No. 12. of 1850

Inclosure in Despatch

Separate

Copy to be sent for information

My Lord,

RECEIVED
MAR 28

Government, Hongkong,
30th
January, 1850.

77

In my Despatch Separate of the 27th December, 1848, I reported to Your Lordship that there were certain offices in this Colony, which I thought when they became vacant need not be filled up, and I now have the honor to enclose a Memorandum of those that have become vacant during the past year, which I have abolished.

I am of opinion that the establishment is now on as low a scale as it can be reduced to with respect to numbers, proper regard being had to efficiency, and to the state of the health of the community.

The Right Honorable
The Earl Grey,
&c., &c., &c.

and recommending that Mr. Comelate's health, he be allowed leave of absence to proceed to Europe for 5 months.

27th. January, 1850.
