MR. J. COWENasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether any communication has been received from any Foreign Government asking Her Majesty's Government to join in a common declaration approving of the course recently pursued by Prince Alexander in Bulgaria; and, whether, if so, any and what reply has been made?
§ SIR CHARLES W. DILKENo, Sir; no common declaration approving the course recently pursued by Prince Alexander in Bulgaria has been proposed. A proposal that the Powers should join in counselling union between the Prince and his people was made, but 1468 not formally carried into effect, and the Papers about to be laid on the Table will contain the correspondence on the subject.
