THE Provisional Committee for promoting the Fevection ofja City Hall in Hongkong, Heairw the cles of the present year, in furthering the to report the progress that has been made, up in object for which they are squinted.
The principal discutie connected with this on- be at once anibble for the purpose, and in the dertaking has been produre site that should gire of Gaverḍment; it, being brious that the present high. Value of Land willin the limits of the City madeft impossible that any sam of mo- noy, which the Commities sold expect to com- cizad, would prove adequats if ground and to be purchased.
Au application for a site at the Western Oor- ner of the Palade Ground, inmediately under Mears, A. Haked & Co.'s Office, was promptly and therally oneeded, but, before any formal grant of the and had been made, it was fortu- ontely discovered the duties, previously thought insuperable, to the pupation of th piece of ground now partially occupied by the Tarbour Master's Office, weia suuruptibia of va moral; and the Commlites have the satisfaction of sturing that a recommandation for grant of ¦ taet site (undoubtedly the most eligible for the purposes of a City Hall in the whole Colony) has, with the approval of the Military Authorities, been forwarded by the local Government to the Scoretary of State for the Coloniss, and thas the position of the Drinking Fountain (pressutad to the City by Mr John Deut, and now in sourse of creation) has been determined with special re- ferengo to the dimensions and situation of the Leposed Building
The space which, is it confidently hoped.-will be thus plaindias the dispoent of the Committee wid enable them to embrace in their scheme the following accommodation
1. A Pablie žal, to be enllad the St. Andrew's Full, in acknowledgment of nanm of Five Thou- sand Dollure, which has been unzed toʻthe undez- taking from the surplus Funds of the late St. An- drew's Selinel. This room will be available for Pablic Meetings, Pattie Dipuers, Balls, Gopearts, and other public purposes.
11. A. Kappor Asom adjoining the Timil, aud whial, together with the all can by useit, whan not specially required Tur cther purposes, as an Exelange.
I A Room for the Chamber of Copunerço, where Bles of Newspapers, Prices Current Boots of Commercial reference and Tolegem will be opened to the use of Subscribers to that Insti tution.
IV. A Public Library for the objects stated by the Trustees of the Morrison Edluontion Society ki their printed Circular of the 1st May last.
V. A pershent Theatre, which will enour- ago visita to Mobgkong by musical and Histrionic artiste from oilier parts of the East, and will ob viate the necessary heavy and unsatisfactory out
ay which the frequent teretion of a temporary Theatre has bitharta entailed.
The remainder of the apace will be alsorbed by the Harlour Mister's Office, which will be remov ed from its prevent position to ous appropriasad for it in the North Ensteru angle of the intended building, in accordance with the proposal sub- mitted by the Cenimittee to Government for pers mission to use the site which that offco at present partially occupies.
