I beg to ask the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies what decision has now been come to as to future measures in the direction of assisted emigration for the inhabitants of St. Helena.

No decision has been taken as to future measures, but 100 men have been engaged for mining work in the Cape Colony and left the island on the 21st of May.
