Summaries of several of the numerous grie- vances which the Mercantile and Chinese Com- munity have given expression to from time to time, and on sundry occasions, commencing as far back as in 1842, are to be found in Dr. Kitel's recently published and most excellent History of Hongkong. (See pages 103, 235, 360-363, 333, 50%, and 574)
A Select Committee of the House of Commons was appointed in March, 1847, to enquire into British commercial relations with China, &c. The evidence and the report are intereating reading, and contain a serious and weighty can- demuation of the administrative policy of the Government of Hongkong of that day,
'The final report of the Parliamentary Com. mittes aged upon the Imperial Government the following, among other recommendations
#That & share in the Administration of the ordinary and local affairs of the Island be given by some system of Municipal Gornament to the British residents.” Dr. Eliel la his very able History of Hong- keng, previously referred to, tays at page 274 -"As to a British Municipal Council, it has to be noted that the history of this period (1873) emphatically contradicts one great objesilon to It, which Sử G. Benham formulated by assert. log that out bere in the East there is no leisured class, and that mon of standing possess neither time nor inclinaton to devote to the Interests of the public. The long continued and varied activity in purely public affales displayed dating this period by Individuals to J. Dent, Ph. Ryrie, J. Whittall, W. Keswick, and others, and most particularly the large share of attention and time which the Hoogkong Chamber of Commerce devoted to questions of general policy riven the be to the assertion that the commercial men of this Colacy ara unwilling to sacrifi their time and their strength to the management of communal affaire,”-
Permanent Officials in Downing Street dislike the growth of any influence calculated to decrease the powers and patronage they have bitherto so long axercised and enjoyed, hence their determined opposition to the British residents here being conceded any skate in the administration of the ordinary and local affairs of the Island, and the cordial support they have received from the Authorities in the Colony. The combined action of the Home and Colonial Officials has, for the present, undoubtedly blocked the progress of our reform movement, which had the support of the vast majority of Hongkong's best men, iclading those who bave a close acquaintance with local needs and requirements. I refer more particularly to men of the calibra of Mr. Thomas Jackson, who was among the first to algn the petition, and who has tendered very important service to the Colony over a long period of years. I well remember bis lolorming me at the time that after careful perusal of the petition he considered it a very moderate and a very able document, and that he did not see how any independent man could have any objection to supporting it.

It is to be regretted that successive Governors bare not deemed it expedient to base their policy on the recommendations of the Parliamentary Committee of 1947, or to adminis ter the Government on popular principles, and to systematically sacifice the Individual views of Departments, which could have been done with advantage to the ratepayers as evidenced during Sir George Bonbum's governor ship, without any sacrifice to the dignity of the Government, The Polley of the Govern mest in connection with Sanitary taalters generally, the Sanitary Board, and its reconstruc flon, is unsausfactory and is in every respect unworthy of an enlightened administration, completely at variance with the spirit of the tidies in which we live and move, and, I believe, contrary to public opinion and to the wishes of the majority of the residents, and absolutely opposed to the Recommendations of the Parliamentary Committee of 1947.

Hoogkoog was created a Crown Colony Io 1841, and Captain Elliot, Its first Adminstrator, wisely and rightly reconised that Hongkong could be made to prosper only by keeping sacredly inviolate its character as a free pert, and by governing the Colonfats on principles of constitutional liberty. Itis to be regretted that Captalo Elliot was called away for other service before he could give full effect to the principles on which he established the Government, and which unfortunately have not been continued.
There are increasing and almost daily proofs of the pressing and absolutely urgent necesity for a form of Government which will yield the British residents some voice in respect of their Communal affairs. Had this been granted in bygone years it is possible that the legacy of
