MIDDLESEX REGISTRATION.

The Middlesex County Revision. commences at the
White Conduit House, Islington, on Monday next. The
newly-formed register, in all probability, will be much
increased from the unprecedented number of new claims
made. The Reform party have been on the alert, and
their claims are two to one in their favour.

The Tory party, to counterbalance their opponents'
exertions, have served nearly fifteen hundred objections,
three hundred and fifty of which are objected to by the
overseers, and consequently will be decided before ser-
vice of notice can be proved ; two hundred have been
withdrawn, leaving the Liberal party nine hundred
and sixty to defend. We are pleased to notice that the
Reform Registration Club, with their limited means,
have served eight hundred objections, and will put
76S of the Tory party, who are believed to ba disquali-
fied, to the proof of their tight to, vote. We regret to
state that scarcely one of the Whig aristocracy of the
count, has contributed to the funds in aid of the una-
voidable heavy expenses the Committee are put to in
defending the Liberal constituency, although repeated
applications have been made. We call their attention
to the following analysis, to learn what has been done,
and what there is to do during the ensuing revision.
The following table will show the number of new
claims made, and the objections taken by each party to
support or efend.

CITY OF WESTMINSTER REGIS..

_
TRATION.
(Before Mr. ARNOLD.)
The revision of the lists for the parish of St. George,
Hanover-square, was continued yesterday.
The Hon. Wm. Booth Grey, the brother of the Earl
of Stamford and Warrington, claimed to vote in re:pect
of a house in Charles-street, Berkeley which he
had let to Captain Martin, but in which he had retained
a bed room, in which a servant of his slept, together
with a store-room.

Mr. HyGGETT, on behalf of the Reformers, contended
that this was not a sufficient occupation to satisfy the
statute, and that if it was Mr. Grey did not reside within
the limits of the city, the Hon. Gentleman living at
Berkhampstead.
From the evidence of a Mr. Harford it appeared that
Mr. Grey had apartments in the house of his brother,
the Earl of Stamford, to which lie had at all time ac-
cess, and to which he could bring his lady and family.
Mr. SCORE, on behalf of Mr. Grey, submitted that this
was sufficient residence to give Mr. Grey a vote, even if
the occupation by him of the house in Charles-street
should be held to be bad.

Mr. ARNOLD was clearly of opinion that sufficient re-
sidence had been proved, but with respect to the occupa-
tion of the house in Charles-street, he would reserve his
judgment.
