CIRCULAR to

Legislative Colonies

Downing Street,

6th December, 1856.

27

Sir,

I wish to call your attention to the provisions

of a recent Statute, 18 and 19 Vict., cap. 90, intituled

"An Act for the Payment of Costs in Proceedings insti-

tuted on behalf of the Crown in Matters relating to the

Revenue, and for the Amendment of the Procedure and Practice in Crown Suits in the Court of Exchequer."

The provisions of this Statute, especially Sections 1 and 2, although confined to the United Kingdom, are of general interest and importance; and, as circumstances have led me to suppose that they are not generally known in Her Majesty's Colonial Possessions, I recommend it to your consideration (with the advice of your Council) whether they may not be properly adopted by the Legislature of the Colony under your Government.

I have the honour to be,

Your most obedient,

Humble Servant,
