Acting Colonial Secretary to Officiating Consul, Shanghai

I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 14th instant, and I am directed to point out that it is not a question whether the report in the Courier was correct, but a question whether the Authorities at Shanghai were justified in sending to this Colony sixteen destitute Chinese, who are stated to be bad characters.
