Lord Hollandpresented a petition from Mr. W. Cobbett against the Kensington turnpike bill, then under the consideration of the House. He was himself a friend to the object of the bill against the preamble of which this petition was directed. The gentlemen who signed the petition stated, that the preamble contained several false allegations, and prayed to be heard at the bar against the bill.
