EXAMPLES.

COUNTY REGISTRATION.
The Chairman of the Anti-Corn-Law League having offi-
cially announced that it is the intention of the Council strictly to
adhere to the resolution of not interfering further with the registra-
tion of County Voters, but at the same time strongly recommending
that an appeal should be made to the Liberal and Free Trade party
to mature and defend the cla!ms a voters made through their ex-
ertions; arrangemeßts have beet/ Made for continuing the London
County Registration Offices; and as funzis will be required to defray
the necessary expenses, it is hoped that All Liberals and Free Tra-
ders will aid the committee by a subscriptiol2 to the fund. As it is
found that all the votes obtained through the agency of the Anti-
Corn-Law League are objected to, it is desjtai.,le that this appeal
should be promptly responded to.the Bankers,
Subscriptions may be paid at the offices, or at
Messrs. Drewett and Fowler, Princes-street, Bank, tO be placed to the
account of " The Liberal and Free Trade County Registratio2 Fund."

The ROYAL GEORGE HOTEL, situate in the High-street,
Southampton, within a short distance of the pier, with a tap,
stabling, and premises in the rear ; let on lease for fourtenn years, at
a rent of 1911. per annum. Valuable and extensive Premises at

boiler factory, wharf, yards, &c. ; held on lease till 1850, at a renf
of 1411. per annum. The Ship-building yard, with three launches

pability for improvement, and affords great scope for the exercise of
commercial enterprise in the formation of docks, wharfs, ware-
houses, factories, &c. It- is exempt by statute from the port dues of
Southampton, and in the hands of a spirited capitalist or public com-
pany, aided by the judicious outlay of a moderate amount, could not
fail to be greatly enhanced in value, owing to the rapidly-increasing
commerce of Southampton, where a very large portion of the pas-
senger and goods traffic of the kingdom is now concentrated, and
which must inevitably increase with the extension of the railway
system, which will shortly place this flourishing town and port in
direct communication with all parts of the world.
