This would naturally explain the curious facts that, when 8 bis first lotter spoke of the Treaty he proceeded to quate the Hongkong Ordinance, and then in his second letter he refers to a 2pm-Auction of Household Furniture, Treats and forthwith quotes the Macao &c., at No. 2, Lower Mosque Terrace.Ordinance.
