A circular has been received at Chatham from the
War Department, stating that the Secretary of State
for War has now decided that the cost of transport
shall be included in the Engineer Estimates. At
stations where commissariat or hired transport has
been supplied hitherto the commanding Royal En-
gineer and the senior commanding offiler will con-
fer on the subject, and the former will include in
his estimates for 1863-64, and in those of future
years, the amount which it is considered will be
necessary to meet the cost of such transport as will
be required by their department for the year. The
commanding Royal Engineer will then apportion
the total amount among the several items of his
estimates, showing the nature and amount of trans-
port required for each, and including its estimated
cost in the estimate for each. He will also give at
the end of his estimate an abstract showing the
amount proposed for each item on account of trans-
port and the total amount.
