despatch N. 301 of the 20th instant, have transferred Mr. Freire to another Department.

6. It is necessarily a matter for regret that Council was prevented by the death of the late Postmaster General from hearing such explanations as he would have been able to furnish in connection with the duties of Mr. Freire at the Post Office. I may add that it was on Mr. Lister's recommendation that I interdicted Mr. Freire, and that Mr. Lister was of opinion, which has been confirmed by the findings of the Executive Council, that Mr. Freire, as an Audit Examiner, had been guilty of considerable negligence.

I have the honour to be, My Lord, Most Obedient Humble Servant, Your Lordship's Most obedient Servant.
