THE WEATHER AND THE PARKS.--The various

in a very bad and insecure state. On the Serpentine and-
the waters in the Regent's-park and Kensington-gardens
several hundred persons for some hours amused themselves
with skating and sliding, but towards the afternoon the ice
became ao sloppy and dangerous that they were compelled
to desist. There were several immersions and narrow
escapes during the day, but no accident of a fatal nature,

and of these many received a good ducking.
