TRENT TRANSPORT SHIP.
Colonel BLAIR asked whether the Admiralty had
received any report of a board of ofßcers having con-

the Trent transport; and further, whether that vessel

matter, which had arisen in this way : The beer put on
board consisted on two qualities—beer to be tapped im-
mediately, and beer to be tapped after some delay. It
appeared, however, that a cask of the latter
was tapped first, and hence the report alluded to had
arisen. (A laugh.)
