The considerations raised by this no- tification are not confined to the com- mercial aspect, and some of these we have already touched upon. It might serve to illustrate our meaning if we suppose that the Executive Connel of this Golony called upon the residents here to subsoribe the Hongkong Loan upon the terms above referred to, with the knowledge that those who failed to comply with the broad biot would find that they had made a serious blunder. If we suppose, further, that copies of these documents were seat to Foreigners in all the oast Porta and Inland which is not nearly no tanong a case as that of sending this notice to Anglo-Chinese in the colony with the spoken and unwritten in- tention of coercing them to subsribe, then a glimmering of the audacity of
