consideration of Sir Stichara Macdonnell, who, however, was unable to perfect schemes owing to the short time at his disposal before leaving the Colony.

I have now, therefore, to submit for Your Lordships' approval the Report of a Committee appointed in 1870, which very fully deals with the position of affairs.

I have myself inspected the Hospital, and am satisfied that it is necessary to take measures for erecting a new building. The present site, though possessing many advantages, is not only too small, but is in such close proximity to the Lock Hospital, (a building upon which a considerable sum of money has lately been spent) that it would be highly objectionable to rebuild on it.

3. Under these circumstances I am forced into the opinion that it will be necessary for the Colony to resume, at a reasonable cost, what appear to be the only lots available for the purpose. From the report it will be seen that Lots are, as indicated on Plan No. 42 in Clerk's Office, near to the present Hospitals, and I shall briefly indicate the advantages of occupying them for the Colonial Medical
