which was carried amidst great confusion.
The Rector having left the chair, it was taken by Air.
Edmonds, and a vote of thanks passed to the Rev. Gen-
,leman for his able and impartial conduct.
The meeting separated at o'clock. A rate is, there-
fore, ultimately refused, and it remains to be seen what
compulsory steps the churchwardens will take. It is re-
ported, that they refuse to pay the salaries of the beadles,
or the cleaning of the churches.
