§ SIR GEORGE CAMPBELLasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, If he has information of the circumstances under which the Prince of Bulgaria dismissed the Assembly, duly elected in accordance with the Constitution, before it had an opportunity of proceeding to business, and went off to visit the Emperor of Russia before calling together another Assembly; whether the new elections have been fairly conducted; and, whether any time is appointed for the meeting of the new Assembly and establishment of a Constitutional Government, or whether there 24 is any reason to suppose that the Prince is engaged in an attempt to subvert the Constitution?
§ MR. BOURKEAccording to the information we have received, the Assembly was dissolved in due course of law, and we have not heard of any irregularity in the conduct of the elections. Her Majesty's Government have not been informed of any intention on the part of the Prince of Bulgaria to attempt to subvert the Constitution of that Principality.
§ SIR GEORGE CAMPBELLWould the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs be so good as to answer a part of the Question which he overlooked—whether any time is appointed for the meeting of the New Assembly in place of the one dissolved?
§ MR. BOURKEWe have not heard yet.
