§ MR. ANDERSONasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, If he has observed a statement going the round of all our newspapers, said to be copied from the "New York Times," stating that "President Grant had requested General Schenck to resign in compliance with a demand from the British Government for his immediate recall;" and, if he has any objection to say if there is any foundation for the statement that any such demand was made by Her Majesty's Government?
§ MR. BOURKE, in reply, said, he had seen the statement referred to, and he had to state that there was not the slightest foundation for the statement that any such demand was made by Her Majesty's Government.
