PRESENTATION OF AN ADDRESS TO HIS EXCELLENCY THE ADMINISTRATOR.
On the 29th ult. an address was presented to His Excellency the Administrator, the Hon. W. H. Marsh, C.M.G., at Government House. The presentation was made by the Hon. P. Ryrie, who was accompanied by upwards of eighty of the signatories, representatives of every class and nationality in the Colony being present.
Hon. P. RYRIE, in making the presentation, said—Your Excellency, the pleasing duty has been assigned to me of presenting to you a numerously signed address from the community of this Colony. When I state that this has been a spontaneous movement on the part of all classes in the colony, I state what is absolute fact. I believe that I may be considered the oldest British resident in the Colony, and during the period of my stay here, I have taken part in a good many demonstrations of this kind, and I can truly say that I have never seen more anxiety displayed by its inhabitants to testify by their signatures the feelings they entertained of your high abilities as the head of its executive. (Applause). The address, as you will observe, is numerously signed by all nationalities, but there are still a number of gentlemen anxious to join it who from press of time have not had an opportunity of doing so. With your kind permission their signatures can be appended hereafter. (Applause.) I shall now, with your permission, proceed to read the address:
To HIS EXCELLENCY THE HONOURABLE WILLIAM HENRY MARSH, C.M.G., THE OFFICER ADMINISTERING THE GOVERNMENT OF HONGKONG, &c., &c., &c.
SIR, We, the undersigned non-official members of the Legislative Council, Justices of the Peace, Members of Professions, Merchants, Bankers, and Residents in Hongkong, desire to convey to Your Excellency on the approaching termination of your Administration of the affairs of the Colony an expression of our esteem and regard as well as of our sense of the admirable and effective manner in which you have discharged the duties of your high position.
The vigour which has been displayed in every department of your Government, the introduction of numerous measures of useful legislation, and the rapidity with which urgently required public works have been promoted and pushed forward within the short period during which you have held office, make evident to us the eminent capacity for affairs which you possess, while the equal administration of executive authority dispensed by you without fear or favour and with a steadfast regard to the public welfare has inspired all classes of our mixed population with complete confidence in the firmness and justice of your rule.
You have made Government House the centre of social attraction by the liberal and graceful hospitality which has been accorded to the community.
We are pleased to learn that the Public Service of the Colony will not be deprived for some time to come of your valuable co-operation and that you will resume your former post as Colonial Secretary. We trust that when you do leave us it will be on the occasion of your appointment to higher office under the Crown to which your long and able public career have so well qualified you.
With the assurance of our profound respect. We have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient servants,
