I have the honor to forward an Authenticated and two plain Copies of an Ordinance of the recent Session of the Legislature of this Colony, entitled; No. 5. An Ordinanceto to encourage the construction of a Line of Telegraph, connecting the Telegraphs of British Columbia with the Telegraph Lines of Russia, the United States and other Countries, and for other purposes. I add the Report of the Attorney General.

2. This Act was introduced by my direction to carry out the terms offered to the Collins Telegraph Company in SirFrederick Frederick Roger's letter to Mr Collins of 14th January 1864. The Company not being represented in the Colony at the time of the passing of the Ordinance, certain alterations were made in the Bill during its discussion in the House, but the Ordinances No. 18 of the 3rd of April, and No. 28 of the 11th of April, * give further aid to the Collins Telegraph Company, and places them in a position with which they are satisfied.

I I have the honor to be, Sir, Your most obedient humble Servant Frederick Seymour
