Strong as have been the claim; of this-favoured place of public

in asserting, that never before did it offer a tithe of the attractions

Statues and Fountains introduced, new and extensive Promenades
ti tined, and the most lavish expenditure in every department,
will evince the Proprietor's anxiety to insure a continuance of public
Patronage.
