REGISTRATION OF VOTES.

TO THE EDITOR OF I HR LYTTELTON TOC! Sib,—l registered about five years ago, and have given my vote on several occasion! since that time ; I now find my name objected to by the Registration Officer, on the grounds that my property is “ insvjjipenti} described." If the officer is correct, his predecessors must have been wrong, and I pre* sume my vote and many others were illegal. If the description was sufficient, what reason , can there be in raising an objection at the present time ? A foot-note to the list state “ The above objections will be heard by ttie Revising Officer appointed for that purpose. Will you kindly inform me, and others in the same category, who is the Revising Officer, when and where does be sit, and whether, i further particulars are given, the names wi * still stand on the Electoral Roll ? Tour obedient servant, HEATHCOTE. Christchurch, May 11, 1869. [The Revising Officer’s name will no doubt appear in due course, when he gives notic the newspapers as to the place and n holding his Court of Revision. W® undertake to answer the latter part oi correspondent’s query.—E». £<• '•] .
