into effect the Act of Parliament,delay in carrying
in-
tended park has become th the site of the e
resort of the dissolute
and depraved of the
metropolis, and particularly on
Sundays ; that the population
of the district has gone
on increasing, and ac
cording to the estimate of the
R-gistrar-Gene Ira , was computed in June last
585 047
, inhabitants, a large proportion of whom are
of the labouring classes, and are deprived of the
means of healthful recreation, as afforded to the same
classes in other parts of the metropolis, by the vari-
ous public parks in their localities, and that the un-
looked-flr delay in carrying into effect her Majesty
and the Parliament's graci,:us intention, demands on
the part of the inhabitants, some expression of their
diappointment, and should induce their exertions to
urge the Government and the Commissioners to adopt
more active proceedings, and commence such object
forthwith."
Mr. PHILLIPS seconded the resolution.
Other resolutions in accordance with the objects of
the meeting were put and carried, after which the
meeting separated.
