alleged smuggling of Opium from Stonecutters to the mainland
of
China, I had the honour to
state
that I should forward,
I should receive it,
the Report of the commission
appointed by the Officers administering the Government of this Colony; the Honourable
F. St. John (C.M.G.) to enquire
into this important subject.
2. I have now the honour
to transmit herewith six printed
copies of the Report of the
Commission which has only
just reached my
hands; having been unavoidably delayed
owing to the necessity of careful
inquiry and of
taking
voluminous evidence.
3. I concur with the practical
suggestions of the Commission
at the close of their Report; and
I recommend them to
Your
Lordship's favourable consideration.
I have the honour to be,
My Lord,
Your Lordship's most obedient
humble Servant,
