LORD DUNKELLINsaid, he would beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury, Whether be has received any communication from the Atlantic Royal Mail Company relating to the present position and prospects of the Company; and, if so, whether he would have any objection to state the purport of such communication to the House?
§ Viscount PALMERSTONSir, I have received a written communication from that Company, but I had rather not state its substance, because one is always apt or understate what parties may think important. If my noble Friend will move for the production f the Paper, I shall have no objection to lay it on the table.
