in Council, I shall report upon it. I need hardly say the fee will be determined, as in the Rum Distillery case, on the basis of what is just, looking to the quantity to be distilled, to its quality and its price.

SIR,

C. O. 97: 442

CHINA SUGAR REFINING Co., (LIMITED)

Hongkong, 12th August, 1880.

The License which has been granted to Mr. HENRY DICKIE, Manager for this Company, for distilling, specifies for only the years situated upon Marine Lot No. 231.

It is the desire of the Company to carry on the business of Distillation also in their premises situated upon part of Inland Lots 749, 781 and 782, hitherto known as the Hongkong Distillery, and we beg to be informed whether the License, now issued in name of Mr. DICKIE, can be transferred so as to enable the Company to distil in the last named premises. If not, we beg to request that His Excellency the Governor will grant a License to this Company, authorising them to do so, or if it cannot be granted in name of the Company, then in that of their Manager Mr. HENRY DICKIE.

We have the honor to be, The Honorable, FREDERICK STEWART, L. L. D. Acting Colonial Secretary.

Sin,

(Signed) Sir, Your most obedient Servants, JARDINE, MATHESON & Co. General Agents.

On 12th curt, we had the honour of transmitting to you, for submission to His Excellency the Governor, our application for an extension of the existing license, to distil spirits, held by Mr. DICKIE, the Manager of the Company.

No communication in reply has, as yet, reached us from you, and, as the delay is beginning to cause serious inconvenience at the works, we venture to request that the matter may receive His Excellency's early attention.

We have the honour to be, The Honourable FREDERICK STEWART, L. L. D. Acting Colonial Secretary.
