Having came to this conclusion, their lordships neel nob give any opinion upon the validity of the other grounds on wifelt the Chief Justine bought that Kwok-a-zing ought, on the first bccasion, to be dinobarged. They think, however, it is right to state that they do not agree with the Chii-Justice that the ori deuce before him proved that Le Nouscile Penelope was n slavu ship, and C Kwok-a- sing and the other coolins who acted with him were justified in killing, the captain and the French stilors for the purpose of obtaining their liberty. There was evidence from which it might be inferred that ane of the coolies bad, by frand or by threat on the part of the other Chinese, bean intneed to go to the barra coo6, and cubark on board the skip against their will. They appear, however, all to have professed to the Portuguesa sathorities at Ma. oo that they were willing epigrants; and there was, in their lordship'e opinion, an efficient evidence upon the depositions that either the Portuguese luthoritiós at Macno, or the French osptain and crew, were any parties to compel- ling any of the coolies to leave Obios against their will. Their lordshipa bave next to con.. sider whether the judgment and order of the 22nd of May, 1871, whereby Kwok-a-sing whe, for the second time, discharged from enstody, was valid. He was discharged volely on the ground that ha had been committed a Recond time for the same off ruce, contrary to the 10th evotion of the 31st Charles II., dap. 2. They cannot agree with the construction which the Chief Justice has put apon this section of the stainte. The principal object of the sectio seems to have bácu to prevent persons who had been brought on a writ of habeas corpur, and disobarged on giving buil and outering into their own recognizance, from being "gain arrested for the eame olence, and obliged to us out a second writ of habeas corpus.

There is, no dache, that the extreme generality of the words crimes and offences against the Jaw of Olina" mukee their countraction very dificult. They cannot be intended to mean that every Chinese subject who in proved to have done something which the law of Chinn makes a crime or fence is to be given up to the Chinese Goverment. If this werd the mean ing of the words, every Chincan who had done something which the law of Obina Legals 19 i polītient office, or who had done anything which the Tow of China treats as criminal, though the ben of all European countries treats ita inucent, might giren up. Some limitation, therefore, must be put apour the meening of the words, ned their lordships think that, in determining what this limitation is to, be they ought to bear in mind the position of the colony of Hongtang with reference to China. There was, when the Treaty was medu, a manifest risk that the colony of Hongkong wight became the refure of the criminal class of the city of Cunton and other Chineet towna, and it was impagile that the Cotanid Govern, meas could publia Chinese subjects for sets committed within the territory of China, Having regard to this oljen, their lordships think the words "crimen and offences ought to be influed to those mediory crince and offenose which are punishable by the laws of all nations, wad which are not packfior to the laws of Dolus In the Treaty of Tientain the per- sons to be deliverd up ure described generally na criminale.
