Case relative to the Tothill Fields Bill.
In the Deans-Yard Square Act already mentioned,
there was neither consent given by any of the Parties (besides the
two Individuals at whose solicitation it was passed) nor so
much as application made for consent to the Parishioners, but
a strong opposition both from the Vestry as a body(d) (the Parishes
the same in that instance as the present) and from a numerous
list of Individuals:— and yet the Bill passed into a Law.—
As to the propriety of taking Ground by compulsive
powers for such a purpose as that in question, it is a point not
open to dispute, having been already affirmed twice over by the
Legislature, and that in relation to the particular purpose
here in question: viz: once by the original Penitentiary Act (19 Geo
3 Ch 74) and again by the Penitentiary Contract Act (34 Geo 3
Ch 84) the enforcement and amendment of which is the object
of the present Bill.
The object of the Bill (it should all along be observed) is—
not to create de novo any such compulsive powers as those in
question— not to add any thing to the existing stock of those
powers— but only to transfer, and by transferring to mollify in
effect, as set of powers of the sort in question already created by
two former Acts. The spot at Battersea which (as well as any
other Lands in separate ownership with the four Counties
except the Scites of Dwelling Houses with their Appurtenances)
may be taken at any time under those Acts, is a Spot,
in relation to which the pretium affectionis has been found
to operate (as it well might be expected to operate) with more
than ordinary force: and it is only for the purpose of
transferring the exercise of the powers in question from that
favorite Spot, to an ill famed and desolate Spot, altogether
unsusceptible of any such attribute as the pretium affectionis,
that the present Bill is proposed.
If there were any Class of Persons, in whose instance the
(d)Review &c ut supra.
