MARYLEBONE VESTRY•

(THIS DAY.)
noir
This morning two gentlemen, residing in New-re.
treet, Oxford-street, presented to the above vestry tiole
quisition from the inhabitants of Newman-street, e
cerning the macadamisation of that street. cleJ
Mr. EDWARDS, one of the deputation, re° noti
the vestry that on a previous occasion, the Ye to
having been requested to cause this street ot
be macadamised, agreed to do so the nor
time the road required repairing. In consecitifeeetv
of some repairs which were going on in Oxford-stfge
Newman-street had become the principal thorough the
for omnibuses, and it being now in a very bad state,

inhabitants, a great number of whom were artisis,,eeie.
much annoyed by the noise of the rolling of the "thet
and, indeed, some of these artists had said, they were were unable to study, in consequence of It• htai
great number of hackney cabs and other vehicle° go
also made this street their thoroughfare, in ordefor
avoid as much as possible the wood pavement in
ford-street.
A VESTRYMAN thought that not only the CS-5 ael
coaches, but also a great number of the inhabits.et'eet,
Oxford-street, would be glad to fly to Newman-s°'
to escape from the wood paving.—(A laugh.) the
The vestry, after a long discussion, resoteed that
requisition should be complied with.
„or
The VESTillt-CLERK read to the vestry a conlo- ie-
tion from the Committee appointed some time ag°, t 0,4,
quire into a nuisance complained of by Mrs. Jenru°°'
resident of Nottingham-terrace, New-road.
f; t4l
Some weeks ago a communication was receive-
.fogo
that lady, complaining of the erection of some bailuloci
in front of several houses, of which hers was ope',,lth
which were contrary to the " New-road Act," the 'ire
of George 111. The committee appointed to irt-,trie
into the correctness of this lady's statement this ogitare
ported to the vestry that they had examined into tneOtoes,
of the erection complained of, that they were nuiwwere
and contrary to the Act, but that the committee sod,
of opinion that they were no public ineonvenience;„ 00
therefore, if they were any annoyance to this lady
wye
her place to prosecute as a private individual, and it
unnecessary for the vestry to interfere.
