POLICE IN TELLIGENCE.
- MANSION-HOUSE.
Mr. Burgon, a resident householder iu Becklersbury,
was summoned before the Lord Mayor and Alderman
Johnson for having refused to pay the church-rate to the
amount of tl 2s. to the parochial officers of the united
parishes
of Walbrook and St. Benet-Shcrehog. The
goods of the defendant had been se'v.d and sold last year
for a similar demand.
Proof having been given of the application to the de-
fendant, and bis refusal to comply with it,
Mr. Burgon said he could not think of complying
with 60 unreasonable and so unprincipled a demand.
His house was in the parish of St. Benet-Sherchog, in
which there had been no church for many a year, and
he could not conjecture why the inhabitants should be
called upon to pay under such circumstances. But he
objected to pay the rate on higher ground—on the
ground of religious exception, inasmuch as he could not
consent to adopt the tenets of a church which recognised
the principle of baptismal regeneration, a doctrine
wholly founded in error.
The LORD MAYOR said it would be competent for the
defendant to object to the payment of the rate upon the
ground that there was no church in the parish, and he
might appeal to the Quarter Sessions, or to the Ecclesi-
astical Court accordingly; but it was not in the power
of the magistrates sitting as he and Alderman Johnson
were sitting, to take into consideration the conscientious
scruples of Mr. Burgon.
Mr. Burgon said he had not the least fancy for an ap-
peal to the Ecclesiastical Court, and he did not at all
like to see his property confiscated. He had the same
sort of objection to pay the rate which the Bishop of
Cashel had to vote for the grant of a sum of money for
the
support of Maynooth College, because he considered
the doctrines heretical.
The LORD MAYOR said Mr. Burgon must know
very well that he and his brother magistrate were
tohbeAligidrm
eacdteb.y Act of Parliament to compel the payment of
Alderman Jonssotr—lf the magistrates at Quarter
Sessions are appealed to, and they consider there is no
church for the parishioners to attend, that may form a
ground of objection sufficient to exempt you. To which
court would you wish
toesaSop
neas?
l—to the Ecclesiastical
Court or to the Quarter S
Mr. Burgon—To the Quarter Sessions, by all means.
Your Lordship will greatly oblige
that the property seized, in excess me
if
or the yz contrive
rate,be
applied to the liquidation of this demand.ttshave received a
The LORD MAYOR—If the authorities
larger sum for the property they seized, they must
refund to you, or an action will lie.
Mr. Burgon—You must be aware that I cannot conde-
scend
to receive money which had been taken from me,
by force. I cannot live upon plunder.
The clerk to the parochial authorities said the money
in excess from the sale of the goods had been offered and
refused at Mr. Burgon's house.
Mr. Burgon—They seized a table which cost me 304,
and a glass which cost me 91., for the sum of 5/., and sold
them to pay that amount and the expenses. I should
think that the excess ought to satisfy the churchwardens
for their demand, and your Lordship may order them to
accept that money.
Alderman JOHNSON—No. Two separate questioes
are involved in that.
Mr. Burgon—They may as well take a howitzer at
once and knock my house about my ears.
Alderman JOHNSON—You know the conditions upon
which you took your house; one of which was, that you
should pay this rate; and we have no alternative. You
can appeal to the Quarter Sessions.
Mr. Burgon then left the magistrates under the im-
pression that he would appeal at the.,Quarter Sessions;
but he seemed determined to adhere to his expressed in-
tention not to touch a farthing of the money which had
been received in excess by the sale of his goods.
The crowd in the justice. room seemed to be struck
with the singularity of the case, and of the party com-
plained against, who observed, in the course of the con-
versation, that this country, which was called part of
Christendom, ought rather to be called Devildom.
THAMES.
William Potter, a shoemaker, appeared for the second
time before Mr. Yardley to answer a charge of assault.
ing an aged man named Oates, and illegally turning him
and his wife out of the almshouses behind St. Matthew's
Episcopal Chapel, formerly called Mulberry-gardens
Chapel, in Pell-street, Ratcliff Highway. The case
had been allowed to stand over for the purpose of
enabling Potter to make some compensation to the
aged complainants for tho breakage of their property
while ejecting them from the lower room of the alms-
house. Tho defendant had made no reparation for the
injury. Eventually the magistrate decided that Potter
should pay the complainant 18s. and 2s. costs. The
money was immediately forthcoming, and Mr. Yardley
' strongly recommended the trustees to pursue their rights
in a legal manner. _ .
