to their respective applications

that both appear to show both candidates are well qualified to fill the appointment.

I have seen both Int. Brine

and Mr Cooper, and are of opinion that either

of

them

would be likely to give satisfaction

in the appointment, but as it appears doubtful whether Mr Brine

could be relieved of

duties before the end

of

his present

the

of

year, whereas Mr. Cooper could

go

out promptly and the latter is also the more robust looking

of

the two, I am disposed to consider him the most-

suitable

Suitable candidate. Subject therefore to his passing a satisfactory medical examination, I beg to submit Mr Cooper's name for the approval of the Secretary

of

State, and I would recommend that whoever is appointed should not receive his appointment

from

the Secretary of

State but

should as is usual in the case

of Engineering and such like appointments, be engaged by us under an agreement entered into in the name of Government.
