one Student having been furnished by the College for the Diplomatic or Consular

Establishments in China.

But it may be worthy of your Lordship's consideration whether for the purpose of providing Interpreters in the Colony (of whom there is a lamentable want) some Colonial grant with a view to the furtherance of this very important

object, might not be substituted under proper control, for the Parliamentary

The whole subject of neglected public Education in this Colony fills my

mind with much anxiety, and for the deficiencies of which I earnestly desire to see some appropriate remedies provided.
