I am directed to forward to you a copy of a report from the Emigration Commissioners upon the subject of Chinese emigration, and to request that you will lay these papers before the Earl of Clarendon.

The accompanying copy of a report from the Emigration Commissioners contains the heads of the regulations which the Commissioners would recommend to be established for the ships of all nations taking Chinese emigrants from Hong Kong, and for British ships taking Chinese emigrants from any such port.

This report, from which Sir George Grey sees no reason to dissent, also describes in Paragraph 18 the substance of the Act of Parliament which would appear to the Commissioners requisite for carrying their suggestions into effect.

I am desired to add that the remark made by the Commissioners in Paragraph 6, to the effect that the regulations of the British Government, if made too stringent, may end in driving the trade into the hands of other nations, is particularly worthy of note.
