§ Viscount DALRYMPLEasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether his attention has been called to a Bill, introduced by Mr. James S. Simmonds, representative of New York State, in the American Parliament, imposing prohibitive regulations on the importation of nursery stock, and the injury this is calculated to cause exporters from this country; and whether he will take any action in the matter?
§ Sir E. GREYI have been informed of the introduction of this Bill, and understand that it is opposed by the nursery interests in the United States. If the Noble Lord wishes I will inquire as to its present position and prospects.
