MARYLEBONE VESTRY.
THE SMALL DEBTS BlLL.—Yesterday a very
merously attended special meeting of the vestry of St. Ms
lebone took place at the Courthouse, Marylebonedans,
the purpose of considering the report of a committee on •
subject of the Small Debts Bill, and the propriety of wait
on the Lord Chancellor on the subject of granting te
Marylebone district a court of its own.
Mr. J. WILLIAMS having been called to the chair,
Mr. FLOOD, the vestry ark, read the report, which
commended that steps snould be taken, by a deputation
the Lord Chancellor or otherwise, in order that this pare
in the contemplated division of the country into thatri
ma
_y form one of such districts.
Mr. LOVERIDGE, in moving the adoption of the rep
called the attention of the vestry to the struggles which I
been made from time to time by the people of Maryleb
to obtain a Local Courts Bill for the recovery of small dsl
but which they had not proceeded with, on account of
promises made from time to time by various government
introduce a general measure on the subject. (Hear, het
That general measure bad now passed the legislature,'
as it wu intended to divide the country into districts,
considered it was not too much for the vestry to ask, as
representatives of 150,000 persons, that Marylebone alto
have a court of its own. lie considered that the mum a
gested by the report to send a deputation to the Lord Ch
cellor, in whom the power of parcelling out the districts •
vested, was a moot proper one, and he had no doubt the
would meet with the sanction of the vestry.
Mr. SODIN seconded the motion.

Mr. Gomm, in supporting the adoption of the report
some length went into an explanation of the advantage
be derived by the bill. Amongst the most important
the facilities it afforded for the speedy and cheap recover
all debts under 201., and in enabling landlords of small to
ments, in cases of unprincipled occupants, to carry ou
more summary method of ejectment. Ile most cordially
proved of all the principles of the bill.
The report having been unanimously adopted,
Mr. Ponta moved the appointment of a deputatioi
the Lord Chancellor.

Mr. Wilma seconded the resolution, and observed
the tradesmen of Marylebune would be much indebts
the government for having passed this bill, as the proce
rectiveriog small debts, under the old law, was of so
raising and expensive a description as to render it ah
better to forego the debt altogether than proceed for it.
The CHAIRMAN could hear testimony to the latter to

amounted to nearly 3001. per annum, in debts of 41.

home, and who frequently, in a few days after, either
their residences and went abroad or in the country, be
process could be issued, and thus the tradesmen mitt
Under the new bill, process would be so speedy, that
results would be greatly diminished.
The resolution was then carried unanimously.
Mr. H. C. WILSON moved:

Idr. G. DANIELL condemned the application to the C

A. long discussion on this point ensued ; on the one
being contended that the vestry in sending the resointio
the Lord Chancellor was usurping functions which did
belong to it, and on the other, that they had a perfect r
to interfere in the election of an officer they would I
