You will continue as heretofore to correspond with this Office on all matters connected with the British Trade to and from China, or relating to your intercourse with, or local authorities, but I have to request that on the receipt of this despatch, you will no longer keep up a twofold series of despatches, and that instead of designating yourself on the docket of the despatches as "Chief Superintendent" you will merely place your name, "Sir Henry Pottinger".
