Inclosure in Despatch

copy to theas for information

My Lord,

RECEIVED

MAR 28

Pretoria, 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.

& Right Honorable The Earl Grey,

&c., &c., &c.

Leave of absence to proceed to Europe on the 15th January, 1850, be allowed. Recommending that Mr. Comelate, Surgeon, be granted leave upon the state of his health, as per Certificate by the Colonial Surgeon dated 27th January, 1850.
