Sir,
I have the honor to transmit to you, for your information, a copy of
a despatch from Sir James Douglas and a copy of the answer which I have
addressed to Governor Kennedy.
You will see that independently of the subjectof
of the Civil List,
which of course is confined to Vancouver Island, Sir James Douglas
raises in his despatch the more general question of the union of both
Colonies under one Governor, though with some distinct administrative
Departments.
