BROOK GREEN FAIR.

The resolution come to by the Magistrotes
who assembled at llamersmith, after having heard the case
of the inhabitants, &c. to put down Brook Green Fair, pur-
suant to the power vested in them by the new Police Act, ex.
cited, as might be expected, no ordinary degree of sensation
in those itinerants, &c. who were likely to suffer by the sup-
pression of what was represented to have been a dangerous nut.
sance. Every persuasive art having been exhausted, threats
were resorted to ; and many went so far as to declare, that " if
they had not a fair, they would have a good fire," mean.
ink, that some of the residences at Brook Green should
suffer. Those threats, however, had the contrary eftl.ct
of what was desired; for the inhabitants, &c. &c. who
were anxious to put an end to such desperate scenes as have
taken place at West End and Stepney, were still desirous that
the complainants should have every opportunity of their case
being heard. The Magistrates who assembled at the Palace-
Tavern, Kensington, on Tuesday, on district business, recon-
sidered the case ; but after tke amplest consideration, they de-
cided against the continuance of Brook Green Pair.--.A resident,
and one who had let portions of ground, expressed his willing-
ness to guarantee the inhabitants against injuries ; but such
proffer was not considered as affecting the principle on which
the decision was pronounced.
