THOMAS DICK.

(Circular.)

Downing Street, 31st May, 1882.

SIR, I have the honor to transmit to you, for pub-
lication in the colony under your Government, in
such manner as may appear best calculated to secure
general attention, copies of two letters from His
Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, accompanied
by reports of the proceedings which have recently
taken place in this country in connection with the
proposed establishment of a Royal College of Music.
I also enclose copies of a paper explaining the terms
on which it is proposed that scholarships shall be
founded.

It will be perceived that any locality desiring to
promote the objects of the proposed College may do
so by founding one or more scholarships in the
College, for the advantage of persons residing in
such locality, to be competed for under regulations
to be hereafter made; and that private individuals
will be enabled either to found scholarships, and thus
to have the nomination of students from the colony
to which they belong, or simply to contribute to the
general subscription fund.

I have, &c.,
KIMBERLEY.

The Officer Administering the
Government of New Zealand.

H.R.H. the Prince of Wales to the Earl of
Kimberley.

Marlborough House, Pall Mall, S.W.,
25th March, 1882.

MY LORD, I am anxious that no possible steps
should be omitted which may be calculated to bring
the proposal to found a Royal College of Music
under the favourable notice of Her Majesty's sub-
jects in the colonies.

It appears to me that the communication, which I
request you in the accompanying letter to be good
enough to transmit for the information of the
Governments of the various colonies, might advan-
tageously be supplemented by a somewhat more
general distribution within these colonies of the pro-
ceedings which have taken place here in connection
with the movement.

The object of such distribution would be to awaken
public interest among all classes of Her Majesty's
subjects more thoroughly than even proposals on the
part of any of the Colonial Governments to extend
their practical aid are calculated to do.

I have therefore directed further copies of these
proceedings to be transmitted to you, and would again
request that your Lordship will be good enough to
forward these further copies for distribution among
such religious or educational institutions, municipal
or other public bodies, or private persons in the
various colonies as may be thought most likely to
help the project.

I trust that the efforts now being made here may
meet with general support on the part of the clergy
of all denominations in the colonies, and that they,
as well as the heads of colleges and municipal bodies,
may interest themselves in their several localities to
make known the advantages offered by the establish-
ment of the Royal College of Music, and especially
