REGISTRATIONS.—( THIS DAY.)
CITY OF LONDON.
(Before Mr. T. Y. M'CuarsTrE.)
The names of Francis and Alfred Pegley, of 46,
Lime-street, were objected to by Mr. Brown on the
following grounds :—lt appeared that a Mr. Dunsford
was the owner of three houses which were situated in
a small court, the entrance to which was through a
gate. A portion of one of these houses was in the
occupation of the persons objected to, and used by
them as a counting-house ; the remainder of the pre-
mises was occupied by the landlord, the outer gate
being entirely under the control of the landlord, who
ordered it to be closed and locked by the porter,
who was his servant, at dusk in the evening.
Mr. Brawn argued that, upon the authority of a
case, " Pitt v. Smedley," the name ought not to be
allowed to remain on the list, on the ground of the
parties not having an exclusive right of entrance.
Mr. S. Smith, on the other hand, contended that
if such a case were to be allowed, it would have the
effect of disfranchising all persons whose occupation
or residence was within any of the Inns of Court,
or even in any of the public squares, such as
Charter House-square, the entrances to which were
through gates which were locked at certain hours.
The COURT was of opinion that the present case was
similar to that of Pitt and Smedley, and expunged
the names.

Mr. S. Smith thought that it would be a proper
case for taking before the Court of Common Pleas.

Mr. Brown thought it desirable to have the point
permanently settled, but did not think that the pre-
sent was a proper case for appeal, in consequence of
its similarity to that of Pitt v. Smedley, upon which
a decision had already been given by that Court.
Mr. CHRISTIE said that he was perfectly helpless
in the matter, and concurred in the desirability of
not making a case of the present.
The two names were then expunged from the list.

DEATH IN THE PUBLIC BATHS AND WASH-
HOUSES IN WHITECRAPEL.—Yesterday afternoon an
inquest was held at the Royal Pavilion public-house,
New-road, Whitechapel, before Mr. Baker, on the body
of Thomas Brian, aged 70 years, a pauper of Stepney
Union. It appeared that on Monday afternoon last the
deceased went to the public baths, Goulston-square,
Whitechapel, and had a private warm bath. Some time
afterwards one of the men employed at the baths found
the deceased lying at the bottom of the bath quite dead.
Mr. Cheshire, a surgeon, was called in, who said the
deceased bad died from an affection of the heart. He
considered his death had been accelerated by the warmth
of the bath, which had caused an increased action of the
heart. Verdict in accordance with the medical testi-
mony.
Upon the breaking up of the Bank Court yesterday
it was announced that first-class paper not having more
than two months to run will now be received for dis-
count at the minimum rate of 51 per cent., this rate
having hitherto been limited to bills maturing on or
before the 17th of October. For bills beyond two months,
and not exceeding 95 days, the rate of 6 per cent. is to
continue.
