I have to acknowledge the receipt of your Despatch N 156 of
the 23 of May last respecting the System of Land Sales and Mining
Licenses.
I have little doubt that the Despatch from this Office N 62 of
the
7 of May last will have modified
your your views and practice as to
deferred payments. On this subject I can do no more than express my
concurrence in the views entertained by my Predecessor.
