asked the Postmaster General, The average weight of the mails from Perth to the North by the 12.40 a.m. train, and from Aberdeen to Keith by the 3.35 a.m. train, also the sums paid for the conveyance of each of those mails?

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. RAIKES) (Cambridge University)

, in reply, said, he would call for an account if the hon. Member desired it; but without taking an account he was unable to answer the Question. The remuneration for the conveyance of this particular mail from Perth to the North was included in the total payment under the contract with the Railway Company.
