TEE NEW MEAT MARKET.

At a meeting of the Court of Common Council
yesterday,
Hr. H. L TATLOR, the chairman of the Market. Improve-
ment Committee, brought up a report in reference to the
Metropolitan Meat Market and Newgate Market, which
stated that the committee congratulated the mart upon the
fact that the differences that had existed between the cor-
poration, the Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's, and the
salesmea and conies of property in Newgate Market, had
all beau amicably settled, and that the bill for erecting the
new market bad passed both houses of whiteout, and was
now only awaiting the royal went to become law. The re-
port also stated that a clause bad been inserted in the bill
authorising the raising of the rate of toll from 2a. 24d. to
3a. 4d. per ton, if, after a period of five you% It could be
made out to the satisfaction of the Secretary of State that
the lower rate of toll was not sufficient to compeneate the
corporation for the amount of money invested and thee:-
pelves incurred in the erection of the new market. It also
appeared that the committee had boon in communication
with the different railway companies, proposing to have
stations in the neighbourhood of Farringdon and Victoria-
streets, and also with the improvement committee and the
government, in reference to the projected street, sixty feet
wide, to lead front the new market into Victorin-street,
with a view, if possible, to alter the present dangerous
declivity of Holborn-bill, and although nothing definitive
bad yet been accomplished, it was hoped that this im-
portant object would ultimately be effected, and in the
meantime the committee suggested that the court should
still leave the matter in their hands.
