Court Circular and Foreign Office Dispatches Overview
A stock of brief items notes Mons Tricoupi and Sir E C Disbrowe meeting at the Foreign Office on Saturday while de Ghies and Mr Scarlett with Mr Dupuis held a long conference with Mr Spring Rice at the Colonial Office. Dispatches reach the Foreign Office from Sir Robert Adair at Brussels and General Bourke at Sydney with other routine movements including Viscount Althorp arriving at Leamington and Rice moving to Petersham. A proposed cab and omnibus regulator salary of 6001 a year is debunked as false though a street regulation bill was debated in Parliament but was likely abandoned or rejected.
