RINOCIAR CHURCE RATE DISPETP- A hatch of summonses was brought before Mr Ingham, the sitting magistrate, to make order s u p on several rate payers in the ecclesiastical district of St. Mary's, Bantam, ler the payment of • church-rate. Some Minted was attached to the proceedings on account of the legality of the case being disputed. Several pre ceding cases have been objected to, and the churchwardens have had to make their attendance at the court annually for the purpose of enforcing mutest upon those who cos laded their power. The point io question was whether the vestry of St. Mary's ' which was only an ecclesiastical distract, had the power to make • church rate. It was attended that the vestry hail not the power on the ground that the ratepayers of St. Mary's, Hallam, were liable to ;ay a rate for the mother church. Mr. Fleming, one of the churchwardens, produced the rate-hook. showing it bad been legally made in June laat. It also appeared that at the time the cies was prepared a poll took place resulting in the con& t uition of the rats hy 81 to 49. Three gentlemen attended, acd objected on the ground that the question was now in the Ecclesiastical Court on Preceding case, as to whether a district had the power to make a church rate. Mr. Ingham held that the objections were bona fide, and avordiogly dismissed the entrunowase. One gentleman objected further that the vestry bad no sower to make • new rate until the old one had been col lected. Mr. Ingham thought it would be unfair to delay making 'Sew rate while the arrears could not be collected on lEcOant of the proceedings in the ecclesiastical cond. Orders were made in those cases in which the defen dants did not appear. One or two belonged to the order of Quakers and when the collector called for payment he was told that he knew the Way to recover. That was meant to apply to recovering hl distress on their goods, which was the usual wane adopted iu these cams. THE DENMAN TESTIMONIAL. —The dinner and presentation to the lion. G. Denman is to take place at Tiverton on the 28th Jost., and several leading gentlemen connected with the liberal interests have already promised to attend and take port in the proceedings.

A MURDERED CHILD.—An inquiry into a case of supposed child murder was held hut evening at St. Bartholomew's Hospital by Mr. Payne, coroner. It sp. Peered from the evidence that on the 21st of No a young woman , well dressed, brought a small deal November box into the shop of Mr. Hsadmeads, baker and carrier's agent, in LtiIOOOIITOVIL and left it to be forwarded to " Mr. Dubin, Priorproad, Penzeoce. CorowalL With care." Messy. Sutton, carriers, of 35, Aldersgate-street, forwarded ot in the usual manner, by the woma n o Railway, to its deetieation. The young had not paid the carriage, acid the box was sent heck marked " Refused by the consignee, 2s. 6d. to pay." On Wednesday last the box was opened at Aldengate.street, and it wee found to contain the body of • female child wrapped up in calico. Mr. F. A. Simpson, surgeon. said that the child was a fully developed female infant. It bad been born abou t a month ago, but advanced decomposition prevented him from ascertaining the cause of death, or even whether it hod been bon alive. The po lies, it a pp eared , were unable te trace soy person concerned in the transaction. The jury returned an open verdict, "That owing to the demmposed state of the body of the child, they were unable to say the muse of death ;" and they recommend that the p should take me asures to try and discover the persons olice who were guilty.

The guard-ship Fisgard sent leveret boats, as did many of the government steamers lying in the river off the dockyard, and the crews vied with each a other to render all the assistance they could. Owing to the great height of the burnin g building, ri" there wee some difficulty experienced is throwing the 100 streams of water oa to the summit of the property. By 12 o'clock the fire had attained a fearful height, and the se. flames were coming from the roof and innumerable windows i t , with a noise like Wunder.
