Since writing my Despatch No. 59 of the 13. 3rd. ultimo on the subject of Mr. Young Hee's salary, I have
received your Despatch No. 16 of the 16th. January last on
the subject of the Sterling Scheme of Salaries. I propose to
take into consideration the Sterling Salary to be given to Mr.
Young Hee in conjunction with the question of fixing Sterling
Salaries for other Officers holding non-clerical posts the
salaries of which exceed $1,200 per annum and I shall address
you separately on the subject.

I enclose for your consideration and ap-
proval a statement, in the form of a Supplementary Estimate,
of the expenditure which I have authorised during the current
year out of the lump sum of $20,000 voted on the Estimates for improvements in Education. I have included in the statement
the salaries of the new Masters who have been added to the
Department, but a separate vote will be taken in the Legisla-
tive Council for their salaries in accordance with your
