§ MR. MARK STEWARTasked the Postmaster General, Whether his attention has been called to the desirability of establishing telegraphic communication between New Galloway and Dalmellington; and, if such is the case, what decision, if any, has been arrived at on the subject?
§ LORD JOHN MANNERS,in reply, said, that the Government had had under consideration a proposal to establish such a telegraphic communication, but that they did not think the results of the undertaking would justify the outlay which would be required to carry it out.
