The able to measure it and the evils from everywhere are diminished. The habit will be greatly diminished. One will be grateful for the favour bestowed in prohibiting the sale of opium, and I think that other countries which produce it will follow the good example spread by them.

It is shunned because of its injurious effects. Even those few consumers who are rich are also much hampered by the habit and loathe it accordingly.

All Asiatics are altogether affected by it. The sale of them should be prohibited and the ill effects arising from it will leave no harm. The substitute for it should be removed.

There is any ill feeling against England required to be removed.

Europeans and Asiatics who contract the habit are equally affected. Those who continue to live here are more able to break the habit. Opium consumers commence out of curiosity and to amuse themselves, and the habit is gradually and imperceptibly contracted. I have never heard that those who have Rheumatism or malaria contracted the habit desire without exception to break it.

I give my humble opinion on your subject, and I submit them to your judgment.
