(Before Mr. CRAIG.)
' At the sitting of the Court this morning the Revising
Barrister stated, for the information of all concerned, that
he would not go farther that day than the claims in the
list A, in which there were not less than 130 objections
entered.
The Learned Gentleman then intimated, that as there
were so many. objections to be disposed of, it would be
necessary to lay down some specific rule as to objectors,
and he wished it therefore to be understood that lie must
be satisfied that the persons appearing in support of ob-
jections appeared on behalf and by authority of the
elector whose name was signed to the notice of objection,
and also that the objector still adhered to his objection. It
was not necessary that such authority should be in writing,
but it should be specific.
Mr. Rowcroft, the Secretary of the City of London
Conservative Association, produced a written authority
from Mr. ThomaS Rogers, of 9, Devonshire-street; Bishops-
gate, . solicitor,, an elector of the city, who it appears has
objected to about '750. Mr. Rowcroft submitted that in-
dividuals acting for those against whcm objections were
made, and claimants, should, for the sake of the regularity
of the proceedings, also produce their authority to act,
otherwise any person in court might start up and appear for
whom he pleased, which would delay the proceedings to
great length.
Mr. CRAIG observed that the Act made no provision of
this kind with respect to claimants, though it did with re-
spect to objectors ; for though a man might have his name
placed on the list without his knowledge or wish, he was not
bound to exercise his privilege as a voter.
One of the first claimants whose claim was worth notice
was _ _ .

Mr. John Lewis, rho claimed a right to vote from the
occupation of a house, No. 30, Addle-street, in the parish
of St. Alban, Wood-street. From his examination it ap-
peared that he has been in the occupation of the house
since Midsummer 1834, at a rental of 521. a-year, and that
he had paid all rates between July, 1834; and July, 1835,
and also his assessed taxes. He produced the receipt for
the last quarter's poor-rates.
Mr. Rowcroft submitted that evidence of the payment
of the last rate was not conclusive that the party had paid
all his rates. The rate-books would be the best evidence.

The overseer produced the rate-books of the present
year, from which it appeared that Mr. Lewis had paid all
rates of this year, but owing to the absence of the vestry-
clerk, who is out of town, te rate-books of 1834 were not
produced.
Mr. Rowcroft now contended. that sufficient proof had
not been given of the payment of all the rates.
Mr. CRAIG thought that the claimant had sworn to hav-
ing paid all rates, and as no suspicion was cast on his evi-
dence, he had no doubt himself that the rates were paid,
and the only doubt which was on his mind was this—that
as Mr. Lewis's cross-examination had been interrupted by
his being obliged to attend on particular business elsewhere,
whether he ought not to defer the case to have the objector
resume his cross-examination.

The Overseer said it appeared from the books that the
rates for the last three quarters were paid, and the fair -in-
ference was that the rate for September, 1884, had also
been paid, but owing to the absence of the vestry-clerk the
Tate-book of that year could not be now produced.
Mr. Rowereft said, that nothing could be more easy than
for Mr. Lewis to produce his receipts. It was not meant
'to cast any imputation on Mr. Lewis, but he might be de-
ceived in thinking that he had paid all his rates. _ .

The case was ordered to stand over until Mr. Lewis can
attend.

Mr. CRAIG (who had gone into the other Court for a few
moments) said, on his return, that he had been requested by
his learned colleague to say, :that any understanding of his
having said that parties making claims, and those objected
to, should authorize parties to appear for them, was a total
misunderstanding of what he had said.
Mr. Roweroft said he supposed the misunderstanding was
on his part. _

A claim was nude by Messrs. Gooch and Lemaire, for
premises occupied by them in Little Love-lane. Mr.
Gooch stated, that he had occupied the premises one year
and a half, and claimed to be rated ; but the overseer put
down the name of the landlord, Mr. Lovin, a common case
with overseers, when they find the landlord a solvent man.
W hen he made his claim, he had not made it on any parti-
cular rate.
Mr. CRAIG said that, according to the provisions of the
Act, he ought to have made his claim on some parti-
cular rate.
The case was ordered to stand over till a quarter to four
o'clock.
Mr. Walley, holding premises in Bread-street, was ob-
jected to by Mr. Rowcroft on the ground of not being rated
to the relief of the poor.

The rate-book was produced, and Mr. \Valley's name not
being found therein, his claim to vote was disallowed.
Mr. John Telford, of Bread-street, was objected to by
Mr. Rowcroft, on the ground that, though rated to the
relief of the poor, it did not appear for what description of
property he was so rated, and Mr. Rowcroft contended that
legally this was no rating.

-Mt. Wood, the overseer of All-hallows, Bread-street,
proved that Mr. Telford had been rated in the books on a
rental of 701. to the poor-rate and church-rate, but the
book did not state on what description of property. It de-
scribed generally " property in the parish," but did not dis-
tinguish whether land, house, or warehouse. The rates
up to the 20th of July were paid.
A witness was called, who spoke to Mr. Telford having
a warehouse at No. 4, Star-court, but witness could not
say whether be was rated for that property.
Mr. Rowcroft contended, that to make out the right of
Mr. Telford to vote it should be proved that he was rated,
that be had paid the rates, that he had occupied premises
in the parish for one year, and that he resided for six calen-
dar months in the city, or within seven miles thereof. This
proof was required by the 27th section to establish his
Claim, and the onus probandi lay upon the claimant.
Mr. CRAIG said, that undoubtedly the 27th clause did
require those proofs ; but besides that, he thought that his
decision on the case must be against the claimant- on the
50th clause.

Mr. Rowcroft waved his right to insist on the decision of
the case now, and allowed it to stand over till to-morrow,
to have evidence given as to residence, but reserved to him-
self the right of objecting to the claim on other grounds.
The other cases were ordered also to stand over till to-
morrow.—Adjourned at half-past four o'clock.
