Both items, however, fail to afford anything like an approximation to the real amount, as other vessels owned by or consigned to the principal Merchants of the Colony, from whom no returns can be obtained, the Port being entirely free, are also employed in the freight of both Grain and Treasure.
15. [Page 137] Remunerative employment to the tradesmen and artisans of the Colony. I am informed that, during the past year, not less than 30,000 Chinese embarked hence for San Francisco, whose passage money, at the rate of $50 per head, would give a sum of $1,500,000 to Shipowners and consignees per annum.
17. The trade with California (12, 18) continues with undiminished activity, and the supply of different articles for that market has afforded constant and remunerative employment to the tradesmen and artisans of the Colony. Merchants resident at the Colony, I beg to annex the customary annual report of the Junk Trade of the Colony.
