A special general meeting of the proprietors of this railway was held yesterday at the company's offices in the Waterloo-bridge station, for the consideration of a bill now pending in Parliament for authorising the erection of works by the company for regulating their capital and for other purposes ; and also for the election of a director, in the room of Lieutenant-Colonel George Henderson, deceased ; Mr. Chaplin in the chair. The report of the directors published in The Sun of Saturday having been read by the secretary, and the heads of the bill and clauses by the solicitor, The CHAIRMAN said that having on two recent occa sions met them and entered into the details and history of these proceedings, and they had - having a copy of the bill and the report, which gave them every information up to the present time, he had but little to say to them. After alluding to his presiding over a di- . vided proprietary which was not satisfactory to en sure success, and to some of the proprietors pabiishing letters which tended to depreciate the value of the property, otherwise than improve it, remarked' that so far from the dividends of the company being " confiscated," they had only got so far as to their being " suspended" only in the event of certain things not being done in accordance with a pledge given with the consent of certain of the proprietors. He thought they were all agreed on the prin ciple of the bill, except the clauses which affected the pledge, as being satisfactory and useful, especially the alteration of voting on the preference shares stock, the consolidation of it, and asking for fur ther time to complete the Salisbury and Basingstoke Railway, in order to prevent the risk of stopping the dividend in 1856. He regretted the recommendation of the Directors, with reference to the exten sion of the line to Exeter, had not met with the approbation of the proprietors, which was the only satisfactory mode of closing the business thrust on them by the House of Commons, after two meetings of the proprietary authorising thedirectors to do that which was for the benefit of the company. (No, no.) He hoped the company would sanction this proceeding, which , aasto be justified as a commercial speculation, but taking it on higher grounds, as a point of honour they were bound to carry it on. The public jocularly said that the directors must get purged of their pledge, because, until that be done, they were unfit to continue in their position. There was but one way it could be done. All must admit that the pledge was duly authorised and given—(" No, no," and "Yes, yes,")—and accepted by the directors, and for which the company had had a quid pro quo ; and, lastly, the directors had declined to attend to that promise. That pro mise had again, ,however, been renewed by the House of Commons, and he acquitted the sharehold ers or any one connected with the company of being in strumental in having the clauses inserted in the bill, which, however, would be the only means of extricating themselves from their difficulty. He called on them to go boldly forward in this undertaking, which would be beneficial to the shareholders, and moved the adoption of the report. Count EYRE seconded the motion. Mr. HELPS, after relating what occurred in reference to this pledge, contended that it was only obtained for a single line, and not for a double line, as stated by Mr. Scott, and that the pledge given was a totally different one to that authorised by the proprietors, involving a cost of 1,100,0001. instead of 700,0001., and had no bind ing force whatever on them. Mr. Scott before the Com mittee of the House of Commons stated that the proxies sent in against this pledge amounted to 252, and the number who voted against it in the room from eight to ten, representing 600,0001. of the com pany's stock, by no means an insignificant amount, and whose opinion he (Mr. Helps) considered worthy of re spect. The Legislature had released them from this pledge in having granted to a broad gauge company a bill to construct a line from Maiden-Newton to Brid port, which would interfere with this contemplated ex tension ; and he contended if it were carried out it would result in a losing speculation, which the Legislature had no right to force on them. He moved "That the meeting called in accordance with the standing orders of the House of Lords, does not approve of the bill submitted to the proprietors." hands being in its favour, on which a poll was also de• manded. The CHAIRMAN announced the poll would continue open till Tuesday, at 12 o'clock, and the result be de clared on Wednesday, at two o'clock.

The pressure on our space at the time the discussion took place on the East Kent Railway Bill prevented our then giving more than a very brief notice of it. As the decision at which the House of Commons arrived abrogates the recommendation of Mr. Henley's commit tee of 1853, over which Mr. Card well subsequently pre sided, and also the standing order of the house requir ing a deposit of 10 per cent. of the capital of projected railways to be paid into the Court of Chancery, and to remain there until half the capital has been paid up and expended, by releasing, in the case of the East Kent Railway the impounded 10 pet' cent. without the usual condition having been fulfilled, we think the question of sufficient importance to the railway interest to take the first opportunity to publish the debate at length : On the motion for the third reading of this bill, Mr. JAMES MACGREGOR said—Sir, I rise to move that the third reading of this bill be postponed until Mon day the 4th day of June next; that the minutes of the evi dence taken before the committee on the bill be laid before this house ; and that the said evidence be printed at the expense of the parties. If the hou. gentleman who has brought forward the bill is willing that the third reading should be postponed until the 4th of June, and that the evidence should be printed, .I shall not, of course, occupy the time of the house by going into a statement at the pre- sent moment. Well, sir, as he is not, I must proceed testate the reasons which have induced me to propose the motion which I have just submitted to the house. I have to state, at the outset, that the report of the select committee on the bill was not published at Vezi time when the bill was considered and ordered to be read a third time, or I should then have called the attention of the house to the subject. I took the usual steps to obtain a perusal of that report. I went to the Private Bill Office, and to the office of the right hon. gentleman the chairman of committees, and was there informed that the report had gone to the printer, and that copies of it would be circulated in the usual manner. The report, however, was not circulated until after the bill had been considered and ordered to be read a third time. When it was circulated I found that the select committee on the bill had made a spe cial report to the house, recommending that " under the peculiar circumstances of the case" the 136th standing order should be repealed, so far as the East Kent Railway Bill was concerned. The committee added that they had been led to that decision, "by the conviction of the para mount necessity, in a national point of view, of continuous railway communication between the metropolis, Deptford, and Woolwich, and the dockyard and arsenals at Chat ham ;" and that they had restricted the application of the money impounded under the standing order to the construe • tion of a bridge over the Medway, at Rochester. Sir, this is not the first time that we have heard of the importance of continuous railway communication between the metro polis and,the dockyards and arsenals on the Thames and at Chatham. The very able report on Kentish schemes of railway, published by the Marquis of Dalhousie, in 1845, set forth the importance of such a communication in un mistakeable terms. It showed to demonstration that it would be highly conducive to the national interests if a continuous line of railway were constructed between the metropolis and the dockyards and arsenals on the Thames and at Chatham ; but it recommended, at the same time, that the working of the line should be entrusted to the South-Eastern Company, which in 1845 had already expended several millions of meney in the constru , tion of railways in Kent. Sir, that company proceeded bona fide to endeavour to obtain. powers from Parliament for that purpose. In 1846 their bill was thrown out upon the standing orders, but in 1847 it passed this house, and was reed the second time in the House of Lords. At that stage, however, chiefly through the exertions of the hon. member for Dover, backed by the great influence of the late Duke of Wellington, the bill was referred to the railway commissioners, and it remained so long in their hands, and there was so evident a desire on the part of its oppoaeuts to have the bill rejected, that the promoters thought it necessary, in order not to be killed by time, to take advantage of the standing orders and have the bill suspended till the follo wing year. Sir, in the following year (1848), the state of the money market was such as to make it utterly impossible to proceed with the scheme, and the same cause has since prevented the company from going on with the works, but they have never denied either their intention or will ingness to complete them. In the report published by the Marquis of Dalhouse in 1845, it was stated that the South- Eastern Company, besides completing the railway in North Kent, would also, for the public interests and without the prospect of remuneration, construct a line from Hastings to Ashford, and complete the communication to Deal—the very lines which, according to the Duke of Wellington, were of so much importance with regard to the national defences. Moreover, the company offered to pledge the whole revenue of their existing line for the completion of all cross-lines undertaken by them within' a reasonable period. They did complete those railways, with the fact before them that they would prove unremunerative, and fail to yield a dividend to the shareholders. But, sir, not content with that, the impatience of the gentlemen of Kent, in the face of difficulties, which had prevented a great and wealthy company like the South-Eastern from embarking in such an outlay as would have been,requisite for the entire completion of the Kentish Railway scheme, induced them in 1853 to apply for an act for the construction of the railway now under consideration. They precipitatelyundertook the formation of the company now called the East Kent Railway company. I corresponded on the subject with certain noble lords and right hon. gen ' tlemen connected with the county of Kent, indicated the error into which they had fallen, and pointed, out the diffi culties in which they would place themselves ; but, not withstanding that warning, those noble lords, righ hon ourable gentlemen, aldermen of the city of London, and other dignified persons undertook the construction of the East Kent line, and the result is now before the house. It was obvious at the time that they commenced the pro ject with insufficient means, and that they could never hope to accomplish what the South-Eastern Company, in conse quence of the state of the money-market, had been unable to effect. What, sir, do we say now? Why, only two years after the passing of their act, the East Kent Company con fess that they have not complied with one of its conditions, and ask the house for the release of their deposit money and other unheard-of privileges. Their bill is read a second time, and referred to a select committee. That committee reports in favour of the bill, and authorises the liberation of the money deposited with the Court of Chancery and the con sequent abrogation of the stanting order, which impounds 10 per cent. of the capital of a projected railway as a gua rantee for the bona fides of the undertaking and of its pro moters. But it also appears that the Government itself has lent its influence to obtain the infraction of the stand ing order. The Admiralty has made a report, expressing a wish for the completion of the bridge over the Medway, 'at Rochester, and recommending the house to realise the 50,5501. deposited with the Court of Chancery, and to al low it to be applied to the construction of the bridge in question. Now, sir, what I maintain is this—that if it be necessary for the Government to assist in the completion of the East Kent Railway for national purposes, the proper company for them to negotiate with is the South-Eastern Railway Company, which has expended no less a sum than 12,000,0001. in the construction of unremunerative lines in the district. As an independent member of this house, no longer connected with the South-Eastern Com pany, having only the interests of the public in view, I -:ay that the conduct of the Government in dealing with a company in such a state of embarrassment that it has not been able to comply with one condition of its act, is neither wise nor politic; and I contend that in a matter of such great national importance, if the Government is to negotiate at all, it should negotiate with a c9mixlay whose capital and resources are of such an extent as to afford the best security for the performance of its engagements. Sir, I do not wish to prejudge the case. All I want is, that the third reading of thehill should be delayed until the 4th of June, and that in the meantime the evidence taken before the select committee should be printed for the information of the house. I have no personal interest in the question. My sole object is to discharge what I believe to he a roablic duty, and having done that, I will leave the matter in the hands of the Lease. Mr. RICE—I can assure the hon. gentleman, who has re ferred to me as the member for Dover, that with regard to the principle of this bill I am not prepared either to affirm it or i ptherwise. lam in favour of the bill only in so far as it promotes a direct railway communication between London and Dover. The hon. gentleman has talked of the impatience of the gentlemen of Kent inducing them to come forward in 1853 with a line of their own. Now I have not a single share in that line, nor am I in any way connected with it. I have supported it e f s a step towards a direct line from the metropolis to Dover ; and, indeed, I have repeatedly told the promoters that, in my opinion, the line would be of no use unless it were carried on to Dover. The hon. gentleman has also spoken of the bona fide of the proceedings of the South-Eastern Company. Now, I recollect perfectly well that in 184.8 it was pro posed by an independent company to construct a line to Dover, and I have always regarded the rejection of that bill as a most unfortunate circumstance. It was thrown out at the insfance of the South-Eastern Company, who brought forward a rival project, which I .believe, however, they never had the slightest intention to carry into effect. Indeed. I have been told—but I cnnot vouch for the accuracy of the story—that after they succeeded in de feating the bill to which I have referred, they put the plans of their own scheme into the fire. I have no hostility to the South-Eastern Company. I wish them to afford every accommodation they can to the county of Kent, and hav ing spent so much money in the district—whether wisely or not is another question—l think it would be desirable to see the railway communication in their hands, provided they adopted a more direct line. I think they could con struct and manage it better than any other parties. But, in the absence of any such scheme, I am prepared to sup port the East Kent line on public grounds, with the under standing that it is to be carried on to Dover. Mr. LIISHINGTON—As the member who has charge of the East Kent bill in this house, and as one of the repre sentatives of Canterbury, I wish to say a few words on the motion of the hon. member for Sandwich . The question which the hon. member has introduced is so full of details, and .has been so often brought before the house, that I do not think it necessary to go into it at any length ; and really if 1 were to enter minutely into the opposition which the South-Eastern Company has on all occasio ns given to schemes for the extensio n of railway communica tion in Kent, I should wea r y the house with details which are now of little interest. lam g lad to hear that the hon. gentleman is no longer connected with the South-Eastern Company, because I.hope there will now be some ch ance of his opposition ceasing, for so long as he was chairman of that company be never lost an opportunity of opposing, by every means in his power, any bill which had for its object the extension of rail way communication in Kent. When the East Kent bill was carried through this house in 1853 the hon. gentlem an, who was then chairman of the South-Eastern Company, through his agents, raised no fewer than 1,000 objections on the question of the standing orders ; and as the line was only 30 miledin length, there were upwards of 33 objections per mile, all of them of a technical, and some of them, I will venture to say, of a trivial nature. Now, when the hen. gentleman comes down here to say, that in opposing the passing of this bill he had no other than a public ()Wed in view, I am obliged to look at his antecedents, and at his past connection with railways in Kent. I believe it is well known that he has uniformly opposed the contem plated extension, and when he states that the South-East ern Company has pledged itself to complete the • railway DERBY SMITHFIELD.-MAT 29.

Mr. DICKENSON seconded the amendment. He had always been against Western extension, and at the former meetings he opposed it as strenuously as possible; and one of his undertakings was to defeat this project, for he cared nothing about the pledge, having been no party to it. He deprecated a committee of the House of Commons having power to compel that company to embark in what must be a losing speculation. With regard to the petitions that had been presented in favour of, the extension, he found that Exeter contained but 32,000 inhabitants, and already had a railway with which it ought to be satisfied, and that the other towns on the line did not number much more than 20,000 inhabitants. There was nothing in the district to justify such an outlay, and he saw no reason why they should make a railroad for the conve. nience of landed proprietors. If theynonsented to the construction of a single line, they would be called on to make it a double one, and so far from the traffic be low Exeter coming' on it, they should recollect the South Devon Railway was a broad gauge line. • Mr. ADDIRON said he was one who consented to the pledge. There had been a, total omission to the throwing out of the Devon and Dorset Bill, which at the time it was before Parliament was considered would be detri mental to the company, and that something should be done to get rid of it.

The Duke of Wellington took up the subject very warmly in 1811. He said the immense importance, in a national point of view, of the establishment of a continuous railway communication between the metropolis an t the dockyards and arsenals on the Thames and at Chatham, could not be ques tioned, and he proposed that the scheme of the South-Eastern Company, which was then before Par liament, should be referred to the railway commis sioners. Well, the commissioners made their report, and the Duke of Wellington was himself going down to the House of Lords to move the insertion of a clause compelling the South-Eastern Company to complete the railway communication in Kent, so as to secure the na tional objects which he had in view, when he discovered that the hone member for Sandwich and his friend, taking advantage of Lord Brougham's 'resolutions, passed in the preceding session, had suspended the bill till the following year. It was understood at that time that the bill was to be taken up at the same stage in the House of Lords in the session of 1848 ; but the hon. gentleman, from day to this has never re-introduced the measure. Under those cir cumstances the East Kent Company's bill was passed in 1853. That company has experienced great difficulties in the carrying out of its proje s t,and it now comes to Parlia ment to ask for the releas a o ithe money deposited in the Court of Chancery, in order to enable it to complete the construction of the bridge over the Medway at Rochester, which it was compelled to make within a certain time. The bill for that purpose was taken before the standing orders committee. It passed that committee. It was then referred to a select committee of this house, and that com mittee has reported as follows :—" That the committee, having allowed a relaxation of the 136th Standing Order, and permitted the money impounded under it to be applied to the construction of a bridge over the Medway and the approaches thereto, think it right to inform the house that they have been led to that decision by the conviction of the paramount necessity, in a national point of view, of conti nuous railway communication between the metropel:e, Deptford, and Woolwich and the dockyards and arsenals at Chatham—an opinion in which the committee are satis fied the Government entirely coincide. This continuous communication, it appeared to the committee, could only be obtained by the immediate completion of the bridge and its approaches, anti they have taken care to restrict the application of the deposit released by the bill to that specific purpose, the national importance of which in their opinion would alone justify them in sanctioning any departure from a standing order so well calculated to protect sound and necessary railway schemes, and to dis courage reckless and unnecessary railway speculation. That in the opinion of the committee, the -completion of the railway through its entire length will not be endangered by the release of the deposit." Now, if the hon. gentle man had merely the public interest at heart he should, on the select committee snaking their report on the 11th inst., have' come forward and moved that the evidence be printed; but on the 16th the bill as amended by the com mittee, was considered in this house, without any opposi tion whatever. Now, however, the hon. gentleman who at first intended merely to move, as appears from the votes that the evidence taken before the select committee should be printed, comes forward with an altered motion, to the effect that the third reading of the bill should be postponed till the 4th of June, which is, in fact, till after Whitsuntide. It is important that the house should' know that there is another bill coming . before the standing orders committee this day for an extension from Canterbury to Dovee ' and I have no doubt that the hon. gentleman thinks, if he can get the East Kent bill post poned till after Whitsuntide, it will be of some use to him in raising a further opposition to the Canterbury and Dover bill, which, I may add, has the vigorous support of all the Government departments—of the Ordnance and Admiralty —and of those who have the greatest interest in the esta blishment of a direct railway communication with Dover. I hope that the house, for the public reasons I have stated, will reject the motion of the hon. gentleman. Mr. H. AD AIR—As chairman of the select committee to whom the East Kent Bill was referred, I must trouble the house with a few observations. I think the motion of the hon. member for Sandwich is a very judicious andprudent one, because the house, before passing the bill, should have an opportunity of seeing the printed evidence. I am of that opinion, because the question now raised is every important one, and it is a question, moreover, which I think the house alone is able to decide. This is the first application that kas been made to suspend this poition of the standing orders of this house. The whole object of the bill is to release a sum of money which the House of Commons has judged it desirable should be held impounded to enforce the completion of a certain railway, the plans of which have been deposited in Parliament. Now, I think that id a question of such importance that the house ought to be called upon to express an opinion as to the circumstances under which such a deviation from the usual practice of the house should be allowed. The reason alleged to the committee why the bill should pass was that the East Kent line was of national importance, and one in which the Government had a great interest,. Why, it seems to me that this is an argument which many of the railway com panies may urge almost with the same effect as the East Kent Company. But I wish to call the attention of the house to another point. The object of the 136th standing order, if I understand it rightly, is to ensure to the public the completion of certain lines of railway. I have no doubt that the Government are very anxious that the bridge over the Medway at Rochester should .be con structed. I have not the slightest doubt that they wish their dockyards and arsenals to be brought into immediate communication with the metropolis; but still it was not shown to my satisfaction in the committee that the pro moters of this bill were unable to complete the bridge at Rochester without the assistance of the Government. -They have raised only an insignificant portion of the capital which they are authorised to raise under the provisions of the act of 1853 ; they have laid out little or no money upon the construction of the bridge at 'Rochester ; and I think it is for us to consider whether, under the circum stances, we should agree to the proposed deviation from the usual practice of this house, amounting, in fact, to the abrogation of a standinc , order„which heretofore has been found to work beneficially, and which I am quite sure has, at all events, prevented the passing of many crude and ill devised schemes of railway extension. I think, moreover, that the parties should not be called upon to pay for the print ing of the evidence, but that the expense should be borne by Parliament, and that the house should at once deal with the question, and for the guidance of its select committees, should lay down under what circumstance, if any, the 136th standing order should be dispensed with. I have thought it sight to make these few observations, as many members of the house are not quite aware of the actual facts of the case. I shall most undoubtedly support the proposition of the hon. member for Sandwich, with the view of bringing distinctly before the house the question of whether the 136th standing order shall be made practi cally-operative, or whether, under any circumstances, even when a scheme may be called by its promoters of great national interest, any deviation is to be. allowed. Mr. DEEDES.—As a member of the standing orders committee I think, after what has been said by the chairman of the select committee, I may be allowed to state that this question of the infraction of a standing order was brought under our notice; that we went fully into all the circumstances connected with the case; that there was a great deal of. discussion • and that we thought, under the peculiar circumstances of case, that we should recommend the house to dispense with the standing order. In consequence of that recommendation on the part of the standing orders committee, the house agreed to dispense with the 136th standing order in this instance. Now I admit that the question of interfering - with a stand ing order of this house ought always to be approached with considerable caution ; but, scoirg that the present case has been considered in all its bearings by the standing orders committee, and that that committee have come to decision upon it, I think the house ought not to interfere at this late stage of the bill. If the hon. member for Sandwich had brought forward his motion upon the report of the committe, then it would have been right and proper for the house to entertain it ; but the question has already been decided, and therefore I hope the house will reject the proposition of the hon. gentleman. Nor can . I agree with the hon. member in regard to the consideration which, he says, ought to be shown to the Snuth-Eastern Company. I have no hostility to that company, but I think they are hound to show that they are not to blame for the delay which has taken place iu the fulfilment of the pledges they have given with regard to railway accommodation. Mr. ADAIR—I rise merely for the purpose of disclaiming the slightest intention of treating the standing orders com mittee with any disrepect. What I meant to say was this, that the question is one of such impedance that the house itself should deal with it, and so relieve the standing orders committee from a responsibility which they ought not to be called upon to incur. Mr. Rica—l am anxious to make a few remarks on the subject before the house. It has been said that the hon. member for San iwich ought to have brought forward'his motion on an earlier day. Now, it must - be recollected that the report of the,select committee was not circulated until after the house had considered the bill and ordered it to be read a third time; and I presume it would hardly have been competent to move that the evidence be printed before the report itself. Therefore, that objeseition to the ground, I think the house will always listen: with great deference to any opinion expressed by the chairman' of a committee, who has had full opportunity of hearing the whole case. Well, the chairman of the committee en the East Kent bill has described the evidence which was laid before that committee, and has told you that a new rule is to be adopted in this case. lam sorry the right hon. gentleman the member for. Oxford is not in his place, for if he were here he would tell you.that the object of the stand ing order which it is now prcposed to repeal was to secure that those who brought forward railway schemes had the requisite means for carrying out their projects, and that that object has been attained up to the present moment. Now, however, certain parties come forward and ask Par liament to abrogate that rule, and to establish what I may venture to call a very bad and dangerous precedent. Why are the promoters of the bill so anxious that the evidence taken before tie select committee should not be printed ? That evidence will show whether their railway scheme is one to which the pr3visions of the standing order ought or ought not to apply ; and I really do not see, if their project be a good one, why they should object to the motion of the hon. member for Sandwich. If they had exerted themselves to carry out the objects - of the act of 1853—if they had exercised all due diligence to fulfil their covenants—then, I think, they would have been en titled to ask the house to consider whether or not it should relax the standing or d er w ith the view of ena bli ng th em t o execute their e ngagements; but it is notorious that they have not complied with the conditions of their act, and I think it would not be fair or just to extend an unusual in dulgence to a company placed in such circumstances. We havelecently dealt .a very different measure of justice to another company. What are the covenants of the East Kent Company? They undertook to complete certain arches over the river Medway by the. 4th of August, 1854, and to complete certain abutments of the bridge by the 4th of January, :1855.. I am now speaking on the 22d of May, 1855. The work that was to be finished on the 4th of August, 1854, under the penalty-of paying 10/. a day to. the Admiralty is not yet completed; while the work that was to be finished on the 4th of January, Mi t under a similar penalty, has not been commenced. Here, then, are two covenants plainly disregarded. But the engineer of the railway, intim delis connected with the engineer of the Admiralty, supported by Government in fluence, obtains - a relaxation of the penalties, by what means this house has yet to learn. Well, has any effort been made by the company to fulfil its covenants ? Far from it. The company got its bill in 1853. A call was made in September of the sameyear. That call was not very cordially responded to, and legal proceedings were obliged to be taken. The works, or at least a portion of them, were to be comp eted. in 1854, and yet during the whole of that year—from the month of September, 1853, till the month of Januaiy, 1855—not one single call was made by the company, nor wris there the least effort to fulfil the cove nants which had been entered into with the Govern ment. Is that a state of things in which any com pany should should be allowed to come before this house and ask to haver a standing order relaxed, which is specially meant to enforce the fulfilment of contracts? ..... this The Admiralty rolieves them from the penalties t . °blip house to go farther and release them from every , a little Lion imposed.by P afloat - tent ? lithe house will ha th ey will patience, and wait- until the eiridence is printed, ftf t the ed month ample crfeasgoopnttoom.bsuers,peicsti.;3v,hyaundo wethilyis wtheereoanitarociol/41 that time was not paid up. These have been what are_a call " bubble sche,nes. '• When the evidence is t P q tt the Ba st afraid the house will find it may have to aPP I Y -e it w ill Kent Railway a r t epithet which I will not now °e. it by find, for pan , that of the whole capital to be r I ° l .' a h m e ou c for the sum of 80, WO/. ; and that the oontractocr, au n ora to p flo y s,o o O r t ' ') e l. i ; nd th iv a i t a a aasitoiCik-bLroonkdinng ts to the make the railway ills engaged by himself or his ao„,.,nons_ so , amount of 72,00 W.

Upon referring, however, to the , e asia s " herr committee, I find that that question Noe sheet c a . tha t s -, 1 4::' them. I can only explain before bY statinit tee, I ,( o gs. ever these Kent bills came the cornet„roeee"4o a posely abstained from taking any part in tii! ii i c o ot ev oll Mr. FITZROY.—It appears to me that we e „ ing ilt 'OLIO large portion of our time unnecessat ily by' ' into the merits of this bill. The question is a very simple one. Two propositions havl„ tc h opli s t o b• the hon. member for Sandwich, both of wu jo i t , nic e in' me to be rather novel in character, no d ea rt,_ t ;boasji r s, gef t o e r: o ti go o l e to jectionable in principle. The first is, tbat.t_no„ up s oer stead of referring private bills to a Wail e; er ithei e s i d who would be able to take evidence and cons,"6ooollberf dispassionately, should itself deal with such co o f le e " o f:r decide them according to the chance attendan,_,, ho egef_ f ' ,t in this room. Such would be the result if n i " nbo ar u tho ir exposing members to the inconvenience and ' et as ide of ° t ndiug a committee up-gtairs, were to s to hill as t beir , report either against or iefavour of 0, Pri/ 5 , 0 ro vers e ,aber , value, and then proceed, as now proposed, % OD , raelcho decision altcgether. But the motion of th!
