METROPOLITAN INTERMENTS ACT.

VESTRY MEEIING IN BT. JAMES'B.-SEWERS

A vestry meeting of Sr. James's, Piccadilly, was
held yesterday in the parish veotry.room, the Rev. Mr.
JACK,UN, M.A., in the chair.
The report of the committee appointed to inquire respect-
ina the rem,val of the burial gioun:s in the parish, and the
compensation to b 3 having been read,
Mr. LEWIN moved thee, adoption of the report.
Mr. NELSON, in seconding the motion, said that he
hoped when the oominiseionars receivcd tapir report they
would order the grave.yords to tc closed at once, and the
vaults beneath the church to be hermalicilly sealed for
ever. In Oe:obcr, 1849, the General Board of Health or-
dered those grave-yards in the metropolis, which 'ere
known for years to be nuisance, to be clop d. But in conse-
quence of some opposition to the closing of the Tottenham-
court-road graveyard, they did Lot insist on the
order being carried into effect. The consequence
was that, while some of these grave yards ware closed, others
were kept open; but immediately on the loterments Bill
passing shay said that people might go co to bury in the
cturehyards u last as possible ; and, as might be antici-
pated. the graveyards wnich had been cloaca were again
opened, and all the horrors of the deep grave ustem were
revived, and were gains on at the present moment. (Hear.)
Mr. G. A. WALKER said he wished it might be dia-
. . . .

tinctly understood that be had nothing whets verrio do with
the interments Bill. Hie province was to cillect Lots ether
than to find remedies. The magnitude ut the isil of ixtra-
mural interments hart so impressed him, that, so fat back u
1E139, he stated in a book published by him on the stoject

" chit eovernment would lie driven to adopt some means-for
preventing burials in towns." Toat prophesy was fulli'oed
en 1840. As to the way in which ft was fulfilled be would
say nothing on that occasion more than that some of the
dames of the bill were very objectienable. lio had already
pointed out in a little work the means of abolishing the
nuisance. The question lay fn a nutshell. AU that wee
reqaisite was to get land and a cheap mode of transit.

Sir R. Broome had now made arrarucmciam ter the
purchase of that place. The South Western Company
would have conveyed the dud bodies for lid. a piece. Turn
could be no sea °cable objection to this mode of disposing of
