MR. LESLIEsaid, he wished to ask the Lord Advocate, Whether the new Order in Council, dated the 11th instant, continues to county local authorities the power to regulate the admission of cattle into their respective counties, as to them may, from time to time, seem proper and expedient?
THE LORD ADVOCATEsaid, in reply, that he had no doubt that the 49th section of the Order in Council referred to, continued to the local authorities the powers which they previously possessed to prevent the introduction of cattle into their respective counties.
