PARISH OF CAJILERWI.LL.

A very numerous deputation of the inhabitant+ of Cam.
berweLl attended the board, iutruluced by Mr. Pew, to pre--
seut a memorial against the enforcement of the precept of
the board against the parish.
The memorial referred to the bill which had been intro
duced into parliament for the purpose of obtaining an °qui.
table readjustment of the Rock ham, inasmuch as there
were valid grounds of complaint on the part of par-tithes,
which, owing to the course the law had taken, had been
burdened with debts of several thousands of pounds, whilst
the actual benefit derived might be measured by as many
hundreds. The memorial went on to say that, as the bill
had been withdrawn in consequence of the late period of
the session, they trusted that the board would introduce
another bill in the miming ae.ssion of parliament, having for
its object a fair and equitable re-apportionment of the loan,
and until the question was finally settled by parliament that
the payment of the precepta may be suspended.
Rueurtin addressed the board at considerable length
in support of the memorial.
' Mr. Yew moved that the memorial Le referred for cond•
derstion and report to the finance immuuttee.
Mr. Mantua seconded the motion.
Mr. Deputy Magnums said the question had already
been considered, slid he saw no reason for again sending the
subject to the finance committee.
Mr. DOOLTON strongly urged the reference of this me-
morial to the committee, and he regretted to find there
was a growing desire ou the putt of the incubi:is of the
board to set themselves in antagonism to the ratepayers
wlm sent them there, and he thought that 'rotteng could be
more reasonable than what was asked for by the inhabitants,
of Qunberwell in this memoriaL
Air. PACKET! said that parliament bad east upon them
duty, and they were bound to collect the money ; and, be-
, sides, so reasons had been shown for further daisy.
Mr. Dirrvicrit said that it was but fair that this subject
should be referred to the committee, for if this dtmand
persiated in, it would make the leaud more uupopular than
it was at present. He hoped the p.rish of Camberwell
would not pay this precept, so that, with the agitation
which had been got up in hensingtou, Mt. Maryleboue, and
other parishes, it might be successfully resisted.
After some further Ohm/salon the nioCou was put, when
there appeared : for the reference to the ocetauttee, 13

wad by lied Lion-street, Whitechapel, at the estimated cost
of 126,972/., he approved. I u soppoit of this motion he
urged that the property in the line of the intended read was
in a very dilapidated state, and that the traffic was daily in-
creasing, and that there was a large number of vehicles con-
'Mut ly passing idong from eight iu the morning until twelve
o'clock at night. 6.• great was the truffle that the tolls in

600/. U a stoppage took place even for a few minutes the
collection of carriages was so great that when again in

Leadeuhall, Fenchurch, and Gracechurcla streets, occa-
sioning loss of time and danger to human life. This
street hod been strongly reannmeotled by a committee of
the House of Commons which sat in 1145, and althuugh
some member' of the boanl were of opinion that all
improvements should be'etayed until toe embankment of
the Themes was made, that could out be done without
legislative enactment, and if they wished to ohtain the
assistance of the House of Commons, the bread ought to
lose no time in obtaining this hill, and thus prove that they
were anxious to carry out thoee works for which they were
called into vaisteuts. The expense to thee' tepayers
would only be the 19th fractiored part of a py in the
pound, which would be practically reduced by the additional
rating value. Ho °Distended that the people in the ceders
part of the metropolis had a right to denoted that this plan
should be carried out, as the millions mused be the eight-
penny coal-tax had all been expended in the City and wed•
ward, except a trite in formiug u new street from Spitole
fickle Chinch.
The fission having been wooded, a abort discussion
ensued, to which it was urged that BF the mesa' of °dry-
ing out this work could now only be (damned by the direct
taxi-aim of the metropolis, it would be better to wait
for a few months to w i

such improvement&
Mr. Dixon amod to the auggedion, and for the present
'withdrew his motion.
The rest of the businow was not worthy of a report.
