INCLOSIIRE OF KENNINGTON COMMON.—Lord John
manners has prepared and brought in a Bill to empower the
Commissioners of Works and Public Buildings to inclose and
lay out Kennington Common
as pleasure ground fur the re-
creation of the public. The preamble of the Bill sets forth i
the right of the Prince of Wales to Kennington Common, as
parcel of the Duchy of Cornwall, andgoes on to say that it
would greatly tend to the comfort and benefit of the inhabi-
tants of the district in the neighbourhood of the said Com-
mon, if the same were inclosed
and laid out as pleasure
ground for their recreation and en•o ment. Powers are then
given to the Commissioners to inclose the Common, to plant
P a
it with trees, &c., and to stop u portion of the Brixton-
road, alter the Camberwell is,ew-roadand to substitute an-
other piece of road for the use of the public. The present
toll-houso may be purchased
by the Commissioners and re-
moved. The Common is to revert to the Duchy of Cornwall,
if not maintained as pleasure grounds for the recreation of
the public.—Sunday paper
_[,This
graceful act on the part
of the Prince of Wales being the first in which the name of
his Royal Highness has publicly appeared, it would be cor-
respondingly graceful on the part of the public, we conceive,
to commemorate the circumstance, either by associating his
name with the Common) or by erecting in the centre of it,
when transformed into a garden, a statue of the Sailor Prince
after the design of Winterhalter.—ED• Sun.]
