Major LYON moved the adoption of the following re gulations with respect to the width of streets and alleys, explaining that his object in doing so was that persons engaged in building trades in the various parts of the metropolis might not commence or carry on building operations in defiance of those sanitary considerations and rules for the public convenience which it would be incumbent on the board to lay down when it got into working order : " That every street, excepting any mews , must be of the width of 40ft. at the !east ; but if the buildings fronting any street be more than 40ft. high from the level of the street, then such street mu!t be of a width equal at least to the height of the buildings above such level. That every alley and every mews must be of the width of 20ft. at the last, but if the buildings fronting any alley or any mews be more than 20ft. high from the level of the alley or mews, then such alley or mews must be of a width equal at the least to the height of the buildings above such level. And with regard to every a ich alley in reference to the entrance thereof, every alley must have two entrances thereto, each being at the least the full width of the alley, and one of the two at the least open from the ground upwards. And with re gard to both such streets and alleys, the aforesaid width is to be ascertained by measuring (at right angles to the course thereof) from front to front of the buildings on eaeh side of such street or alley. The word street' to i- elude every square, circus, crescent, street, road, place, row, mews. lane, or place where carriages can pass, or are intended to pass, and that whether there be or be not, in addition to the carriage-way, a footway paced or otherwise. The word alley' to include any court, alley, passage, or other public place which can be used as a footway only. If any person offend in respect of the conditions, regulations, and directions contained in this byelaw be shall be liable for all the penalties and forfeitures imposed by the Metropolis Building Act, 1855, 18th and 19th Vic., c. 122, in respect of any build ings either built contrary to the provisions of the said act, or without due notice to the surveyor appointed in pursuance of that act to inspect such buildings." The motion was agreed to, after being seconded by Mr. HUNT, who said he felt convinced that unless such regulations were laid down immediately by the board great mischief would be done. On the motion of Mr. BURSLEN, which gave rise to a short discussion, it was ordered that the resolution of Major Lyon be communicated to all the district sur veyors with the view to give it as much efficiency as possible.

Mr. HALL, pursuant to notice, moved, "That it be a by-law, or standing order, that no member shall be eligible for any office of emolument in the gift of the board." He was proceeding to state the grounds on which be made the motion, when The PRESIDENT suggested that it would be more con venient if be would refer the question to the committee on by-laws, where he would raise it in such a manner as would be consistent with the act of Parliament, and best accomplish the object he bad in view. The suggestion - of the president was speed to, and the meeting adjourned to Friday next at 12 o'clock. THE CASK OF Da. VAUGHAN.—It will be recollected that in this case the defendant obtained ex parte a writ of certiorari, from Mr. Justice Crompton, removing the indictment and proceedings from the Central Criminal Court trto the Queen's Bench. An application was then made to Mr. Baron Platt to rescind that order, and that a writ of procedendo should issue to remove the proceedings back, but the learned judge, although ho expressed himself strongly, declined to interfere with Mr. Justice Crompton's order, leaving the parties to apply to the full mum. Since then a notice has been ftrverl upon the defendant's solicitors, that application will be made for a rule absolute in the first instance, for the issuing of the writ of procedendo, and which op plieation was fixed for to-day. On Thursday the Attorney-General, Mr. Ballantine, and Mr. Prideaux, the counsel retained for Dr. Vaughan, held a consulta tion at Westminster Hall, on the subject of appearing and opposing the rule, they contending it is a proper case to be heard ou the ,Crown side of the Queen's Bench. Mr. Bodkin and • Mr. Clarkson will support the application for the rule. The case is one of much Ina portanze. SCOTCII FOXHOUNDS. Lanarkshire and Ren- 10 45 frewshire ... ... 'rues'.

(Before Mr. Mr. Commissioner Evans.) IN RE STRAHAN, PAUL, AND BATES. A petition had been presented under this bankruptcy by the Rev. Henry Snow, of Bibury, in Gloucestershire (brother of Mr. Strahan), praying to be declared entitled as trustee under the will of the late Mrs. Snow, to 500 Sambre and Meuse iron shares, which, at the time of the bankruptcy, were held by his brother, Mr. Strahan co•trustee), and were deposited in the bank in a wrapper labelled with the names of the trustees. The property being in the order and disposition of the bankrupts, had of course been taken possession of by the assignees ; and the question arose whether there bad been such an appro piiation of the shares as to render them the property of the trustees. To-day was appointed for taking evidence on this point. _ Mr. Hannan appeared for the assignees, and Mr. Bag ley for the claimant. Wm, Strahan, one of the bankrupts, who had been brought up from prison, deposed—l and my brother, the Rev. H. Snow, were appointed by my mother executors of her will, and trustees under it. She bequeathed 10,2951. in the Three-per-Cent. Consols in trust to my brother, Henry Snow, and myself, for Robert Snow and his children. The proceeds of her property were invested in the purchase of Consols to that amount. Some time after her death in March, 1849, we sold out that stock, and lent out the proceeds to Strahan, Paul, and Bates. The books will show when that took place. It was before the death of the late Sir J. Paut, which took place in 1851. It was done in order to give my brother 4 per cent. instead of the interest on Consols. Two policies on the life of the late Sir J. Paul were given as security. On his death the hank received the proceeds of those two policies, and I gave some other securities instead. There are regular en:ries of the transactions in the books, but not of the receipts of the proceeds of the policies. I transacted the business entirely connected with my mother's will. My brother Henry must have signed the authority for the sale of the stock ; but he ha-i taken no subsequent part in the transactions. An entry in the etoek-book of "509 Sambre and Meuse iron Awes given in exchange for the policies," was made by me in April, 1855. I had the shares at the bank at the time, wrapped it a paper. At the same time I wrote on the wrapper, "—and Henry Snow, trustees," and added 100 shares to the 409 already in the packet. This must have been done either at, the time or shortly before, as I had net had the shares,very long. About the 2d or 3d of April, having taken fright about the state of the bank, I went out and bought a note of band, dated it back for the pre vious September, and deposited it with the shares. The shares at that time were of inure value than they are now ; and I might have made use of them 1.. r the bank at any time, if I had not put them by, and consi dered them as sacred. I had previously put by some Char leroi and Erqueilinos shares; but there is no entry in the books to show the appropriation of those shares. The entry referred to is the only one showing the appropriation of the Sambre and Meuse shares. I exchanged the Char leroi shares for the Sambre iron shares, but no money passed. I would not have raised money on them. I exchanged with Mr. Arnold, who was a director in both companies. The exchange must have been made two years ago. The let of September, 1854, the date of the note of hand, has no connection whatever with the date of these transactions. That date was merely put to conceal the real date of the transaction. It was on the Ist of January, 1854, that I exchanged the Charleroi for the Sambre shares. The stock, before it was sold out, stood in the name of William Strahan and Henry Snow. My brother joined with ire in the authority to sell. The proceeds were lent to the bank immediately, and an account was opened in our books as an ordinary bankino. account. I intimated to my brother at the time that there was security, and he has supposed so ever since, at least, I have never told him to the con trary. When the proceeds of th e p o li c i es on Si r J. Paul's life were received they went into the bank, and paid off part of his debt to the bank. I immediately substituted the Charleroi shares as security, but I did not mention this to my brother, nor the exchange of the Charleroi for the Sambre shares, I men tioned it to my partners, but not to my brother. I might have raised money on these shares at any time, but that I conioered them sacred as security. I cannot say when I put - tits additional 100 shares into the paper. Some further evidence was taken, and the question will be argued on a future day. There was a second petition by the same gentleman re lating to 500 Namur Railway Shares, which were said to have been appropriated by Mr. Strahan as security for 3,0001. bank annuities which had been bequeathed by the late Mr. Robt. Snow, of Chesterfield-street, Pim lico, to his brothers, the Rev. Henry Show and Mr. Strahan, in trust for ',ho henefit of the testator's son, Mr. Wm. Roger Snow, who attained his majority in Feb. last. In this case also the stock in question had been sold by Mr. Strahan, and the proceeds lent to the bank, 500 Namur Railway Shares being put aside as security. After bearing Mr. Bagley and Mr. Hannan, his Honour deferred his judgment till Thursday next. RAILWAY TRAFFIC RETURN& TRXFFIC RETURNS FOR THE WEEK.

We have again this week to report the total suspension of business in the sugar market—making it now ten week. without a single transaction being recorded here in any de• scription of raw sugar—an event unprecedented in the memory cf the oldest member of the trade. The oil/ effect here at present of the news from Vienna has been to cause rather more inquiry, but which, as yet, has not re' suited in business. Refiners' produce is equally difficultte move, and some manufacturers have not made a sale of eel sort for more than two months. Rum in limited supply but prices have a downward tendency.
