The Marquess of Londonderrysaid, that having- read the correspondence which had recently been laid on the fable respecting the claims of the British Legion, he was bound incandour to tell the noble Viscount opposite, that nothing could be more completely satisfactory than this correspondence. Their Lordships would find by a letter from our Ambassador, that a sum of 50,000l. had actually been transmitted to this country, and that the payment of the men was now going forward. It appeared, also, that there were in the hands of our Ambassador; securities for the payment of five more separate instalments of 50,000l. each; and, what was still more satisfactory, on the day of the last payment her Catholic Majesty would also allow compensation to the men, the amount of which was to be settled between the two governments. He thought that nothing could be more satisfactory to the officers and men of the Legion than this arrangement.
