ISLINGTON PARISH.

Thursday evenleg, a amorous and respectable Meeting of the
inhabitants et this parish wee held at the Church, to receive the
opinion of famed on the spseetion whether the parishioners have
the right of eleadog an Afternoon Letterer Sr not.
At is o'clock, the Rev. Damon Waeos. the Vicar, took the
Chair:

Mr. Witguisen then rose and said, that pekes than three Meet-
ings had already been held upon the subject t and at the Vestry held
ea the 30th March laat, it was agreed to take the opinion of COMM
upon the sublect. A ease was thee 'prepared and laid before Dr.
Leshington for his opinion, which he would take the liberty et
reading. (Cries of Read the case toe," awiewasiderable uproar).
The Cements widerseered to resters order, but was interrupted
with ales of it Ide limnbee.oe partiallty.do your duty." Aber

" I am of opinion that the parisithay;e Beet a Lec-
turer ; such a right can exist only by virtue of linmensaial rap,
and an sage most striedy proved, for it Is in &dumdum of both
the Common and Ecclesiastical Law. In lay judgment it Is wholly
port whether the Vicar declare his Intention of doing the
duty if or not. The Vicar mak de the duty of Vicar, as by
law required, and may do as amok mere as he deems right; but if
he does not, the parish have on le elect another individual. I
think the evidence wholly to peeve the legal existence of
a Lectureship, independent of the-Visa.
(SiPed) "STEPHEN LUSHINGTON."
Mr. Wampum concluded by siseelog the following Resolution
That the ease and opinion now presented to the Vestry be read,
and entered ea the minutes, and that no further proceedings be
taken with reformat to the skulks et an shaman Letterer in
this Parish."
Mr. PINICIWAIL .toadied the Rllllolllltisa.
Mr. Stistause then ewe to propose an amendment. He said the
Vicar at the last mooting bad protested spina their proceedings as
Illegal. Did he mess se blow bet and add with the same breath ?
Mr. litscnesa—To be sure be doss—be Is a parson.
Mr. Sam onse concluded a speech of great length by moving the
following amendment :
44 That the ease be neither reed nee received, nor the maim of
it defrayed oat of the parochial Ned"
Mr. Mama, is seconding the amendment, said that the cam.
duet of the Vicar Is presiding on the occasion was in violation of
every principle of decency, since be sits in judgment in his own
cause. He mesa no offence to the Vicar—(Load laughter). He
was certainly armed by law to deprive them of a privilege, if not of
a right, which they bad exercised without interruption for 150 years,
and was the first who had endeavoured to exercise that power.—
The Vicar might refuse the use of his pulpit to the Gentleman
elected, and he would leave to the Vicar the honour or odium of
Me willies of No parishioners.
lill.lll3nem said that if they supported the original motion their
right of election would be for ever lost.
A division was then demanded by the friends of the Vicar, and
the church deers were closed for two boors. The result was de-
clued to he as•felaws :

For the amendment . 185 I Against it . . 235
Mr. Mammon then moved that this Vcstry do now adjourn,
which Parr. Miner opposed.
On a division, the numbers Wlltre.
