May I again beg your Lord Knutsford G.C.M.G., Her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State, in recommending my case for reconsideration as it is clear this Lordship has been misinformed, as to my position in this department, and not possible to assign me a position at least equal in grade to the one I now hold, that I may be allowed to apply for promotions in another Colony.

Chas. M. Mallet.
