opinion with Lord Hawley that the Salary of the Governor and Superintendent of Trade, may with propriety be fixed at Six thousand pounds per Annum.

As other considerations besides those of personal economy and convenience have to be regarded

in fixing the Residence of the Governor, their Lordships are of opinion that it will be necessary, according to the usual practice, to erect a Government House

Scale at the Public Expense, and
