THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY.)

--,--
The Court this morning commenced the revision of
the lists of the Livery. The first, in alphabetical order,
was the Apothecaries Company, but with respect to
which no claim or objection was made. The next was
the Armourers and Braziers.
Mr. QUIN, on behalf of Mr. Daniel Towers Shears,
claimed to have his place of residence altered in the list,
he being there described as of Bank-side, Lambeth,
whereas his place of abode was at No. 4, Lawn, South
Lambeth.
Mr. MYLNE did not see the necessity of sending in
a claim for an alteration of the residence.
Mr. Quin observed that it was the opinion of Mr.
Travers, of the Reform Club, that the place of business
was not the place of abode, and in the course of the re-
vision he (Mr. Quin) thought some very good men
would be struck off the lists because their place of abode
happened to be not within seven miles of the City of
London.
On the revision of the list of the Bakers' Company,
Henry Greely, described as of Goswell-street, was ob-
jected to by the Tories on the ground that he had
changed his residence.
It appeared from the evidence of the witnesses that
the notice of objection was signed by " Chamberlain
Hinchcliffe, Stratford-grove," that Mr. Hinchcliffe had
not lived there since last July twelve months, but that
in the list of the Dyers' Company he was described as
of that place, although now residing at 6, Vicarage-ter-
race, Stratford.
Mr. Trott therefore submitted that the objection to
Thomas Greely must fall to the ground, inasmuch as
the Reform Act required that the objector should state
his real place of abode.
Mr. Quin—lle could only put the description that
is in the list which entitles him to vote.
Mr. Trott—l have signed my notices of objections
differently ; and therefore all your objections arc wrong
or mine are.—(A laugh.)
Mr. MYLNE did not think it very material one way
or the other.
Mr. Trott said that by the 48th section of the Re,
form Act, it was provided that " every person who shal
object to any other person as not having been entitled
on the last day of July then next preceding to have his
name inserted in any such livery list, shall, on or before
the 25th day of August in the present and in every
succeeding year, give to such other person, or leave at
his usual place of abode, a notice in writing, according
to the form numbered 3 in the said schedule K."
In the form of such notice were the words "place of
abode." It was admitted that Mr. Hinchcliffe's place
of abode was not at Stratford-grove, and the terms of
the notice of objection, therefore, were not according to
the Act of Parliament. By another part of the Act,
the Revising Barrister was expressly precluded from
expunging the name of a voter, unless the regular
notice was given ; for the words were " and such Bar-
rister shall retain on the list of voters for such city or
borough the names of all persons to whom no objection
shall have been made in the manner hercinbefore
mentioned."
Mr. MYLNE.—I suppose all the objections are signed
by Mr. Hinchcliffe.
Mr. Quin said they were ; and he would admit that
Mr. Hinchcliffe did not live in Stratford-grove either
now or at the time of signing the notice, but in his
opinion it was not very important.
Mr. MYLNE—It would be rather important if I were
to decide all your objections were bad.—(Laughter.)
Mr. Trott remarked that a party had applied
to them to know where the objector lived, because he
wanted to pull his nose (laughter), but they could not
inform him, as a wrong place of abode had been given.
Mr. Quin heard the simple answer to the objection
made by Mr. Trott was, that Mr. Hinchcliffe had no
right whatever to object to the vote of any party, unless
lie gave his name and residence as it appeared in the
list. The object in giving the address was that the
party might see the objector's name was on the list.
Mr. MYLNE observed that if the objection of Mr.
Trott had not involved a great many cases he should
have disposed of it summarily.
Mr. Quin contended that the description of Cham-
berlain Hinchcliffe being precisely the Fame as in the
list of the Dyers' Company, the terms of the Act of
Parliament had been sufficiently complied with.
Mr. Wansey said that it had been decided over and
over again that the omission of the residence was fatal
to the objection, and surely it could 'not be said that
a misstatement did not invalidate the notice. Many
parties had applied to him as Secretary of the Reform
Association, to know where Mr. Hinchcliffe lived, and
some of whom wished to issue process against him, and
others to inflict more summary punishment.
Mr. Trott observed that Mr. Hinchcliffe had ac-
tually sent in a claim to be inserted in the list of the
I Dyers' Company, on account of changing his place of
abode.
Mr. MYLNE was clearly of opinion that Mr. flinch-
cliffe had sufficiently described himself within the mean-
ing of the Reform Act. lie was not prepared to say
that either description would not have been sufficient.
All that was wanted was such a description as would
enable parties to ascertain whether the person objected
to was the person described in the list of voters. Here
there was no possibility of misleading, because it was
found there was a Chamberlain Hinchcliffe described in
the list of the Dyers' Company in the same way as he
was described in the notice of objection. It ap-
peared to him (Mr. Mylne) to be not very
material, because no real m,stake could be made.
If there had been any intentional error the case
would have been different. All that the Court
had to attend to in the case of a liveryman
was to see that he was properly described in the list.
He was therefore of opinion the notice was a good
notice.
The further consideration of the case of Greely was,
however, postponed till to-morrow, in order to afford
time to prove that he resided within the seven miles, it
having been stated to the Learned Barrister that he
still lived in the neighbourhood of Goswell-street.
Another objection having been made by the Conser-
vatives to the vote of a Liveryman, the notice being
signed in the same manner as in the preceding case,
Mr. Trott said that it would probably save time
instead of objecting, to the notice in every case, he at
once protested against them, and he hoped the Revising
Barrister would take a note of such protest.
Mr. MYLNE said he would do so.
In the course of the day similar objections to the
notice were made by the clerks of different Companies,
but they were told by the Learned Gentleman that ho
was of opinion the notices were sufficiently correct for
all the purposes of the Act.

is generally war."
It talks of the noble exertions of the Cabinet to
uphold nobly the honour and interests of France
mitten in all its acts, in the levies of men, in the
preparations of every kind, and in the ordonnances
of extraordinary credits by which it so courageously
engages its responsibility. Now what is all this
pretended fuss and pretended alarm about ? There
may arise, says M. THIERS through his Journal,
a consequence from the e-ecution of the treaty the
most threatening to Fiance, and this dreaded com-
sequence is the partition of Turkey. To suppose
that England would be a party to any such plan is
to betray the most complete ignorance of the whole
course of her policy, and is directly opposed to the
object of the treaty, which M. 'l'l-HERS and his
Journalist know. We have no hesitation whatever in
accusing the French Minister, through his Journal,
of keeping up the warlike excitement of the French
for some sinister purpose. Let us at the same time
tell him that he is thereby making himself responsi-
ble to all the peaceable inhabitants of Europe, and
if he become odious to them, who now constitute
the great interest of the world, by detected foolery,
he will soon be driven back to his original obscurity.
We regret to see the Journal des Debuts joining
in the absurd cry, and endeavouring to excite a feel-
ing against England on account of the even{ in
Spain. At present the French party and French
interests are not:in favour in Spain, and the Debuts,
instead of attributing that to the conduct of the pre-
sent Ambassador, in advising and acting against
public opinion in Spain, refers it all to the Duke of
VITToRIA, surrounded by English officers? Must
we, on the same principle, attribute the conduct of
MEHEMET ALI, or his attempts to encroach on
the SULTAN, to the French officers who surround
Lim ? We will not imitate the bad example of
the Debars, because we are desirous of cultivating
peace between the French and English. We are
sure that it will not be broken, notwithstanding the
efforts of those statesmen and journalists who act
and write more from
on recollections
than a due appreciation of the present peaceful
habits of both nations.

left on the Ist inst. ; it was anticipated in the French

which had not been made public when the express left.

" GENTLEMEN,—TIIC President has referred to this
department your letter of the 24th inst., communicating
a resolution unanimously adopted at a meeting of the
Israelites in the city of New York, held for the
purpose of uniting in an expression of sentiment
on the subject of the prosecution of their brethren
in Damascus. By his directions I have the honour
to inform you that the heart-rending scenes
which took place at Damascus had previously
been brought to the notice of the President by a commu.
nication from our Consul at that place ; and that, in
consequence thereof, a letter of instructions was imme-
diately written to our Consul at Alexandria, a copy of
which is herewith transmitted for your satisfaction :
" About the same time that our Charge d'Affaires at
Constantinople was instructed to interpose his good
offices on behalf of the oppressed and persecuted race of
the Jews in the Ottoman dominions, among whose
kindred arc found some of the most worthy and patriotic
of our own citizens, and the whole subject which ap-
peals so strongly to the universal sentiments of justice
and humanity, was earnestly recommended to his zeal
and discretion."
" I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
"JOHN FORSYTH."
