RAILWAY RESOLUTIONS.
Lord BROUGHAM then moved his third resolution
(which was postponed yesterday evening) in reference to Rail.
way Bills.
The Earl of WICKLOW was anxious to se.i some provi-
sion, such as the Noble Lord proposed to intro iuce, in refe.
rence to Railway Bills, but he thought that tt ere would be
some bad effects attending it which he could not assent to.
The Duke of RICHMOND said they must insert a clause
in th• Bill, saying that the parties should pay the costs.
Lord BROUGHAM said they had no power of levying
money, but they had the power to compel the parties to pay
the costs, if they thought the case was one in which they
ought to do so. He had no objection, as most of the members
of the Committee were not present, to postpone the resolution
until Monday. It was postponed accordingly. The Noble
and Learned Lord then proposed the fourth resolution, " That
in every railway, road, or canal Bill, after the present session,
there shall, in the first session in which it is brought in, be
proved in the Committee thereon, two-thirds in number of as-
sents of landowners on every two miles of the line, or on every
four miles, if there be fewer than three landowners; and
that if more than one-third shall dissent on any such two miles
or four miles respectively, the railway, road, or canal shall not
be suffered to pass through those two miles or four miles, or
any part thereof ; and that except within two miles of the
termini, all owners of land within two hundred yards of the
proposed line shall be deemed and taken to be owners in
reckoning the number of the assents and dissents," which was
agreed to.
