MARYLEBONE VESTRY.
(THIS DAY.)
The vestry having met this morning, at the twill
hour, the clerk, after reading the report of last week's
meeting, called the attention of the vestry to a letter.
complaining of the erection of buildings in front of some
houses in Cottingham-terrace, New-road. The letter'
was from Mrs. Jennings, a lady having a house in Cot-
tingham-terrace, is front of which a stable had been
erected, in consequence of which the rent of the house
had fallen from 1301. to 90/. ; and a similar fall had taken
place in the rent of other houses in the terrace.
A VESTRYMAN expressed his opinion that the vestry
had no need to interfere on this occasion. If the inhabi-
tents of Cottingham-terrace were annoyed by buildings
between them and the road they :could themselves pro^
teed against the parties, as well as the vestry.
Mr. GOMM said that the vestry were not sufficiently.
active in preventing such nuisances ; that the erection (.4
such buildings ought to be interfered with before their
completion; that persons might not be aware of the ille-
gality of such erections as those in question ; and If
notice of the intention of the vestry to take measures to
remove them was sent to the parties in time, it would
save them much expense and inconvenience.
Mr. WILSON thought that it was the business of the
parties concerned, and not the business of the vestry, to
proceed against such erections, and that the vestry'
ought not to interfere in the matter.
The conversation then dropped.

LIE NEW HOSPITAL FOR CONSUMPTION,
Notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, ,f 11,6
works of the new building at Brompton are proceedt
rapidly, and it is sincerely hoped that in a few month
the western wing will be roofed in, and the interior por
tion in progress. During the past week the Committ
have received several valuable donations, and at the lo
meeting of Governors, at which Sif John Hare, Bart"
&c., presided, the most enthusiastic feelings were er
pressed that the good work would be very speedily cot;
summated. The annual income of the hospital ft°
subscription now somewhat exceeds I,loof.
A DETESTABLE WRETCH.--A A miscreant 0, the
name of Stokes, who has been residing in Sunder's°,
for two or three years past, but who is a native s°l.
where in the neighbourhood of London, has been
mitted to Durham gaol by the magistrates of Sunderl,',o
for a disgusting felony committed with a young e:00
about twenty years of age, whom he kept in the ft ;r
with him. The details were so shocking that the I0„''to
trates could scarcely maintain the patience necessar-Ithe
the dignity of a court of justice in listening t° the
examination, and the wretch conducted himself wit-b,,p-
most brutal hardihood. He was in comfortable eire:, if
stances, and lived in a low part of the town, seld°l-ey,
ever, feeling any inconvenience from want of etted'
His remittances from the south were said to be Pt11)-j)ich,
and liberal for a person living in the low style in vr re.
he indulged. The whole neighbourhood in which he.ith
sided seems to have been polluted by his example

The members of the Licensed Victuallers' Pret6oec.;
tion Society, of Birmingham, associated with the,oed
cteties of many other important towns, have deterin' the
to convene a meeting of delegates appointed bYroble
licensed victuallers throughout the kingdom, to a°eiielv
