§ MR. MARUMasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, When an appointment of Her Majesty's Lord Lieutenant and Custos Rotulorum of and for the Queen's County will be made; and, whether, in the selection thereof, regard will be had to the circumstance that, at present, there are but nine Roman Catholic magistrates out of seventy-nine on the roll of justices in a county where eighty-six per cent, of the population are of that persuasion?
§ MR. TREVELYANIn reply, I have to say that the Lord Lieutenant has already appointed Lord De Vesci to the offices named.
