In the matter of the Oagliari there are two ques-

what may call the national question the other the

respect to that part Of the question we have received
the opinions OF the Crown officers. and their opinions
on that subject are unanimous. They are of opinion
that the detention and Imprisonment of Park and
Watt were Illegal In consequence of having re-
eeiyed that opinion we have after all that dehration
which so serious matter demanded. addressed dis
patch TO the Minister OF the King OF Naples and the
Secretary of State has demanded compensation for
the grievances which have been experienced BY our

the international question, that is question quite
distinct and separate from the other IN which Eng
