continued exclusion

of the Treasurer

from the Executive, and of the

General Commanding

the Troops

from the Legislative Council, is regretted by the most competent judges. I shall shortly address

Your Lordship

on this subject.

I shall summon the

reconstructed Council to meet for the despatch of business, so soon as I shall receive the formal

instrument empowering

me to

take this action. And I shall

not fail to inform Your Lordship

of the names of

the gentlemen proposed

for the new

Unofficial seats,

as soon as

I shall have arrived at a

decision, after full enquiry

and

consideration, on this important

subject.

I have the honour to be

My Lord;

Your Lordship's most obedient

humble

Bowen
