Despatch from London.
No. 99
21 October 1869
Sir,
I have to acquaint you that an application has been received from
the Charge d'Affaires of the North German Confederation at this Court,
for the issue of an Exequatur to Mr. Mathew Trotter Johnston as Consul
for the Confederation at Victoria.
As this Gentleman appears to be resident in the Colony under your
Government, I have to instruct you to report to me whether you are
aware, or not, of any objection to his appointment, and if not, you will
recognize him provisionally in that capacity until the arrival of the
Exequatur.
