§ LORD ALGERNON PERCYasked the First Commissioner of Works, Whether his attention has been called to the state of the footpaths in Hyde Park owing to the bad gravel with which they have lately been covered; and, whether he will take any steps to have them improved and laid down with the shell sand hitherto employed?
§ MR. SHAW LEFEVRE, in reply, said, that the gravel laid down was exactly the same as that which had been laid down in previous years, but that, owing to the wet season, it had not hardened this winter.
