§ MR. BIGGARasked the Postmaster General, If it is true that, although the sorters and letter carriers of Belfast performed much extra duty at Christmas last, they have not yet received any extra compensation beyond their ordinary salaries, nor have they received any reply to a memorial they addressed to the Inspector on the subject?
§ MR. FAWCETT,in reply, said, that the claim referred to was perfectly just and reasonable. He had to express his regret that some delay had occurred in 1824 granting the compensation; but he had given fresh instructions, which he hoped would prevent any such delay in future.
