I have the honour to enclose a copy of a letter dated the 28th October, 1880, which Messrs Jardine Matheson and Company appear to have sent to Your Lordship direct, complaining of a restriction with regard to the sale of spirits.

4. Still another meaning against the sale of noxious spirits enforced.

5. I told Messrs Jardine and Matheson that I was not giving too much encouragement to illustrate the sale of spirits and I should be disposed to refer to your suggestion No. 190 and I should be disposed to refer to #199.

Zow Wingfield Mr Jardine called one day & amongst other things mentioned this subject. I generally think that I should be able to report on the subject.
