I hope however by this mail to be able to address You on a subject of interest as associated with the "native Government" of this Colony. - A conciliatory Ordinance prepared by the Acting Attorney General has however been thrown out by the Legislative Council, on a motion of Mr. John Smith supported by the other non-Official members (all of them practically interested) and those of the official members - the real matter at issue being the application of a sum of £13,000 from a surplus of about £20,000 (in hand) to the construction of that part of the Praya which fronts the Government premises.
I should, had I remained here, undoubtedly have used the power of Government to complete the small portion of the Praya which has now to be provided for and which I deem of great importance for public convenience, salubrity and security - but I am willing that the Governor shall reconsider the question in all its bearings, as it involves controversies seriously affecting the authority of the Government itself.
I have the honor to be,
With the highest respect,
Your most Obedient Humble Servant,
