CHURCH TITHES.—A gentleman natiltd Gopdwin, on Tuesday at tended in pur,ua cc of a summons, issued au t;v i stance of the Tithe Cuiiector of the parish of —. The charge exhibited against him was, that he had refused to pay the tithes, which it had been customary to collect in that parish. Mr. Goodwin, in his defenualce, stated, that on removing into th e p arish of , he had as us, taken his family to hear eivine worship on Sunday. - f his surprise, however, on entering the parish church, he found only five persons assembled besides The Clergyman who officiated; and still more to his surprise, as well as disappointment, he found that not ome word which was uttered by the Clergyman could be heard pr understood. On six several occasions subsequently, he paid similar visits to the same church, and t he aggregate amount of persons assembled during the service,whichwas performed in the same unsatislactory manner already alluded to, did not amotr•t, besides children, to 25 pers'us. Not‘s ith standing these circumstan_es. he had paid the church-tithes several times, till at length influenced by the example of his neighbours, who all complained as loudly as he did of the incompetence of their pastor, he determined to bring the matter to issue, and had therefore attended before his Worship. Alderman SMITH said, it was not his business to inquire into the competence of the Pastor of the parish, more than he was tiltif,(l to enter into an investigation of the cause to which was to be attriuuled the absence of the parishioners from their proper place of divine worship. All he had to decide was the plain question, whether the parishioners were by law bound to pay the church tithe or not ; he apprehended they were bound to pay the tithe, and should decide accordingly.
