§ SIR JAMES ELPHINSTONEsaid, he rose to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty, Whether Sir Charles Fremantle's Report upon the state of the Research after the trial of her guns will be laid on the table?
§ LORD CLARENCE PAGET,in reply, said, there would be no objection to lay the Report on the table, but it made no mention of any damage done to the vessel.
§ MR. FERRANDsaid, he wished to know, Whether the Admiralty intend to call for a Report from the Commander-in-Chief as to the damage done to the Research?
§ LORD CLARENCE PAGETsaid, the Admiralty had already received a Report from the official persons of all the damage done on the occasion of the trial. The Commander-in-Chief had made a Report which he should lay on the table, and it would give a detailed statement of whatever damage had been done.
