Mr Elliot
Will you look at the enclosed Circular which it is proposed to send to B. Columbia, Van Couver Island & the Falklands. To no one of the three Colonies does it appear to me to be applicable.

As the former Circular of the 1st of January 1863
was sent to them the respective Governors ought of course
to have replied to it, tho' they could not supply any
information—but we can scarcely ask Colonies situated as
they are (one dependent on the funds of this Country, and
the other two in their infancy) how it happens that there
are no Hospitals or Asylums. See last paragraph.
