MR. MACDONALD CAMERON (Wick, &c.)asked the Postmaster General, Whether he will be prepared to advise the Treasury authorities to consent to the substitution of a mail gig between Dornoch and Bonarbridge, provided the inhabitants of these towns find a contractor who will carry the mails and parcels for the sum now being paid to the rural postmen and their assistants at present employed by the Post Office between these two towns?
§ THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE COUNCIL (Sir HENRY HOLLAND) (Hampstead)(who replied) said, if the hon. Member would put his proposal in writing and send it to the Postmaster General he would carefully examine it, and see if the request could be complied with.
