§ SIR H. DRUMMOND WOLFFasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether Her Majesty's Government will lay upon the Table Copies of the Despatches from Lord Lyons respecting the assurances given by the French Government that the French forces will be withdrawn from Tunis so soon as the Kroumir question is disposed of; and, whether he will also lay upon the Table Copies of the Correspondence with the Governments of Italy, Turkey, or any other power concerning the action of France in Tunis; and, whether Her Majesty's Government have received from Her Majesty's Ambassador at Constantinople any Report as to the communications made to the Porte by the French Ambassador on the subject of the departure of Turkish ironclads for Tunisian waters; and, whether he can state in detail the contents of such communications, and lay Mr. Goschen's Report upon the Table?
§ SIR CHARLES W. DILKEPapers on the subject are being prepared, and 274 it is hoped they will be ready for presentation to Parliament in the course of the ensuing week. No Report has been received from Mr. Goschen as to what has passed between the French and Ottoman Governments with reference to the departure of Turkish iron-clads for Tunisian waters beyond the mention of the fact that a Note respecting it had been presented by the Porte; but we have since received from the Porte a copy of the French Note, which, indeed, appears in a Paris journal of to-day.
