MS not found; the text given here is from Victoria Government gazette, 2 August 1859, p. 1613 (B59.08.03). The register of the Chief Secretary's inward correspondence includes an entry dated 28 July 1859 for a letter from M regarding 'Notice for Gazette Blue Gum Trees for Public Plantations'. That letter, which has not been found, clearly related to the present item; almost certainly, M would have been seeking permission to have the notice published in the Government gazette. See No. 7579, vol. 1859 M, VPRS 1168 inward correspondence registers, VA 475 Chief Secretary's Department, Public Record Office, Victoria.
Melbourne Botanic and Zoologic Garden,
28th July, 1859.
NOTICE.
On early application to the Government Botanist's Office, a number of young Blue Gum trees can be supplied for public plantations.
FERD. MUELLER.
