My Lord:-

I have the honour to inclose herewith a trans-

lation of the agreement, respecting the proposed rail-

way between Canton and Macao.

Your Lordship will therefrom see that China

has succeeded in obtaining from Portugal terms more

favourable to herself, than she has found it possible

to secure from other negotiators of contracts of a

similar nature.

I have, &c.,

(Signed)

J. W. Jamieson.

Commercial Attaché.
