26.

25. I may add here for Your Lordship's information that the present Blockading Chinese Revenue force consists of four Cruisers and 90 War Junks - a very respectable force - the annual cost of which, independent of the Staff of employés on shore, must amount to a considerable sum.

26. I trust the information contained in this despatch may be found useful, and perhaps it may be thought advisable to send a copy of the within Memorial of Messrs Sassoon & Co to Her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.

I have the honor to be,

My Lord,

Your Lordship's most obedient humble servant

Roderick MacDonnell
