Sir ii. lIA RDINI; ft;resen tcd a petition fregt ttte inhabitant c f
Stockton against the Tees Railway BilL—Ordered to fie on the
table.
Sir H. HARHINHE said tint he should not sufilw that or sr,-.
tueity to peas without expressing his decided opposition to the
nod the manner in which those who sought for it had acted ; ther
who were to be benefited by this Bill had taken good care Cot ;he,
would surer none of the incomreniencies attcoAar.t no the formi:
of this rail-way, and to avoid them, they had actually mallnwyd
corying it two miles circuitously to prevent ita interfering 10,1,
their land, and in so doing they And carried it through the wocni
of Mr. Wright, who was hostile to the measure, and within- **ow
distance of the house of $ Noble Fr'.end of hist the Marv+ a
Londtmderry, which would materially injure his estate without
attending him any adequate good ; what he contended was, that
those who were to drtive the advanta;.ea of the nil-way sbelf-t
also sustain the evils of it. The Committee on the 11111 had„ .
the Ifith of April, reported to the House that the Standing Orde.
had not been complied with, and he should therefore move, the:
that Committee might be discharged from any further proesedlec.,
on that Rill.

Mr. A Wroth lIRTGATE srconded the n:otion.
loud IMWTH ER opposed it : he said it ass *work of
public utility and advantage ; and he therefore wished the Utie
migti: be recomntitted. Ile was aware that the greatest oppottet
to it was a Noble llarquts for whom he entertained the hightter?• -
%pea : but it did not touch an itch of his ground, nor intletikr
within a mile of it. As to Mr. Wright, he had wavered sit niut.,t
in his evidence„and had changed sides on the subject so frequently.
that it was difficult to say whether he was friendly or hostile to,tb.-
measure Resolutions had reentry passed this House for the our.
pose of &trading coals to the public at • cheaper rate than whet.
they at present paid for them ; and he was of opinion that evert
means that meditated that object ought to be supported, and th'..
was a great one. He should therefore ntove as an ammutment the.:
the Report of the Committee on the Tees Railway Bell should be
TC-committed.

SirJ. seconded the amendment, observing that t.c.
House had not been accustomed of late to Ix* the interests o(,ir..
dividuals with much delicacy when they wow opposed to works c'
public or national advantage. Ile was otopkiwis that Mr. Wright
was very wrong in having exhibited so muck coquetry on tile
subject.
hoed MILTON remarked that the question foe the considerat:o.
of the House was, whether the Tyne and Wean should be
.tit.
only outlets for Coals fmm Durham. or whether the Tees shon,4
be allowed to compete with then,. lie was of opinion that it we,
jealousy in nowise connected with the grounds that the railwai
passed through, that ins' igated the opposition to the present 111 j.
He concluded by stating that he shnnkl support the amendment.
