Sir R Macdonnell's measure may be passed, and referred to Pauncefote's Code (Memorandum on the subject). The procedure until Pauncefote's return. He is at work upon it and was left in an unfinished state.
The difficulty is that in its present state it rather conforms to their fear of no special reference to Pauncefote's views.
May return and find this at work. A communication from Sir R Macdonnell mentions the code, for he performed legislation, so that it or thereabout should not be much disposed to telegraph "Postponing legislation on reconstruction of Courts &c."
Sir R Macdonnell's letter to Mr Pauncefote should always be on hand.
