notice to the commissary-general in the Crimea of
the intention to send out cavalry, and of the amount
it was determined to send. If that were not done,
these hor• es when sent out would find nothing to eat.
(Hear, hear.) Notice should be given at once through
the electric telegraph, otherwise the whole of their cavalry
would be sent to a desert which produced nothing.
The cavalry could only depend on the supplies that
would be sent by ships for their support, and this would
cause a serious demand for tonnage. We were carrying
on our operations by means of transports, and he trusted
that on every occasion, the instant any intention was
determined, notice of it would be despatched to the
commissary-general in the Crimea.
Lord PANMURE said that he had had a communi-
tion that day from General Scarlett, and he put the
number of cavalry soldiers at 1,300, and of horses at 450.
Lord VIVIAN did not press for the returns.
Motion withdrawn.

The Earl of DERBY said that the noble marquis had
on the previous evening stated that the noble earl the
Secretary of State fur Foreign Affairs would either make
a statement, or inform the house on what day he would
do so, relative to the result of the negotiations atVienna,
and to the present position of the Allied Powers towards
themselves and towards Russia. He (Lord Derby) had
seen the noble earl the Foreign Secretary on two or three
occasions that evening flitting through the house—(a
laugh)—but he had been unable to find any occasion to
put a question to him on this subject. He now asked
the noble marquis, in the absence of the noble earl, it
he could state anything on the part of the noble earl
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE had not stated that
his noble friend (the Earl of Clarendon) would make a
statement that day, but that he had no doubt he would
make a statement very soon—so soon, indeed, as possi-
ble. He had spoken to his noble friend a few moment.
before, and he bad only just left the house. (A. laugh.)
The Earl of DERBY—I understood from the noble
marquis yesterday that the noble earl would be here
to-day, an I would inform the house when he would make
such a statement as I had referred to.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE—I did not use the
word "to-day." But I agree that it is of the greatest
importance that a statement should be made on the ear-
liest possible day. (Hear.) I cannot undertake to say
where my noble friend is at this moment. (A laugh.)
Their lordships adjourned at 20 minutes past six.
