§ Mr. McKENNASome of the Norwegian granite approved to be used in the construction of the docks at Rosyth has arrived there. Specimens of this and of Irish, Cornish, and Scotch granite can be procured, though it would take some time to do so, and can, if the House should so desire, be placed in the Tea Room; but it may be doubted whether its presence would add to the convenience of Members using the room.
