In the next examination the limits of age are changed from 16-28 to 16-35.

C.Pd. 54.10.77

Her Britannic Majesty's Government

4 young men in the Colony, no doubt British subjects whether born a Chinese, a European half-caste,

appointments mostly under £200 a year = $1,360

are already chiefly filled by Chinese there for this purpose.

I am obliged for the answers to my question.

I am not much taken by either scheme, though I do not know that there is ground for objection. Its operation will be watched.

I hold by Mr. Braddon's view that it is not the method of selection only, not the merits of its offers.

Lions Carnarvon.

Oct 31.

1. The Government appoints to places under £100 and subjects approve to places under £200. Most of these, 24, are filled by them.

The Portuguese think it will affect the sectionals. These minor officers have the principal share in the police work now.

2. The scheme depends on a regulation by law for work on the same authority: the reply might be considered.

3. Is answerable. Cadine.
