BOW STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

John Simpson was charged before Mr. HALLS with
extorting money from, and using threatening language to,
Mr. Davis, the jeweller, of Middle-row, Holborn.
The prosecutor deposed that the prisoner, who is his
cousin, called at his house on Sunday, in his absence ;
he made a great noise, and continued ringing his bell, till
the servant gave him half a crown. He then went away,
but returned in the evening very drunk, and used very
violent language, threatening to do for the witness, unless
he Well further supplied with money. He was obliged, in
order to get quit of him, to give him three shillings. Yes-
terday he presented himself again, and sat himself down
in the shop, declaring that if money was not given to him
he would break all the glass he could lay his hands on.
The obstruction to his business was so great that witness
was obliged to give him in charge. He was allowed an
annuity of V. a week by his father, on condition that he
would remain down at Hastings, but that did not seem to
please him, for he was continually coming up to town and
annoying all his friends. So great bad it now become as
to make hit (witness's) file quite miserable.
The prisoner, in his defence, said he hail been under the
fluence of drink. He was very sorry for his conduct,
and if Mr. Davis would only now forego proceedings
against him, be would at once leave town for Hastings
and remain there.

Mr. Davis said such promises had been so often made
and broken, that he could put no faith in the present.
The Magistrate held the prisoner to bail; and as he
was so incorrigible, he would advise M F.D. to exhibit articles
of the peace against him at the next Sessions, otherwise
be would be liable to the same annoyances in the course
of a week, as the prisoner would then be discharged if no
one appeared against him.

M ARYLEBONE COURT FOR THE REV]

SION OF THE LIST OF VOTERS.

Yesterday Mr. COVENTRY and Mr. SANDYS re-
sumed their sittings for the revision of the lists of
voters for the borough of Marylebone, in the Paro-
chial Court-house, Oxford-street.
Sir Samuel Whalley, M.P., came into the Court
in which Mr. COVENTRY presided, and said that he
attended in consequence of having been waited upon
by Mr. Sawyer, whose claim had been disallowed on
the preceding day, on the ground that, offer his
name had been omitted by the overseers in the lists
posted on the church doors, he had neglected to
give notice to those officers, calling upon them to
insert his name. The Hon. Member proceeded to
observe that he had looked into the section of the
Act (the 50th section) upon which the judgment of
the Court seemed to have been based, and he
thought, taking it with the other provisions, it was
capable of an entirely different construction from
that which the Court had adopted. It never could
have been in the contemplation of the Legislature,
that when the name of an elector was omitted by
the lathes of the parochial authorities, in default of
giving notice to them he would be disfranchised.
Mr. COVENTRY said that, since deciding the point
yesterday, he had discussed it with his Learned Col-
league, Mr. Sandys, and the result of that consi-
deration was, that they had determined to construe
the Act liberally, as otherwise a great injustice
would be done to many individuals who were simi-
larly circumstanced with Mr. Sawyer, and therefore,
as he had not yet signed the list, the name of that
gentleman would be restored.

Sir Samuel Whalley thanked Mr. Coventry for
his attention, and withdrew.

REGISTRATION OF VOTERS FOR
WESTMINSTER.

Yesterday Messrs. KEENE and THOMPSON, the
Revising Barristers, sat at the Sessions-house,
Westminster, for the purpose of revising the lists
of voters for the several parishes in the city of
Westminster.

Mr. STOCKDALE, the publisher of some notorious
works, claimed to have his name inserted in the list
of voters for St. James's parish, and his claim was
opposed by Mr. Buzzard, the vestry-clerk of the
parish.

It appears that the poor-rates in the parish of St.
James are charged at 3s. in the pound, but of this
sum only 2s. are appropriated to the relief of the
poor, and the remaining shilling is applied to de-
fray the expenses of the police and other purposes
connected with the administration of the affairs of
the parish. Mr. Stockdale, being aware of this
subdivision of the sum levied under the name of
" poor-rate," went to the collector and tendered 2s.
in the pound on the amount of his rental, and upon
this ground contended that he was entitled to be
registered as a voter.

'Mr. KEENE, after consulting with Mr. Thomp-
son, and referring to the Act disallowed the claim,
because the local Act, under which the vote was
levied, declared that the police and county rates
should be levied as poor-rates, and it was only sub-
divided for the satisfaction of the inhabitants.
