DONCASTER RACES.
DONCASTER, SUNDAY EVENING.
THE ST. LEGER.—Up to the present time the betting
has been flat in the extreme, but enough has been done
to warrant a quotation, and to show that Ithuriel's
chance is gone. Lord Stanley has declared that he is
amiss, but that he shall start him if possible. The
Cure arrived this morning, gallopped shortly after, and
went remarkably well ; he is ix immense favour ; next
to him Red Deer, the Princess, and Foig-a-ballagh are
most in request. The betting subjoined is made up to
post time:—

20 to 1 agst Ithuriel—taken
20 to 1 agst Lightning.

about Rein Deer in one bet.

CITY OF LONDON REGISTRY.
(THIS DAY.)
The revision of the list of voters for the City of Lon-
don commenced this day before James Thomas Arnold,
Esq., barrister-at-law.
Mr. Wansey appeared on behalf of the Liberal party,
and Mr. Quin for the Conservatives.
The following is a summary of the claims and objec-
tions made by the Liberals, on account of the livery :
gross claims 15, gross objections 450, in the household
list. New bona fide claims 351, claims to amend 117—
gross claims 468, gross objections 676.
The claims and objections made by the Liberal party
in the parish of St. Stephen, Walbrook, owing to the
recent circumstances connected ss ith the collector's ac-
counts in that parish must for perspicuity be divided
into two lists, namely, the list of Mr. Alderman Gibbs,
to which the Liberal claims and objections arc as
follows :—New bona fide claims, 15 ; claims to amend,
4 • gross claims, 19 ; gross objections, 5 ; and the list of
Mr.i Rock, the objections and claims to which are under
the head of new bona fide claims, 14 : claims to amend,
3 ; gross claims, 7 ; gross objections, 5.
The following is a summary of the list of claims and
objections served by the Conservative party :—Livery
objections, 219, of which 73 were what is termed
" doubles," or objections by both parties ; thus leaving
only 146 available Conservative objections in the Livery.
The claims were only 5. In the household list the ob-
jections were 831, from which were to be taken 76
" doubles," reducing the objections to 755. In this
species of franchise the Conservatives only put in 10 claims.
Acc( rding to the usual custom, this being the first day,
it was determined to enter upon no further business than
merely to receive the different lists of claims and ob-
jections from the several vestry-clerks and overseers,
and also the parochial lists from Mr. Secondary Potter.
Upon the Revising Barrister taking his seat upon the
bench he said, before entering upon the business of the
day it might be convenient to the gentlemen in attend-
ance if they were to come to some arrangement with
respect to the order in which the several parish lists
should be taken. Last year the arrangement was to
take them in alphabetical order, but perhaps a coarse
more in accordance with the wishes of the majority of
those in attendance might be devised.
Mr. QUIN thought it would be much better if, instead
of taking the parishes alphabetically, they were to be
taken according to the different polling lists. Such a
course would enable them to have the registry placed
in the hands of the printer much earlier than could be
done otherwise.

Mr. IV A N.. SE Y also concurred in the views of Mr. Quin
upon the subject. It would be much better if they fol-
lowed the same course which was pursued in Middlesex
and other places, and take the several parish lists accord.
ing to the order in which they stood as polling districts
in the Parliamentary lists. He also trusted that some
means would be adopted whereby publicity would be
given to the daily order in which these lists would
be taken.

After some objections against this course being urg( d
by one or two of the collectors and overseers,
The REVISING BARIIISTEII. said, as it seemed to be
almost the unanimous opinion of the gentlemen engaged
