§ MR. ERRINGTONasked Mr. Attorney General for Ireland, Whether any one has been appointed to fill the office of Registrar to the Recorder of Dublin, rendered vacant by the death of Mr. Hugh Irwin, or to do the duties and receive the fees of the office; and, if so, perhaps he would inform the House, under what statute and by whom the appointment has been made?
§ THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. GIBSON), in reply, said, the Recorder of Dublin had appointed Mr. M'Gusty, a practising solicitor of great respectability in Dublin; but, having regard to pending legislation, it had been stipulated that there should be no claim for compensation, consequent on the abolition or changes made in the duties of the office.
