Sir,
I have received your Despatch of the 6th of June No. 16, forwarding an authenticated copy of an Ordinance passed by the Legislature of British Columbia entitled "An Ordinance to amend Customs Duties."
As I collect from your statement that it is possibleIManuscript image I may receive from Vancouver Island some Representation adverse to the 4th Clause of this Act I think it proper to wait a short time before expressing any opinion upon it.
I have the honor to be
Sir,
Your most obedient
humble servant
