The members of the Marylebone Association met on Wednesday night,

in the Mechanics Institution in Circus Street, New Road, for the purpose of prosecuting their opposition to the Assessed Taxes. There were nearly three hundred persons present. This is the parent Association, and now contains nearly one thousand members. The Secretary, after reading the minutes, informed the meeting that forty- four new members had been enrolled within the week. The re- ceipts of the week were 5l. las., and the addition of members within twenty-one days was 108. Mr. Savage moved that the deputations from the various Associations be requested to attend their public meet- ing the next week. Mr. Birch read a letter from Sir S. Whalley de- clining to preside at the approaching general meeting, on the ground that he could more appropriately advocate the 'repeal of the Assessed Taxes in his place in Parliament. He, however, expressed approval of the Associations as the only effectual means of obtaining the repeal, and considered them to be both loyal and justifiable. Several persons addressed the meeting, which was crowded to the last.

The Westminster Association for the Repeal of the Assessed Taxes met on Monday evening, at the Red Lion in Prince's Street, West- minster. Deputations from the Marylebone, Chelsea, and Lambeth associations, attended the meeting. The Secretary, Mr. Farren, an- nounced the enrolment of fifty new members, who had paid their sub- scriptions in the course of the evening. It was stated by the Chair- man, Mr. Tripp, a broker, that the inhabitants of St. George's, Pim- lico, were about to form an association. Dr. Wade, who was received with much cheering, and was duly enrolled a member of the association, made a long speech, in which he affirmed its legality as well as useful- ness. Several other speeches were made, and the meeting adjourned.

At a meeting of the Lambeth Association, on Tuesday, a series of resolutions and laws were proposed and adopted for the regulation of their future proceedings. A working man distinguished himself by making an extremely violent and abusive speech ; which, though it created some amusement, was generally disapproved of by the meeting.

A vestry meeting of St. George's in the East was held on Wednes- day, to petition Parliament to adopt measures for reducing the expense of the Police, and placing them under the control of the parishioners.
