NOTE:-Prior to July, 1867, (C.S.O. 1723) reports of Piracy were sent to the Harbor Master, or Registrar General and Magistrates, besides being received at this Office. The above returns therefore previous to July 1867 include those only that are on record at this Office, and amount, probably, to only half the real number of piracies reported in the Colony previous to that date.
Hongkong, 21st September, 1869.
