years. Dr. Phillips makes no secret of difficulties' but
he fumes them bravely; and though there have been
inaugural addresses which have commented upon new
or st.rtling facts, there havo been few breathings more

in the town wherein Watt perfected the steam-engine.

Well, to return to our sheep and pen ; it had
rained during the aforesaid night, and the piti-
less water was more than oozing over our heads.
So I said to Brown, "Did you not tell our land-
lord, Mr. Skinflint, to send tho mason to see to
our roof r "Oh Mary !" he replied, "of course
I did, but it is no use, as I did not vote for his
friend 7" So I see, a conscientious voter must
be like Macintosh—waterproof.
Then Mrs. Jones dropped in, rain-like, and
frigLtened us about the cholera, exclaiming:
" These gullies and pools smell awful bad ; we
shall soon all be perished if we don't petition!
and if our Corporation won% keep our town clean
let us sweep them away." Brown thereupon left,
saying, pshaw ! pish ! bosh !" and other short
words. But 1, willing to give good Mrs. Jones
1501110 reason, answered, Without the ballot
electors have no broom to sweep with, while
they can easily be swept themselves by landlords,
employers, or customers."
After Mrs- Jones came Mrs. Robinson, who
repeated her old plaint: "Some years ago we
had a nice water company—that is, one who
supplied us with nice and cheap water. But the
Mayor then judged it proper to patronise a new
company, who, ever since, have made us pay
double for chalky water, which may increase our
milk but diminishes our means. Can't Mr.
Brown sign our petition?" I replied, "Good Mrs.
11, if Brown were to join you, the only result
would be our receiving notice to quit, or having
our rent raised, before we could say Jack
Robinson !" Sorry I could not stop the last
word.
Afterwards eame Mrs. Smith, who complained
that she could not get a stall in the market-
house—so very narrow at bottom and so lofty at
the top, very unlike crinoline, still both expan-
sive and expensive, having a ponderous cornice,
weighing many hundred lbe., and coating
several hundred Thank goodness, the lbs.
have not crushed anybody, but the L's of the job
have already been felt by the ratepayers. "May
the Mayor and his protege, the architect, never
feel the weight of the cornice !" was my answer.
I could not help thinking that there are too many
jobs amongst us. But the bitterest complaint was
that of Mrs. Thompson, who cursed the income-
tax, schedule D—old nick's initial—that squatter
a few pounds out of her husband's livelihood (mil
precarious as his health, and coming HOW under
£100) as the case was hopeless. I was sorry to
hear the good soul claiming also the right of
petition, and writing to the Press and the like.
Poor things! all of them talk of our free in-
stitutions! éc., the. They don't know that the

me that one day, when the hustings were
erected, a foreigner asked ine if they were
to hang some one. I answered, "This is
for the hangers on the public purse." "Oh I
see, said he, it is a farce they are going to per-

I would only observe, with reference to the immediate
occasion of this dispute, that Mr. Swatridge has had the
good sense to give me some guarantee against a re-
currence of what has taken place, in his own written
aesuranoe, that "on no future occasion should I find
him sating, with regard to the bells, in opposition to
the Minister and his brother Churchwarden."
1. First, the "rights, freedom or privileges" of the
Dissenters of Beaminster have, in no way, that I am
aware of, been attacked- -neither by myself nor by
any one else. On the contrary, they have the fulled
liberty, here, u elsewhere, "to worship God in that
way which they believe to be most acceptable to Rim." I
should be grieved to hear that anyone wished to molest
-them herein. If I thought there was any real restraint
ain their religious liberty I should be the first to move
for its removal. But they should recollect, others
have consciences as well as they, and they are directly
Invading my religious liberty, when they would force
me, as the minister of this parish, (upon whom con-
jointly with the churchwardens, the law has laid the
duty of deciding when the church bells may or may not
properly be rung,) to allow the bells to be rung on an
occasion which I cannot conscientiously approve of. I
confidently appeal to any honest Dissenter, whether be
would not, from the very bottom of him heart, despise
me, did I allow myself to be thus overridden by the
wishes of one or more parishioners, in the conscientious
cilseltarge of • duty, which I do not assume, but
which the Law has distinctly laid upon me.
2. But some may doubt whether the Law ham really
hdd this duty upon the Minister of the Parish. The
Canons of 1603 are binding upon the Clergy and Church-
wardens, in accordance with their express declarations
and subscriptions. They are also binding on the Laity
In so far as they are "declaratory of the ancient usage
and Law of the Church of England" and have not been
expressly superseded by any Statute Law. Thus it has
been more than once decided with reaped to the 88th
Canon, which says that the bells are not to be rang "at
"any time, without good cause, to be allowed by the
"Minister of the Parish, and by the Churchwardens,"
that this °anon is binding in law on all. The church
bells therefore may not lawfully be rung on any
occasion, without the express consent of the
Minister of the Parish; and legal proceedings
may be promoted in the Ecclesiastical Court against any
Churchwarden or other person, who should procure
them to be rung without snob consent, or who should
persist in so doing against the remonstrances of the
minister (See Redhead,. Wait and other.; see also
Phillimore's Barns, Prideanx, Crippe, ko.) If in
the opinion of any parishioner the minister refuses to
allow the bells to be rang on any proper occasion,
their remedy is to lay a complaint before the Ordinary,
not to obtain 1100011101t0 the Belfry by unfair means.
3. The same may be said of the question as to the
custody of the keys. It has been clearly laid down by
ISir Nicholl ( Lee r. Matthews,) that "the ex-
clusive right to the custody of the keys" is in the
Minister, 'subject to the granting admission to the
Churchwardens for purposes connected with the due
execution of their offices." This view of the matter is
expressly confirmed by our uninentEcciesiastiesil Lawyer
(Sir R. Phillimore, Queen'a Advocate and Chancellor of
vim) in the "Instructions" addressed by him to the
...embenta and Churchwardens of the Diocese in 1868.
It is a mere vulgar assertion, contrary both to law and
fact, to speak of tbe bells, keys, or anything else
belonging to the Church a. "the property of the
pariabieners." By the common law of Ragland, the
freehold of the Chureb - hyard, when once
