, 311101111/N DOWlR,—TlTMEB.—Yesterolay, Dr. Owen.
Rector of St. Olave's. Hart-street, applied to the Lord
Mayor, to issue an order for the payment of a quarter's
tithes, against a solicitor, who resides in the parish, and
.to whom several summonses had been sent reqniriog his
attendance at the Mansion-house to answer the COta-
V:aint. Tbe solicitor, it appeared, had refused to pay
attention to the summonses, always making some trivial
excuse fee his non-compliance, and on the last occasion
be had take° no more than his usual autice of the au-
thority
. Dr. Owen stated, that it was with great reluctance he
.applied for an order which would make it imperative
upon the defendant to pay the NM 4eatended within a
certain number of days.
. The Loan MATOR said, he should wlsb the Doctor to
apply to.sonie other authority with which the power
might lie to interfere in such a case. For his own part
he considered the tithe system a most odiuos one; and,
entertaining such an opinion, he would rather not be
tailed upon to euforce an Act, against which the chl-
orins of Louden were daily crying out. His Lordship
observed, that if Dr. Owen was unwilling to prove and
enforce his claim in a court of justice, another summons
shan'd be served upon the defendant, and his Lordship
would hear and decide upon the merits of the case; but
without hearing the defence, he-could not think of is-
suing the order.
Dr. Owen said there certainly was an alternative in
as application to a court of justice, but be was extremely
.nowilllng to resort to an extremity disagreeable to him-
self, trot certainly calculated to do great injury to those
amongst his parishioners who might think themaelves
jostified in resisting the claim. That dein' had been
established by law, and those who might cent be pleased
with the chief magistrate's acquiescence in the act, had
it in their power to resort to a law process of another
kiMf, hich, however, would have no eirect but that of
adding an immense unnecessary expense to an expense
sanctioned in the strongest possible manner.
The LORD NATI/a observed, that be had seen petitions
• is Parliament inveighing against the system, and err-
. %Maly should take tante to consider whether he should
pretwedihn this case beyond the mere sending of the

Dr. Owen declared that such was amt by any mesas
