METROPOLITAN REGISTRATION.

MIDDLESEX.—Mr. William Farren, the celebrated comedian,
was objected to, because he was one of his Majesty's servant).
It is impossible to believe that such an objection could come
from any other person living than Mr. Joseph Hume, who is
now commonly designated the Middlesex goose. It is worthy
of remark also; as showing how the destructives detect anything
like respectability in theatricals, that both Mr. Duruset and Mr.
Charles Taylor, whose qualications ought to he considered as
wholly unexceptionable, are, in common with Mr. Farren, ob-
jected to. Mr. Farren brought the deeds of a large leasehold
property. and his claim was necessarily admitted; cf course the
same will be the result with respect to the other parties vexa-
tiously assailed. The reformers are in high dudgeon at the suc-
cess or the opposition to the registration for the county by the
conservatives. The reception of the impudent claims of Mr.
Bulwer, M.P. for Lincoln, to vote for the county, will, it is an.
ticipated, be successfully imitated in several instances where
the parties should have' known better. The claims of Sir John
H obbouse and several other electors, for property in the parish
of St. Luke, Old-street, are in a similar manner objected to.
The success of a conservative candidate at the next election is
considered by all as certain. Whoever may be the successful
candidate for Westminster at the next opportunity, it is morally
certain that Colonel Evans will not be the man. His leaving
his seat unoccupied, and the disgraceful character of the expe-
dition in which he is qinceraed, are considered sufficient by the
majority of the electors to release them from their allegiance.
MARYLESONE LOYAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL ASSOCIATION.
—This society, feeling it was an imperative duty in them to no-
tice the late act of the vestry, in putting the names of forty-two
vestrymen upon the registration list, after the due period for
such purpose had elapsed, laid a case before Sir William Follett,
who gives an opinion that " Mr. J. Garnett has subjected him-
self to the penalty of £5OO, and the rest of the party to an in-
dictment fur a conspiracy." We hear Sir William Follett's
opinion will be acted upon ; we therefore wish the radical party
well out of the scrape.
BOROUGH oe MARYLEBOSIE.—It was stated by one of the
radical members of the St. Marylebone vestry, on Tuesday
evening last, that in the event of another election it is the in-
tention of the ultras to put forward Mr. Feargus O'Connor as
the worthy coadjutor of Sir Samuel Whalley, in the room of H.
Lytton Bulwer, Esq. It is with these ulterior views that the
present meetings are got up at Savage's public-house, in Circus-
street. The whole of the interest of Mr. Thomas Murphy (I !)
is calculated upon.
The conservative cause has gained immense strength in East
Surrey, upwards of eighty names have been added to it in the
parish of Clapham alone. The objections raised by the ultra
and whin-radical party to names appearing iu the registration
list are o'f the most trifling description. At Reigate and Croy-
don the case is very nearly similar. In the borough of South-
wark, and particularly in the parish of St. Saviour, a vast ac-
cession of strength has accrued from the judicious efforts of the
acting members dr the conservative association.
