Sir: -

I have the honour to transmit herewith copies of

correspondence with the Governor of Hongkong, together

with the translation of the Imperial Edict referred to, by

which all officially managed telegraphs throughout the

Provinces have been placed under the control of the Board

of Communications.

It will be observed that the line from Canton to

Hongkong is amongst those which have been thus transferred

to the Board.

(Signed)

I have, &c.,

J. N. Jordan,

The Right Honourable

Sir Edward Grey, Bart., M.P.,

&C.,
