 20th OF JULY is the last day for PAYMENT
of Poor Rates and Assessed Taxes.

THE 25th OF AUGUST is the last day to claim for
yourself, if omitted from the List, or to object to any bad
Vote.

COUNTIES.
SUGGESTIONS FOR REGISTRATION ASSOCIA-
TIONS IN COUNTIES.

The object of such Associations is, first, to effect the most
complete registration that is practicable of all persons in the
Liberal interest, qualified by la*, to'vote at elections of Mem-
bers of Parliament for Counties ; secondly, to protect the
Liberal cause from any illegal registration by the Tories.
To effect these important ends on precisely the same plan in
all Counties, may, from various local circumstances, be diffi-
cult ; but, wherever it can be accomplished, a uniform system
is extremely desirable. For this purpose, it is recommended
that Central, District, and Local Committees should be
formed.

CENTRAL COMMITTEE.
In al Counties, or Divisions of Counties, a Central Com-
mittee should be formed, with which all District Committees
should act in unison.

The place of meeting of sucn Central Committee should be
the County Town (where there is one in the Division), or the
City or Town of the largest population.
Every Central Committee should have a Chairman, a De-
puty Chairman, a Secretary, and a Treasurer.
DUTIES OF CENTRAL COMMITTEE.

The duties of each Central oOMMitie; will be-
-Ist. Generally to superintend the entire registration of the
County or Division.
2nd. To insure the formation of a District Committee at
the most convenient place in each polling district.
3rd. To furnish each District Committee with all legal
forms for claims or objections in respect of votes.
4th. To circulate in each district, manuals and other infor
mation useful to Electors.

sth. To make adequate preparation in the week imme-
diately following the first Sunday in September, for the ap-
proaching revision of votes by the Barristers throughout the
whole County or Division.
An Annual Meeting of the Central Committee and a De
putation from each of the District Committees should take
place early in the month of Juno ; and such Annual Meeting
should be held in the most convenient locality. At such
Meetings the necessary arrangements for the Annual registra-
tion of the Counties may be considered, and planned.
A skeleton map of each County or Division should be printed
or lithographed by each Central Committee; distinguishing
the names and divisions of the parishes ; affixing to each parish
a number corresponding with the schedule on the margin of
the map ; and leaving columns for the entry of their respcc-
tive number of voters.
DISTRICT COMMITTEES.

In each polling district a District Committee should be
formed, which should have a Chairman, a Deputy Chairman.
a Secretary, and a Treasurer. Each District Committee should
form its own fund, restricted to its local objects.
DUTIES OF DISTRICT COMMITTEES.
The ditties of the District Committees are-
-Ist. Generally to superintend the registration in their sevcra
polling districts.
2d. To ensure throughout the whole of their District the for-
mation of such Local Committees for one or more parishes,
as may be found convenient.
3d. To furnish to each Local Committee legal forms of claim
and objection.
•tth. To circulate in each District useful manuals for electors.
sth. To promote and enforce, by every means in their power
Meetings of each Local Committee at the proper times,
and for the purposes hereinafter mentioned.
6th. To communicate to the Central Committee all the infor-

URIOUS BARGAIN.—Last week, a person pur-
chased some gooseberries from a green-grocer in the Pave-
ment, on the following novel terms. He bargained to have
four for the first halfpenny, eight for the second, sixteen for
the third, and so on doubling for each halfpenny to the amount
of sixpence. He therefore had 16,350 goseberries for his
sixpence. We think our readers willl be of opinion with us,
that the green-grocer who made this bargain must have been
green indeed, and well entitled to be called a gooseberry fool.
