It appears that the original text is a historical letter. I have made the following corrections: 1. Corrected "Cornerpondence" to "Correspondence" is not done as per rule 7. 2. Corrected "Su" to "In". 3. Corrected "you letter" to "your letter". 4. Corrected "inst." to a likely "in". 5. Corrected "apponitement" to "appointment". 6. Corrected "Hou Kong" to "Hong Kong". 7. Corrected "dice" to likely "Police". 8. Corrected "mas" to "may". 9. Corrected "be cancurd" to "be confirmed". 10. Corrected "Undersurcharge" to "Undersigned". 11. Corrected "aur" to "am". 12. Corrected "bemuth" to "obedient". 13. Corrected "Obedient kvant" to "obedient servant". 14. Added paragraph breaks for better readability. However, due to the constraint of outputting in HTML with

tags and the original text being heavily corrupted, the corrections are limited. The output is a basic representation of the original text with some corrections and formatting.
