THE PAAKS.—So cheerless • as tile aspect of the
weather yesterday. and so repulsive tile tog with
which the metropolis was enveloded, that few of the
fashionable corps would venture t I the Parks in search
of the pleasure of the pmmenade....l pleasure, to the
absence of which an auntirable compensation was
found in the agreeable vivacity of biasing hrrs.--
A
new hardy beaux and liettes, however, were distin-
guishable in Hyde Park, and to these the usual mus-
ter of the canaille being added, the exhibition in point
of numbers was cOnsiderable. The ride WAs well .it -
tended, but the drive had to boast but of a meagtt.:
collection of voiligru.
