and ascertain what is going on. Seeing how important it always is that the authorities should be well posted, we wrote to the Registrar-General early on the 9th. apprising him of what had come to our knowledge, and (assuming that he was in possession of the facts) asking for details as to the deaths registered from plague. In his reply, which was received the same 136 morning, he alleged that none of the deaths registered were due to plague; which was only to be expected, as there is no law in this Colony requiring a proper certificate of death from a qualified medical man, There apparently the matter rested as far as the Registrar-General was concerned, for he does not seem to have thought it his duty to take any action on our inform- | ation. So the Government waited until the Daily Press took our cue-and then Mr. Acting Attorney-General LEACH gave the morning paper the sole credit. Here are the two reports, which speak for themselves:-
