ELECTIVE FII'iNCHISE lIIELANIL —A most itripoitant deci-
sion upon the construction of a clause in the registry act has
been made by the twelve judges; and it is of eonseqw,nee that,
previous to the time of serving notices for application at the
next quarter sessions, the public should be in possession of the
acts. B y the decision it is ruled—"that free baryese, of corpora-
tions are entitled to be registered." That class of electors as such,
not being named in the reform act, It became a question with
the assistant barristers whether they could be registered, or, in
Other word, whether their right to the elective franchise was
saved by the act. The barristers, entertaining• a doubt as to the
measuring of the art, declined to reLtister upon the notices of
such applicants until the point had been .settled upon appeal.
The question came in that forum from Mr. TiCKEr. 1. (one of the
barristers,) before the going judge of assize; awl was by his lord-.
ship reserved for the consideration of the whole bench. '1
have decided as stated; and henceforth the" YUEN. BURGESSES"
of all corporations will have a right to exercise the privilege of
the elective franchise, having complied with the forms and pros
visions required by the act.—PuVin It'rela;ng Mai
