10,114: bags Mauritius, 3,134 bags Bengal, and 1,592 bags 30

ing the Pernambuco), but went off very irregular from former
prices for the good and fine descriptions, whilst the low and
mid sorts must be quoted fully 6d to ls'6d cheaper, the
greatest reducti,,ti being upon the very lowest

CITY of LONDON REGISTRATION
(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. ARNOLDOn taking his seat this morning, Sr.M Arnold, the
Levis .ing Barrister for the City of London, delivered
the f.ollowing decision:—
In going over the list of voters for the parish of St.
Pe'cer-le-Poor yesterday, I observed the name of a
pv,rty, with the nature of the qualification and the de-
!sf:ription of the property stated in a similar manner
k.o those of Mr. Catherwood, and who had been ob-
.cted to, and whose name had been expunged. The
name in question stands thus:—Robert Lewin Holt,
Upper Norwood, counting house Old Broad-street, being
a successive occupation with 3, Crown-court.
There was no objection against Mr. Holt.
In Mr. Catherwood's case the description of the quali-
fication stood thus:—

,------, (counting-house) Warnford-court, in:suc-
cerssive occupation with No. 3.
It was proved that the counting-house he now occupies
vas at No. 1, %Varnford.court, and that he moved there
from another counting-house No. 3, in the same court.
I thought I had power to insert "No. 1," as the
number of the qualifying property, now in the occupation
of the party, and also that the description " No. 3,"
might be "commonly understood" to mean No. 3, Warn-
ford-court, and that, so far, the party was not prejudiced
by these mistakes; but I thought, that as there was no
description of the nature of the qualification at No. 3,
whether it was a " house" or a " counting honse," &c.,
that this was an omission which I could not supply, and
that
Gibbsthe case fell within the pi inciple of Bartlett and
(1 Bar. and Am., 9S), and I therefore expunged
the name
(In dealing with Mr. Holt's case, I found it
necessary
i'o or.my own guidance, to look at the powers
n glven by the 4th section of the Gth Vic., c.
18, by which it is oftened, that " wherever the place of
abode, or the nature
h the qualification, or the local or
other description of t wholly omitted, the bare property of any person shall be
such person from such liiiss
list,
shall expunge the name of
,less the matter or matters
so omitted be supplied to rister before he shall have completed the satisfaction of such bar-
such list, in which case the revision of
the name in such list," and as shall then and there inserttrred
to supply the omission of the natureeovifdtTece was
sification
or the description of the property occupied byq Mr. Holt,
at No. 3, Crown-court, I was prepared at once to ex-
punge the name. The part of the section was not
brought under my notice in Mr. Catherwood's case, but
upon consideration, I am now satisfied that its provi-
sions apply to such a case, and that my former decision
was incorrect, and I am the more glad that I
have had an opportunity of re-considering the
matter, as otherwise, there having been no notice
of appeal, in that case Mr. Catherwood would in my
00111011, have been improperly expunged from the list.
Having no doubt that I might make the alteration, and
read the description in the list in the names I formerly
mentioned, the only question was whether I could supply
the omission of the nature of the qualification with re-
gard to the premises occupied by him at 3, Warnford-
court—viz., " counting house," and inasmuch as that
omission was supplied to my satisfaction, I think I ought
to have inserted the same, and that the name should have
been retained. I shall therefore re-insert it in the list,
making the necessary alterations. On theer hand,
in Mr. Holt's case, if the matter omitted is nototh now sup-
plied, his name must be expunged.

ROBBERY AT BIRAIINGLIAM.—A p
of late
consisting of spoons of various kinds quantit ,
knives and forks,, &e., amounting in value to upwards of 1001, was stolen
from the Stork Hotel, in this town, on Saturday night
last, between the hours of ten and eleven o'clock. It
appears that the servant whose duty it was to collect the
house plate, before convoying it to the safe in which it
was usually deposited at night, left a basket containing
a portion of the articles on a sideboard in the ball, oppo-
site the bar, but near the entrance door of the hotel.
She then went into some other rooms to collect the re-
sidue of the plate, and on her return missed the basket,
and immediately called the attentiuu of the Misses Smith
to the loss. Search being made, neither the basket nor
its contents could be found. Information was imme-
diately given to the police, but up to the present time
they have not succeeded in obtaining any clue that is
likely to lead to the detection of the thieves. Suspicion
has fallen upon two strangers who came into the
house
a short time previously to the robbery, and proceeding
to the coffee-room, called for half a. pint of sherry. They
then commenced talking loudly and arguing, apparently
as if they were commercial men transacting some busi-
ness. When they had drank their wine, one o f them
ten Messrs. d
ered a 5L note of the bank of Taylor and
in
Lloyd's in payment. The bar-maid, however, not know
flg
lined either of the parties, and suspecting all was notrighhetr,
taking the note, on which the party paid
Is. Gd., after having assured her that the note
mr'asnquwiates
correct. During this transaction the other
peso
in the passage and about the door, and it
is supposed._
that in the interval the plate-basket was removed

INDIAaI CORN.—It will be remembered that an im-
portation was noticed, several weeks since, of a large
quantity of Indian. corn, in the ear, or attached to the
stem or cob, amounting to 28,000 heads of the article, by
a vessel named the Richard Cobden, which had arrived
from South America (Cuba, we believe), and was cora-
mented upon, in a succinct manner, with respect to the
singularity of the importation of the article in such a
state in connexion with the remarkable name of the ves-
sel in which the same was imported. The whole of the
parcel has remained in bond until the present time, and
the owners now requiring the delivery of the corn for
home consumption, a difficulty arose as to the mode of
meeting the same for the duty to which it is liable, viz.,
one shilling per quarter, which of course it was impos-
sible to do in its existing state, and on an application
having been made to the revenue authorities for the pur-
pose, permission was given, in this particular instance,
fur the whole quantity to be thrashed in the warehouse,
in order that the grain might be detached from the huge
husk, cob, or stalk, for the purpose of being metered for
the duty duo thereon. As this was the first importation
of Indian corn in this remarkable state, these particulars
of the operation allowed to be performed in the matter
will be interesting and of importance.

CAPTURE or A WHALE.--(Extract of a letter from

It is sixty-five feet long, and twenty-four feet broad,
114 d it has a fin about ten feet from the tail on the back.
11,115 whales about which I have read are not described
