§ In reply to Dr. CLARK (Caithness),
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. W. H. SMITH) (Strand,208 Westminster) said, that whether he should move the adjournment of the House on Thursday or Friday depended entirely on the pleasure of the House. If it were to be on Thursday, it must be understood that the Government Business would be disposed of, and that the Motion would be made at a late hour, and agreed to without discussion. If not, and the Motion was to be made on Friday, it would be necessary to have a Morning Sitting on that day. It would be necessary to take a Vote on Account before the adjournment on Thursday.
