"Vortaria" of the 19th of August last, as Fan informed by the kinds of that sep, but the said Governor was likewise instructed to adopt any measures that may be necessary for the purpose of providing for the liberty of the Emniy and protecting them against any ill-treatment by any Fon or coercion caused by any decision they may have unwillingly taken, be in fine offeresowing them from ill-treatment during the voyage & he was at the same time enjoined to repress with the full rigour of the law any aberser that might be opposed to this consideration for the parties object, without any that might be responsible for them.

The theme in which is enclosed herewith to you is an Extract from several despatches addressed to the Marine Dept by the Governor of Macao under dates of the 17th, 25th & 26th of April of this year, not only concerning the proceedings in the Court of Justice of Hongkong towards one of the coolies shipped out on the French ship "La Nouvelle Vénélope" but also regarding the groundless accusations adduced in that colony against the Chinese Emigration from the Port of Macao.

From the information contained in that Memo, you will perceive that the Emigration from the said Port is carried on more illegally than it has been at any time & that there would be stronger grounds for complaining against the manner in which the Emigration Regulations are carried out there.
