MY LORD,                                                                                                                          (RECEIVED October 23, 1866.)

I HAVE the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your Lordships Despatch, No. 50, * of September 14th, respecting the departure for England of the Canadian Delegates on the Union question.

My Despatch, No. 147, * of September 25th, will have informed your Lordship of the time fied by the Canadian Ministers for going to England, and of the reasons why a partial representation from Canada could not, in their opinion, be attended with any practical results.

I have, &c.
