have had before Them Mr Bramston's letter of the 5th instant enclosing the Draft of an Ordinance to prohibit the un- authorised issue of Notes in Hong Kong.

In reply, I am to request you to inform the

Marquess of Ripon that They concur in the draft Ordinance,

It may however be well, in view of the action of the

Sir,

Your obedient servant,
