Sir,

In pursuance

Attorney General's Office, Hongkong 10th June 1856.

I have the honour to report

that the case

of the "Levant" came

on for hearing yesterday before the Justice Hulme on the Vice Admiralty side of the Supreme Court.

As this

was the first case

under the Chinese Passengers'

Act of 1855, and a very aggravated one too, I was not

unnaturally anxious that an example should be made.

The Colonial Secretary
