Banslation 20043.

Mr Doria Leshow. Sept 21. 1871 9973 For Dept. Lisbon Sept 6. 1871 349 '7'

Sir,

In reply to the notes which you addressed to me on the 16th of June & 8th of August last relating to the manner in which the Chinese Emigration is carried on from the port of Macao & in which you forwarded to me two numbers of the "China Mail" giving an account of the horrors to which the Coolie Traffic has given rise, I have the honor to inform you that the Governor of Macao had already by his ordinance of May 27 published in the enclosed Bulletin adopted such measures as appeared to him to be expedient for regulating the Chinese Emigration, with a view to obtaining the greatest certainty as to the spontaneity of the Chinese Emigrants to embark.

The Marine dept not only approved the measures in question by the secret "Portaria"
