Auckland, 22nd February, 1876.
To the Honourable the Premier,
Wellington.
In telegram from the Colonial Treasurer of the 18th instant, we are told that the question of the sum of £2,090, required on the 15th instant for educational purposes, such as payment of teachers’ salaries (£1,550), rents of schools, etc., would be brought before the Cabinet yesterday.
As an engagement was entered into by the General Government to pay these amounts, and the non-payment of them is inflicting serious injury on innocent and deserving persons, I earnestly pray that I may be at once informed what the General Government intend to do in this matter.
G. Grey.
