Draft letter dated 4/5 to S.A. submitted stating that the necessary instructions have been given to the Deputy Master and Comptroller.

This paper came with a Treasury letter establishing a Mint at Shanghai (which I am circulating separately). I understand from the Crown Agents that they have already taken steps to buy two-thirds of the silver required for this coinage and that the second instalment of half a million ounces must be procured.
