§ MR. H. BAILLIEsaid, he rose to ask the Secretary of State for India, what sum the Indian Government proposes to allow as a suitable sum for the Rajah of Oude? After the manner in which the Prince of Oude had been treated—the Indian Government having not only deprived him of his territory, but plundered him of his private property; his horses, carriages, jewels, and even his clothes, having been seized and sold—he thought the least the Indian Government could do was to make him a suitable allowance, and he wished to know what allowance they proposed to make. He also wished to know when the right hon. Gentleman proposed to take the second reading of the Indian Loan Bill.
§ SIR CHARLES WOODsaid, he had received no notice of his hon. Friend's first question, and was, therefore, unprepared to answer it. As to the Indian Loan Bill he proposed to take the second reading this evening after the Votes in Supply.
