THE NEW POLICE RATE.

Last night a meeting of certain of the inhabitant householders of
St. Martin's-in-the-Fields was held at the house of Mr. Harnett,
the Mitre, in St. Martin's-lane, for the purpose of "taking into con.
sideration tffectual means against the rate of the New Police.*
Mr. AnnoTT was called to the chair, and briefly stated the ob-
jects of the Meeting, as narrated above.
Several parishioners spoke against the New Police force, and the con.
quent rates which had been imposed.
One Parishioner, who stated that he lived in one of the streets
leading from the Strand, said that his street was in two parishes, and
before the new police was organised, had the benefit of two wa•chmenk
since then, however, he had been rated double, and frequently at
night, for an hour together, no police-man was to be seen in the
whole street ; in short, it was well known that the new police were more
employed in talking to fruit girls, and down areas to servant wenches,
than in attending to their duty. He thought the new rate followed
the old one too quickly, and he loudly complained of the amalgamation
of peons rates and police rates, which, by the Act of Parliament made
' for the provision of the police, was the case. Against that body. if the
members of it did their duty, he (the Parishioner) should not object,
although he confessed that he should rather like to see the guardians of
the night organized and amenable to the parish than to the government.
(Applause.)
A resolution, funning a Committee of fifteen members, with leave to
add to their numbers, for the purpose of corresponding and making ar-
rangements with other parishes in the metropolis prim to calling a ge-
neral meeting, at which one of the representatives of Westminster shall
be called upon to preside, was then passed onanimbifify.
A parishioner of St. Andrew's Holborn supported the object of the
Meeting, and promised his daily or hourly co-operation, as it might he
required in aid thereof.
Thanks were voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting separated.

of the warm and breezy state of the atmosphere haring drawn them oat
from their carriages, as the sun does bees from their hives, and thus
afforded a fuller opportunity of beholding their personal attraction-,
than on other occasions. It was universally known that the King a oa! I

spectators on both sides, they were warmly greeted. These war t

gentlemen, if not so noisy, was more respectful, and not les,s entltu:i-

di3lly acknowledged it—the King by taking off his hat, and k r M •
jesty by graciously bowing to the uncovered spectators, as they cheered
and waved their hats to their Sovereign and his Queen. The Royal eta-
kw comprised seven carria"cs, in which we observed the Duke and
Duchess of Glocester, the Duchess and Prince George of Cuathealand,
Prince Geotge of Cambridge, the Prince and Princess Esteriwy and
their son, the Dake and Duchess of Richmond, the Duke of Dorset,
' Earl and Countess of Errol, Lady Maryborough, Earl and Countess
of Jersey, Earl of Chesterfield, Lord and Lady Clinton, the Misses
Fitzclarence, Sir Frederick Watson, Sir T. Frcemantic, Sir Andrew
Barnard, &c. &c. &c. As soon as the Queen entered the Royal
stand, she came forward to the window, and was immediately hailed
ith cheers and waving of hats by the people who had crowded in front
to see her. tier Majesty made her acknowledgments by several gra_
. cious bows : and shortly afterwards the King came in view, and was
greeted in the same enthusiastic manner; in return for which his Ma-
jetty bowed several times. They were dressed in the same way as on
1 Tuesday. There were several other persons of rank on the ground,
' amongst whom we recognized the Marquis of Worcester, the Earl and
Countess of Sefton and Ladies Molineux, the Earl of Uxbridge Lord
Burghersh, the Earl 3f Fife, Lords Alvanley, Forester, W. Lennox,:
&c. Nothing could be In finer condition than the course, and it was
kept admirably clear, under the excellent arrangements which prevail
on this heath.

The following horses started for the first race, which was for

only recently sold to Lord Ranelagh.
As soon as the last race was over, the royal party took their departure
in nearly the same order as that in which they had arrived, and amid
the universal and hearty cheers of the spectators. Upon the whole, this
day's amusements passed off with considerable eclat, and seem. d ta
have afforded unqualified pleasure to those who attended them. We
did not heat of a single accident baying taken place.
