§ COLONEL NORTHsaid, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for War, Whether it is true, as stated in The Times of the 2nd of April with regard to the military stationed at the Mauritius, that there was now an ample supply of quinine and other drugs, which there had not been at first, and which are most useful in meeting the attacks of Fever now prevalent in that Island?
§ SIR JOHN PAKINGTONreplied, that he was happy to say that there was not, and had not been, any deficiency of medical supplies such as that represented. The statement must have been founded upon a misapprehension.
