' Ihe Special Qrder, being the consid eration ol the Midland North Carolina Railway, which is proposed to run from Leautort to Memphis, was called up. Mr. Love opposed the bill, as he thought there were provisions asked for therein that were too broad to be enter tained. He was in favor of railroads, he cared nof how many there were in the tate, but he would not vote for a bin that had no defiuite line. Mr. Worth layored the granting of the broad privileges, as the corporators couiu then be better enabled to prose cute tneir intentions. jur. ivierriman : waiicea the road to nn - . ... . . , . T I '.1 I t lAnl' t L x alub ilU I . He thought there was nothing tangible in tho bill, and he did not favor the Legislature giving corpo rations the right to roam at will over the State. Mr. Gudger had no objoction to the compauy building, its road lrom and to any point they pleased,. provided no appropriation froth the State was asked. Mr. Troy offered an amendment providing that this act shall not allow the corporation to interlere, in its ex clusive right for fifty ' years, with any authority already vested in a ccrporatcd railroad company. Adopted. arious ame.ndo: ents were offered looking to the location of thofoad upon some definite Iinfr, creating muc'i discussion, but could . not be made intelligible without publishing the bill. Mr. Dunham said he wai a friend to internal improvements. He would .yield to no other Senator in his advocacv of all geneiahimpi()vemenl3 and in tho development ot the rcsouixes of the btate ButTie would not vote to any corporate, body the powers asked for in Lthis bill. The primary purpose of this incorporation was to make money for t lie incorporators any advantage to tiie State or the people. of the State was a secondary consideration. The privileges here asked lor were unjust to" the Slate, and such as should not be granted to huv col notation. He r.onld the bill its support, unless it was more thoroughly guarded. Mr. Merrimon endorsed every! hiuT said by Mr. Dunham. He believed' the object of this corporation was to buy up ana ootam control ot all other roads in the State. It was a species of the Credit Mobilier, and he did not want to see the roads of the State tramellcd ,by any corporation possessing unlimited powers. x ."'..-.
