It would be waste of time and space to speculate on what the Commission will do, what it should do, and what it should not do. The Commission is composed for the most part of gentlemen of wide experience who have. very large Interests at stake in the colony, who can be relied on to leave no stone unturned to master the subject thoroughly and make suggestions calculated to result in permanent benefit to the colony, and to whom in virtue of their long residence in the East and their wide knowledge of the commercial, social, and political affairs of Hongkong-the tendering of advice would be as ussieas as the transportation of Tonkin coal to Cardiff or the shipment of Mongolian sheep' to Australasia:
