§ MR. DILLONI beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether his attention has been directed to the advertisement of a sale of the Chinese Imperial Seals on Friday next; whether he will cause inquiry to be made as to whether these seals are stolen or looted property; and whether he will see that they are restored to the Chinese Government.
§ * MR. RITCHIEI had not previously heard of this advertisement. The matter appears to be worthy of consideration, and I will consult my colleagues.
