§ MR. O'DONNELLasked the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies, Whether Her Majesty's Government have consented to the payment of the levies of the Cape Government out of the confiscated lands and cattle of the Basutos?
§ MR. COURTNEYSir, I thought I had answered the Question last Friday. It is for the Cape Parliament to provide the means for the payment of the Cape levies. All that has passed between Her Majesty's Government and the Cape Government on the question of the future treatment of the Basutos appears in the Blue Book issued last week.
