§ SIR HENRY TYLERI beg to give Notice that on Monday I shall ask the First Lord of the Treasury, Whether Her Majesty's Government contemplate taking any step for the safety of General Gordon or for the relief of the garrisons in the Soudan?
MR. GLADSTONEI shall take the opportunity of answering the Question now, and also with reference to the Question of the hon. Baronet below the Gangway, by saying that my noble Friend stated the day before yesterday, on the part of the Government, that we should not make any announcement on that subject at present; and also the reason why. That determination of ours will not be changed before Monday.
