THR PROPOSED MEETING IN HYDE-PARK.—A
'special meeting of the council of the Reform League was
held last evening to take into consideration what nape
should be taken with reference to the holding of the pro-
weed reform meeting in Hyde-park on Monday next. Mr.
Edmund Beales took the chair. There was a large attend.
ance of members among whom were Mr. P. A. Taylor,
and Lieutenant-Colonel Dickson. A long din-warn
took platy, in the course of which the chairman said helm
what he had learned from many influential friends of the
League, both in penliament and otherwise, the question
merely rested on the right of public meeting. They were
to stand at his side wherever that meeting rnst
fir Lir, and to take their share of the responsibility ; t
they thought that to mix up the question with that a
right to meet in a particular locality WAS not advieable.
, He could not but admit there was some force in that oh-
I section, and it was for the council of the League to deter-
I mine what should be done. The question was whether
i the would persevere in holding the meeting in Hyde-
park, and take the risk of coming into collation
i with the police, or whether they would fall back upon
-square. Mr. I'. A. Taylor, M.P., confirmed the
tmprelesions conveyed by the chairman. A nuns.
of members of parliament were prepared to attend any
misting,ois if
it the notice ofo the commissioner of.pooallidoe wooetnt
be
gto
allowed; and they were determined to show by their
presence that they did not admit any right to prevent
i such & meeting. Hs trusted the people were not going
i to give up their right of public meeting, or their right to
meet in Hyde-park as well as in Trafalgar-square. A
resolution was ultimately adopted, to the effect that the
right of meeting in Hyde-park is a right of which the public
have pot been deprived of by any act of parliament, and
that the holding of the meeting be persevered in. It was
announced that the Lord Mayor would take the chair at
I the Guildhall meeting, which has been sanctioned by the
Court of Common Council.
