"Chest to be reunited, elsewhere.

10. The Commissariat Department to be restructured to have a similar effect as to not re-issuing British money.

The effect of the measure above according to the intention of the Duke of Newcastle would be that any difference in the supply of money would be made up.

subdivisions of the silver Dollar, halves, quarters (with the broken pieces in use among the Chinese this law would of course have nothing to do) would be legally supplied for the present with British Silver: and British Copper, Singapore cents, and Chinese cash would all be legal currency in copper.

As 110 English half pence or 1100 Chinese Cash would be equal to a Dollar or 100 cents, a debt of a cent could be paid.
