THE POOR-LAW BOARD AND THE PARISH OF MART-
LEBONE.—Yesterday a fully attended meeting of the
directors and guardians of St. Marylebone was held in
the board-room of the Workhouse, New-road ; the sub-
ject for discussion being whether the board would, or
would not, receive the resignation of the master of the
workhouse, arising out of the recent flogging of pauper
females, and it being understood that the Poor-law
Board bad also issued further orders upon the subject.
Mr. Vanheems occupied the chair. The Hon. and Rev.
W. Pelham (the rector) moved that, before the resigna-
tion of the master be dealth with, the secretary he de-
sired to obtain the opinion of counsel whether there is
anything in the local acts of this parish which exempts
this board from the provisions of those acts of Parlia-
ment which regulates the Poor-law Commission ; and if
not, whether such acts authorise the Poor-law Commis-
sioners, under any circumstances, to discharge the master
or any other officer of the workhouse independently of
the will of the board of guardians. The motion was
carried on a division by a majority of 17 to 7 ; and the
consideration of the other documents was deferred to the
next meeting of the board, which, after a long sitting,
separated.
