THE EARL OF DONOUGHMOREsaid, that, seeing that the noble and learned Earl upon the Woolsack was the only Member of the Government in attendance, he would ask him, Whether he would make inquiries of the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, as to whether the correspondence between the Lord Lieutenant and Lord Arthur Hill relative to the Nationalist meetings at Newry and the proposed counter - demonstrations could be laid on the Table?
THE LORD CHANCELLOR, in reply, said, he could not answer the Question without Notice; because it was manifestly one that could only be answered after communication with the Lord Lieutenant. He took it for granted, however, that any Correspondence which had taken place in regard to the matter which had appeared in the newspapers would be laid upon the Table sooner or later.
