BURNING THE PARK RAILING.

We. are sorry to state, that at ten o'clock last
night a mob collected in the Green Park, com-
posed, perhaps, of all the disorderly characters in
London. Acting in the spirit of mischief; they
pulled down the fence outside 'the Temple inclo-
sure, and made a bonfire., In consequence:of the
immense number of person collected, the sen-
tries found it imposssible to oppose their de=
predations. It was not deemed neceiSary to re:-
•Sort to a proper force in order to compel them to
desist, as in all probability many with their lives
would have paid for their imiscondect, had they
been treated us rioters: Finding a forbear-
ance, they went on with impunity, and piled up
the railings until a volume of flame arose, which
alarmed the metropolis at its eastern extremity.
Many supposed a ntrnber of houses were on fire,
and the engines drove, through the Park, under a
belief that St. James's Palace was in flames.- ,The
multitude, with a disregard of propriety, proCeed-
ed until they had burnt nearly. all !lie fences';
sentry boxes and blanches Of trees were thrown
into the flames, and considerable apprehensions
were entertained for the fate of the Templet ‘vhieh
was menaced, with the other range of build nt
bearing the nameoithe;llilitary Q dices . The Tem pie
remained safe, surrounded by seatintis:and the
mischief done does not extend beyond the destruc-
tion of the timber which formed the rit.lway. The
mob left the Park when daylight appeared. Se-
venal are in custody. ,
