Gosset to Colonial Office

It would be well to send out the following stores for the
Gosset, Capt. William D.
Treasurycolonial, supplies for
Treasury [of] New Columbia by a vessel now loading; and Colonel Moody has
kindly consented to procure them on his order should this proposal be
approved.

Iron safe or Safes 

Banker's or Mint Scales 

Ledgers, Bankers' paper and a few 

minor articles of ordinary use 

A small quantity of plain fitments
As may be selected

as Engraving the designs (depending on the rates to be established)
takes some time. The presses might go at once. If Registration of
assurances affecting Real Property be intended, deed paper of
uniform size should also be provided forthwith; the essence of
success in the introduction of Registration being in the adoption
of this system at once, before deeds shall have time to multiply
without regard to any system

can be made a source of Revenue, it would of course be desirable to
secure the advantages of those many transactions and transfers which
the eagerness of speculation will produce at the very outset of the
Colonization. The Treasurer being usually the vendor of Stamps, I
have ventured these remarks.
