MR. KNATCHBULL-HUGESSEN

asked the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies, Whether he can give the House the latest information as to the recent outbreak among certain native tribes in the Colony of Natal, especially as to the means taken to suppress that outbreak, and the measures adopted since its termination; and, whether he will lay upon the Table of the House Papers upon the subject?

MR. J. LOWTHER

Sir, the latest information as to the recent outbreak in Natal is to the effect that tranquillity has been completely restored. Papers are now in course of preparation which will show the means taken to suppress the disturbances, and the measures which have since been adopted. These Papers will shortly be completed by the addition of some further despatches which are being awaited, and will then be presented without delay.
