HOUSE OF LORDS-

--FRIDAY

The Earl of MINTO moved for various returns connected
with the present state of our navy, and required explanations
as to why it was that there had been less ship-building last
ear than was expected, and why it was that, in the face of
the decrease in ship-building, a reduced vote was proposed
to be taken for the present year. In other departments there
also appeared to be reductions, of which he also required

expuinaLw..
The Duke of WELLINGTON doubted
sought for by the noble earl should be given.
The Earl of HADDINGTON..said he
.had not received suffi-
cient notice for the extent of information required, and hoped
the noble lord would give notice fur a future evening, when
he would be prepared.
The Earl of MINT() said he would confine his motion
within the limits of the notice he had given. He then en-
tered into lengthened details upon the present state of b
ness in the dock-yards, &c., and concluded by moving for
