§ MR. HENNESSYsaid, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, If his letter to the Chancellors of the English Universities, with respect to the appointment of student interpreters in China and Japan, is confined to those Universities, or if Dublin University and the Queen's University in Ireland will be allowed to partake of the same advantage?
§ LORD JOHN RUSSELLsaid, that his letter to the Chancellors of the English Universities had reference simply to those institutions, but it was intended to enlarge the number of students, and when that had been done communications would be addressed to Ireland and Scotland with respect to the nomination of candidates.
