METROPOLIS LOCAL MANAGEILINT ACT.
Thu cotumittee re-assembled out Thursday, Mr. F.
Peel in the chair, and concluded it. labelers,
Mr. Keene appeared in support of a petition from the
of Islington, sad proposed a eines, the object of
whichr was to secure the formation of a perk for Finsbury.
The learned petlemaa stated that the act of 1467, which
was passed at the instance of the Metropolitan honed of
Works, empowered the board, within a period of fire years,
to secure certain open lands foe the parpoes of forming a
park, but that on the 11th Febr ury,1469, they bad pawed
• resolution stating that at preeent it wee Ines • tto take
skips for pun:liming or securing that. land. The vestry
hoped the committee would insert suck • clause in the
present bill as would insure the carrying out tithe objectoon-
templated by the act of 1657.
The (Antietam inquired if it was compulsory at the board
to take the lend

Mr. Keene replied that it was riot, but it was most de-
sirable that some steps should be taken to secure the land
se aeon as possible. se buildings were springing up round
its zuar,cin, and the land was every day becoming more and
mere valuable. At present it could be purchased at a
cheap rate by eneaa. of deferred annuities, and the inhabi•
tants would not be deprived of the um of the open space
which the/ :ant for so long $ period enjoyed.
Mr. rhinit, 0.C., co behalf of the Metropolitan Board,
said they dal not at all underrate the importance of the
question, but the legislature having cast upon them the
burden of expending 3,000,000 f. they considered Awned
exercised a wine discretion in deferring the farmation of a
park for Finsbury, the estimated cost of which wan
216,0000. They bad 'till two years left in which to accom-
plish the object, and trusted the committee would not snake
the duty imperative. Of course, tf the committee adopted
the clause of hia learned friend, the board must adopt the
course pointed out, and lay an additional burden on the
nt!yers.
Keene urged the committee b compel the board to
mecum the land, which, he observed, might be obtained
on ressionahle terms, as it was the property of the &deli-
uncut Cuaniniseioners—flaugliter)--who would be willing to
receive the purchase money by instalments.
The Chairman did not think the committee ought to
compel the hard to make the purchase.
The clause woe therefore rejected.
After a.m.! other clauses of a technical nature bad been
disposed of the proceedings terminated.
