§ SIR WILLIAM HARCOURTasked, When the Report of the Royal Commission on the Fugitive Slave Question would be in the hands of Members? The purport of it was stated in the newspapers several days ago.
Mr. ASSHETON CROSS, in reply, said, the Report, as usual, was laid on the Table of both Houses of Parliament on Tuesday, and how any portion of it got into the newspapers next morning he was utterly unable to explain. As to the distribution of copies of the Report among Members, he should give instructions that that should be done as soon as possible after it was printed, which was now being done.
