can have some relief from the expressions
of this foreign corporation, it will ruin
these business interests in the state. Be-
fore Mr.. Hyde concluded, his time expiredy
Mr. Bartlett Of Morgan demanded the
previous question, which demand was not
| seconded.
Mr.. Bailey of Farhaven said be was
sent to this legislature fion the midst of
this controversy, and he dared not go back
| to his constituents without raising his voice
against the expressions of a foreign mo-
nopoly. We have in his section slate in
terest that is valued at not less than 81
100000, which, if not oppressed by freight
charges so as to entirely ruin it, is capable
of being developed to an almost unlimited
extent. He thought the managers Of this
railroad were mistaken in the policy they
had adopted; but it was impossible TO con-
vince them that proper reduction in their
freight charges would result in larger net
income to their road by reason of the in
creased freight that would be offered them.
Mr.. Buell. of Mddletown was opposed TO
singing out any one road on which to fix
tariff of freghts. If we will reconsider the
vote, he would like to offer an amendment
to relieve the bill of the objection of special
legislation.
Mr.. Ladd of Alburgh opposed the motion
to reconsider, as he was opposed to such
special legislation, and he thought there
was no need of any such bill as this.
Mr.. Batchelder of Arlington, was oppos-
ed to special legislation in regard to any
railroad in this state, and he should oppose
the motion to reconsider for the same rea-
son that lie voted to dismiss. He thought
there was too much special legislation on
all subjects, and it would some day give
us trouble. He said it had appeared on the
floor of this house that the Rutland county
marble interests do not now have to pay as
high rates of freghts as do the Bennington
county marble dealers, and if we legislate
in favor of the Rutland dealers, we are put
ting it in their power to compete at great
advantage in the western markets for their
products. He objected to any such special
legislation he would favor a general law
10 regulate tariff on all railroads, but could
not vote for this bill
Mr. Munson of Manchester, said that he
understands that the tariffs now charged
by the Delaware and Hudson canal COM
pany, arc lower than those charged by
other roads, and hence there was no neces-
sity for any legislation in regard to this
corporation. He must, therefore, vote
against reconsidering the vote.
Mr.. Reed of Pawlct, said that, as a
believed that it would react to the detri-
ment of the farming interests
Mr.. Davenport of Wilmington, preferred
general legislation to special and if the
motion to reconsider can be reconsdered,
and the bill be made general in Its applica-
ton he would be pleased to support it.
Mr.. Grout Of Barton, said he, as a men,
Der of the committee, did not find the facts

to the bill, and explained the purport of
