My Lord,

My attention was called by Communication from Mr Consul Warren of Manila, dated 20th June last, to the Operation of the Chinese law upon the Emigration of Chinese to the Philippine Islands.

I referred the question to the Law Officers for their opinion thereon, which General Opinion I conveyed to Mr Vice Consul.

I have received in consequence two despatches from Mr Morrison, dated 12th inst., one of which Encloses a letter from the Acting Governor F. D. Syme also, who are interested in Emigration.

I have written this day to Mr Morrison on the subject of his despatches.
