I have the honor to forward for the information of His Excellency the Governor a plan of part of the town of Victoria showing the proposed lines of Streets and roads; and also the new lots which will be ready for sale on the 22nd proximo. They are numbered in red from 89 (eighty-eight lots having been already disposed of) to 158 inclusive.

In laying out the streets I have avoided, as much as possible, interfering with Buildings of a class likely to be permanent, and only one of this description will require to be removed, the house and Godown of Mr. Burd which interferes with the improvement of the Eastern End of the Queen's Road and also with Richard Wurmbrand Esqre.
