I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether the deposit of £15,000 provided under Article 15 of the Submarine Telegraph Contract (Halifax and Bermuda) to be made to the Paymaster General within one month of the approval of that Contract by this House has been made by the Halifax and Bermudas Cable Company, Limited; and, if so, on what date?

MR. JACKSON

Yes, Sir; the money was received on the 7th of June, and has been invested in the name of the Paymaster General.
