§ MR. ARTHUR O'CONNORasked the Secretary of State for War, If he will state the reason why the 50th Regiment of Foot has been kept at home since June 1869, while every other regiment in the service has had its tour of foreign service?
§ MR. CHILDERSFor the reasons which I gave to the House on the 23rd instant, when I was asked about the 58th Regiment, I do not think that the House will expect me to give detailed explanations as to the time during which the 50th Regiment has been at home beyond this—that there is nothing exceptional in the case.
