However, to follow the instructions more closely and improve readability, here is a revised version with proper Markdown formatting and corrections: ## Occasion The painting to Garrild suggests that China should take the opportunity of having a proper coinage; and if things Chang have on a want: duties paid in gold," he should have a gold coinage to start with, so that the duties paid in the coin may be of the country. The question of transit dues seems to be more important together with import duties. As I understand, there is a Customs Imperial Exchequer and provincial Exchequers, and the difficulties to be met are not so much at the Treaty Ports where Sir Robert Hart is in charge as inland. ## Submission I only suggest that this letter be submitted to Lord Salisbury, noting that in M. Chamberlain's letter to Chang aut Junion, it has been made clear that it would be desirable to anticipate the possible revision of 98 by a thorough revision now instead of adopting any temporary expedients. The Chinese government should be invited to consider: the desirability of adopting a gold standard and a new coinage if the duties are to be paid on a gold basis, and that transit dues and exactions should receive special attention. ## Currency Matters 27. C.PL Oct 127 I submit the above with some hesitation as I know little or nothing of currency matters. Sir R. Hart thinks it not out of the question to suggest a gold standard for China. It would be as unfair as fronting iniquity. A silver standard for the listed state presented in a revolution. It would be a robbing of the debtor, whereas Bryan's intention was the amiable intention of robbing the rich. ## Further Thoughts LY fir inte Thinke hose last pl to Lucas mush Aget that an...
