If subjected to great inconvenience he cannot obtain leave of absence not later than in next April. Perhaps Your Lordship would have the goodness to be informed by telegraph when the new Magistrate may be expected to arrive at Hong Kong. It is very important, especially in the present excited state of the Chinese population, that he should be a thoroughly efficient man.

3. Serious inconvenience is also felt owing to the vacancy which has existed for more than ten (10) months in the office of Superintendent of the Gaol. It would be desirable that I should be informed by telegraph of the date of the probable arrival of the new trained superintendent. We are waiting for his coming to introduce new Regulations and reformatory discipline, based, as far as may be found possible, on the model of the Penal Establishments in England.

I have the honour to be, My Lord,

Your Lordship's Most obedient Humble Servant,

Bowen
