S UN, JANUARY 15, igl6 Pt, ICE sn.

A. MEETING, most respectably attended, of
landowners and occupiers of land, was held at the Bear Inn,
Vantage, this 12th day of January, for the purpose of taking into
consideration the propriety of opposing the Oxford and Salisbury
Direct Railway Company for an Act of Parliament to form their line.
PHILIP SMITII COXE, Esq., in the chair.
The following resolutions were proposed, seconded, and carried
unanimously :

RATING OF PRINCE ALBERT'S

FARM.

TO HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE ALBERT OF SAXE COBURG

AND GOTHA, K.Q.

The humble memorial of the undersigned churchwardens
and overseers of the parish of New Windsor :
Showeth—That your memorialists attended a meeting of
the parish of New Windsor, in the vestry, on the Bth day of
January inst.
That, at the instance of your memorialists, a majority of
the parishioners present at such meeting passed the following
resolutions :

That, in the opinion of this meeting, the suggested line of railway
from Oxford to Salisbury Direct is quite uncalled for, inasmuch as
there is neither passengers or goods traffic along the proposed line
requiring such accommodation, and consequently, that whilst a great
sacrifice of private property must take place, no adequate, if any,
benefit can possibly arise to the public by the formation of such
a line.

That as the line throughout presents one unbroken agricultural
district, possessing within easy distances markets and fairs amply
sufficient to absorb all the produce thereof, the scheme in question
appears to this meeting a mere wanton speculation of the day,
possessing neither merit in itself, or a reasonable prospect of a re-
turn for capital required for the undertaking.
That, with these impressions, the members of this meeting do use
their best endeavours, individually and collectively, to defeat the
proposed measure in Parliament, and that for such purpose a sub-
scription be entered into, and placed in the Bank of Messrs. Barnes
and Medley, Wantage Bank, to the credit of
PHILIP SMITH COX),
WILLIAM STONE,
CHARLES RONEY,
as trustees of a fund for carrying on and defraying the necessary ex-
penses attending a petition against the Bill, and the support thereof
in Parliament. _ . _ _

" That this vestry extremely regrets that the resolutions in
reference to the rating of his Royal Highness Prince Albert,
passed at the vestry meeting held on the 18th of Sep-
tember last, should have been so carried, inasmuch as this
meeting is now fully aware that his Royal Highness is not in
any way liable to be rated for the Flemish Farm. And that
this vestry deprecates the garbled statements set forth in the
public journals on the subject.
"That, inasmuch as the maintenance of the poor presses
heavily on the parishioners, a respectful memorial be now
presented to his Royal Highness, praying him to take the
state of the parish into his gracious consideration ; and that
such memorial be prepared and presented by the parish
officers."

That Messrs. Bischoff and Coae be requested to undertake the
conduct of such proceedings, and the following gentlemen do form a
Committee for the general direction and conduct of the business
generally, viz

That your memorialists cannot approach your Royal
Highness without expressing, in common with all the re-
spectable part of their fellow-townsmen, their deep and heart-
felt regret that any person should have been present at the
psaroidprvieestytryofwfheoelsinhgoudlduesoto yfarohuarvßeofoyragl igoHttenhtnheas,s as to havetrespectand
given utterance to some of those observations which have
appeared in the public prints, and which your memorialists

and

which have from time to time been inserted in the public
papers, have never been sanctioned or approved by your
memorialists, and have been published without their know-
ledge and concurrence, and have consequently caused great
pain and embarrassment to your memorialists.
That your memorialists, in humbly and respectfully lay-
ing their embarrassed position before your Royal Highness
in the first memorial, did so, as stated in such memorial,
from a necessity, as it were, cast upon them, and in opposi-
tion to their own feelings.
That your memorialists have a full knowledge and con-
viction that your Royal Highness is not in any way charge-
' able for any rates in respect of Flemish Farm, and regret
exceedingly the resolutions which were passed at the vestry
on the 18th of September last, which your memorialists
again beg to reiterate were passed without their participat-
ing therein.
That your memorialists scarcely know how to approach
your Royal Highness, in craving on the part of the parish
your gracious beneficence in aid of those funds which are
appropriated to the poor, because they feel that your Royal
Highness has not been treated by some (happily very few)
persons with that respect and propriety which was due to
your Royal Highness.
That your memorialists would, however, cast themselves
upon your Royal Highness's gracious consideration, knowing
full well that liberality and kindness which has always been
prominent in every act of your Royal Highness.
That your memorialists would again assure your Royal
Highness of the attachment and respect which is felt for your
Royal Highness in this royal highly-favoured borough.
And your memorialists will ever pray, &c.

WILLIAM INGALTON, Churchwardens.

That all cheques be signed by the secretary and two of the
Committee of Management, and countersigned by the Chairman.
That all other landowners and occupiers on the line, who may
dissent fYom the proposed measure, be communicated with, and
requested to join and co-operate in tke proposed opposition, and to
forward their subscriptions accordingly as soon as possible.
That Mr. J. H. Angell be appointed Secretary.
That this meeting feels called upon to notice, in strong terms,
the use made of the names of several respectable individuals, who
were placed on the list of the Provisional Committee, without pre-
vious consent being obtained, or their knowledge of the matter.
That these resolutions be printed in some of the leading journals
and local papers, for the information of all concerned.
That the thanks of this meeting be presented to P. S. Coxe, Esq.,
for his kind interest in this undertaking, and fer his impartial con-
duct in the chair.
Subscriptions immediately entered into-1054 collected.,
