Superintendent of Police, that it is not necessary to maintain the Staff of European Clerks at the same numerical standard.

Subject to Your Lordships' approval, therefore, I have abolished the title of Paymaster, and have sanctioned the post of 1st Clerk, Mr Collage, and the 2nd Clerk, Mr Blackwood, drawing an increase of £50 each on their former rate of Salary.

This is in accordance with the Estimates for this Year and I trust will be duly sanctioned.

I have the honour to be, My Lord, Your Lordships' obedient, humble Servant, W. T. Bridges, Acting Administrator, for A. Kennedy.
