BOW-SiRRET.

Psalm or Sr. PAUL, COMM Gamiztr.—An adjourned Petty
Sessions was held yesterday before Mr. Hauls and Mr. 31tosnuex,
for the purpose of passing the last year's accounts of the Overseers
of this parish. On the former occasion, the Magistrates were di-
vided in their opinion respecting the items in the accounts objected
to. by Mr. Corder, the present Vestry Clerk, and they adjourned
the inquiry in order that a Vestry Meeting might be called, and the
hems in dispute submitted to the consideration of the Vestry, before
they would decide upon them.
Mr. Corder now informed the Magistrates that a Vestry Meet-
, irg had been called, according to their desire, and at that Meeting
it had been unanimously resolved that the items were extravagant,
and ought to be reduced.
A long conversation theo ensued, which was little more than a
repetition of what took place tin the former occasion. Mr. Mtn-
stmt. was still of opinion that the charge of 18/. 6s. for a dinner
and expenses attendant on the visit of the parish officers to the paw
per children at nurse at Norwood was extravagant, looked too
much like a treat at the expense of the parish, and ought not to be
allowed. Mr. Halls, on the contrary, thought that it would be
unfair to fix such a stigma on these Overseers, by disallowing the
charge, when they had been performing a necessary and important
duty; and in having a dinner on the occasion, were only following
the example of their predecessors in office for many years.
Their Worships were regretting that a third Magistrate was not
present to determineohe point, when Sir 13111141 Z entered,
and was informed by them of he difficulty, and !requested to decide
upon it. His Worship, however, refused to have any thing to do
with their parish disputes, and be immediately retired.
In this dilemma the item was passed over for another consulta-
tion, with the assistance of a third 3lagiatrate.
On the several other objected items tbeireWorships were simi-
larly opposed to each other's °Onions and, after a very long and
li occasionally warm debate, they decned having any thing more to
do in the matter, and requested Mr. Corder to lay it before some
other two Magistrates.

Mr. Corder intimated that be should most certainly do so, and
all parties retired.
Lir L Hums was occupied all the morning in the examination
of two persons who bad been apprehended by on suspicion
of having been concerned in the burglary at West 3ioulsey. The
examination took place in thf• clerk's room, and was strictly private.
