§ * MR. BRYCE (Aberdeen, S.)I had placed upon the Paper a question to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the attention of Her Majesty's Government has been called to the statement in the Times of Saturday, the 9th instant, that the Turkish Government was making preparations to receive and settle in its territories 40,000 Mahom-medans who were about to quit their homes in the Caucasus; whether he can inform the House from what part of the Caucasus these intending emigrants came, and in what part of the Sultan's dominions it is intended to place them; and whether Her Majesty's Government, bearing in mind the lamentable consequences which have followed the intrusion of Circassians in various parts of European and Asiatic Turkey, will represent to the Ottoman Government the impolicy of planting settlements of Mahommedan mountaineers in districts inhabited by an agricultural Christian population? At the request of the right hon. Gentleman I will postpone the question till next week.
