§ THE EARL OF HARROWBYI wish to ask the noble Earl the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether he has any information to give the House on the subject of the recent negotiations with Mexico, and whether there is any prospect of diplomatic relations being shortly opened?
§ EARL GRANVILLEIt will probably be satisfactory to the noble Earl to learn that a Treaty is about to be signed between this country and Mexico, which will result in the resumption of diplomatic relations between the two Governments on conditions which I believe are perfectly honourable to both countries, and for the purpose of negotiating a Treaty of Commerce.
§ THE EARL OF HARROWBYasked whether the noble Earl would lay the Papers relating to the subject upon the Table before the Holidays?
§ EARL GRANVILLEI should wish to do so, but I am afraid that they cannot be presented before the Prorogation.
