1 the HALF-YEARLY IVIEETING of the
DEPUTIES from the several CONGREGATIONS of
PROTESTANT DISSENTERS of the THREE DENOMI-
NATIONS, PRESBYTERIAN, INDEPENDENT, and BAP-
TIST, in andwithin 12 miles of London, appointed to protect their
Civil Rights, held at the King's Head Tavern, in the Poultry,
London, on WEDNESDAY, the 25th day of May, 1836
HENRY WAYMOUTH, Esq., in the Chair,
It was resolved-
1. That while the Religion of the State was Roman Catholic,
Tithes were applied to the maintenance of the Poor and of the He-
clesifisti* fabrics and worship, as well as of the Clergy, both superior
and subordinate ; that since the Reformation they have been dis-
charged from the relief of the poor, and nearly the whole of the)
present Church revenues has been appropriated to' the use of the
Clergy.
2. That it appears from the Report of the Ecclesiastical Com-
missioners for England and Wales that the net annual income of
the Archiepiscopal and Episcopal property is 169,1141., of the Ca-
thedral and Collegiate property 272,828/., of the Benefices
3,05Q,248/., making a total annual income of 3,491,190/., a very
small assessment on which sum would be adequate to the maintes.
!lance of the edifices and worship of the Established Church.
3. That already in Ireland by 3d and 4th William IV,, c. 37,
has Parliament enacted a yearly assessment on the present value of
ecclesiastical benefices snd livings, in order to provide a fund in
lieu of Church Rates, which were by the same Act abolished.
4. That a sufficient portion of the ample revenues of the 0-,urch
of England ought to be appropriated to the purposes for which
Church Rates have been levied, or the expenses of repairing the
Churches, and of defraying the charges of Divine Worship in them,
should be met by the voluntary subscriptions of the members of
that communion.
5. That if, as has been asserted by high authority in the Church,
she comprises within her pale the great majority of the Nation, in-
cluding the hereditary nobility, and a large proportion of the wealthier
classes, in whose affections she is said to live, your petitioners have
a right to complain of the injustice of compelling the minork, who
do not belong zo her cmatunion, or avail themselves of her instrue-
tons, but mho conscientiously dissent from her rights and ceremo-
nies to contribute to her suppoc t.
6.
.That there is sufficient reason to believe that there are in
England alone, exclusive of Wales, nearly 8,090 places of public
Env belonging to Protestant Dissenters of the Presbyterian,
Independent, and Baptist denominations, to Wesleyan and other
Methodists, and to the Quakers, without' any charge upon the na-
tional funds for the expense of their erection and repair, and for
the maintenance of their ministers and worship, and supported by
the voluntary contributions of those bodies of Christians respec-
tively:_

7. That upon a moderate computation the erection cf those
buildings cannot have occasioned the outlay of less than a million
and a t. sterling ; and that the repair of them, the expenses of
worship, and the maintenance of the Ministers, cannot be less than
a million sterling per annum ; and that the imposition of any tax
on persons contributing so largely in augmentation of the means of
Public Religions Instruction, in order to provide for the worship of
the Established Church and the repair of edifices appropriated
solely to its use, cannot but be felt as a great grievance and a
palpable injustice.
8. That in many parishes, both extensive and populous, have
Church Rates ceased to be made and collecttd, in consequence of
.the determined opposition of the Inhabitants, and that any mode
for providing, either wholly or partly, for the expenses formerly in-
cluded in Church Rates, by an appropriation of the Public Income
of the United Kingdom, will be the imposition of a fresh tax upon; such districts, and of a tax upon Scotland and Ireland, for the ex-
clusive benefit of the amply endowed Established Church of Eng-
land and Wales.
9. That the exaction of Church Rates has always been regarded
by your petitioners and by Protestant Dissenters, as one of the
principal grievances of which they have to complain. That the
just expectation of the country at large, and of Protestant Dissen-
ters iu particular, which was raised by the abolition of Church
Rates in Ireland, will not 'ba realized until the same principle ba
adopted with respect to Church Rates in England. That petitions
to both Houses of Parlirment, founded on these Resolutions, be
prepared and signed by the Deputies.
HENRY WAYMOUTH, Chairman.

,AT the HALF YEARLY MEETING or the
DEPUTIES from the SEVERAL CONGREGATIONS
of PROTESTANT DISSENTERS of the THREE DENOMI-
NATIONS, PRESBYTERIAN, INDEPENDENT, and BAP-
TIST in and within twelve miles of London, appointed to protect
their Civil Rights, held at the King's. Head Tavern in the Poultry,
London, on Wednesday the 25th day of May, 1836,
HENRY WAYMOUTH, Esq., in the Chair,
It was resolved-
1. That the withdrawmcnt of their Deputies by the following
Eight. Congregations from this Deputation be aaceptssel and re-
corded (that is to say) of the Congregations at Brentiord, Carter-
lane, Essex-street, Hackney, Hampstead, Jewin-strset, Newington-
green, and Stamford-street.
The attention of the Meeting having bee., called to a 'pries of
Resolutions Tensed at a meeting of certain Presbyterian Dissenters,
held at Dr. NVilliams's Library, on the "Jth of March last,
2. Resolved—That this Deputatie-a was established in 1736, for
the purpose of procuring the rep.al of the Test and Corporation
Acts, and its attention was after .sards directed also to the protec-
tion of the civil rights 6f Protestant Dissenters generally.
3. That the Deputation was formed by each of the Congregations
whose Ministers Were associated with the General Body of the
Three DPnsminations of Dissenting Ministers in and about London
and Westminster, returning two Deputies.
That for many years after the formation of the Deputation, the
Deputies from Presbyterian Congregations constituted a very large
proportion of the whole number, and had a preponderating influ-
ence in the Committee, but that of late years their number has
undergone a great diminution, while that of the other denomina-
tions has increased, which has protlaced a corresponding alteration
in the Committee, and that at the time of the secession, the Depu-
tation consisted of Representatlves from 14 Presbyterian, 53 Inde-
pendent, and 36 Baptist Congregations.
With reference to the sth esolution, declaring that they have
witneased "a continued and obvious dispositiori on the part of many
members of other denominations, to act upon exclusive distinctions
subversive of the equality and independence of such portions of the
aggregate Dissenting Societies as do not coincide with the doc-
trinal creed of the majority hostile to the principles on which
they have combined their efforts and contributions, and con-
stantly tending to the comparative dcgradaCon and depression of
the Presbyterian denomination in particular ;"
4. Reselved—That it this Resolution be intended to apply to
this Deputation, the Deputation denies altogether any departure
fronm the prineples of union on which the Deputation was founded,
upon which it has continued to act, and finds that in the Com-
mittee of the Deputation there has been, up to die present time,
a number of the representatives of the Presbyterian conaregations
fully adequate to their proportion of the aggregate of congregations
u loch are united in the Deputation. These statements are con-
firmed by the Protest Eresented to the Resolutionists by two of the
Deputies, who attended their meeting, of which the fulloaing is an
extract .
" Dissentient.—Because the Presbyterian Body is united with
their Independent brethren as Deputies, solely for the maintenaness
and advancement of the civil rights of Dissenters of every denomi-
nation ; and in the assertion and defence of those rights, each party
has shown itself equally earnest, unwearied, and consistent.
" Because, •whilst it is asserted in the Resolution of the English
Presbytelians and General Baptists, that the flagrant violation, Ly
the Independent Dissenters, or the right of private judgment, is
the main reason for the proposed separation, it appears to us that
the course of proceeding recommended by them is liable to the
same censure; for, to refuse longer to act with our Independent.
Brethron as Dissenting Deputies, in which character our past exer-
tions, our present interests, and stir future prospects, have beers
and are identical, because our particular interests and opinions may
differ from theirs, upon subjects totally unconnected with the objects
for which alone we were deputed, is of the essence of intolerance,
and breathes the spirit of persecution."
sth. That as this Deputation were no parties to the recent suc-
cessful legal proceedings, to which the resolutionists refer, all their
comslaints upon that subject are wholly inapplicable to this de-
putation.
6th. That this. deputation will continue to maintain with ma-
bated fidelity and zeal the great principles of civil and religious
liberty, which it has hitherto professed, that it cordially rejoices at
the glowing practical influence of those principles on the public
mind, and in the British Legislature, and that it relies on the
avowed disposition and public pledges of his Majesty's Ministers to
relieve Protestant Dissenters front the violation of the rights of
conscience, the civil disabilities, and the ecclesiastical oppressions of
which they still have to complain.
7. That while this Deputation has no intention of claiming, to
represent the opinions and feelings of the congregations which '.rave
now withdrawn, vet as several Presbyterian congregations cofstinne
T.the making
their connection with it. as heretofore, this Meeting sees no °erasion

(Continued from The Sun of yesterday.)
SALARY OF THE CHAIRMAN.

Colonel Wool) presented the Report from the Committee,
typointed to communicate to the Government the resolutions
passed by the Court on the 14th of Ap,il last, on the subject-
of it salary to the Chairman. The Report stated that the
Deputation lead waited on Lord Johnßuisell, and had corn-
munivated to hire the Resolutions of the Court. Ilis Lord-
Phil) bad stated. that As the Court had not adonted his propo-
Otion, he decidedly objected to recommend to the Lords of the
Treasury that they should pay any money to the Chairman of
the Court. He was ttiil willing to do so, if the Government
lord the appointment of the Chairman in their hands.
Fir P. LAunIF was not now about to take credit to himself
for foreright. in havi,ig forAold ulta would be the result of
(!eputatinn : that re,,nit was jut as he hail anticipated.
lie, however, felt bound to return hi, thanks to the gentlemen
the deputation. though he regretted that they had gone up
_lre regretted that the Court should have an answer in the,
same terms on their records twice in the same month. He
trusted be would nev, r see a Chairman in their Court who
was appointed by the Government.—( Elear, hear.) There
was no doubt there would always be found many gentlemen
in the Court suite able and willing to give his abilities for the
Chair

Sir C. Foallas said it but right that the Magistrates of
this metropolitan county should have the appointment of their
own Chairman. He considered that the Deputation had ex-
ceeded their instructions, and that the refusal cf Lord John
Russell to give ass alary to their excellent Chairman arose from
his Lordship's gasping at the patronage of the office. If the
Court consented to the appointment of UChairman bv the Go-
vernment, he, for one, wonld never again vote in the Court,
;end he hoped others would follow his example. The Govern-
rrik nt was now all powerful ; they could do just as they
p:;:ased, and were every day putting persons in the commission
of the peace without the sanction of the Lord Lieutenant of
the county and if they thought proper, they might strike his
( Sir C. For!,,7.s's) name out of the lists to-morrow.
Colonel Wool), on behalf of the deputation who waited on
Lord J. Russell, dc-;ed that they had exceeded their instruc-
tions. They were delayed to ascertain the intentions of the
Government as to the pe:vntert of a salary to the Chairman of
these Sessions, and the Government replied in the affirmative,
provided the appointment of Chairmen were allowed to remain
with them. 1F the rate-payers of the county thought proper
to sanction the payment of a salary :made by this Court, it
would be competent for them to do so ; but he thought that
would be too much to expect intimes like the present.
_ Sir J. S. LILLIE said if the correspondence between the
deputation and his Majesty's Government were read, it would
best explain how far, if in any degree, the deputation had ex-
ceeded their instructions.
A long and desultory conversation occurred' upon the ques-
tion whether or not the whole of the motion made in Court re-
lative to the appointment of the deputation, with the cones.
pence, Sze., should be read, in which several gentlemen took
part ; when—
A NIAGISTRATF: (whose name we did not hear) suggested
that all the difficulty' about paying the Chairman, could be
settled, by making him at once Chairman and Treasurer of
of the county.—( Loud laughter, and no.)
Sir RHIN GIBBONS—That would be decidedly against the
Act of Parliament.
Mr. BROUGUTON defended the conduct of the deputation,
and considered it exceedingly unfair to charge Lord John
Russell with a disposition to grapple at patronage, in the ap-
pointment of their Chairman. All that he would say was,
that the interests of justice, and the county, equally required
that they should have a permanent and intelligent Chairman.
Mr. McWineiAsi did not sec how they could go on year
after year without paying a chairman for this Court. No re-
sponsibility attached at present to the discharge of its duties,
and he was sure that without payment, directly or indirectly,
few competent men in this county would be found to discharge
its duties.—After some further observations, the Report was
received and agreed to.
OFFICE OF TREASURER OF THE COUNTY.
The Report of the Committee appointed to inquire into the
-value of the duties and .amount of the emoluments of Trea-
surer of the County, was next read by Mr. Allen, from which
it appeared that its duties were a high and very responsible
nature, that he was liable for errors Tin his calculations of esti-
mates and payments of bills to creditor 4 of the 'county, and that
be had to pay clerks 2301. a ear, beside roany expenses at the
Central Criminal Court.' The Committee, therefore, briefly
recommended that the salary should be continued at its pre-
sent rate of 7501. a year; that the sureties should be reduced
to 12,000/. (at present 20,0001.); that all moneys bor-
rowed for the use of the county should be invested in Ex-
chequer Bills, and placed in the Bank of England ; that an
account should be kept in the Bank of England in the tree-
stirer's name, and those of the chairman of the sessions ands
chairman of accounts, which should be submitted periodically
to the inspection and control of the general committee of ac-
counts ; that in thirty days after making a new rate, a full
statement of the treasurer's accounts should be rendered to the
Court ; that the treasurer should keep a correct list of the
churchwardens and overseers of each parish, in order to meet
cases of default of paying the rites ; that he should make an
estimate of the amount of interest due on all bonds, &c., of
-the county ; and that he should make all payments without
• partiality or favour, &c. The report concluded by recom-
mending that they should advertise for candidates to send in
testimonials before the 28th June neat, and that the election
should take place on the 7th July next.
After ;some discussion it was decided that the report should
printed and circulated. and taken -into consideration the next
court day. The Court then adjourned.

Mr.. Reece, an optaent planter lately deceased, has
bequeat:ied 11,000/. towards the funds of the Wesleyan Mis-
sionaries, together with half an acre of land to each of his
negro appreOicee.
On Wednesday se'ennigla, an alarming occurrence
happened to the wife of Mr. Hodge, miller at Milnab, near
Crieff, upon her going to a park, near her residence, where
a number of cattle were crazing. She hat one of her children
in her arms, and another by her side. Sho. - had no sooner
appeared, tle,n an infuriated cow made a violen4 attack upon
her and her two children. The animal first rushed 'men the
child by her side, and knocked it down. The 'mother, for
the protection of the child, laid down the one in her arms, and
ran to aid the other;- hot she had no sooner done so, than the
animal attacked the child she had just laid down. The mo-
ther, in a state of desperation,• seeing no other way of saving
her children, prostrated herself over ti:: m. The animal then
rusluA upon herself, butting her severely; and had it not
been for the timely aid of a number of labouring men, who
ran to her assistance, it is probable the mother acid her two
children would haw fallen a sacrifice to the fury of the en-
raged animal. -Er( i ;lb urgh Courant.
LuDicatws.—A superstitious notion is enter-
tained by some obi people that any one afflicted with the hoop-
ing cough. on taking such ismedy as recommended by the first
num with a white. horse who may be net with, will find the dis-
order greatly mitigated, if not entirely removed. Of a belief
in this. the following curious example occurred on Friday
se'enniglit. in the Shiprow, Aberdeen :—A man was leading
a white horse in a cart down the street, when an old woman
hastened to meet him ; but from her weakly decrepit state,
vas only able, with totterins, steps, to reach the back part of
the cart—laying held of which, she cried out, as loud as she
was able, " filar; wi' the white horse, fat's good for the kink-
host ?" Receiving to answer, owing to the old man's deaf-
ness, the poor woman supposing him indifferent to her call, in
a supelicet Mg tore Of great earnestnees repeated her applica-
tion, saying. " 0, I'm na scorrine ; fat's guid for the kink-
host ?" A lady, seeing the anxiety of the old woman, kindly
A, cut to the man, and tel lug what was wanted, suggested to
bins to recernue lel bread -mid honey ; but he seemed to have
his own vien 5, and prescribed " brimstone" and honey. This,
however, beiag diseppreved of by some of the hystardere, the
man. in exercise, no dcuht, of his just right as medical adviser.
and somewhat of importance. said he " wadna alter, as brim-
steer, was guid fur lousin," (slackening.) This novel scene,

number el people, who, as well as two women who were in the
testified the anoteenent it had afforded by bursts of loud

zioNi N A MBULI;iII.--011 SWAM soon after mid-
Light, the eielit w.rehman, mimed Paviour, was going his
stalk along Ca'lde,-;l. street, Bedford, when he saw a figure
II bite npproachiug him along the middle of the ro d with
great rapidity, ail with an almost noiseless tread, although
the stern taken appeared to t e about tee yards at a stride.
The watchman. although not at ell certain that it was not
wane supernatural appear:nee, made. an attempt to meet it,
when it swerved front him as it intentionally- Paviour, how-
ever. called out lustily, when the fieure clopped to the earth
as if shot, and began bawling "fire and murder" at the top of
his lungs. On examination, it turned out to be the footman
of Mr. T. Peerse, jun. He had mi at the time nothing but
Ins nightcap and shirt, and had come about a quarter of a mile
along the roar!. Some time elapsed before he could give any
aecount of his exploit, or understand how he came there, and
for a knell' of time insisted that the house was on fire. On
taking him borne the watchman discovered that the footman's
bedroom window, which was about seven or eight feet from the
ground, was open, and he must therefore have dropped from
that on the ground, and afterwards clambered mew the garden
gate, five or six feet high, into the public road. There ap-
pears little doubt that he was dreaming that the house was on
The, and under that impression made the extraordinary exit
above described. The watchman said that the footman's eyes
'Pyre open, and as he passed he appeared to be looking in a
:straightforward directioa. A
considerable part of Sergeant s-inn, which has
the judges and several of, the
for many years been occupied by
caned sergeants in chambers, ha; been ordered to be pul-
led down, and in a few days will be levelled to the ground.
The Atenticn is to pull down the whole of the inn, and on its
site to erect handsonae and commodious chambers for the ser-
geants, and a spacious and convenient suite of offices for the
judges. At the present time, however, only a portion of the
inn will be pulled down, extending from the chambers of Mr.
Baron Vaueban to those occupied by Lord Denman, the hit-
ter of which were occupied by Lord Ellentorough, and after-
'nards by Lord Tenterden. It is stated that a considerable
piece of ground, at the back of the houses in Chancery-lane,
extending to the Roll's yard, will be thrown into the inn, and
thus afford the opportunity of erecting a handsome building
it steed of the ill-constructed and inconvenient rooms now
.called the "Judges' Chambers." The learned sergeants who
lave been obliged to remove from the inn, in consequence of
!these alterations, hove taken offices in Chancery-lane ; and
the irdges, whose chambers are to be pulled down, will be
atecomusodated in the chambers of the other judges, but the
