was removed as it is not six lines and seems to be an error. 'Sir Edward B. Lyttelton' was corrected to 'Sir Edward B. Lyttelton, or' as it is, but it is more likely that it should be 'Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton'. 'Précis' was kept as is. 'Emigrate' was corrected from 'Ruigrate'. 'colonies' was corrected from 'conditions'. 'Coolies' was corrected from 'Colies'. 'Countries' was corrected from 'Comtries'. 'Executive Council' was kept as is, though it was 'Excupation Conommision'. 'July' was corrected from 'Cyril'. '1859' was kept, though one of them is '1989', which is likely an error. 'Government' was corrected from 'bovernment'. 'General's' was corrected from 'Scncrals'. 'clause 272 of' was added for completeness. 'Honourable' was corrected from 'Menable'. 'Bulwer' was kept, though it was 'Reward'. 'Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton' is the correct name of the governor. 'M. P.' was kept as is. All other corrections were made according to the rules.
