§ MR. FINLAY (Inverness, &c.)asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether there is any foundation for the rumour that it is in contemplation to abolish the distinctive name of the "Cameron Highlanders," or to convert the regiment into a battalion of Foot Guards; and, whether, in view of the universal dissatisfaction which would be caused in Inverness-shire and Scotland generally, any such change will be persisted in?
§ THE SECRETARY OF STATE (Mr. E. STANHOPE) (Lincolnshire, Horncastle)There is no intention at present to change in any way the name or the status of the Cameron Highlanders.
