CAPTAIN JERVISsaid, he would beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War, If any system of telegraphing has been finally approved and adopted for the Army; and, if so, whether there will be any objection to lay upon the table of the House a copy of the Reports of any Committee or Committees on the various systems submitted to them?
THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTONsaid, in reply, that the Select Committee and other Committees bad inquired into the various systems of military telegraphy, and that recommended by Captain Bolton would, he believed, be ultimately adopted. The measures for the organization of the system were still under consideration; but as soon as they were decided upon he should be able to say what portion of the Reports he would be able to lay on the table.
