Referring to Your Lordship's Circular Despatch of the 
30
                  September, respecting the mode of appointment to Public Offices,
               in which you request to be informed whether I see any objection
               to the adoption
of
 of the Rule which Your Lordship proposed for the
               future, I have the honor to report that I am not aware of any
               reason why that rule should not be established. The Offices in
               respect of which it is still intended to issue Warrants include
               all which could possibly require the formal authority for appointment.
