No. 52, Financial

Referring to my Despatch No 50 dated 12th July 1866 by this Mail, I
have the honor to transmit extracts from local newspapers containing
a report of, and comments upon, proceedings of the Legislative
Assembly in reference to my Message dated 6th July 1866.

Beyond the account contained in these extracts I have no information
of the nature of the reply which was thus proposed to be given to my
Message after a lapse of seven days from its receipt by the Assembly.
