the Opiums Farmer or his agents of smug“ gling. Some two months ago a quantity of prepared opium was seized on board one of their stoamors by the captain, of the vestal, This optum was traced to phe of the Far mer's boiling establishments. Of course it is possible, as Mr Listor suggested, that some outsider wont to the shop and purobased, the drug butas the pries of prepared opium bought from the Farmer in Hongkong la higher that the price in Macro and Canton, there does not aoans to be much temptation for an outsider to smuggle. Hoaring, by some means or other, of the seizure made by the captain of the steamer, the officers of the Opiam Farmer arrived on the quae, claimed the opium and actually charged the captain, because he did not hand it over at i once, with being in unlawful possession of | prepared opluni. The Farmer contended
that, having a monopoly of prepared opium' ia the Colony, all quantities thereof seized belonged to him. It was doubtless mainly with regard to this contention Mr Ryrie wished to be supplied with the papers relat HESE SOAPS, being specially prepared ing to the Farmer's agreement.
