Extract from Mr Consul Macgregor's letter N 118, dated Cantów, of th December, 1846, to His Excellency Sir John Francis Davis, Baronel; 4, 4, tel

"With regard to buntow, I would remarks, that the greatest proportion of the goods intended for this market are warehoused at Hongkong, and only sent over when they have been actually sold here,

or

our n

offer a fair prospect of a prompt sale . This affords merchants the facility of deferring the payment of duty until the period of importation, although till then the goods are subject to the charge of

warehouse rent."
