fined to Dutchßonds, which have rather given way,
theTwo-and-a-Half per Cents. being 521 524-; and
the Five per Cents. 1021.
The announcement of the payment of the dividend
upon Mexican Bonds has not caused any' improve-
ment'in the quotation, they are now marked 341 for
Money and for the Account.
Scarcely any thing has been done in Shares; the
market is, however, a shade better. London and Bir-
mingham, New Thirds, 304; South Western, 574

more animated than for some time past.

WESTMINSTER REGISTRATION.
(THIS DAY.)
Thomas James Arnold, Esq., the Barrister, ap-
pointed to revise the lists of voters for the City of
Westminster, held his Court at 10 o'clock this morn-
ing, pursuant to the provisions of the Reform Act,
and, by permission of Lord Langdale, at the Rolls'
Court, Westminster.
The total number of claims by the Liberals this
year is 100, and the total number of objections is
785,,being 569 on the House List, and 216 on the
Scot and Lot. The Tories make only 16 claims,
whilst the total number of their objections is 328,
being 307 on the House, and 21 on the Scot and Lot
Lists.
Mr. Trott and Mr. Huggett, the Reform Advocates,
attended for the Reformers, and the Messrs. Score,
sen., and jun., attended for the Tories.
The REVISING BARRISTER, having announced his
intention of proceeding with the parishes in alpha-
betical order,
Mr. Score begged to ask whether the Court con-
sidered it necessary to inquire that the overseers' lists
had been published on the church doors, conformably
to the Act of Parliament.
The REVISING BARRISTER, in a lengthened and
elaborate judgment, gave it as his opinion that such
an inquiry was not necessary ; at any rate in the pre-
sent stage of the inquiry he did not think that he
could enter into the investigation, nor indeed did he
think that this was the proper tribunal before which
such an investigation should take place. The 44th
and 47th sections of the Reform Act were binding
upon the overseer to make out lists of voters as well
as lists of persons claiming to vote, and persons to
whom objections had been made, and to fix such lists
upon the church doors; and they (the overseers) were
liable to a penalty of 500/. if they wilfully neglected
their duty. But there was no clause empowering the
Revising Barrister to inquire that the overseers had
performed their duty in this particular.
The lists of the various parishes were then re-
ceived, and the Court proceeded with the parish of
St. Anne, in which parish the Liberals make 35 ob-
jections, and the Tories none.

CRIMINAL COURT.— HIS DAY.)
The September sessions of the Court commenced
this day at the. Sessions-house, in the Old Bailey, before
the usual civic authorities. The Grand Jury having
boen sworn, were briefly addressed by the Recorder
on the nature of their duties. The calendar contains
the names of 169 prisoners for trial.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)
CORN EXCHANGE.
Last week's arrivals were inconsiderable of English
Grain, but good of Foreign Wheat. There was a
good fresh supply of, new English Wheat, but not
much other Corn. The millers being reluctant
buyers, Wheat has fallen since last Monday 2s. to 3s.
a quarter, for English, and 2s. for Foreign. Barley
found sale at former prices. Beans and Gray Peas
unvaried. Boiling Peas in demand, and 2s. per
quarter dearer. Oats met a fair sale at their former
value. The Flour trade was dull, but the millers have
not altered the prices.
