Where a navigation runs from A. to B, through several intervening parishes, and the tolls for the whole navigation are collected in those two parishes, they may be assessed to the poor-rates in those two parishes for the whole amount according to the proportion collected in each. The justices at the sessions are the proper judges of the equality of poor-rates ; and the Court of B. R. will not interfere upon the ground of their being unequal, unless the inequality be manifestly apparent on the rate.
