MIDDLESEX.

Mr. Shadwell, the barrister appointed to revise the list of
voters for the county of Middlesex, held his first court
on Monday, at Uxbridge, for the purpose of revising
the list of voters for the parishes of Uxbridge, Hillingdon,
Ruislip, Ickenham, West Drayton, Harefleld, Cowley, Hayes,
and Norwood.

Mr. Payne appeared for the:Conservatives, and Mr. James
for the Radicals.

A gentleman of the name of Meek was 9bjected to by the
Radicals.

The claimant appeared in person, and stated that this was
the fourth time he had been brought down from town to
substantiate his vote.
Mr. James—Will you tell me, Sir, where your property is
situated? Mr. Meek—lt is next to the field where the poor-
house was.

mr. James—Where it was 2 that is our objection. The
poor-house has been pulled down, and, therefore, there is no
such place ; if you will give a proper statement of the situa •
tion of your property, you will not be troubled again.
Mr. Meek then gave a particular statement of the place
where his houses were, and the name was retained.

REGISTRATION COURTS.
CITY OF LONDON.
'1 he Court resumed its inquiry yesterday morning at ten
when the list of Liverymen was entered upon.
The first case on which any discussion arose was that of
Mr. Marriott, described in the overseers' list as residing on
Ludgate-hill. It was objected to him that this was not his
proper residence, as he bad removed to Upper Albany-street,
Regent's Park. It was maintained on the other side that
this did not affect his right to vote as a Liveryman.
The REVISEIG BARRISTER said, as it was a point of im-
portance, he would take time to consider his decision.
The next point of importance raised was in the case of
Edward Brown, a member of the Bakers' Company: was
objected to him that his freedom had been taken "up since
1831, and therefore, according to the intention of the Reform
Act, his name was not entitled to be on the register.
After considerable argument, as the decision would affect
several hundred votes, it was agreed that a case should be
selected, to be fully argued on Friday next.

ELLIS LEE SANDERS, ESQ. ;

" That, in the opinion of this meeting, the construction of a railway
from Ross to Worcester, via Ledbury and Malvern, as set forth in
the prospectus of the Worcester and South Wales tinction Railway
Company, is calculated essentially to promote the prosperity of this
town and neighbourhood, inasmuch as it will perfect a direct main
trunk line of railway from South Wales, embracing the ports of
Swansea, Cardiff, and Newport, to Ledbury, Malvern, Worcester,
South Staffordshire, Birmingham, and the North, and afford an ad-
vantageous outlet for the agricultural produce of this district; there-
fore this meeting will give such undertaking its strenuous support."—
(Resolution put and carried unanimously.)
It was moved by PHILIP MATTHEWS, ESCI., and seconded by JOHN
PURCHES, Esq. ;

_ .
" That the thanks of this meeting be given to William Chadwick,
Esq., and the gentlemen ei the deputation from the London Com-
mittee, for their att,nden,e at this meeting, and for the satisfactory
information they have afforded to the meeting respecting the pro-
posed Worcester and South Wales Junction Railway."—(Carried
unanimously.)

THE NORWICH FESTIVAL.

Nozovicn, SIFT. 15.—The rehearsal commenced this morning at
ten o'clock, with Spohr's oratorio of Calvary, and Haydn's Seasons.
The orche-tral and choral forces are magnificent; the former
amounting to a hundred and fourteen, amongst which are
Lindley, T. Cooke (who leads), Howell, Grattan Cooke,
Williams, Lazarus, Puzzl, Baumann, Harper, Prospere, and
others well known for their instrumental excellence; the
latter consists of eighty-four trebles, fifty altos, sixty-eight tenors,
and seventy basses. Benedict is tke conductor of this mighty musical
army. The principal singers are Madame Grisi, Miss Dolby, Signor
Mario, Mr. Hobbs, Mr. Machin, Madame Caradori Allan, Miss Poole,
Signor F. Lablache, Mr. Hawkins, Mr. Bradbury, and Herr Staudigl.
The Bishop's palace is already crowded with guests, among whom
are Lord Lansdowne, Sir Charles Lemon, Sir John Boileau,
Lady Ward, and other noble families. Lord Suffield and
the Dowager Lady Lichfield are staying at the splendid
residence of Mr. Kitson; indeed, every nobleman's and
gentleman's house in the neighbourhood is crammed from parlour to
attic; the genial hospitality for which England in the olden time was
so gloriously distinguished would appear to be again restored. The
festival commences to-morrow evening with llandel's Alexander's
Feast, Mozart's sinfonia in G minor, and a " miscellaneous mixture,"
in which the Italians will exercise their most sweet voices.

REGISTRATION COURTS.
(THIS DAY.)
CITY OF LONDON.
The Revising Barrister resumed his sitting to-day at the COM
of Common Pleas, Guildhall, at the usual hour, when the further
consideration of the Livery list was gone into.
The only case of importance brought up was in reference to
Mr. Pegg, of Old Barnet-road, Finchley. In support of the ob-
jection taken to his being on the register, it was proved that his re-
sidence was opposite to the six mile-stone on the road to Barnet,
and therefore three-fourths of a mile beyond the boundary laid
down by the Act of Parliament.
The REVISING BARRISTER decided that the objection which was
urged by the Liberals was good, and therefore Mr. Pegg's name was
struck off the list.
The Court then adjourned till to-morrow, when the Fishmongers'
list will be gone into.

DISPATCHES AA D LETTERS OF VICE-
ADMIRAL LORD VISCOUNT NELSON;
with Nacs by Sir NidwLts Harris G.G.M.G.

The present volume contains the Nelson dispatches
and letters from the beginning of 1795 to the end of
1797, and include an account of Admiral Hotham's
actions with the French fleet; of Nelson's proceed-
ings in the Mediterranean in 1796 ; of the battle of
St. Vincent, and or the attack on Teneriffe, in which
he lost his arm. These documents are many of them
of a most interesting character, and as materials for
the future historian they are invaluable. It is im-
possible to read this volume without admiring the de-
lightful style of Nelson's writings. Clear, distinct,
and terse, his letters and dispatches are models of
correspondence; and whether he be making a report
to his superior officer, or issuing his directions to
those under his own command, his meaning cannot
fur one instant be misunderstood.

THE HAMPSTEAD MURDER.

HOCFtER'S DEFENCE.—The line of defence that will pro-
bably be adopted by Hocker on his trial, for the murder of
Delarue, seems pointed out by his conduct, and by his
anxiety to correct the evidence of the policeman who was
left in charge of the body in the field whilst the stretcher
was brought. He will, most probably, assert that whilst
waiting by the body, he and the policeman agreed to plun-
der it, and that that was the whole extent of his criminality.
Many of the circumstances would bear out such a defence.
First, the great improbability that a murderer would revisit
the spot so soon afterwards for no apparent object; secondly,
the withholding by the policeman of the fact that any one
had been with him in the field ; and, thirdly, the buttoned-up
pockets of Delarue ; as it would not be likely for the mur-
derer to stop and button the pockets of the man he had
killed, whose cries, continuing nearly two minutes, would
most probably have been beard. Such a line of defence
would also account for the blood on Rocker's clothes, and
for the silence he observed on the subject. The presence of
the three ill-looking men in different parts of Hampstead,
on the day of the murder, who were last seen going towards
the place, and have not since been lWard :of, would also
afford some countenance to the statement that Delarue had
been murdered by them, as originally supposed, and that
becoming alarmed they had run away before plundering the
body. The fact of the supposed murderous weapon having
been discovered before the murder was committed, and the
absence of proof that the prisoner had possessed any other
weapon calculated to inflict the wounds on the head of De-
lame, are also in his favour, so far as negative evidence goes.
He would, indeed, have some difficulty in explaining other,
though minuter, parts of the evidence against him ; but the
line of defence we have mentioned would be supported by
several of the circumstances that have been adduced against
him.

THE GLOOMY PATIL—We understand that in consequence
of the attention that has been drawn by the recent murder at
Hampstead to the gloomy path by the side of Bellsize-park,
leading to the Haverstock field, it is intended to adopt mea-
sures for the removal of the high close wooden fence, which
was erected within the last six years by Mr. Wright, the
late banker. The path is inclosed between the black wooden
fence, seven feet high, on one side, and an old brick wall still
higher on the other; it is overhung by trees which obstruct
the light, and make the pathway disagreeable as well as
gloomy. Since the erection of this unnecessarily high and
close fence the path has been less frequented, and the enclo-
sure is the more objectionable from the circumstance that it
was formerly one of the pleasantest parts of/the field walks
to Hampstead.
London, England, 1845-03-21

INSOLVENT ACT.

Mr. H. BERKELEY gave notice that, on the 11th
of April, he should mere for leave to bring in a Bill to
repeal the Insolvent Act of last session, and to pro-
mote the recovery of small debts.
Sir R. INGLIS gave notice that he should, imme-
diately after the recess, move for returns of the pur-
chases of land in New Zealand other than those con-
tained in the papers moved for by the Hon. Member
for Cockermouth (Mr. Aglionby), and extending over
the same period of time.
RIVER SUIR NAVIGATION.

Mr. WYSE begged to move for a return of the
number of ships that have come up to Carrick-on-
Suir since the passing of the Suir Navigation Act,
names of ships, and captains, and where from; also
tonnage and how laden, coming and going.
WEIGEITS AND MEASURES.

Captain ROUS begged to give notice that he
would, on an early day after Easter, move for returns
of all persons who had been fined for using deficient
weights and measures in England during the last
three years.
MAYNOOTH COLLEGE.

Mr. WARD said he held in his hand a motion of
which he intended to give notice, but before he did
so he would wish to ask the Right Hon. Baronet at
the head of her Majesty's Government a question,
namely, whether it was not customary, in moving for
a money grant, such as that of the proposed grant to
Maynooth, to first bring it before a Committee of the
whole House?

Sir R. PEEL said that the Hon. Member opposite
was correct ; such was the course pursued by the
House in all cases of motions for money grants, and
such certainly was the course he intended to adopt
in reference to his motion for the increased grant to
Maynooth.
Mr. WARD then begged to give notice that he
would, at tl'e time it was most fitting to do so, mov
that all further money grants for the purposes of re-
ligion be made out of the funds at present appro-
priated for the maintenance of the Protestant Epis-
copal Church.—(Hear, hear.)

ADVENTURES OF PHILIP CLINTON.

A striking and original work of fiction is now in the
course of publication in a London weekly newspaper
called the Sentinel. It is entitled " Philip Clinton; or,
a Tale of Modern Times," and is written with the in-
tention of embodying certain political occurrences
connected with the movement which took place a few
years ago among the working-classes for obtaining
the " Charter." It is well-known that these attempts
failed as much through the folly and treachery of
some of the leaders, as from a want of proper organiza-
tion among the people themselves. A fine scope is
thus opened for the skill of the writer, who, in de-
scribing these events and unmasking the villany of
baser agents, may preach a useful lesson, and unfold a
moral of the greatest importance to all classes, namely,
the necessity of education, political and otherwise, to
fit the people truly to comprehend their duties as well
as their rights, and to enable them to distinguish their
true friends from their false misleaders. The work
opens with great spirit, and immediately interests the
reader. There is a domestic story of singular beauty
interwoven with the detail of political matter, which
affords relief and contrast to the work, and carries the
reader fon% and with an intense relish of the characters
and the subject. In tracing the political occurrences
of which we have spoken, the author treads on ticklish
ground, for he must necessarily sketch the characters
and doings of certain well-known popular leaders ;
nevertheless, he walks over the " glowing embers"
fearlessly. The work must excite great notice, and
its progress will no doubt be watched with consider-
able anxiety.

ATTORNEYS' BILLS.— After Lady-day parish-
officers can, whenever they see necessary, have solicitor's bills,

SPANISH PASSIVE BONDHOLDERS!!
CAUTION.
Do not be tempted by the trifling rise in this Stock to sell. Your
Stock is now scarce, and remember M. Mon, the Spanish Minister
of Finance, has pledged himself to propose to the Cortes a settlement
of the whole Foreign Debt of Spain. Is the Active Stock, than, only
to be converted, and our interests be neglected ? Believe it not.

general measure, he said " a solemn and official de-
claration of the Holy See has been communicated to
France and Austria ; the Father of the Church pro-
claims that the hour has come for entering again into
negotiations ;with Spain. The Government having
faith in this declaration, hopes that these negotiations
will soon end in a desirable concordat. The Holy
See approves of the conduct hitherto pursued by the
Spanish Government ; nothing can, therefore, pre-
vent a most satisfactory arrangement." The Bill,
of course, will be carried by a large majority. The
following account of a burglary and capture of the
thieves appears in the Castellano :---
" A band of thieves who had expected to find millions
at the dwelling of M. Carriguiri, the capitalist, have cap-
tured but 18,000 reals (1801.) They had been admitted
by one of the banker's servants, to whom the most
splendid offers had been made. As the miscreants in-
tended to return and murder M. Carriguiri, if need were,
in order to find the treasure, the repentant servant se-
cretly warned his master of their design. Eleven persons
have in consequence been apprehended."
The Three per Cents. closed at 34 9-16 for cash,
and 35 at 60 days ; the Four per Cents. at 24 at 60
days ; the Five per Cents. at 26 at 60 days ; the Vales
at 10/ ; and the Debt without Interests at 8 at 60 days.
