The original text appears to be a letter from Downing Street, dated 5 February 1869. I have reformatted it into HTML using `` tags for paragraphs. I corrected minor errors such as "Iith" to "With", "Earb" to "Earl", "franville" to "Granville", and "Songtory" to "Hongkong". I also removed the initial "Antered 7. C." as it seems unrelated to the rest of the letter and might be an OCR error or a fragment from another document. The original page numbering and layout have been preserved as per the instructions.
