Patronage.—G. Isaacs, on behalf of M. Swallow, applied for the patronage of tho Council at his concert on October 25th.— Cr. Burns did not think any person had any right to ask for the Council's patronage unless the object was a charitable one.—The letter was ordered to be received.

_ Crossing ix Symonds-striiet.— H. Gil fillan, jun., Secretary of the Auckland Choral Society, wrote thanking the Council for resolving to kerb and channel the foot path to present level opposite Choral Hall, and asking thatonly one crossing bo formed, and that the Society be allowed to indicate the place.—lt was stated that the Council had previously decidedtofonn two crossings. —Agreed on division that the letter be re ferred to the Streets Committee, the amend ment, which was negatived, being that the request should be granted. * Lock Hospital. — G. S. Cooper wrote, forwarding from ■ Wellington copy of the " Gazette of the 11th instant containing a warrant under the hand of the Governor making regulations for tho Lock Hospital at Auckland.—Agreed that the letter be acknowledged.

Stiiekt Roller. — Letter from F. T. Knight, stating that he, had forwarded an order by the last outgoing 'Frisco mail for tlio steam road roller for the Council.— Agreed that the letter be acknowledged.

Advertising Board. — Letter from H. Brett asking permission to erect a boarding on Mr Harbutt's corner in Victoria-street East.—The request was granted, subject to the usual conditions.

Road Metal.—The Chairman of the Newton Koad Board wrote thanking the Council for a grant of road metal, and in structing that as it is not convenient to supply the metal at present, they would be prepared to take tho amount in cash, as they could purchase good rough material at Gaol, and reduce it to proper size after wards.—Agreed that £50 bo granted, to be expended in metal, to be laid under the supervision of the Inspector of Abbatoirs. Main Sewee.—The Secretary of the Harbour Board forwarded copy of resolu tion carried at the last meeting of that body as follows:—"That the foreshore at the mouth «f the main sewer has been leased to the New Zealand Frozen Meat and Storage Company, and the Council be requested to make provision with the Company for the extension of the main gewer through the land leased to the Company.—Referred to the Legal Committee. Emily Place Works.—The Secretary of the Harbour Board forwarded the following copy of a resolution on this subject, car ried at the last meeting of that body :— " That, pending the request of further in formation in regard to quantity of material to bo removed, and probable cost of same, this Board cannot recommend any further action to be taken."—Referred to the Finance Committee.

PLANB.—G. S. Maclaurin submitted plane of proposed house for approval.—The plans were approved. Wellington-street.—J. M. Alexander, on behalf of James Lyle, pointed out that the Wellington-street property was ap proaching Mr Lyls's property, and asking that Mr Lylo be allowed to state his case to the Council.—The application was granted, and tho Engineer having been called in, Mr Lyle said that 10 years ago he intended to erect buildings or buy his present place. He applied to Mr Burrows to prepare plans, and the present levels were given to him by tho City Engineer as the permanent levels. He had an expensive oven built on tho present lovels, and £200 expended on improvements. He took the levels given him in good faith, believing them to bo the permanent ones, and de pending on them ho had these improve ments carried out. Although he had not seen Mr Burrows for ten years, he recontly waited upon him, when that gentleman said tho levels were given in good faith, and were acted upon in good faith. He had three other places besides tho brkery that would be affected to the extent of sft., while the bakery would bo 4ft. Gin. He did not wish to hinder the works in tho street, but having been misled, he thought the Council should placo the bakehouse to tho street levels. If this were done, ho would placo the other thrco places to the level himself. Ho onposed tho levels four years ago, when Mr Brett was Mayor.—Tho whole matter was referred to the Legal Committee. Wateu Mains.—Cr. Field presented a petition from property-holders in Bayfield, complaining that, although the water rate had been levied in the whole of the new wards, no provision had been made for carrying tho mains along Jorvois Road, late Ponsonby Road, further than Wallace street.—Rocoived and referred to Streets Committee.

Burlewu-street. —The residents of this thoroughfare forward edapetitionaskingthat the street be cut down as previously decided, notwithstanding the adverse petition against it,—Received and referred to the Streets Committee.

Legal Committee.—This Committe re commended : (1) Memo, from Town Clerk re Adulteration Act, 1880: That for the preeont Mr E. Woolfield bo appointed. (2) Letter- from the Chairman of City Schools Committee re fence in Beresford -Btreet: That work be done as reported by City Engineer, at a cost of £ 3, viz., that 22 feet of fencing be erected between the school fence and fence on embankment of road. (3) Legal Committee report No. 0,066: Consideration of clauses 8, 10, and 11 be deferred for further information. (4) Memo, from Librarian ro Melbourne and Dunedin daily papers: That the Melbourne "Age " and Otago ''Daily Times" be authorised to be supplied. (5) Report from Park gardener re donations to Park: That thanks be forwarded to the gentlemen who have 'givon donations of plants to Park,— The report was adopted without amend ment.

Streets Committee.—Cr. Burns drew attention to the fact that there was no report from the Streets Committee, all attempts to secure quorums having failed. Seafield View.—The residents of Sea field View forwarded a petition, signed only by Mr Hall, objecting to the raising of the street one foot. The petition being in formal, was ordered to be returned.

Photest.—On the question of passing the accounts, Cr. Devore handed in the follow ing protest:—l protest against the payment of the sum .of £3,800 to Messrs Hancock and Co., and the sum of £1,350 to Mr Lally, as purchase monoys for the site of tho Town Hall, on tho ground that the Council, in paying thoao sums for the purposes men tioned, exceeds its powers, and is a mis appropriation of moneys.—Cr. Crowther objected to payments for articles such as fire-screons, photos taken in the Park, and other things, which he described as luxuries. He said £7,000 odd had to bo provided next month for loan, and they would then be £16,000 odd behind.—On tho motion of Cr. Crowther, it was decided to refer to the Logal Committee the question whothor the sum of £14,000 should be transferred to tho current account for a period. Cheques.—Cr. Waddel was appointed to sign cheques with the Mayor. - verandahs.—Cr. Garratt again drew attention to an accident from dangerous verandahs, and asked if any steps had been taken to prevent them.—The Acting-Mayor said the regulations, which came into force at the beginning of this month, had been advertised.

Building Regulations.—Cr. Montague said his attention had been called to-day to a building in course of erection which was not in accordance with the regulations, and for which a permit had been granted.— The Building Surveyor was called in, and Cr. Montague asked him if he had granted a permit for a building, viz., Foster's boot factory in Rutland-street.— The Surveyor replied in the affirmative, and, in response to other questions, the Surveyor said the height of the building might be 37 feet and the length of the building 53 feet. He con sidered that the building came under the heading of a "dwelling-house class."— Cr. Montague took exception to the state ment, The building, be aaid, ia the opinion

of competent architects, was not stron enough to carry the roof. He wished to know if the building now in course of erec tion was considered' sufficiently strong to ■ carry the slate roof.—The Surveyor replied in the affirmative. He classed the building as " a shop " himself.—Cr. Montague said it was plain that the Surveyor was not con versant with the by-laws.—Cr. Harper re ferred to a building site opposite the Choral Hall upon which it was proposed to build, and permission was asked-to build of wood, with slate roof. The permit was refused, and yet thero was a building (Hewin's) in Wellesley-street (in the same locality) built of wood, with slate roof.—The Town Clerk stated that the latter was erected in terms of the lease. Cr. Crowther eaid the permit of the Improve ment Commission referred to had expired before Hewin's building was erected. Re ferring again to Foster's boot factory, the Surveyor stated that he granted the permit because he was compelled to do so. (Cr. Burns: By whom ?) His judgment had been overruled by the Mayor and City Engineer with respect to the thickness of the walls —• Cr. Garratt asked the Surveyor whether he was aware of the regulation relating to verandahs brought into force on the Ist of October, what stops he had taken to carry out the instructions of tho Council, and v nothing had been done, why not? The Surveyor explained that he had been pre vented from attending to tho matter through press of business. Ho had sent a memo, to the Town Clerk stating that as soon as possible he would inspect and report on verandahs.—The standing orders "having: been suspended, Cr. Thompson moved "That the Streets Committee report on the method in which the Surveyor has been carrying out tho building regulations."— The motion was duly seconded and carried.. Licensing.—A vote of £30 to Mr J, B, Stoney for services as clerk to the Licensing Committee during the year was passed. Tramways.—ln reply to Cr. Montague, the Engineer said the plans for the levels of Karangahape Road and two sections of Symonds-street would bo readyimmediately. —Cr. Montague added that nearly all tho tramway plant had arrived. Grey-street. — The Engineer reported the cost of works providing a continuous grade at £13,000, while tho cost of a modi fied proposal for Grey and Cook-streets wag ordered to be considered that day sir months.

Levels.—Several persons were heard in reference to the proposed levels of Severn, Nugent, Auburn, and Burleigh streets, and Mount Eden Road.—The question of these levels was eventually deferred till the Kyber Pass levels come up. This concluded the business.

Pro Bono Publico.

(To the Editor.) . \-f Sib, —Under favour of your valuable paper, ; I am desirous of bringing under notice the action of the Point Chevalier Road Btard I re the closing of a road in that district. . The closing of this road, as explained by its .''"■ advocates, is simply a matter of justice to I Mr Win. Motion, and they contend will notin I any way be a loss to the district. If such I were really the case, I would most I heartily say Amen. To my mind, .■■'' there is another view to be taken of it» I viz:—lf the road remains as it now is, .1 there will be no injury done to Mr Motion a or his property, as he will still have all the land for which he has paid. He will not, aa is II endeavoured to be shown, lose one inch of t> road frontage, as the road might to be > closed runs almost parallel wifn the one to 19 be retained; in fact, it intersects it except : I at one point about three chains below I Mr Edgecombe's house on the road from the tallow factory, where the old road, I as it is termed, diverges slightly to the left,- 9 coming Out again on the present road, directly opposite to that which leads to Mount Albert, thereby leaving an angular piece of ground between the two roads of - about an acre in extent. This piece of ' - ground is the mainspring of the whole move- I ment; it is not included in any deed or ■ grant, but is: simply a piece of spare or ■ waste land similar to those in various- >' parts of the city which the City H Fathers have enclosed and planted, < as, for instance, at the junction of Symonds and Wakefield-streets, Grey and: Upper Queen-streets, &c, with this excep- :':■ tion, that the lot in question is entirely. | surrounded by roads a chain in width.: .' Now, Mr Editor, if the road in ques- ■ tion be declared closed by the Road as Board it immediately becomes waste | land, and according to the provisions of ■ the Public Works Act no one- can purchase it but Mr Motion in consequence of its peculiar situation, and along vith ■■ it must go the triangular lot to which I have alluded. As well might Mr Edgecombe move for the closing of that portion of road lying between his property and the coveted triangle, and with equal . justice. Sir, I think if the local Board will leave the roads as they now are, and ;; itself apply to the Land Board on behalf of the district that this lot bo set apart for. 1 district purposes, such as a site for a school I or any of the numerous requirements which I rapidly-growing localities as this feel, it ';.'•' will injure no one and confer an " ever- ;.; lasting benefit on unborn millions," as I the great Pro Consul puts it. I have I addressed myself through you to those f;: afflicted because "the powers that be "in I the district, amongst whom, Mr Motion, the person solely to be benefitted, is the leading spirit at present, were careful that persons 1 likely to oppose the scheme and who were | capable of explaining its details to rate- | payers at the meeting called to consider the I matter, were debarred that opportunity; I but of this and the other gross irregularities which characterised the whole proceedings, more anon. I have simply endeavoured to 9 show that this valuable piece of ground, in a rapidly advancing district, may, without I injury to anyone, be obtained for the public 1 benelit; and if speedy action bo not takeni will, through the want of forethought of ; : the trustees of the district, be sacrificed 1 to a private individual.—Apologising iw.v troubling you, I am, &c,
