a_o answer_n to_o the_o objection_n against_o make_v the_o river_n dargo_v navigable_a objection_n i_o this_o navigation_n wi●●_n spoil_v the_o ford_n of_o the_o say_a river_n remove_v mr._n thomas_n stanhope_n two_o private_a horse-bridge_n over_o it_o and_o ruin_v his_o mill_n upon_o it_o and_o the_o say_a mr._n stanhope_n can_v be_v recompense_v nor_o the_o county_n accommodate_v answer_n the_o river_n trent_n into_o which_o the_o darwent_n run_v be_v famous_a for_o its_o many_o ford_n and_o yet_o be_v navigable_a and_o in_o this_o part_n of_o the_o river_n dargo_v be_v but_o two_o fo●ds_n of_o any_o note_n and_o those_o but_o seldom_o use_v but_o there_o be_v never_o a_o ford_n in_o it_o but_o what_o be_v deep_o than_o any_o of_o the_o ford_n in_o the_o navigable_a part_n of_o the_o river_n trent_n and_o therefore_o the_o ford_n in_o darwent_n will_v not_o be_v alter_v for_o they_o be_v deep_a enough_o already_o and_o will_v carry_v as_o great_a a_o burden_n as_o can_v be_v carry_v down_o or_o bring_v up_o the_o river_n trent_n mr._n stanhope_n bridge_n may_v be_v still_o enjoy_v without_o prejudice_n to_o the_o navigation_n by_o the_o help_n of_o draw_v bridge_n to_o be_v drawn-up_a while_o the_o boat_n pass_v and_o according_a to_o the_o bill_n can_v be_v touch_v till_o he_o have_v satisfaction_n and_o the_o mill_n will_v not_o be_v prejudice_v by_o the_o navigation_n for_o the_o boat_n will_v pass_v and_o repass_n the_o back-water_n and_o a_o lock_v make_v in_o the_o wear_n will_v when_o the_o boat_n etc._n etc._n come_v to_o it_o open_a to_o give_v they_o passage_n and_o then_o close_o again_o and_o keep_v the_o water_n for_o the_o use_v of_o the_o mill_n which_o will_v not_o be_v hinder_v half_o a_o hour_n at_o any_o time_n and_o it_o be_v provide_v by_o the_o bill_n that_o satisfaction_n be_v make_v before_o the_o wear_v be_v touch_v my_o lord_n chesterfield_n have_v likewise_o mill_n upon_o the_o say_a river_n and_o be_v consent_v to_o the_o navigation_n and_o there_o be_v no_o other_o upon_o this_o part_n of_o the_o river_n but_o he_o and_o mr._n stanhope_n object_n two_o that_o the_o river_n be_v so_o rapid_n as_o to_o wear_v away_o the_o ground_n on_o each_o side_n unless_o defend_v by_o waterworks_a and_o fleighter_a which_o the_o navigator_n will_v be_v empower_v to_o destroy_v in_o who_o land_n they_o please_v and_o so_o give_v away_o his_o land_n beside_o this_o will_v glut_v derby_n market_n with_o corn_n from_o remote_a part_n and_o so_o abate_v the_o price_n to_o the_o damage_n of_o one_o hundred_o town_n in_o nottinghamshire_n leicestershire_n and_o d●rby_n shire_n who_o resort_v thither_o to_o sell_v their_o corn._n answer_n both_o part_n of_o this_o objection_n represent_v the_o navigation_n as_o prejudicial_a in_o those_o very_a instance_n wherein_o it_o be_v high_o advantageous_a for_o by_o the_o bill_n the_o undertaker_n be_v from_o time_n to_o time_n after_o the_o river_n be_v make_v navigable_a to_o stop_v and_o repair_v the_o breach_n and_o hurt_v in_o the_o bank_n thereof_o at_o their_o own_o proper-costs_a which_o will_v ease_v the_o owner_n of_o the_o adjoin_v land_n of_o the_o expenceful_a waterworks_a and_o fleightering_n which_o they_o complain_v the_o rapid_n course_n of_o the_o river_n now_o oblige_v they_o to_o make_v and_o as_o to_o the_o corn_n the_o navigation_n will_v rather_o advantage_n those_o town_n who_o use_v derby-market_n for_o as_o this_o will_v bring_v more_o carriage_n of_o cheese_n butter_n etc._n etc._n to_o derby_n that_o will_v occasion_v great_a quantity_n of_o malt_n to_o be_v carry_v back_o and_o then_o the_o market_n will_v carry_v off_o more_o of_o their_o barley_n 2._o whoever_o will_v take_v the_o pain_n to_o make_v the_o comparison_n will_v find_v that_o all_o sort_n of_o corn_n for_o these_o twelve_o month_n last_o to_o go_v no_o further_o back_o have_v be_v as_o cheap_a and_o some_o sort_n cheaper_o in_o derby-market_n than_o at_o nottingham_n and_o newarke_n which_o lie_v low_a upon_o trent_n and_o if_o corn_n can_v be_v bring_v from_o the_o remote_a part_n the_o objector_n be_v so_o jealous_a of_o to_o those_o town_n so_o as_o to_o sell_v it_o cheaper_o than_o at_o derby_n there_o be_v no_o danger_n of_o glut_v the_o cheaper_o and_o more_o distant_a market_n of_o derby_n with_o it_o 3._o there_o be_v a_o fair_a prospect_n of_o send_v corn_n down_o often_o than_o it_o will_v be_v bring_v up_o from_o the_o remote_a part_n for_o what_o we_o can_v carry_v down_o the_o stream_n for_o three_o penny_n suppose_v will_v cost_v twelve_o penny_n to_o bring_v up_o against_o it_o and_o therefore_o if_o corn_n be_v so_o much_o dear_a below_n as_o to_o pay_v that_o three_o penny_n with_o advantage_n it_o will_v be_v send_v down_o whereas_o before_o we_o can_v fetch_v it_o up_o it_o must_v be_v so_o much_o dear_a at_o derby_n than_o at_o those_o place_n below_o as_o to_o pay_v the_o twelve_o penny_n with_o advantage_n and_o as_o in_o truth_n considerable_a quantity_n of_o corn_n have_v of_o late_a be_v send_v down_o the_o river_n so_o in_o all_o time_n it_o have_v be_v send_v down_o more_o frequent_o than_o bring_v up_o for_o this_o have_v never_o happen_v but_o in_o time_n of_o great_a scarcity_n when_o the_o country_n can_v not_o subsist_v without_o supply_n 4._o this_o river_n will_v ease_n the_o carriage_n and_o bring_v corn_n from_o leicester-shire_n and_o those_o part_n of_o nottinghamshire_n and_o derbyshire_n that_o have_v most_o benefit_n of_o derby-market_n and_o of_o this_o several_a town_n in_o leicester-shire_n be_v sensible_a and_o have_v petition_v for_o it_o object_n iii_o corn_n will_v be_v sell_v at_o derby_n which_o else_o will_v be_v sell_v and_o toll_v at_o nottingham_n where_o out_o of_o the_o toll_v they_o pay_v the_o king_n a_o fee-farm_n rend_v of_o sixty_o pound_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la and_o maintain_v a_o bridge_n at_o the_o yearly_o expense_n of_o two_o hundred_o pound_n answer_n that_o rent_n be_v reserve_v out_o of_o land_n grant_v to_o they_o by_o the_o crown_n and_o not_o out_o of_o the_o toll_n and_o they_o have_v land_n settle_v for_o repair_v of_o the_o bridge_n sufficient_a to_o keep_v it_o in_o repair_n nor_o ought_v the_o profit_n of_o the_o town_n of_o nottingham_n overbalance_n the_o public_a good_a and_o the_o advantage_n of_o all_o those_o many_o place_n which_o will_v have_v benefit_n by_o this_o navigation_n nor_o will_v nottingham_n in_o truth_n lose_v much_o of_o its_o toll_n for_o if_o the_o trade_n of_o derby_n exceed_v that_o of_o nottingham_n so_o that_o barley_n fall_v with_o they_o and_o rise_v with_o we_o and_o that_o we_o have_v occasion_n for_o their_o barley_n we_o shall_v buy_v in_o their_o market_n as_o be_v well_o know_v be_v former_o do_v till_o nottingham_n by_o the_o benefit_n of_o their_o navigation_n and_o the_o carriage_n of_o good_n thither_o by_o those_o who_o will_v not_o willing_o return_v empty_a and_o therefore_o take_v back_o malt_n from_o thence_o to_o place_n which_o derby_n use_v to_o supply_v gain_v a_o great_a part_n of_o that_o mault-trade_n which_o derby_n be_v before_o in_o possession_n of_o and_o derby_n pay_v a_o fee-farm-rent_n of_o one_o hundred_o pound_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la to_o the_o king_n majesty_n and_o repair_v a_o very_a large_a bridge_n over_o the_o river_n dargo_v beside_o several_a other_o small_a bridge_n and_o have_v only_o the_o toll_n to_o enable_n they_o to_o pay_v the_o same_o object_n iv_o that_o the_o abate_n of_o the_o price_n of_o corn_n will_v discourage_v tillage_n and_o destroy_v the_o breed_n of_o horse_n employ_v therein_o which_o be_v some_o fit_n for_o coach_n and_o some_o for_o war._n answer_n this_o be_v urge_v with_o respect_n to_o the_o public_a and_o so_o it_o be_v frivolous_a because_o the_o discourage_a tillage_n here_o by_o fetch_v corn_n cheaper_o from_o other_o place_n be_v a_o encouragement_n to_o it_o in_o those_o other_o place_n and_o will_v there_o employ_v as_o many_o able_a horse_n and_o more_o if_o the_o cheapness_n of_o corn_n cause_v more_o to_o be_v spend_v but_o take_v it_o either_o in_o relation_n to_o the_o public_a or_o to_o those_o county_n and_o the_o answer_n to_o the_o second_o objection_n answer_v it_o and_o we_o may_v urge_v in_o favour_n of_o the_o navigation_n that_o it_o will_v as_o have_v be_v show_v encourage_v tillage_n and_o consequent_o more_o of_o these_o useful_a horse_n and_o cause_n more_o of_o they_o to_o be_v breed_v and_o however_o the_o carriage_n from_o wilne-ferry_n wither_v trent_n be_v now_o navigable_a to_o derby_n be_v now_o but_o eight_o penny_n for_o a_o quarter_n of_o corn_n the_o navigation_n will_v save_o but_o that_o eight_o penny_n which_o can_v never_o destroy_v tillage_n though_o it_o shall_v so_o much_o lessen_v the_o farmer_n be_v profit_n object_n v_o
