He suggested that the best plan would be, to raise a body of men in England, expressly for this service, the expense of which would be met, in part, by a rate levied on the residents on the Island – As however, he could not answer for the expense, or practicability of this Plan, he left it to your Lordship to explain further the circumstances of the case, and the necessity of some persons being sent from England, owing to the impossibility of trusting entirely to native Policemen and the great difficulty of obtaining Europeans for that duty.
Since the personal communication I had with your Lordship on this subject, I have made every enquiry as to the expense, carrying out Sir Henry's wishes, and find, that to maintain a force of four Inspectors would cost at least six thousand pounds a year.
From a rough calculation I have made, I do not think that at present more than £3,000 a year could be raised by a rate of a shilling in the pound on the houses now built on the Island, but this of course would increase yearly, without any corresponding necessity for increase in the Police force. – Of course, in this calculation, I have not taken into account the salaries of the Magistrate and the expense of Police stations which would have to be built and kept in repair.
