§ SIR G. GREYhad received information from the Mayor of Portsmouth that the workpeople who had arrived there were in a very destitute condition, and that a communication had been transmitted to the authorities at Rouen with reference to the unpaid wages, clothing, and other property which they had left behind, in order that information might he transmitted through the Foreign Office to Paris, with a view of obtaining compensation to the injured parties from the Provisional Government. A considerable number of workpeople were still expected to arrive at Portsmouth from Havre, and he might also state that he had a letter from the Lord Mayor of London, informing him that a number of persons in a destitute state had arrived from France in the city of London.
