§ SIR GEORGE CAMPBELLasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, If he has yet obtained the information which he promised to ask for in the beginning of the "Session as to the causes of the decrease of the employment of migratory Irish agricultural labourers in the north of England and south of Scotland, and has ascertained whether there are permanent causes of decrease in the demand for a class of labour previously much appreciated; and, whether the Irish labourers are likely still to be welcomed as an aid during half the year?
§ MR. TREVELYANThe English Local Government Board and the Scotch Board of Supervision were good enough to undertake the inquiries which I asked for in this matter. The greater part of the Reports, which are extremely numerous, only reached my Office on Saturday last, and I have not yet had an opportunity to look into them. I will do so during the Recess.
