HC Deb 17 February 1876 vol 227 c406
MR. M'LAGAN

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether, seeing that the price of Peruvian guano is at present nearly £3 per ton higher in this Country than in America, Her Majesty's Government has called upon the Peruvian Government to equalise the price in the two Countries, in terms of a promise made on a former occasion by the Agent of the Peruvian Government, viz. that "the same price would in future be charged in this Country as was charged in America?"

MR. BOURKE

, in reply, said, that the Government had again urged upon the Peruvian Government that England was fairly entitled to receive the "most favoured Nation "treatment in this matter.
