I am informed, conveyed to Swatow, to be embarked from that
Port. The Consul for the Netherlands is likely to be
stricter in his examinations than any other, since the
coolies would be destined frequently for Deli, but even
in this case,
and in spite of the fact that the Netherlands
bear a high reputation in general for the treatment of
emigrants a regular emigration is reported to have sprung
up from Hongkong to Deli via Swatow, the part of the journey
from Swatow to Deli being made in foreign vessels.

In these circumstances I would
ask Your Lordship's consideration of the request to
remove the restrictions complained of.

I have the honour to be,
My Lord,
Your Lordship's most obedient,
humble servant,
Mangany
Governor,&c..
