THE following correspondence is published for general information, in accordance with instructions from the General Government.
CHARLES BROWN,
Superintendent.
Colonial Secretary’s Office,
Auckland, January 7, 1862.
Sir,—I have the honor to forward for your information the annexed copy of a letter addressed to the Officer Commanding the Militia at Taranaki, and am to request that your Honor will cause the same to be published for general information.
I have, &c.,
H. SEWELL,
Under Secretary.
In the absence of Mr. Fox.
His Honor the Superintendent,
New Plymouth.
Militia Branch, Colonial Secretary’s Office,
Auckland, January, 6, 1862.
Sir,—I am directed to inform you that the Government have had under their consideration the question of the present state of the Militia Force in the Province of Taranaki, and of its future constitution and maintenance, and that although the Government have not yet come to a decision on the subject, they will in all probability do so in the course of the present month. The effect of that decision will probably be an entire organic change in the establishment of the present Taranaki Militia, and a great reduction in its expense. It is intended that all persons able to maintain themselves should be left to their own resources, and that in the case of others, the receipt of pay and rations should be coupled with conditions requiring from such persons effective services in return for the same.
This intimation of the views of the Government is given in order that it may be at once communicated to all persons concerned, both officers and privates, in order that they may be prepared for the impending change which it is likely will take place from the commencement of next month. I am to request you to give immediate publicity to this announcement.
I have, &c.,
W. GISBORNE,
Under Secretary.
Major Herbert,
Commanding Taranaki Militia.
