The perusal of the report, to which the foregoing remarks exclusively apply, has suggested to the President that the evils, described by the Colonial Surgeon as arising in Hong Kong from the absence of sanitary administration in that island, are such as may with great probability be supposed to exist more or less in all colonial towns, and of course principally in those where the increase of population has proceeded with rapidity; and the President desires me to suggest for the consideration of Sir H.
