The objects and ressons attached to the Bill state-Up to recently Hongkong copper coin was at a vary large discount but recent measures for redemption hand Hill District during the month of Doros,--Fan Kat reduced it to a figure which it is considered cannot be further reduced without legis Istion on account of the free circulation of foreign coins. As the discount causes great hardship to many businesses in the Colony and as the amount of Hongkong coin in circulation and in stock at the present time is estimated to be no more than is required for the needs of the Colony, opportunity is now taken to prohibit the circulation of foreign coins. It is believed that, with the successful operation of this Bill, the coin in question will rise, almost if not quite, to par. The principle of the Bill has been owicon | approved, by residents representing all sections of the business community."
