Sargeaunt to Rogers (Permanent Under-Secretary)

I have the honor to transmit to you, for the information
of the Duke of Newcastle, copy of a letter from the Colonial
Secretary of British Columbia, advising the Crown Agent for
the Colonies of his having drawn a further sum of £5000 on
account of the £50,000 Loan of 1863, and I have to request
that you will furnish me with His Grace's authority for
accepting the Bills for the same.
