KENSINGTON GARDENS.—The number of persons as-
sembled to hear the band in these gardens on Sunday
last was very great, and the conduct of the vast multi-
tude was most admirable. In consequence, however, of
the many complaints which have been made to the Office
of Works from the annoyance experienced by ladies and
others from persons smoking in the immediate neigh-
bourhood of the band, and actually in the verandah of
the refreshment room, a notice has been issued to the
effect that Hyde-park is open to the smokers, and the
whole of Kensington-gardens is equally at their ser-
vice, with the exception of the part indicated in the
notice, and it is to be hoped that the cause of the com-
plaint may not arise in future in the immediate vicinity
of the band, The following is the notice :—" Gentle-
men are requested not to smoke in the vicinity of the
music platform and refreshment room, as much com-
plaint has been made by visitors to the gardens in con-
sequence of this practice.—Office of Works, Aug. 20,
1855."

PARIS, FRIDAY.

The Moniteur says :—" The Queen of England

Grand Cross of the military Order of the Bath.
Her Majesty has also conferred the same honour
on General Canrobert. It is well known that this

this favour given to the Prince and General Can-
robert, to testify her appreciation of their services
in the common cause."
