§ "V. R."
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUERMr. Speaker, I beg leave to move that Her Majesty's most gracious Message be referred to the Committee of Supply. The Committee of Supply stands for this evening, but I apprehend it is perfectly well understood that Her Majesty's Message will be taken into consideration on Monday evening next.
§ MR. DISRAELISir, with respect to this side of the House, I am sure I may say that there is every disposition to vote any aid that Her Majesty may require, in order to carry on the war with vigour, spirit, and energy. As I understand, the House will have to take Her Majesty's Royal Message into consideration on Monday next, when I not only hope and trust, but indeed I suppose, Her Majesty's Ministers will be enabled to assure the House that in the present state of affairs there will be an autumnal Session.
