Sir

I have the honor to solicit that you will be pleased to sanction the transfer of the sum of Forty pounds (£40.) from the vote for "Paper for Lithograms" to the vote for "Museum Material Stationery and Plants", to enable me to meet the necessary expenditure under this head for the current financial year.1

I have the honor to be

Sir

Your most obedient servant

Ferd. von Mueller,

Govt. Botanist.

The Honorable

the Chief Secretary.
