I have the honor to inform you that I have received a despatch from
the Governor of Newfoundland on the subject of the establishment of
Telegraphic communication between that Province and British Columbia.
I take this opportunity of informing you that Governor Musgrave
states that for the present he considered Halifax as the best terminus
for Telegraphic Messages to and from Europe.
I have the honor to be
Sir,
Your most obedient
humble servant Edward Cardwell
