The Magistrates.
The absence of Mr. Mercer, Colonial Secretary, at Macao, by reason of ill health prevented a formal meeting of the Executive Council, but I obtained both from Colonel Caine and Mr. Mercer general concurrence in the views set forth in my Circular.
I should be disposed to call your attention to what I deem reprehensible in the conduct of Mr. Mitchell, the Acting Chief Magistrate of Police, did I not expect that the early arrival of Mr. A. J. Davies will relieve the Government from similar embarrassments for the future.
