§ MR. WOOTTON ISAACSONI beg to ask the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he will lay upon the Table of the House Copies of all letters, agreements, and receipts given by Admiral Colomb, relating to his invention of the Flash Signals?
§ LORD G. HAMILTONAs the question of this officer's services in the introduction into the Navy of the system of flashing signals is still under consideration, it would be inexpedient to present to Parliament at the present time any Papers on the subject.
