CAPTAIN BEAUMONT

asked the Secretary of State for War, How many officers of Royal Artillery and Royal Engineers have been officially accredited to either the Prussian or French Armies, with a view to obtaining professional information?

MR. CARDWELL

said, the Prussian Government felt obliged to decline receiving officers of the Royal Artillery and Royal Engineers whom Her Majesty's Government desired to attach to their Army before Paris; General Walker and Captain Hozier being already accredited to it. General Claremont, Colonel Riley, Royal Artillery, and Colonel Fielding, of the Guards, were accredited to the French Government.
