should be rendered to the Chinese Govt. in respect of the prisoner, considerations arise.

An 1884 Special directions were given by Secretary of State for Colonies on the proof of the guilt of the Hal- the prisoner. He should be satisfied as much as the Executing "Colonial" Connul. These instructions carried out and the bamat appear to have made very full inquiry and to have considered the evidence given on behalf of the prosecution and the accused. They received also the assistance to be derived from the advice of the Attorney General, and the result of the Council, one member dissentient, was the conclusion that the "proof of guilt is not on the whole satisfactory to our minds".

We feel great difficulty in advising that this should be refuted. We do not feel competent to review the decision given by the members.
