It appeared that the Meeting ' roc themselveti most par-
ticularly called upon on behalf of be parish of Saint tire-
goty, to co-operate with the rest of the parishes affected
by the above Statute, in a petition to Parliament,, for an al-
teration or amendment thereof, not only _for the very power-
fill reasons contained in the circular of the Special Committee
of the Corporation of London, as affecting, the parishes ge-
nerally, but more particularly as the pariah of St. Gregory,
after paying a stipend for the maintenance of their. Rector, had
been for many years subject to' the imposition of 2.5. Yd. in the
pound to the minor canons of St. Paul's, as , impropriators
of the living, which in many cases has been enforced with
the utmost rigour ; and in one instance a bill was tiled against
an individual of the parish for payment of such rate on a
supposed value of his premises assessed by the impropriators
themselves, although such individual had already paid is. 9d.
in the pound on his actual rental, with the land-tax .added
thereto, as settled by the Deputy Remembrancer of the Court
of Exchequer.
The meeting then passed 'special thanks to the Corporation
for convening a meeting of the paiishes affected by the above-
m statute.

131:. BOTOLPLI, BISHOPSGATE.
A meeting of this parish was held, when it was unaimously
agreed to appoint a depUtatitin, consisting of the churchwardens
and vestry clerk, and 31r. White and Mr. Cordell, to confer
with the City Tithe Committee at Guildhall, on Friday, and
afterwards to report to the vestry relative to the proposed appli-
cation to Parliament for the relief of the several parishes sub-
ject to the operation of the above statute. It seemed highly de-
sirable to go hand in hand with the Lord Bishop ol'Ohmer, the
.Ikt:tor of the Parish; who is held in high esteem by the inha-
bitants, as to the measures proposed to be adopted. .

half of the Parish.
