Treasurer, to the letter which I addressed to him in pursuance of the instructions conveyed in Your Lordship's Confidential despatch of 26th July last; and I have now the honour to report that the intimations directed in the same despatch have been conveyed to Messrs Wodehouse and May.

In reply to the ninth paragraph of Your Lordship's despatch, I have to state that Alves gave no security, as in the proper discharge of his duties he had nothing whatever to do with the receipt or custody of money. Barradas, late of the Post Office, Hongkong, gave security to the amount of $5,000: steps were taken to put his bond in suit, and on the Attorney General's advice a tender of $2,500 by way of satisfaction of the claim arising on the bond was accepted by my predecessor.
