regretted that it was only my own good faith to the Minister

ng in keeping him informed of what I was doigk which caused

them to be revealed to me.

As a general proposition it is hardly necessary to refer

even to the fact, which is so much emphasised in the des-

patch under reply, that if the Foreign Office is asked for

its opinion as to the appointment of an Adviser to a Foreign

Government it is entitled to express that opinion in good

faith. That is what Sir Julian Pauncefote did when he

nomi na ted me to the Japanese "overnment. In view of the

depreciatory tenour of the despatch under reply I am entitled

to know what it is which has caused a different reply to be

prepared in the event of the Chinese Government asking

advice on the subject with regard to myself, and why the

Foreign Office has made sufh naste to prevent if possible my

obtaining the appointment.

has now been adopted which I most strongly recent. On the

two Ex occasions when I had the honour to work for the

Foreign Offife that work was more than satisfactorily per-

formed; beyond that the Pecretary of State for Foreign Af-

faire knows little or nothing of my work, and he has been

contented to accept the opinion of some persons in the Office

who can be but imperfectly acquainted with my qualifications.

But the despatch under reply ignores entirely the main

ground of my protest, which is this - that the instructions

to his Majesty's Minister, although they were confidential

and were only to be acted on should occasion arise ( an
