The fourth meeting this week on the Sunday Music question

was held yesterday, in St. Martin's Hall ; Sir John Shelley in the chair. The hall was crowded, and several ladies sat in the galleries. Among the speakers were the Chairman, the veteran Sir De Lacy Evans, Mr. Wil- kinson M.P., and Sir Joshua Wahnsley. The meeting accepted with alacrity all the propositions approving of Sunday music ; they would not hear an opponent. The Chairman expressed a hope and a prophecy that may seem indiscreet- He hoped people would assemble in the different Parks on Sunday, with the determination to be orderly and peaceable ; and he believed that if they went with that determination, he might say they would have the bands playing on Sunday in Hyde Park, Victoria Park, and Regent's Park.
