Legislative Council. [Owing to the non-arrival of a steamer on Friday last, we were unable in our last to give the Council proceedings to later date than Tuesday, and the report of that day went no further in the Sydney papers than the close of the debate on Mr. Cowper's railway motion. We have now therefore to give the remainder of Tuesday's proceedings, and those of Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, and from the length to which they run can only give them in a very brief shape; the first three days principally abridged from the S. M. Herald, and Friday's given from the Empire.] Tuesday, December 2, 1851. Penrith Nepean Bridge Bill
