SALE OF GOODS FOR CHURCH-RATES
On Friday last, the goods belonging to Mr. Steer and Mr
Chollerton, which we stated last week had been seized for
Church-rates, in the parish of All Saints, in this borough,
were sold in the Market Place. It will be seen from the
following statement, that the public generally discovered
the greatest repugnance to purchase ; in fact, the property
of Mr. Chollerton did not sell for more than half its value,
and that of Mr. Steer for about_ one-fourth. Mr. Steer's
goods, worth about 61. were sold for 11. 13s. 9.1. ; the
expenses with the Church-rate. were 1/. 17s. 10d. Mr.
Chollerton's cheese fetched 1/. ss. lid.; the expenses of
the Church-rate amounted (to 11. lls. 3d. So that the
Churchwardens to obtain los. iod., the sum recovered,
have sacrificed property belonging to conscientious men,
amounting to about 91. l Is it possible that soci, ty can bear
these proceedings ? Tnese are the worst enemies to the
Church who expose it to this odium.—Derby Reporter.
A troop of Royal Horse Artillery, from Breeden
barracks, arrived in Derby this morning, on their way to
Leeds, consisting of 48 men and 3 guns.
