attention of the Attorney General, and also of the adviser to the

Secretary of State who specially referred to the other amendment to

the section in one of his despatches. It is an oversight, which

has been put straight. (ii) the errors in the references to

certain Ordinances, as you say "at once" discovered by the Attorney

General and the Crown Solicitor, and one other which I have also

discovered, are not vital, and can at once be corrected. So far as

the one discovered by the Colonial Secretary in the head-line of No. 10 of 1899, when a perfect compositor has been invented such slips will not occur; till that time they are inevitable.

(iii) The Colonial Treasurer's minute.

(a). The slip in the figures in No. 1 of 1888 will be

corrected at once.

(b). Nos. 6 of 1889 and 11 of 1906; the Treasurer did

say he thought these Ordinances were dead, but I do not agree with

him, and did not choose to take the responsibility of repealing

them. I commend to his notice s.ll of the former Ordinance; he

will then see his mistake. With regard to the latter I do not know

whether there are any pensions still payable; if there are the

Ordinance should not be repealed.

(c). No. 6 of 1901. The Treasurer thinks it is "almost

certain" he gave me the amended figures. I really cannot recollect If he did I was wrong in overlooking them. But if he did not his remark that *s. 31 anyway should have suggested examination" is

simply preposterous.

(d). No. 5 of 1909. The Treasurer is quite wrong.

(iv) The Attorney-General's memorandum. Many of the errors he has detected seem to be in the Corrigenda, and I will go through them

in due course. His "error No. 46" is however meaningless, 28

there is no "No. 24 of 1904". His "error No. 51* is merely borrow-

-ed from a minute of my own suggesting that all references to the Empire of China would have to be revised when the New Govern- -ment is recognised. It is of course a pity that I did not know that the Revolution would be successful when I was revising

that
