I have the honour to report that I have been urged by the public to register parcels by the absence of facilities for obtaining stamps at the Registration and Parcels branch of the General Post Office,

I have appointed an assistant for the purpose on a salary of $12 per month, and I trust that you will see no objection to the new appointment.

I have the honour to be,

Your most obedient humble servant,

W. Robinson

Lord Selborne.

Inform Mr. Perry that the Government cannot entertain his case, that the conditions of sale were not complied with, and that he has no claim to compensation.

We need not perhaps raise the point whether he had any authority for speculating in land, seeing that he was lost.
