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.
