§ MR. STACPOOLEasked the Secretary of State for War, Whether his attention has been called to the state of the barracks at Cashel, as described in a letter published in "The United Service Gazette" of the 30th March last; whether the statements in that letter are accurate as to the condition of the barracks; if they are, whether he will direct the next training of the North Tipperary Militia to be held at Clonmel or Nenagh, where ample barrack accommodation can be afforded them; and, whether it is his intention to fill up the second majority now vacant in that regiment, and when?
§ MR. CARDWELL, in reply, said, his attention was not drawn to the letter referred to in the Question of his hon. Friend until Notice of the Question was given. He had made a reference to Ireland in order to obtain an answer on the subject. With regard to the second portion of his hon. Friend's Question, he begged to say that it was intended to fill up the second majority now vacant in the North Tipperary Militia, and the question of who should be appointed was now under consideration.
