I see no objection to this proposal, provided the college would in return for the Colonial grant consent to the nomination by this Government of pupils from time to time for education as Interpreters. In such case I would even recommend a larger grant than £40, as the Colonial Government have at all times the greatest difficulty in finding efficient interpreters for the different Departments. I may mention that at the present time the Office of Interpreter to the Supreme Court with Salary of £400 is vacant, and I see no immediate prospect of being able to fill it.

I have the honor to be,

My Lord Duke, Your Grace's Most obedient Servant,
