No. 60 6096, CO 60/44, p. 76; received 20 June 17th May 1871 My Lord,

I have the honor to transmit to Your Lordship certain Resolutions purporting to have been passed at "Public Meetings" held at the Village of "Lilloett" and "Lytton," and places called "BuonaparteHouse House" and "Hat Creek House" on Buonaparte River, censuring the conduct of the Legislative Council in respect of the Civil List Act, 1871, and praying that Her Majesty will not assent to that measure.

2. The prominent agents on these occasions were the same persons Mr Humphreys and Mr McKay who were the leaders at theassemblage assemblage at Yale, referred to in my Despatch No 50, of 20th April, and the "Meetings," if I may judge from the Reports in the Newspapers, have consisted of some six or eight persons at the Drinking Bars of wayside Public Houses.

3. Attempts to get up demonstrations of the same kind at New Westminster and Cariboo failed to obtain any support; and of FourNewspapers Newspapers published in the Colony, only one "the Victoria Standard" has opposed the measure. The Editor of that Paper, Mr De Cosmos, being the political associate of Mr Humphreys and Mr McKay.

4. I regard the opposition as quite unimportant and even the endeavour to make political capital for theensuing ensuing elections in which it originates will probably be unsuccessful.

I have the honor to be, My Lord, Your most obedient Humble Servant A. Musgrave
