series of somewhat sharp

criticisms

followed

of

my

statement in

the 3rd of June, about

the progress and prosperity of

the Colony.

2.

I now venture to

lay before Your Lordship

an article from the "Hongkong

Telegraph"

of the 21st instant, and I do so not

because it is written in a

somewhat more friendly

spirit

just to the Government

but because it refers to some other

newspaper articles supporting the

view

I

put forward that the

important commercial changes taking

place in Hong Kong

are not

wholly detrimental to the real interests of the local foreign trader, but that,

in fact,

in these matters Native

and Foreign interests are one.

I have the honor to be,

My Lord.

Your Lordship's Most Obedient

humble Servant,
