Tonnage Dues. \n\nEvery English merchantman, on entering any one of the above-mentioned five ports, shall pay tonnage-dues at the rate of five mace per register-ton, in full of all charges. The fees formerly levied on entry and departure, of every description, are henceforth abolished. \n\nVI. Import and Export Duties. \n\nGoods, whether imported into, or exported from, any one of the above- charged according mentioned five ports, are henceforward to be taxed according to the Tariff as to tariff, and to be now fixed and agreed upon, and no further sums are to be levied beyond subject to no other those which are specified in the Tariff. All duties incurred by an English merchant-vessel, whether on goods imported or exported, or in the shape of tonnage-dues, must first be paid up in full; which done, the Superintendent of Customs will grant a port-clearance, and this being shown to the British Consul, he will thereupon return the ship's papers, and permit the vessel to depart. \n\nVII. Goods to \n\nbe examined by Custom-house \n\nVII. Examination of Goods at the Custom-house. \n\nEvery English merchant, having cargo to load or discharge, must give due intimation thereof, and hand particulars of the same to the Consul, who will immediately dispatch a recognized linguist of his own establishment to officer, in presence communicate the particulars to the Superintendent of Customs, that the goods may be duly examined, and neither party subjected to loss. The English merchant must also have a properly qualified person on the spot to attend to his interests when his goods are being examined for duty; otherwise, should there be complaints, these cannot be attended to. \n\nof merchant's \n\nagent. \n\nRegarding such goods as are subject by the Tariff to an ad valorem duty; Disputes regarding value for ad valorem if the English merchant cannot agree with the Chinese officer in fixing a duties, how settled., value, then each party shall call two or three merchants to look at the goods, and the highest price at which any of these merchants would be willing to purchase, shall be assumed as the value of the goods. \n\nTare how fixed. \n\nAppeal to Consul where disputes can- not otherwise be settled. \n\nVIII. Duties to \n\nshroffs. \n\nTo fix the tare on any article, such as tea; if the English merchant cannot agree with the Custom-house officer, then each party shall choose so many chests out of every hundred, which being first weighed in gross, shall after- wards be tared, and the average tare upon these chests shall be assumed as the tare upon the whole; and upon this principle shall the tare be fixed upon all other goods in packages. \n\nIf there should still be any disputed points which cannot be settled, the English merchant may appeal to the Consul, who will communicate the par- ticulars of the case to the Superintendent of Customs, that it may be equitably arranged. But the appeal must be made on the same day, or it will not be regarded. While such points are still open, the Superintendent of Customs will delay to insert the same in his books, thus affording an opportunity that the merits of the case may be duly tried and sifted. \n\nVIII. Manner of Paying the Duties. \n\nIt is hereinbefore provided, that every English vessel that enters any one be paid to licensed of the five ports, shall pay all duties and tonnage-dues before she be per- mitted to depart. The Superintendent of Customs will select certain shroff's, or banking establishments, of known stability, to whom he will give licences, authorizing them to receive duties from the English merchants on behalf of Government, and the receipt of these shroffs for any moneys paid them shall In the paying of these duties, be considered as a Government voucher. different kinds of foreign money may be made use of; but as foreign money is not of equal purity with sycee silver, the English Consuls appointed to the different ports will, according to time, place, and circumstances, arrange with \n\nbe \n\nPayment may made in foreign \n\nmoney. \n\nthe Superintendents of Customs at each, what coins may be taken in payment, Per centage on and what per centage may be necessary to make them equal to standard or foreign money, how pure silver. \n\nIX.

In case of any dispute arising between British merchants and Chinese officers of Customs, regarding the weights or measures of goods, reference shall be made to these standards, and disputes decided accordingly. \n\nX. Lighters or Cargo Boats. \n\nWhenever any English merchant shall have to load or discharge cargo, he may hire whatever kind of lighter or cargo-boat he pleases, and the sum may be engaged as \n\nX. Any boats to be paid for such boat can be settled between the parties themselves, with lighters, without out the interference of Government. The number of these boats shall not be limited, nor shall a monopoly of them be granted to any parties. If any \n\nlimit or monopoly. smuggling take place in them, the offenders will of course be punished according to law. Should any of these boat-people, while engaged in con- veying goods for English merchants, fraudulently abscond with the property, the Chinese authorities will do their best to apprehend them; but, at the same time, the English merchants must take every due precaution for the safety of their goods. \n\nXI. Transshipment of Goods. \n\nlicence. \n\nNo English merchant-ships may transship goods without special per- mission: should any urgent case happen where transshipment is necessary, ments only to be XI. Transship- the circumstances must first be submitted to the Consul, who will give a cer- made with special tificate to that effect, and the Superintendent of Customs will then send a special officer to be present at the transshipment. If any one presumes to transship without such permission being asked for and obtained, the whole of the goods so illicitly transshipped will be confiscated. \n\nXII. Subordinate Consular Officers. \n\nPakers \n\nXII. Subordinate \n\nAt any place selected for the anchorage of the English merchant-ships, there may be appointed a subordinate Consular officer, of approved good officers may be conduct, to exercise due control over the seamen and others. He must appointed at the exert himself to prevent quarrels between the English seamen and natives, shipping. this being of the utmost importance.

After the most deferential consideration of this opinion, the West India body do not see reason to entertain any doubt upon either of these points, if free intercourse were permitted. Agreeing with your Lordship as to the important moral effect which may be produced by even a limited immigra- tion, they have not confined their expectations of relief to any definite addition to the agricultural population. They have always contemplated the general influence of a continuous immigration as the principal means to which they could trust for restoring beneficial cultivation, and they conceive that desirable object might be speedily attained. But for the prohibitions laid upon proprietors, it would probably have been already accomplished by their individual exertions; and still more cer- tainly if a system of immigration, combining limited contracts and modified bounties, had been early adopted. The only colony in the West Indies which has received a regular influx of suitable immigrants, though they have come chiefly from the other islands, is Trinidad, and there the consequences have been remarkable, The decline of the cultivation has never been nearly so great as in Jamaica or Guiana; and according to the progressive accession of labourers has been the progressive restora- tion of production. As regards the expense of procuring this accession, it will be found that the colony has actually received in augmented revenue alone, arising from duties on exports and imports attributable to the immigrants, more than the amount of bounties paid for those whose labour can be included in the estimate. It is nevertheless true that Trinidid still suffers severely from an insufficiency of labour. The first effect of immigration is, of course, to stay decline; but, even after it has been extensive enough to cause a partial recovery, the expense of cultivation \n\nmay, as in this case, absorb all the produce, and no clear income can be expected to accrue until the available population and fixed capital shall be brought into just proportion, and competition for employment made to take the place of competition for labour. In Mauritius, the only colony to which emigration from India has been again per- mitted, this transition seems about to be completed, and confidence restored. \n\nThe West India body never imagined that the social revolution from which they have so grievously suffered could be accomplished without inconvenience; but they confidently trusted that the influence of Her Majesty's Government would be vigo- rously exerted to preserve the value of their property; that not only would the eman- cipated slaves be encouraged, by all practicable means, to apply themselves to the cul- tivation of the staple products of the colonies, but that every possible facility would be accorded for the purpose of obtaining substitutes for those who might withdraw from field-labour, or engage in other occupations. \n\nAlthough this reasonable expectation has been hitherto disappointed, and the object which it was the undoubted wish of your Lordship to effect has not yet been attained, they would fain hope that redress will no longer be withheld; and that your Lordship, as the public guardian of their interests, will at length enable them to realize the promised benefits of freedom, and thus avert the disastrous conse quences which must otherwise ensue. \n\nI have, &c. \n\nThe Right Hon. Lord Stanley, \n\n&c. Sze. \n\nSir, \n\n&c. \n\nNo. 18. \n\nCHARLES CAVE, Chairman. \n\nCory of a LETTER from G. W. HOPE, Esq., to CHARLES CAVE, Esq. \n\nDowning-street, November 6, 1843. \n\nI AM directed by Lord Stanley to acknowledge the receipt of the letter which, on behalf of the West Indian body, you addressed to his Lordship on the 19th ultimo, on the subject of emigration to the West Indies; and in reference to your statement that the Order of Her Majesty in Council of the 4th of January last, allowing contracts to be entered into with the free coloured people of North \n\nCHINESE \n\nCHINESE LABOURERS TO THE WEST INDIES. America has been rendered ineffective, in consequence of the officers to be appointed for its execution not having been nominated, am to inform you that on the 1st of LABOURERS. March last Lord Stanley addressed Despatches to the Governors of Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick, directing them to appoint one or more members of their governments to grant certificates to the parties applying for them, on pay- ment of a small fee. Although no official notification has been received of the appointment of these officers, Lord Stanley cannot doubt but that had application been made to the respective governments in those colonies, no difficulty would have been experienced by any parties in obtaining the necessary certificate. I am further directed to express Lord Stanley's regret that the perusal of the evidence taken before the West African Committee has left upon his mind an impression directly opposed to the conclusions you draw from it, as to the degree of freedom possessed by the lower class of Africans in the native states, and the practicability of carrying on, from thence, a bond fida free emigration. \n\nLord Stanley further regrets to learn that, notwithstanding the caution by which the first announcement of the permission of Coolie immigration into the Mauritius was accompanied, as well as the frequent explanations and repetitions of the state- ment then made that the step was to be considered experimental only, he has been unsuccessful in guarding Her Majesty's Government against the inference that all restrictions, as regards the West Indies, ought to be removed at once, and without even awaiting the result of the experiment in progress in the much less difficult case of Mauritius. \n\nCharles Cave, Esq. &c. &c. \n\nNo. 19. \n\nI am, &c. \n\nG. W. HOPE. \n\nCopy of a LETTER from CHARLES CAVE, Esq., to Lord STANLEY. \n\nWest India Committee Rooms, 12, Old Jewry, \n\nNovember 15, 1843. \n\nMy Lord, \n\nI HAVE the honour to acknowledge the receipt of a letter from Mr. Hope, written by direction of your Lordship, under the date of the 6th instant; and, hav- ing communicated the same to the Committee of the West India body, I am desired to express the extreme disappointment it has occasioned, intimating as it does your Lordship's intention to maintain, for an indefinite period, the restrictions under which the West India proprietors have so long suffered; or, at least, that the con- cessions of their just claims may still be postponed to other, and inferior, considera- tions. As they cannot doubt that your Lordship is sincerely disposed to promote the prosperity of the West India Colonies, and that you must feel an especial interest in the complete success of emancipation, it seems to this Committee impos- sible that Her Majesty's Government can be fully acquainted with their real condi- tion, and yet continue to withhold the only remedial measures by which these objects may be attained, especially as, if they were even now granted a consi- derable time must necessarily elapse before they could become effective. The West India body are indeed aware, from the Despatches published by the Colonial Department, that some years ago (as particularly shown by one addressed on the 15th of February, 1840, to the Governor of Guiana,) the great decline in the production of sugar, and even the possibility of its utter extinction, were regarded with indifference, if not with complacency; and that it was deemed a secondary question\" \"how to maintain the natural prosperity of our West India Colonies, promote the cultivation of products for which the climate is adapted, and keep up, if not increase, the consumption of British manufactures.” They have also observed that certain Governors and other functionaries, thus countenanced, and concerned also to make their own administration appear suc- cessful, have constantly reported the colonies in which they are placed as being in a state of prosperity, though it was notorious that their cultivation was sustained at a great sacrifice. While these opinions prevailed with Her Majesty's Govern- ment, it was impossible to expect that any measures comprehending the interests of all classes, proprietors as well as labourers-should be considered without prejudice. But this Committee cannot ascribe to your Lordship sentiments so much at variance with the views expounded in your Despatch to the Governor \n\nNo. 19.",

Davis, Esq. \n\nDowning-street, November 30, 1843. \n\nI AM directed by Lord Stanley to acquaint you, in reply to your letter of the 7th instant, that, upon a full consideration of the matter, his Lordship sees no reason for increasing the present rate of bounty upon Chinese labourers introduced into the West Indies, namely, 65 dollars for every adult, male or female. \n\nWith respect to the terms upon which contracts may be entered into with the Chinese, I am to acquaint you that the Land and Enigration Commissioners have, with Lord Stanley's sanction, published a notice, making certain modifica- tions in the regulations which had been previously adopted. \n\nR. F. Davis, Esq., &c. &c, \n\nI have, &c. \n\n(Signed) \n\nNo. 30. \n\nG. W. HOPE, \n\nCory of a LETTER from the COLONIAL LAND AND EMIGRATION COMMIS- SIONERS to JAMES STEPHEN, Esq. \n\nSir, \n\nColonial Land and Emigration Office, November 24, 1843. \n\nWE have the honour to acknowledge your letter of the 20th instant, ac- companied by one from Mr. Davis, dated the 7th of November, representing that the bounty of 65 dollars will not suffice to pay for the importation of a Chinese labourer into the West Indies, including a provision of warm clothing for his pas- sage, and requesting that no objection may be offered to rendering advances of money in China repayable after arrival. \n\nAs this subject has been so repeatedly urged by Mr. Davis personally as well as in this letter, we must begin by submitting that we cannot fairly be held answer- able for the bounties actually proving to cover all expenses. In the present, as in all other speculations, there must be uncertainty and some risk; many contin- gencies have to be considered, and the hazard of the business must be weighed by the same parties who look to the advantage. All we can undertake is to state correctly the effect of existing data. If indeed we were at liberty to make a mere conjecture, we might very probably wish to guess rather a higher than a lower sum than 65 dollars; but when the question was referred to us officially, we con- sidered we were bound to proceed upon some evidence. \n\nNow the proposed rate of bounty was known to Mr. Davis himself, as well as several other gentlemen interested in the question, some weeks before it was finally announced. All seemed to agree in its propriety beforehand, and none have com- plained of it since except Mr. Davis. He has taken exception to it on the ground that some of the provisions of the Rules were not foreseen. \n\nWe must, however, explain that Mr. Davis fell into a mistake in supposing that gratuities or other local disbursements had been left out of account in the estimates, and that this was a clear additional charge by the effect of the Bounty Rules. On the contrary, by the very estimate tendered on behalf of the West India body, 65 dollars would cover all charges, including the maximum gratuity of 15 dollars. By an estimate which we made on distinct grounds, the same result was arrived at. And such being the calculations beforehand, it next followed that when the offer was thrown into the market, several parties at once sent out to obtain labourers at this rate of bounty. It is difficult perhaps to conceive a more complete body of evidence that the amount was not ill considered, and that, as far as private persons' present information goes, they consider it one on which it is prudent to act. \n\nBut Mr. Davis further argued that the Bounty Rules introduced a novelty, by requiring a surgeon. We have pointed out to him that, under the Passengers Act, he could not have taken so many as 50 emigrants without a surgeon; and it cer- tainly could not be seriously contended that persons contemplated the carriage of Chinese in petty numbers falling below that limit. Agaiu, Mr. Davis alludes to the provision of warm clothing; but it has been distinctly explained by the autho- rities that the shippers are not to be necessarily required to furnish this article; and, from what is stated of the customs of the Chinese, it seems very probable that they will have a sufficient stock of their own.

E. SHELLEY, \n\nClerk of the Councils. \n\nJOHN FRANCIS DAVIS, Governor, &c. &c. \n\nHONGKONG.-Published by Authority. \n\nPrinted by Jous CarK. \n\nIn 230 H tong \n\nTo His Excellency the Governon \n\nof Hongkong and its Dependencies and the the Colony Honorable Members of the Legislative Coun- cil of Hongkong. HONORABLE SIRS-We respectfully beg to address you with reference to Ordinance No. \n\n17 of 1844 entitled \"An Ordinance for Esta- blishing a Registry of the Inhabitants of the \"Island of Hongkong and its Dependencies.\"-- passed the Legislative Council the 21st August last and published for the first time in the Friend of China of the 19th October to come into force the 1st November. \n\nTho it may not be strictly within our pro- vince to question the Policy of the publication of any ordinance, whether urgent or unimpor tant its principles and details, not taking place until within the short space of twelve days of the period of its coming into operation we cannot but express our regret that an Ordi- nance so materially affecting both public and private interests, which appears to have been passed so for back as the 21st August last, should not have been made known to us un- til within so short a period of our being called upon to acknowledge it as law-thus depriving as the opportunity of making that due \n\nrepresen tation of our opinions against such enactments as may appear to us to bear hard upon our in- terests: a privilege, which as being unrepre- sented in the Legislative Council, we think is our due considering the important interests we have at stake in the Colony. To these cir- cumstances we pray you to attribute the la- teness of our present address and not to any indifference to the subject at issue. \n\nWith these preliminary observations, we desire, therefore to represent to you Excellency and the respective Honorable Members of your Council the unfeigned, and extreme repugna- nce with which we have read the Ordinance in question and to enter our formal and de- clared Protest against the Principles that it involves. \n\nPrinciples-We do not hesitate to say as unjust as they are arbitrary and unconstitutional taxing British subjects unrepresented in the most iniquitous of forms, authorizing the most unheard of inquisitorial proceedings, without appeal or remedy, and placing the very power of residence to British subjects whose name may have hitherto been unsullied and unsus- pected in the hands of any one individual. \n\nFurther-We consider that the Law in question is opposed in its details to one of the great objects struggled for during the late was with the Chinese Empire, and against which special provision was made in the Treaty of Nankin-namely, the unchristan principle of bolding one men responsible for the acts of another. \n\npur- \n\nAgain-We would represent that the effect of this enactment if carried out will interfere with the labor and consequent prosperity of the Colony-inasumch, as many of us have entered in o contracts upon the faith of chases wale from your Government at enor- mous rentals, which must now either be broken or delayed from the demur that the contractor will make to introduce laborors for their fulfil- ment whiltst the despotism that is apparent in this act, will induce many respectable Chinese who have now sufficient difficulty in paying \n\nthe heavy house rent in this Colony entirely to abandon the place, and deter others from taking up their residence amongst us. And, Moreover-We give it as our unqualified opinion that the carrying out of the details of this Ordinance will be found impracticable, as well as inefficacious for the object sought to be in attained, that the principle that it in- volves is even more stringent than has ever yet been applied to a penal settlement and we confidently assert is repugnant to the feelings of every Honorable British subject. \n\nWith the above representation of our views of and ↑ Protest against this Ordinance we would pray your Excellency in Council either to modify its details so as to remove the intollerance of the principles that it gives law to, or to cause the operation of it to be sus- pended until reference can be made to the Home Co- vernment as we cannot suppose that such a measure can receive the sanction of Her most gracious Majesty. \n\nT.

        "content_text": "having in its neighborhood some vast stone quarries.- From \"Soo-ke-wan\" a native foot-path, sufficiently good to ride on, leads to \"Tai-tam,\" which is at present a place of little note-though situated at the head of an ex- tensive and deep bay of that uame. \n\n: \n\nOn the west side of the southernmost point of \"Tai- tam\" bay there is a little cové called \"Chek-chu,\" the resort of large fleets of fishing boats, and the site of a con- siderable town with a population of about 2000 souls,~ having a very good bazaar, an expensive rope walk, and shops well stocked to supply the wants of Chinese sea- faring people. \n\nIt is at this place the government have determined on erecting a barrack for two or three hundred men, and where one capable of holding a hundred is now in an advanced state towards completion. A branch of the \n\nTai-tam\" road will lead to this town. \n\nTracing one's steps westward as if continuing round the island, one at length comes to \"Heongkong\" proper, a small agricultural village situated in a remarkably pret ty, and the most extensive valley on the island. \"Shek- pae-wan,\" often called by the Chinese \"Heongkong, Shek-pae-wan,\" would seem to be the sea port of Hong- kong proper, and to have once been a more flourishing place than it now is. There is here, on an isolated spot the largest Chinese temple to be found on any part of the island. The port of \"Shek-pae-wan,\" though small, is nearly land-locked; and having both a northern and a southwestern entrance, it is pretty easy of ingress and egress. An island of about two miles in circumference, called \"Tap-lee-chow\" protects it from southwest to north, and the island of Hongkong completes the circle. There is abundance of water for a line-of-battle ship, and is only fault is in being too small as an anchorage for many European vessels, yet there may be nearly as much anchoring ground in it as in the Inner Harbour of Macao. There is at present a small detachment of the Madras native iufantry with two officers and one doctor stationed at this place; and the road has been projected and parti- ally finished, from \"Kwun-tai-loo\" to it across the hills, \n\n■ distance of 3 to 4 miles. \n\nThere are other villages on the island, but as no pub- lic works are carrying on, at or near them, at the present date, it has not been thought necessary in this short sketch to make mention of them. \n\nVarious materials have been used in building. At the commencement no one thought of anything better than houses constructed of fan palm leaf, called by the Chinese kwai, the next stage, was having them boarded and made with doors and windows that could open and shat; then occasionally was found one room of brick, and the rest of the house of the aforementioned description. The first who set the example of a stone and brick house, was Mr. Matheson; government soon after commenced the magis- tracy and prison, others followed in their train, and now few Europeans think of a palm leaf house, except with cer- tain forebodings of fever and ague. \n\nSome wooden houses have been imported from Singapore, and are at present being erected upon a lower story of stone; but for large buildings such as barracks, where space and solidity (should no objection on the score of wholesomeness exist) are the principal considerations, a material made of the common soil or disintegrated rock of the place, sifted and mixed with lime, and then pounded between >trong boards into solid walls, seems to be as good as any- thing else, and costs about half what brick or stone would do. From the great thickness of the walls, also, this ma- terial is better adapted for keeping out the heat in suru- mer and the cold in winter; but it must be covered in- side and out with a thick coating of plaster. This being well done, and care taken in having the material well mixed and pounded together, there is every reason to expect that a building so constructed will last a very long time, and indeed attain additional solidity the older it becomes. \n\n| \n\nrope. \n\nmaterial is called ni-cheun by the Chinese at Hongkong, taipa by the Portuguese at Macao, and the manner of making it answers to the description of the pisé of Eu- Stone is, however, best adapted for building near the sea, and it will be found to cost as little as brick. \n\nSome wood has been brought from Singapore and Manila, but as it is dearer than Chinese wood now, and requires much more labour to work it, the latter seems to be preferred. Nothing but cheapness would induce one to use the Manila and Singapore wood for other purposes than floorings, as it is excessively heary; and for roofs the Chinese timber will last as long as the tiles. \n\nThe productions of the Island are at present not very numerous. Round most of the villages both on the northr and the south side of the island are found very fine Mango trees. The \"Lichee,\" the Longan,\" the Orange, and the Pear-trees seem also to thrive very well, the soil being deep between the rocks, and, (according to the opinion of some of the gardeners from the gardens near Canton) of an excellent quality for trees of every sort, some of which have been already planted. There is not much rice-cultivation on the Island, and what there is, being only on the level parts, is likely soon to be discontinued for the cultivation of vegetables more sought after by Europeans, or to be purchased and turned into spots for building upon. \n\nSweet potatoes, and a few of the other Chinese vegetables are likewise grown; and, doubtless, when the agricultural part of the inhabitants begin to find a demand for other than Chinese vegetables, others will be produced. Some small additional patches of ground on different parts of the Island, previously unproductive, have since its occupation by the English been brought into cultivation. Fish is abundant, and much of it is cured at \"Chek-chu,\" as well as at other fishing villages. \n\nOwing to the Roads and paths that have already been eut, parts of the Island are now easily got at where for- merly it was difficult to go; and the dry coarse grass and fern which abounds in the bills is brought down in large quantities, and with such facility as to render it cheaper, combined with other circumstances, for Chinese boats to careen at Hongkong, than at any neighbouring places. The grass and fern are need by the Chinese for killing the insects that have eaten into the bottoms of their boats. \n\nMany little arts are now practised among the working portions of the population, which three months ago were not known at Hongkong. Every house that is building of stone gives employment to an itinerant blacksmith, who is required to point the stone cutter's tools. Mattrass- makers may also be seen cleansing their cotton with their oddly constructed bow-and hawkers of every description ahound, as well as the various sort of fortune-tellers, jugglers, quacks, and actors, that are seen in all well populated Chinese towns. \n\nLime-kilns have necessarily increased, and there are many places where the soil is adapted for bricks, so that we may some day see the art of brick making introduced. Tanning is likewise carried on pretty extensively, and the cattle that are consumed by the European classes. afford the hides. \n\nThe Population has often been estimated at about 15.000 souls, and it is probable this number is by no means an over-estimate. Until the population, however, gets regularly fixed, it will not be easy to obtain a censur. They are bard-working, industrious, and cheerful, as the Chinese usually are; and they appear to be too much en- gaged with their own affairs to have time for idleness and graver crimes--which of late have been anything but of frequent occurrence among them.. \n\nThere are not more than a dozen horses un the island, \n\nand one carriage; a few small flocks of sheep and some goats, Cattle for the consumption of the Europeans are easily obtained, and some of the cows have been found to afford rather a good supply of rich milk, when taken care of and fed with grain. \n\nThe ancient houses at Macao as well as the Many of the complaints about excessive heat, and ex- walls of the city are made of this material; and the Chi-cessive cold and dreadful uuhealthiness, are being for- \n\nnese may occasionally be seen, when it is required to gatten, except among those who have little else to occupy pull some part of one of them down, cutting out bits of it their attention-amidst the general bustle and activity of with wedges and pickaxes, as if it were stone.

The Accounts of more early date and those rendered by the Consuls, needed explanation, but the objections taken were for the most part, confined to points capable of ready explanation & removal. On the account for the quarter ending 30th June 1844, lately made home, some questions have arisen that will probably require a reference to Hongkong for the Commissioners of audit to make their final report respecting them, but I have fortunately brought with me the necessary vouchers to prove the correctness of all statements.\n\n(Signed) Henry Pottinger\n\nBart.

There was also a considerable entrepôt trade between the northern and southern coasts of China. Now a foreign trade has commenced, which will probably increase to a very large extent if we retain the island. In two articles of British manufacture, the sales at Chusan during the past year amounted to 1,000,000 dollars, viz.:\n\nDollars.\n\nCotton goods to the amount of 750,000\n\nWoollen ditto 250,000\n\n—1,000,000\n\n[We omitted at the treaty of Nankin, to get a free trade between Chusan and other parts of China, at least during our occupation of the island.]\n\nIn July 1843, Captain Cleverly, of the \"William Hughes,\" sold in four days in Chusan harbour, woollen goods to the amount of 85,000 dollars. There was not so much merchandize sold at the Consular ports of Shanghai and Ningpo in nine months, as was sold at Chusan in the earlier months of 1843. The Chinese prefer purchasing goods at Chusan, as there is no monopoly, and as they have no China custom house mark on them; and they are thus more readily saleable at the different ports along the coast, as they can be transmitted into the interior of the country, without being subject to the transit duties which are levied on British manufactures, even after they have paid the custom-house duties at the Consular ports. The possession of Chusan, as a trading emporium, is the more necessary, by reason of the state of four of the Consular ports, which, excepting Shanghai, have not in any degree realized the expectations entertained. There is little British trade at Amoy.\n\n\"In Asia the observance of treaties does not arise from any conviction that they are an obligation binding on both parties, but it springs from sheer necessity; and the moment this powerful law is not in operation, all engagements are null and void. The best guarantee for the maintenance of our treaty, will be the British occupation of Chusan. Its possession by England will render the mandarins more conscientious and willing in executing the behests of their sovereign, and the great monarch more desirous of conciliation, than our fleets and armies stationed at the other extremity of the empire. Chusan will prove the bridle for restraining the wild and ungovernable passions of Mulichangah's party, and for keeping England free from all interference in the political affairs of China. In case of an European war, Chusan would prove a very valuable post for the protection of our shipping, and the expulsion of any enemy from those seas; and without such a station the northern trade, which ere long will be larger than the southern, would be exposed to imminent dangers.\n\n\"We would look upon Chusan as another Malta, not in point of natural strength, but of political importance, for the maintenance and undisturbed enjoyment of a commerce which, after the opening of Japan and Korea, and the access to Mantchouria, will certainly rival the whole of our Mediterranean trade.\n\n\"With a fourth of the money spent on the ungrateful soil of Hong Kong, Chusan would have exhibited a larger and more beautiful city than we shall ever behold on the straggling hills of this colony.\n\n\"If changes occur—if difficulties in the performance of the treaty arise—if China resumes its perfidious conduct—if other foreign powers strive to obtain the mastery in its councils—if the country is agitated, and trade must seek a safe asylum, then the permanent occupation of Chusan will become the most salutary measure that could be adopted for preserving British ascendancy and influence in Eastern Asia.\"—[Dr. Gutzlaff's report, written in November, 1844, two months after mine on Chusan.]\n\n44\n\n# CHUSAN\n\ntrade at Amoy. The \"Erin\" and the \"Mary Anne Webb\" were at Amoy during the present month (August, 1844), and could not sell a bale of cotton goods, or of anything, although there was no stock on hand. At Ningpo, there is no resident British merchant. Goods have been lying at Ningpo for the last six months unsaleable. The Ningpo authorities are ever throwing impediments in the way of trade: they forbid the introduction of foreign goods in native vessels from Chusan. I may mention the following fact: in July, 1844, the \"Cornwall,\" an English vessel of 300 tons, arrived at Ningpo from Singapore, with a cargo of \"Straits' produce,\" and some British manufactures. The \"Cornwall\" was chartered by a Chinaman, who is a merchant residing at Singapore; he was born at Malacca, and his ancestors for three generations have been British subjects. There was a Chinaman from Singapore placed on board as supercargo by the Malacca-Chinese merchant; but the captain of the ship and his crew were English. On the arrival of the \"Cornwall\" at Ningpo, the mandarins resolved on confiscating the ship and cargo, and it was only by the urgent representations of the Consul that she was saved. The \"Cornwall\" then left Ningpo for Shanghai, and was totally lost on one of the banks in the Yang-tze-kiang river, when proceeding thither.\n\nThe general policy of the Chinese Government is obviously directed to the greatest possible concentration of the foreign trade, thus rendering it subject to a more rigid system of supervision, and more available for exactions. The Tartar Government dread the extension of our trade in the northern ports, and would gladly drive it all back to Canton.*\n\n* The following information was collected for Lord Aberdeen by the Chinese Secretary to Government during the past year:-\n\n\"Keshen, a Mantchoo Tartar, who, for a considerable period swayed the Cabinet of Pekin, was considered a great reformer in everything, and was supposed to be the fittest person to curb the Western Barbarians. He augmented vast wealth from bribes, peculations, confiscations, exorbitant interest on capital lent, presents, rewards, speculations in salt trade, proceeds from pawnbroker's shops, &c.\n\nAs a diplomatist Keshen had great tact—had perfect command of his temper —great politeness—always talked the fairest words—protracted discussions—never gave offence—never made any close connection—was ready with small concessions but always avoided granting anything of importance. He realized most fully the sentiment attributed to Talleyrand, that language was bestowed on man for the concealment of his thoughts.\n\n\"When Captain Elliot and our ships appeared off the Peiho river there was not a single obstacle to oppose our capture of Pekin; Keshen was sent to negotiate with Captain Elliot and prepared a pretended letter from the British Minister to the Court of Pekin containing a sufficiency of truth to give a slight colouring to a great mass of falsehood intended to deceive the Emperor. To Captain Elliot he promised, that on due investigation at Canton some indemnification for the opium might perhaps be awarded. When our fleet left the Peiho river there were great rejoicings at Pekin, and an edict was issued by the Emperor declaring that the English barbarians were respectfully obedient and yielding (to this moment the great mass of the people at Canton believe, as they have been told, that the English paid a large sum of money to be permitted to quit the walls of Canton). On Keshen's arrival at Canton he pretended great friendship for Captain Elliot, at the very time when he was planning to surprise that brave, humane, but too confiding officer.\n\nKeshen wrote to the Emperor that the English only wanted an anchorage or careening place at Hong Kong. But as soon as it became apparent that Keshen had failed in his boasted annihilation of the Western Barbarians, there was no...",

I formatted the text into paragraphs based on logical breaks and coherence.\n\n4. **Indicate missing words**: Not applicable as the corrections made were based on clear spelling errors or contextual understanding.\n\n5. **Do not rephrase or rewrite**: The corrections were limited to spelling, spacing, and rejoining sentences without altering the original tone or style.\n\n6. **Format in HTML**: The output is formatted using HTML with `` tags for paragraphs.\n\n7. & 9. **No translation of text**: The text was not translated.\n\n8. Not applicable as the output is in HTML.\n\n10. **Format of File Reference**: Not directly applicable as there were no file references in the given text to correct.\n\n11. **Page numbering**: Not detected in the given text.\n\n12. & 16. **No comments or explanations**: No comments or explanations were left in the output.\n\n13. **Newspaper reordering**: Not applicable as the text did not appear to be from a newspaper with column issues.\n\n14. **Data in tables**: The original text did not contain clear table data.\n\n15. **Chinese writing direction**: Not applicable as there was no Chinese text that needed reordering.\n\nThe final output is in HTML format as requested.",

Martin,\n\nHer Majesty's Treasurer, China.\n\n(9.)\n\nREPORT on the TEA TRADE, transmitted to Her Majesty's Government from China, in July 1845.By R. M. Martin.\n\nTHE traffic in an innutritious herb, grown almost solely in one district of Asia, and in a country hitherto isolated from the western nations, is one of the most remarkable illustrations of the enterprise and energy of modern commerce. A trade involving British capital to the extent of about 10,000,000l. sterling, furnishing regular employment to about 60,000 tons of first-class English-built shipping, contributing nearly 5,000,000l. sterling of annual revenue to the Exchequer, and influencing materially the morals and sobriety of the nation, deserves investigation in detail, as regards its rise, progress, and present condition.\n\nThe tea plant, although found in different parts of the eastern hemisphere, is probably indigenous to China, or Japan, where it is extensively cultivated. The earliest record to be found of the use of tea is in the records of the Moorish historians and travellers in the end of the eighth century, at which period the Mahommedans had free ingress and residence in China, subject to very few restrictions.\n\nIbn Batuta mentions that the emperor received the revenues from salt; that paper money, bearing the government stamp, was current in the country; and that the general drink of the people was prepared by immersing the leaves of a small plant in hot water, which was used medicinally as well as for correcting the bad properties of the water.\n\nSoliman, an Arabian merchant, who visited China, A. D. 850, describes \"sah\" (tea), as the usual beverage of the people.\n\nTexeira, a Spaniard, in 1600, saw dried leaves (of tea) at Malacca, which were in use among the Chinese. Olearius, in 1633, found the use of tea pretty general among the Persians, who procured it from China by means of the Usbeck Tartars. The Russian ambassador (Stawkaw) to the court of the Mogul Chau Shau Attyn, partook of tea, and at his departure he was offered it for the Czar Michael Romanoff, which he refused, not knowing of what use it would be in Russia.\n\nOf the first introduction of tea into Europe we know but little. In 1517, Emmanuel, King of Portugal, sent a fleet of eight ships to China, and an ambassador to Pekin, who obtained permission to open a trade; but it was not until after the formation of the Dutch East India Company in 1602, that the use of tea became known on the continent, and although the enterprising Hollanders paid considerable attention to it, as an article of commerce, the consumption increased but little, for in 1670 it was unknown in Dort.\n\n[ 5 ]\n\nThe Dutch, in their second voyage to China, bought a good deal of tea, at from 8d. to 10d. per pound (the price at the present day), which, although of a middling quality, sold in Paris for 30 livres a pound; and for some years the best Japanese tea, esteemed as much better than that of China, brought from 100 to 200 livres per pound in France, until the use of coffee and chocolate became fashionable and general.\n\nThe first authentic notice to be found of tea in England, is in an Act of Parliament (12 Car. II, c. 23) A. D. 1660, by which a duty of 8d. per gallon was laid on all tea made and sold in coffee-houses; and by an Act framed in the same year the duties of excise on malt liquor, cyder, perry, meal, spirits, or strong waters, coffee, tea, sherbet, and chocolate were settled on the king for life. In the diary of Mr. Pepys, secretary of the Admiralty, there is found under date 25th September 1661, the following memorandum relative to tea \"I sent for a cup of tea, a Chinese drink, of which I had never drank before.\"\n\nIn 1662, Charles the Second married the Princess Catherine of Portugal, who it is said was fond of tea, having been accustomed to it in her own country, hence it became fashionable in England. Waller, in a birth-day ode on her Majesty, ascribes the introduction of the herb to the queen in the following lines:\n\n\"The best of queens and best of herbes we owe\n\ndid show\n\nTo that bold nation who the\n\nway\n\nTo the fair region where the sun doth rise, Whose rich productions we so justly prize.\"\n\nThe same poet attributes an inspiring power to the Chinese leaf:\n\n\"The muses' friend, tea, does our fancy aid,\n\nRepress those vapours which the head invade.\"\n\nIn 1660 tea was sold in England at three guineas per pound. The following copy of an advertisement in 1680, shows the price of the leaf, and the mode of vending it to the public:\n\n\"These are to give notice to persons of quality, that a small parcel of most excellent tea is by accident fallen into the hands of a private person to be sold; but that none may be disappointed, the lowest price is thirty shillings a pound, and not any to be sold under a pound weight, for which they are desired to bring a convenient box. Enquire at Mr. Thomas Eagle's, at the King's Head, in St. James's Market.”—London Gazette, 16 December 1680.\n\nIn 1666 Lords Arlington and Ossory brought a quantity of tea from Holland; its price in England then was 60s. per pound. About this period, the East India Company being desirous of presenting a rarity to his Majesty, procured 22 lbs. of tea, which was thought a valuable offering to royalty.\n\nHeretofore the small quantity used in England was obtained from the Continent; for in 1634, some English ships having visited Canton, a rupture took place between our seamen and the Chinese, and trade was for some time interdicted; but in 1668 the Court of Directors, in the despatch to their factories at Bantam in Java, ordered them to send home by their ships 100 lbs, weight of the best tea they could get. And accordingly, in 1669, the East India Company's first invoice of tea was received, amounting to two canisters of 143 lbs. Such was the commencement of a trade which, by the most judicious management, has now risen to an importation of upwards of 50,000,000 lbs. weight. That a careful proportioning of the supply to the demand was absolutely necessary, will be evident from the following fact, which at this early period operated as a warning to the Company, and has since proved highly beneficial to the commerce. In 1678 the East India Company imported 4,713 lbs. of tea; but this then large quantity completely glutted the market, for the imports of tea during the ensuing six years amounted in all to only 318 lbs. In 1680 the Company opened a direct trade with China.\n\nIn 1689 the old mode of levying the duty on tea, viz. by the quantity made in the coffee-houses, being found very uncertain as well as vexatious, an Act of 1 Gul. & Mar., sess. 2, c. 6, fixed a custom duty of 5s. a pound, together with the former sum of five per cent. on the value.\n\nFor some time the consumption of tea slowly increased in England, in consequence of the high rate of duty, which was sometimes as high as 200 per cent. on the sale price.\n\nA considerable degree of smuggling arose, which was only put down by lowering the taxation. During the years 1697, 1698, and 1699, the East India Company imported on an average 20,000 lbs. of tea annually. In 1700 the importation was augmented to 60,000 lbs. a year, the average price of tea being 16s. per pound. In 1721 the importation of tea into England exceeded for the first time 1,000,000 lbs.; and at the September sale in 1728, the quantity put up for sale was 769,104 lbs., the duty on which amounted to 153,820l. sterling.\n\nThe bill of cargo of the Cæsar, which arrived from China 17th May 1726, has entered in it 358,000 lbs. of tea, the duty on which was 71,620l. sterling. Since the commencement of the present century the annual consumption of tea in the United Kingdom has increased by upwards of 20,000,000 of pounds, while its use during the same period has been decreasing in Europe and America. In the space of 100 years, from 1710 to 1810, there were sold at the East India Company's sales 750,219,016 lbs. of tea, the value of which was 129,804,595l. sterling. Of this quantity of tea 116,470,675 lbs. were re-exported. Since the commencement of the present century, 1,385,949,566 lbs. of tea have been sold in England,",

For instance, \"Inlandi\" could be \" Inland \" or another word depending on the context, \"Fest\" might be \"Festival\" or another related term, \"کنه که کره\" is in Persian or Arabic script and seems to be correctly recognized as is, \"PFF ů 1622\" could be a misrecognition, potentially \"PFF No. 1622\" or similar.\n\n2. **Rejoining Broken Sentences and Restoring Paragraph Breaks**: The text seems to be a collection of disjointed information, possibly from a table or list. Rejoining sentences is challenging without clear context.\n\n3. **Formatting in Markdown**: The text doesn't seem to have clear headers or sections that can be formatted using Markdown headers (#, ##, ###).\n\n4. **File References and Page Numbering**: There are no clear file references or page numbering in the standard format described.\n\n5. **Newspaper Reordering and Data in Tables**: The text appears to be a mix of data that could be from a table or list, but reordering it like a newspaper or constructing a table is challenging without more context.\n\nGiven the constraints and the nature of the input text, here is a processed version focusing on correcting obvious errors and maintaining the original content as closely as possible:\n\nInland\n\n16 Leased 24 June, 1844\n\n117.\n\n431\n\nH 5 SEP\n\nFest\n\n116663471⁄2 4910.144417754.\n\n28013\n\n37.13 5G\n\nکنه که کره\n\n10 107, 31 July 1841, 4,\n\n72 5 J1⁄2 lögu. 13. wź 1833.11. 114\n\n181316\n\nانے کو بے گھر\n\n19.159\n\n\"\n\n191683\n\n19189\n\n19\n\n19158\n\n\"\n\n23fdedi, 1843\n\nPFF No. 1622\n\n12\n\nnya\n\n1178\n\n\"\n\n77\n\n\"\n\n1174\n\n1000\n\nG\n\nفي\n\n1000 310 21⁄2\n\n:\n\n25 March 1845 19 Septe\n\n18 Jang, 1847. 17 July,\n\n12.114 18 Woltz, 1845.\n\n4 July 1845.\n\n\"\n\n115/16 J\n\n4 hang, 1847.\n\n18 Betz,\n\n59 25 Azgth, 18475.\n\n10 tune, 1845.\n\n19 July 1847.\n\n15 Ottm\n\n15 14 71⁄2 1 Apr, 1845.\n\nI depth,\n\nАрай\n\n11 Jany, 1847%. 10 Abate,\n\n2.114 21 Sky, 1845.\n\nمرض\n\n19 18 87\n\n12 که\n\nجسے الرسمي\n\n1814 4453\n\n-3\n\nتریک\n\nރ\n\nریم کو رہے گی\n\nک کر کر\n\n113-\n\n*\n\nکیا کر کر\n\n5148\n\nو مل کر\n\n135 14 24 19 10 87% Fyfear\n\n23\n\n1214\n\n1119\n\n13 19 jí 1 14 10\n\n152\n\n31.\n\nPurchased at the etion\n\n220\n\n1170.\n\n118.\n\n2.41 Seine, 18414.\n\n119.\n\n\"\n\nG June, 18415\n\nGlamy 1847 7.6.

Sen- do portanto evidente, que Sen-Chi-Leong, se elle realmente foi um dos assassinos, teve cumplices; e sendo o criminoso um reo confes- so, cumpria que antes de o mandar justiçar fossem descubertos, e identificados não só os cumplices, mas ainda os que fossem conscios do crime, e se procedessem ás necessarias averiguações, e outras for- malidades indispensaveis por serem exigidas por lei, não só para se conseguir o exacto conhecimento da verdade e satisfação da parte offendida, mas, no presente caso, até por interesse e dignidade das Authoridades Chinezas, para quem era este o meio unico de desvia- rem de si a responsabilidade, que sobre ellas ainda peza. E finalmen- te se não foi aleivosa a allusão que V. Exa. fez em um dos seus Of- ficios anteriores, e que vem agora repetida na presente confissão do réo, á possibilidade de haverem sido aliciados os assassinos por por- tuguezcs, era esta a occasião de V. Exa. a justificar, e se ella se não approveitou não é culpa deste Conselho, a quem só incumbe protes- tar, como protesta, contra todas estas violações de Direitos offendi- dos, e mais especialmente do de Sua Magestade a RAINHA de Portu- gal, a Quem é de vida inteira e cabal satisfação.\n\nAo papel que veio incluso no Officio de V. Exa., e que V. Exa. pertende seja tido como confissão do réo, este Conselho ha de ape. nas alludir neste lugar para declarar a V. Exa, que alem de elle não ter character algum de authenticidade, carece de todas as formas le- gaes para poder ser valido, não obstante ter V. Exa. pessoalmente interrogado ao réo; e de mais entre este papel e o primeiro Officio de V. Exa. nota-se tal identidade de ideas, de lingoagem, e mesmo de characteres, que induz a supposição de que ou ambas aquellas produções procederam de uma mesma penna, ou que se quiz appro- veitar a occasião para reiterar na confissão os insultos, e as affron- tas do Officio; e nesta supposição o Conselho os repelle, renovando o seu protesto anterior; e elle tem de exigir de V. Exa. a revogação da ordem que diz, dera para ser exposta a Macao, na certeza que o Governo Portuguez ja mais ha de consentir, cabeça do justiçado em que em territorio seu se faça similhaute exposição.\n\nEm conclusão dirá este Conselho a V. Exa., que o acto por V. Exa. praticado longe de atenuar, aggrava a sua responsabilidade no caso do assassinio do Illustre Governador desta Provincia, e que em vez de ser elle uma reparação das leis, e dos Direitos offendidos, ou satisfação á Justiça ultrajada, elle parece offender todas as leis, e to- dos os Direitos, e ultrajar a mesina Justiça, que já mais se dará por satisfeita com similhantes subterfugios, tão indignos de si, como der- rogatorios de quem os pratica.\n\nEm ultimo lugar, este Conselho tern de declarar novamente a V, Exa,, que competindo a Sua Magestade a Rainha o desaggravo da\n\n431\n\noffensa a Ella feita, este Conselho reserva o direito livre e salvo. Mesma Senhora para haver a satisfação que lhe é devida, como me- Ihor Lhe aprouver na sua alta sabedoria, limitando-se este Consello, como the incumbe o seu rigoroso dever, a protestar a V. Exa. 1.° contra a injustificavel retenção da cabeça e mão do Illustre Gover- nador, que cumpre sejam entregues quanto antes-2. pela prisão dos authores, e cumplices do seu assassinio, pela qual V. Exa. se constitue dobradamente responsavel depois da apprehensão do men- cionado Sen-Chi-Leong, a qual devia de ter habilitado as authorida- des competentes a descubri-los-e 3. contra a projectada exposição\n\nda cabeça daquelle desgraçado em Macao; fazendo a V.

The text includes various sections such as government notifications, news, births, marriages, deaths, and reports on typhoons and their aftermath.\n\n## Step 3\nTo begin proofreading, we need to correct obvious spelling errors, remove extra spaces, and fix hyphenation or line-break artifacts. For example, \"calancity\" should be \"calamity\", \"savo 'ticias\" should be \"said Ticias\", and \"prusion pond\" should be \"prisoner or provision pond\" but based on context, it seems \"prision\" is likely meant to be \"provision\".\n\n## Step 4\nRejoining broken sentences and restoring paragraph breaks where necessary is also crucial. For instance, sentences split across lines without logical reason should be merged.\n\n## Step 5\nThe text contains sections that need to be formatted into Markdown. Headers, sub-headers, bold types, and tables need to be formatted accordingly. For example, main titles should be preceded by \"#\", sections by \"##\", and bold text should be surrounded by \"**\".\n\n## Step 6\nFile references should not have any spacing inside parentheses, e.g., \"XCR (85)72\" should be \"XCR(85)72\". Page numbering lines, if detected, should be kept as they are, usually six lines in total, three at the page beginning and three at the end.\n\n## Step 7\nNewspaper texts might not make sense due to OCR errors in recognizing columns. Reorganizing them like a puzzle might be necessary to restore the original meaning.\n\n## Step 8\nData in tables should be properly organized to reconstruct the table format.\n\n## Step 9\nSome Chinese writing might start from right to left, and if such reversal is observed, the text should be reversed to meet modern reading habits.\n\n## Step 10\nThe output should be in HTML using  for paragraphs and \n only if absolutely necessary.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\nAge\n\nherself and infant daughter, were\n\ncalamity Entirely\n\ncut off.\n\nThat the said \"Ticias smithers the month of January\n\nhundred and forty a proportion\n\nlowa\n\ndy creating\n\n\"\n\nby this\n\nfree\n\nof his to a\n\nprovision pond and the one mouth swore if such proportion been, paid fin cases.\n\nof his saying disabled (your) believes that her late husband would have been entitled to a pension during\n\nthe remainder of his life.\n\n\"That it has\n\nbeen\n\na\n\npetitione.\n\nto your Majesty's governmento always willing to take into consideration\n\nand render assistance to the survivors of\n\npersons killed in their device and a lit...\n\nwill be found on reference to the Police.

Nor can we omit to notice the acknowledged improvements consequent on the energetic and efficient measures so promptly adopted by Your Excellency after the late calamitous fire in the Chinese town.\n\nMany circumstances combine to render the duties of a Governor in a rising Colony like this, arduous and difficult. But these have invariably been met by Your Excellency with great affability, temper, and consideration.\n\nYour social qualities, so eminently calculated to produce general harmony and confidence, also call forth our warm expression of feeling towards you.\n\nIn conveying to Your Excellency this pledge of our respect and esteem, we cannot refrain from expressing our ardent hope that you may return to us with renewed health, and we feel persuaded that the interests of the Colony, and Mercantile community here and in other places of the Chinese Empire, will occupy some of your leisure during your absence.\n\nWe have the honour to remain, Sir,\n\nYour obedient and faithful servants,\n\nJardine, Matheson & Co.\n\nJohn Dent.\n\nM.

G. BONHAM.\n\nTo the Honorable DAVID JARDINE, Esq.\n\nWILKINSON DENT, Esq.\n\nC. J. F. STUART, Esq.\n\nGEORGE LYALL, Esq., and others.\n\n16777/52\n\nPage 240\n\nFarwell Address of the CHINESE INHABITANTS of Victoria to His Excellency Sir GEORGE BONHAM, K.C.B., on the occasion of his departure for England, March 29, 1852.\n\n(Translation)\n\nYour petitioners, Shopkeepers, and Inhabitants of the Town of Victoria, and their representatives, Tong-shin, of Sheung-shui, Fong-wing, of Tai-ping-san, and Sung-king, of Cheung-sha-wan and Ha-tung, respectfully present this unanimous address to express their sincere wish to see Your Excellency return soon to your high position as Governor of this Colony, that they may once more look up to, and be in your precious presence.\n\nYour Petitioners call to mind with sentiments of the highest respect, the utility and benevolence that have ever characterised Your Excellency's administration since your arrival at the Colony—a benevolence that has never failed to seek out and relieve the secret griefs of every private individual, and wisdom, that has resulted in the marked improvement of the scale of our military defences.\n\nThey contemplate with rare gratitude the power that has undeservedly protected them, and congratulate themselves on the happy fortune that finds blessed tie with Your Excellency's overshadowing presence.\n\nThey ascribe the quiet existence they have passed in the undisturbed pursuit of their several vocations, wholly and entirely to Your Excellency's boundless benevolence.\n\nYour Petitioners have learnt with sentiments of deep reverence that Your Excellency is on the point of returning to England to be aired into the August Presence of Her Most Gracious Majesty: and while songs of eulogy resound throughout the Colony, every heart throbs with the assurance that Your Excellency will be gratified by a friendly and warm-hearted reception at the hands of Your Sovereign.\n\nYour Petitioners would contemplate with heartfelt awe that ability and intrepidity of character, the springs of which lie so deeply hid in Your Excellency's breast, and they would dwell with respect upon that purity and uprightness of soul, the fame of which has earned far beyond the seas.\n\nNow happily overshadowed by the clouds of Your Excellency's presence, Your Petitioners may look up and aspire, although unable to approach; ere long, however, deprived of Your Excellency's life-giving influence, it will only remain for them to dwell upon it in memory with ceaseless Affection and respect—it will be out of their power to divine when that happy day will come on which the fluttering of Your Excellency's gay streamers in the breeze, will indicate your longed-for return, and encourage them once again to trust themselves to the guiding star of their existence, and to bask in the sun of their day.\n\nBlest by sentiments of the deepest gratitude, Your Petitioners will feel it a privilege to escort Your Excellency's departing car, with heads bowed in the dust, and entreat Your Excellency to return in safety.\n\nWould that Your Excellency were not about to leave us? Would you please be persuaded in your rich benevolence to turn again, and come once more amongst us, that we might be again refreshed by your glorious presence, and once more overshadowed by your gracious protection? Now deeply and sincerely Your Petitioners desire it!\n\nYour Petitioners address this respectful petition, wishing Your Excellency peace and prosperity.\n\nTo His Excellency\n\nSIR GEORGE BONHAM, K.C.B.,\n\nHer Britannic Majesty's Plenipotentiary and Superintendent of British Trade in China, and Governor of Hongkong and its Dependencies.\n\n(Signed and sealed by 60 Individuals and Firms)\n\nWIL. MANWARING, Translated by\n\nChinese Secretary.\n\nMar. 1852\n\nReply of His Excellency Sir George Bonham, K.C.B.,\n\nto the Farewell Address of the Chinese Inhabitants of Victoria.\n\nHer Majesty's Plenipotentiary has been much gratified by the handsome and feeling address just presented to him by the Chinese Shopkeepers and Inhabitants of Hongkong, and he is rejoiced to find it is so much peace and prosperity prevail, and that they have enjoyed such freedom from all molestation.\n\nHer Majesty's Plenipotentiary heartily sympathises with the petitioners in the severe trials which so many of them have lately undergone, and he congratulates them on their present recovery from the effects of the fire through the exertions of the more influential among their body.\n\nHer Majesty's Plenipotentiary now leaves them in the sanguine hope that they will soon again enjoy their former peace and prosperity, and that on his return, he shall find the Colony in a flourishing and prosperous condition.\n\nGOVERNMENT HOUSE,\n\n30th March, 1852.\n\nPage 241",

Les autorités remarquerent, cependant, que le congre était muni d'une artillerie plus considérable que ne portent habituellement les bâtiments de commerce, et qu'il y avait en outre beaucoup d'armes d'abordage. Hedges annonçait cependant comme son intention de revenir bientôt, qu'il existait des complots contre lui, après l'avoir fait signer un engagement s'abstiendrait de tout trafic sur les côtes que baigne la mer de Behring.\n\nJawortha lui permit de quitter le port, en considération surtout du but qu'il donnait à son voyage - Etrangers. Peu de temps après des bâtiments venus de Petro pawlost y repandirent le bruit qu'il y avait eu un engagement entre l'équipage d'un navire américain et les naturels de la côte (Tschukts-chis) et que 12 de ces derniers avaient été tués. Le 24 Août le même Conque rentrait à Patro pawlosk sous pavillon des Etats-Unis d'Amérique.\n\nChez le gouverneur, Hedges se présentait de nouveau. Interpellé sur le nom du Capitaine auquel il avait consigné sa cargaison, il répondit qu'il ne s'en souvenait pas, mais qu'il commandait la corvette \"Dedalus\". Interrogé ensuite pour savoir s'il n'avait pas connaissance d'un combat avec les Tschuktschis. Il déclara qu'il en avait entendu vaguement parler par des baleiniers, et qu'il en ignorait entièrement tous les détails. L'ambiguïté de ces réponses, l'air embarrassé de Hedges, l'armement de son navire qui était presque celui d'un pirate, décidèrent le capitaine Jaworka à ordonner à la Douane d'effectuer, par une revision sommaire, de se composer la cargaison du Conque.\n\nOn sut ainsi qu'il y avait à bord une quantité considérable: des dents de morse, des patrons armes de Tschuktochis, des habits à leur usage. Du chum. Du thé et du tabac. Il ne restait ainsi aucun doute que Hedges avait manqué à l'engagement qu'il avait pris de ne faire aucun trafic avec les naturels de la côte. Pour mieux s'assurer...",

        "content_text": "Le Capitaine Zawoitas était occupé à charger une commission de faire une enquête. Il ordonna d'envoyer des sentinelles à bord. À peine avait-il donné cet ordre que le loupre arbora le pavillon Britannique, et qu'un certain Stratten se rendit à terre, qui déclara être le capitaine du navire \"La Marthe\". Et produisit des papiers de bord qui établissaient en effet la nationalité anglaise de ce bâtiment.\n\nL'enquête eut cependant lieu. Le capitaine du port en chargea le sous-lieutenant Goubareff. Cet employé était assisté de M. Khamiakoff et de l'auditeur supérieur Soltyshoff.\n\nNous avons joint à ce rapport les pièces de cette enquête.\n\nCes pièces montrent que, d'après les lettres de mer, le navire \"Martha\" du capitaine Stratten, jaugeant 153 tonneaux, appartient à Mr John Armstrong, marchand anglais habitant le port de Victoria de l'île de Hong Kong. Qu'il est confié au commandement de Stratten, et que sa destination est pour les îles Sandwich et autres de l'océan Pacifique.\n\nHedges n'est point porté sur les rôles de l'équipage. Stratten déclare que celui-ci était à bord, comme subrécargue, et qu'il lui avait momentanément confié le commandement à cause de sa connaissance des côtes du Kamtchatka.\n\nLes déclarations écrites de Hedges et Stratten, en réponse aux questions qui leur furent adressées par la commission d'enquête, n'expliquent aucunement les circonstances mystérieuses et le véritable but de l'apparition du navire sur nos côtes.\n\nLe relevé de la cargaison qui se trouvait à bord du navire, et dont la liste est annexée, semble offrir quelques renseignements sur son expédition.\n\nIl apparaît que le navire était engagé dans un commerce illicite avec les naturels de la Côte, et que l'armement qu'il portait indique que non seulement il avait été fait dans la prévision des dangers que courait le navire, mais peut-être dans des vues d'agression.\n\nUne quantité de dents de morse, d'habits et d'ustensiles qui étaient à bord prouvent la pratique du commerce avec les naturels, mais que l'espionnage n'était pas incompatible avec les intentions des étrangers, qui de tout côté étaient signalés à nos autorités.\n\nPage 91",

Ditropawlork, interprétant trop largement l'article XI de la convention de St. Pétersbourg du 10 Février 1828, conclut avec Cafrands Aretaque la permission de reprendre la marchandise confisquée par le Général de la Sibérie Occidentale des faits qui résultaient de sa poursuite.\n\nLe dossier de l'enquête qu'il a présenté contient la copie des papiers de bord présentés par ledit capitaine et certifiés conformes.\n\nEn vous transmettant de nouvelles copies que j'en ai fait tirer, ainsi que des questions posées par la commission d'enquête à ces deux individus, je prie V.E. de vouloir bien les communiquer à M. l'Ambassadeur de S.M. Britannique à St. Pétersbourg et lui demander d'une part de faire constater si le navire \"La Martha\" appartient réellement à la marine nationale Anglaise, et de l'autre, après avoir établi que le délit de commerce illicite a été commis en liaison avec les naturels, obtenir la position des coupables.\n\nSi nous avons peut-être le droit de reprocher aux autorités d'un port de mer militaire d'avoir donné une interprétation trop large au dit article, qui même ne se rapporte pas à nos établissements sur la côte de la Sibérie Orientale, le Gouch. Bertache de son côté jugera sans doute qu'il en résulte d'autant plus l'obligation d'appliquer les principes de la justice avec impartialité.\n\nVous voudrez bien, M. le Ministre, appeler l'attention sur l'armement suspect de ce navire qui fait peser sur lui le soupçon de livrer à la piraterie. L'amirauté Anglaise qui s'efforce à l'avenir d'établir partout la sécurité des mers, ne manquera pas, sans doute, de faire rechercher quel but \"La Martha\" poursuivait en transportant 5 pièces de canon et une quantité considérable d'armes qui peuvent servir à l'abordage.\n\nElle trouvera probablement utile de faire soumettre les hommes de l'équipage à un interrogatoire propre à constater s'ils ont eu un engagement sanglant avec les naturels, habitants de nos côtes, et si ces derniers ont été punis.\n\nIl se trouve à bord de \"La Martha\" un citoyen des États-Unis d'Amérique, le médecin Royle, qui a délivré un certificat, et que le natif a précédemment rapporté avoir vu.\n\nJ'ai l'intention d'inviter M. Rodine à recommander au cabinet de Washington de faire de son côté des recherches sur tous les faits dont je viens d'entretenir.\n\nJe joins à cette dépêche une copie de la lettre que j'ai écrite à M. l'Ambassadeur de S.M.

But on the contrary, the functions of those most official and the public matters to which they relate are so intimately connected to each other that much public advantage would arise from those functions being performed in unity.\n\nOne and the same person. Unity of system and combination of duties would thus be attained.\n\nI annex the minutes on the subject of the change in the form of government in H.K.\n\nI am afraid, however, that the thought of the policy of the original change (which is wholly unexplained in that minute) should therefore be divulged to perform. While in Hong Kong, all the duties would be performed during the absence of the Governor. The duties which in such cases respectively usually belong to a Lieutenant Governor.\n\nG. 15/4\n\n1.

        "content_text": "The Hongkong Register.\n\nHONGKONG, TODAY, MAY 20, 1856.\n\nNOTICE The Hours PUBLIC WORSHIP in the Cathedral Church of St. John will be on Sandays at 3 to 7 4 A.M., and at 8 A.M.\n\n...\n\nThere will, we expect, not be many opinions on the subject.\n\nWe shall have a little more to say on the plans, but in the meantime we continue with the history of Mr Cleverly's doings according to the Colonial Secretary, who says, in addition to Mr. Cleverly not having given authority, \"that he could not have inspected the works,\" on the ground as we before quoted, \"of the work not having appeared above low water mark until after his departure.\"\n\n...\n\nThe case of the two plans, as it stands on the words of the four lot-holders contra the government, is perfectly clear and strong, but it received unexpected support from another quarter.\n\nThe lot-holder of the lot near Prider's wharf found himself exactly in the same predicament, but being more amenable to the sweet persuasions of official power, he stood extracted-altered his plans, and we have lost Mr. Hiller; we have nothing but the benefit of his acquiescence in still being permitted to carry away earth for filling in.\n\n...\n\nBy the Singapore papers we perceive that the first criminal sessions held by the new local Recorder Sir Richard Macdonell, had terminated after postponement of several days in consequence of the absence of the mail.\n\nMany of our readers are perhaps aware that there is a Grand Jury at the Straits, which has the right of making presentments at the close of their labors.\n\nThe Singapore Grand Jury has a long list of complaints, but by some of the complaints having been repeatedly reiterated, the Jury seem a strong edition of wisdom crying aloud in the streets and no one regarding her.\n\n...\n\nThe Jurors would further present the inefficiency of the Interpreters of the Court, especially the Chinese, and while it is by no means a matter of doubt whether individuals of that nation are under any circumstances to be relied on in responsible capacity, in a Settlement such as this, where the Interpreter may be said to have the power of life and death in his hands.\n\n...\n\nWe wonder if this be at all applicable to our island.\n\nThat it has been, is tolerably certain from the exposure made in the Police Court some time ago, but the question is-Is it now?\n\nWe drove away through our niggardliness the one useful effective European Chinese interpreter Mr. Cleverly to have expressed approval or disapproval of the Wall, as it was not till some two or three days after his departure that the work appeared above low water.\n\n...\n\nOn the 20th Feb., Mr. Weise called on the Acting Surveyor General.\n\nCaptain Cowper showed Mr. Weiss a plan, stating, \"that being the Acting Surveyor General, even was the one which he would recommend to the Government to adopt.\"\n\nThis again is in opposition to what is stated by the Colonial Secretary, who says the plan was ready and lying in the Surveyor General's Office on the 11th December.\n\n...\n\nThe ground taken by the government is rather of a shifting nature, but let us try to define it.\n\nThere seems to be no question that the Acting Surveyor General showed Mr. Weise a plan on the 20th February.\n\nNow, the question is-Was the plan then shown the same plan as that asserted to have been in the office on the 11th December, and was it at that time approved of by the Governor?\n\n...\n\nSHANGHAE RACES.\n\nSPRING MEETING.\n\nThe sport of this meeting was less exciting than we had hoped for from the programme, although the weather was fine.\n\nThe favorite, Bowle, proved himself the most contemptible cat that ever ran round a course at the start.\n\n...\n\nWROBENO PLATE-Four ponies started for this race- Grapeshot 2ok the lead to the turn, when the Pekin Pet took up the running, and after a good race came in a winner by half a length; Spots again in the rear.\n\n...\n\nPAUL-BUEN CUP-This although considered the race of the meeting, turned out the most hollow one of the day.\n\nCar Tushu, the favorite, proved himself the most contemptible cat that ever ran round a course at the start she jumped off with the lead, immediately wasted upon by Cheerful, who forced the running, and before reaching the first half-mile post, passed the rival writer, who from that point put by the shutter, and Cheerful came in at a canter.\n\n...\n\nCOLONIAL SECRETARY'S OFFICE, VICTORIA, Hongkong, 27th March, 1856.\n\nGENTLEMEN, In replication to your letter of the 19th instant, I have to state\n\n1. That a plan of the Sea Wall has been lying in the Surveyor General's Office since the 11th December last, any time after which date it has been open to the inspection of yourselves or your contractor.\n\n2. That this plan was drawn by Captain Cowper under Mr. Cleverly's direction, and that consequently two different plans have never been submitted.\n\n...\n\nTo the Honorable W. T. MERCER, Esq., Colonial Secretary.\n\nSir,-We have the honor to acknowledge receipt of your letter of the 27th ultimo, and have given it that due consideration which it deserves.\n\nIn reply to it we regret that we can but repeat to you the general substance of our letter of the 19th ult.\n\n...\n\nEnclosure No. 1.\n\nVICTORIA, 18th March, 1856.\n\nSir, Being entreated by the owners of Marine Lots No. 103 & 104 recently sold by the Government, with the king's ap of said lots; I beg to ask you if you will allow my workmen, to take filling on the pile of Ground in the rear of the Government House and so to St. John's Cathedral,- am, Sir, Your excellent servant,\n\n(Signed) LUDWIG WIESE.\n\nTo Captain COWPER, Acting Surveyor General, Victoria.\n\n...\n\nCOLONIAL SECRETARY'S OFFICE, VICTORIA, Hongkong, 20 April, 1856.\n\nGENTLEMEN, I have placed your letter of 8th instant before His Excellency The Governor as requested by you.\n\nIt seems that you have committed an error in ascertaining the plan on which the Government required the Sea Wall to be built.\n\n...\n\nWe have submitted the matter to legal opinion and are informed, that it was the duty of Government, as we had ourselves considered, to have been prepared with the plan now adopted at the time of the sale of the land in question.\n\n...\n\n(Copy) No. 190, COLONIAL SECRETARY'S OFFICE, VICTORIA, Hongkong, 19th April, 1856.\n\nGENTLEMEN, I have to bring to your notice that the Acting Surveyor General has inspected the Sea Wall in course of construction in front of the Lots purchased by you on the 16th November last, and considers it faulty in construction, and not in accordance with the plan laid down by him, and exhibited at his office for the information and guidance of the contractor.\n\nI understand that the contractor for the whole wall along these four lots is engaged, and I beg therefore that instructions be given him by you to fulfill the remainder after the Surveyor General's plan, and to take immediate means for reconstructing the portion already begun, so that the whole work may be done after the same and uniform model used by the Acting Surveyor General.\n\n...\n\nHONGKONG, 1 May, 1856.\n\nSir,-We have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of 24th ulto. to which we now beg to offer a reply, taking for sake of convenience the various points referred to in your dispatch in the order in which they occur.\n\n...\n\nCOLONIAL SECRETARY'S OFFICE, VICTORIA, Hongkong, 1st May, 1856.\n\nGENTLEMEN, I have to bring to your notice that the Acting Surveyor General has inspected the Sea Wall in course of construction in front of the Lots purchased by you on the 16th November last, and considers it faulty in construction, and not in accordance with the plan laid down by him, and exhibited at his office for the information and guidance of the contractor.\n\n...\n\nPage 185\n\nTHE HONGKONG REGISTER.\n\nNo. 21.—May 20, 1856.\n\n...\n\nITHEATRICALS.\n\nThe following is a correct report of an address delivered by the manager of a small theatre in Iceland, where Mr. Rac was engaged to perform.\n\n...",

This union of HANGGON, PERANG, SINGAPORE, and in CHINA.\n\nqualities is fabled in their national legend of “Beauty and the Beast,\" yr, long before, in the Greek legend of Hermaphrodite. \"The two sexes are co-prezent in the English wind. I apply to Britannia, queen of seas and colonies, the words in which her latest novelist portrays his heroine: \"ake la as mild as she is game, and as game as she is mild.\" The English delight in the un- taganden which comhlars in one person the extremes of courage and tenderness. Nelson, dying at Trafalgar, sends his love to Lord Collingwood, and, like an inco- eent schoolboy that goes to bed, says, \"Kiss me Hardy,\" und turns to sleep. Lord Collingwood, his comrade, was of a nature the most affectionate and domestic.

The task is to proofread this text, correcting spelling errors, fixing spacing issues, rejoining broken sentences, and restoring paragraph breaks, all while preserving the original content and format as much as possible.\n\n## Step 2\nFirst, we need to identify and correct spelling errors. For example, \"Wongkong\" should be \"Hongkong\", \"sh. 1000j€rawa\" should be \"sh. 1000\", and \"Brit. bk 670 Dod\" should be \"Brit. bk 670 Dod\" (no change needed here, but \"Brit.\" is an abbreviation for \"British\" which is correct). \"Dut. 764 ric\" should be \"Dut. 764\", and \"Earl of Windeer\" should be \"Earl of Windsor\".\n\n## Step 3\nNext, we need to fix spacing issues. For instance, \"XCR (85)72\" should be \"XCR(85)72\", and \"GR 1178/1922/32 (III)\" should be \"GR1178/1922/32(III)\".\n\n## Step 4\nWe also need to rejoin broken sentences. The text contains many lines that are split due to OCR layout errors. For example, sentences that are broken across lines without a logical reason should be merged.\n\n## Step 5\nRestoring paragraph breaks is another crucial step. The OCR output may have incorrectly merged or split paragraphs. We need to format the text into proper paragraphs based on the content and logical breaks.\n\n## Step 6\nIndicate missing words with \"...\" if a word is clearly missing due to OCR damage.\n\n## Step 7\nThe text should be formatted in standard Markdown. This includes using headers (#, ##, ###), sub-headers, bold-type (**bold**), and tables using Markdown table syntax.\n\n## Step 8\nSince the text is a mix of different documents, including newspaper articles and court transcripts, we need to be careful not to rephrase or rewrite the content. The task is to correct errors and improve formatting without changing the style, tone, or word choice.\n\n## Step 9\nNo translation of text is required, and file references should not have any spacing inside parentheses.\n\n## Step 10\nPage numbering lines, if detected (usually six lines in total, three at the page beginning and three at the end), should be kept as they are, as they were originally used during scanning to delineate page metadata.\n\n## Step 11\nThe output should be in HTML using  for paragraphs and \n only if absolutely necessary.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\n324\n\n25\n\n[NO. 6.

The Jury, a special one, awarded the Plaintiff $1,010, it will be remembered, subject to the Judge's decision on the low point raised by Defendant's Counsel; and our readers, no doubt, are desirous of knowing what has been the result of the matter, and how the disputed point has been arranged. But though, as we have remarked, it is upwards of a month since the trial was reported, from that day to the present we have not heard a word of the threatened kroviment;---so, as the time allowed for the mo time was for some time expired, the verdict of the Jury stands. So much for the verdict whether the award will be forthcoming, or whether we shall obtain even a refund of the costs out of pocket \"are problems the solution of which has yet to be told of \n\nThe Editor of the China Mail, in strictures exhibiting the most extraordinary feeling of sympathy for a suspicious character it has ever been our lot to read, has told the world that, owing to the unjust confinement to which Ah Lum has been subjected, being unable personally to look after his office--he, Ah Lum, is now declared to have become Bankrupt and will have to pass through the Insolvent Court\" and, adds the Editor with an evident hug of gratulation, there will possibly (the italics are ours) be some \"difficulty in recovering the amount of damages.\" Possibly there may--but, at all events, we are placed, by the verdict of one of the most respectable juries ever empanelled in this Colony, in a position to challenge the Insolvent's Balance sheet; and should it be, as we shall not be surprised to find, that Ah Lum's bankruptcy is due as much to his very proper stoppage at business here as to some astounding malversation in the shape of lawyer's fees, or payment of hireling scribes the facts will duly be made patent to the public, and, it will be hoped, produce a salutary effect that the Jury's award will not be altogether lost \n\nThe arrival of the mail prevented the intention of noticing in our last issue a very interesting letter in the Hongkong Register of Tuesday, signed a Catholic Missionary, and of which the intelligent Redacteur of that paper thus remarks.--- \n\nWe publish better from a Roman Catholic Missionary. in reply to some observations by a contemporary as to what ought to be the course of the French in China in his opinion. We don't of course agree with the remarks of our contemporary but we entirely agree with the letter which we publish. Neither the fact nor the spirit are in good taste, and an easy answer could be time to both were worth while which is not. \n\nWhether the letter in question is a reply to our observations--whether it is \"bad taste\" (as one reverend Father disclaims it)--or whether the subject is worth while to notice are all points on which we shall leave our readers to form their own opinions. Here is a translation of such parts of the letter necessary to an understanding of it, and appended is an extract from the speech of His Lordship the Bishop of Victoria, on the 5th of May last, the spirit of which, it rejoices us to find, is entirely in consonance with the honestionsa which May last, the spirit of which, it rejoices us to find, is not our contemporary does not think it worth while to notice. \n\nTranslation, \n\nReferring to the Anglo-French alliance on the China question--the author of the article accuses the French of a desire to impose their religion on Canton by means of bayonets, amusing it (religion) to serve their ambition.\"This alliance so surely desired by Great Britain rests, it is true, on different interests.

The business of the Empire seems to go on as quietly and regularly as ever, but the state of the finances continues to be the absorbing topic at head quarters.

He lives in days which have more significance than years in the career of many of his predecessors and all his acts are momentous.

All the resources of the country have been gathered up and made the most of, and every corner of the Empire within and without has been ransacked to furnish aid in India's great extremity.

Let the owners of water pay 3 cash per load for the water man's wages.\n\nFire—Hongkong ought to put up a reward or prize for any who shall seize a water or miscreant in any Mandarine's employment; and when masters of these shall be convicted under evidence, let a reward of hundred dollars be given to the informer.\n\nAlso, should any shop or dwelling house for want of care allow fire to kindle, let the offender be taken up and receive a thrashing of one hundred blows, made to carry it for three months correction, for not being careful against fire and the sin of involving others. Thus by the establishment of such a rule, men would certainly be careful against the grievous accident with catching animosity.\n\nBarbarians—At present the Mandarines of China have laid an embargo on Hongkong—prohibiting intercourse. Vessels going and passing boats from the neighboring places around perhaps come, perhaps not; perhaps several unite in coming together, to guard against the sea pirates they thus unite. Now the Mandarines have put out a proclamation prohibiting the Chinese from coming to Hongkong, but permitting their return home. We hear it stated that the Mandarines have thus fixed the time to the 1st month of next year—February 1857—before which none are to go or come; if they do they are to be seized as transgressors, and dealt with accordingly. Now although the hoted time has not arrived, still all the vessels that arrive at Hongkong, whether from city or village, should be carefully examined by some trusty conductor of a government boat, as to their business, whence from, name and surname, their age and appearance, and where they intended going in Hongkong; of which write in a book by which there will be a means of examining into the matter. Also, let each vessel examined for soldiers, implements of war, or other suspicious instruments. Examine the oven on board, whether they have anything suspicious in their appearance, and search their persons to see if they have any daggers about them, or any traitorous letters or clues of wicked devices, instantly examining everything on board, after which allow them to go on shore. As the present is a time of war, if there are traitors among the people of Hongkong, many of them rebels taking refuge; besides the men without employment will be many, poor and it is difficult for these to accept to any other occupation. The thieves, though numerous, will be found willing to observe the Laws, and will certainly not be the disturbers of the peace. Their machinations are at war, and it will be found exceeding difficult to effect a translation—apparently the subtle proclamation broadcast over the English were to select a crew of sturdy lads among those who frequent the brothels dispersed over the City. These are principally boasted above spies. Whichever is virtuous, without reference to his claracter, enrolling him as an assistant with $7, $5, $3, implements, the patriotic and bold, and act in unison leader, as actor, may take lodgings in them.

Suppose the Mandarines and gentry should secretly and in concert at a given time to set fire to the prostitutes' houses, poison the wells, and make an united attack both from the kind and out.\n\nMoreover, they would break the Embargo, placed on Hongkong and also in cutting off supplies, we fear all the dire that like an hell become a reality.\n\n| Jan.

The original intention was, I believe, that Sir John Bowring should, as a matter of dignity, have the title of Governor, but that the Lieutenant Governor should do the practical work of Administration. Sir John, however, soon took the whole into his own hands, and then preferred a claim for extra salary on that account. The answer was that the Government could not, in addition to his Consular salary, pay both the Governor and a Lieutenant Governor. We have fired Sir John for one avowed advocate of financial reforms, as he proposes that the Lieutenant Governor should be relieved and pensioned. He clearly could not have aspired to a pension from Superannuation Fund; Hong Kong hardly seems in a position to afford one. The Treasury in their present letter remind us of a statement made elsewhere.\n\nThe suggestion that he must make no increases of salary until the deficit is provided for, has been anticipated in a draft now in circulation.\n\nLord Carnarvon has lately stated the failure of the scheme for the government of the colony largely due to J. Bowring's determination to assume it himself, in spite of the distance of Palmerston. But, having assumed it, he ought to be able to get his salary as Governor for the work which he thus assumed.\n\nI am afraid the suggestion about employing Mr. Caine's client is mainly made for the sake of decorum in the administration of the government.\n\nIf Sir J. Bowring had been allowed to do so, he cannot be hit for such employment thereafter.\n\nIf you or Sir George Grey wish it, I would refer to the papers about Sir J. Bowring's original appointment, timely and lucid (cf. Caine's letters). By collecting information from the records, the transactions when they came under review in 1854...\n\nPage 60\nPage 61\n\nApr 19",

        "content_text": "Car\n\n370\n\nthe Police Court, if Mr May had not been there. Grand-Pré was certainly not equal to such a case.\n\n(88)\n\nMr\n\nI recollect, although I had quite forgotten it until shortly before this Commission commenced sitting, that Mr May lent me his memoranda for two or three days. As I found they had nothing immediately to do with the cases under investigation, which were already cumbered enough, I told Mr May that I thought he had better say nothing about them until some occasion should arise on which they would be clearly useful. I recollect also, when the efforts for obtaining a pardon for Ma-chow Wong were going on, that Mr May again asked me if he should mention them to the Government. As by that time I had learnt that Mr May was supposed to be actuated by jealous and hostile feelings towards Mr Caldwell, and as also the Government were in possession of the originals from which the memoranda were taken, I told Mr May, that I should certainly not volunteer their production to the Government. I must confess, however, that my recollection of the memoranda is very imperfect indeed, and that they never made the strong impression upon me which they ought to have done.\n\nJOHN SCARTH, Esq., a member of the Commission, -Called at his own request.\n\nI wish to make the following statement, as my name has been mentioned several times in the evidence and papers before the Commission.\n\nWhen the disturbances began in Canton at the end of 1856, a man came to me and told me that some pirate boats were said to have been taken outside by some of the ships of war, but that the boats were not pirate but rebel boats. He stated that he felt sure that Ma-chow Wong was using his influence against the men, and requested me to endeavour to have some inquiry made, as he heard the men were going to be given over to the Mandarins. My informant was one of the Shanghae rebels. I went to the Police Office and saw Mr Grand-Pré and Mr May. The bulk of the statement was heard by Mr Grand-Pré; Mr May came in just as I concluded. I told him that I had been told that Ma-chow Wong, who was formerly in close connection with the so-called rebels who held Shanghae, had turned against them, having been bribed by the Mandarins with a blue button which they would find in the house, and a white button which they would find in the house of one of his wives. I stated that he had given the information about these boats being taken, and that he was now trying to injure the rebels as much as he could. I said that the man who informed me could bring evidence to show that the men were rebels. Mr Grand-Pré told me Ma-chow Wong was Mr Caldwell's informer, and that he would see about it. I told him that he had better tell Mr Caldwell. I heard nothing more of the matter until I saw the men given up at Kowloong. I was afterwards informed that several sailors had been kidnapped in a systematic manner, by engaging them in Lorchas and then handing them over to the Chinese Authorities for the rewards for heads. I went immediately and reported the circumstance to Mr Caldwell\n\nI did not notice any particular effect produced by Mr Caldwell's presence on the bench at the commencement of Ma-chow Wong's case. I did mention to the Acting Colonial Secretary, that I thought Mr Caldwell had better not sit on the bench during the inquiry against Ma-chow Wong, but I did not speak at all strongly; and the Acting Colonial Secretary immediately said, \"Oh, I have arranged about that; only, if anything very strong is said about him in Court, I hope you will send for him.\" Mr Stace brought up Ma-chow Wong's bail after his commitment, Lai Sze-kai was not one on that occasion. I really am afraid to say anything about my recollection of the contents of the memoranda; I recollect that their general nature has been correctly described.\n\nI rather think that there is a notice in Chinese characters outside the Magistracy that bribery is not allowed.\n\nI recollect in the debate on the Registration Ordinance, in council, that the Governor said an order had been given to do something-I did not hear what-in reference to not proceeding with the second indictment; and I heard the Attorney General say, \"Nobody in the world has power to give such an order;\" but I cannot say whether the words \"Nolle prosequi\" were used.\n\nabout it, until Mr Wade's translation of the papers found at Namtow proved that men had been taken,\n\nMy impression from what was said in Council on the 10th and 14th of May certainly was, that His Excellency and the Acting Colonial Secretary were convinced that Mr Caldwell had cleared himself from the charges then brought against him, and that there was no need of further inquiry.\n\nMy strong impression is, that I did hear the Acting Colonial Secretary say in debate, that he saw no harm in Mr Caldwell's servants being interested in brothels, and, on being reminded that it might lead to improper persons being licensed to keep brothels, I certainly think I did hear him say, that as any person wishing to become a brothel-keeper must be an improper person, that would be of no consequence.\n\ntendered in support of the charges, the commission would [The Chairman intimated that no further evidence being proceed at the next meeting to hear Mr Caldwell's defence.]\n\nTWENTY THIRD DAY.\n\nWednesday, 14th July, 1858, at 12 o'clock Noon.\n\nPresent,-All the Members.\n\nfollowing statement:-\n\nMr Caldwell being called on for his defence, made the\n\ning to the accusations brought against me by the Honour-\n\nThe only difficulty which presents itself to me in reply-\n\nable the Attorney General and the Superintendent of Police, arises from the great volume of the depositions. It\n\nmay well happen that a person, inexperienced as I am in\n\n(89)\n\ndissecting evidence, may, in going over the evidence of\n\nof what he had said being so much more favorable to the\n\nprosecution than his own personal evidence.\n\nmore than 50 witnesses, covering about 100 printed pages, omit some point apparently telling against himself, but capable of easy explanation. Should such prove to be the case, the Commission will I trust direct my attention to any charge not dealt with by me, for it is my desire to flinch from no portion of this extraordinary investigation.\n\nBut\n\nCharge No. 4 rests entirely upon the recollection by Mr Inglis of an isolated fact, which is supposed to have taken place about 14 years ago. The evidence adduced by me as to the date of the birth of my first child, and the situation of certain localities, will, I am certain, when added to the positive testimony of Mrs Caldwell and myself, convince the Commission that Mr Inglis has undesignedly mistaken one person for another.\n\nBefore proceeding to the evidence, I must notice who and what the witnesses are who have been called in support of the charges. There is hardly one of any importance who can be considered independent or unbiassed.\n\nCharge No. 5: It will hardly be necessary for me to detail at length the evidence which must have convinced the Commission, that although nominally I appeared in the equally with myself; Roberts and Lyons, who have, within the last three weeks, received great promotion in the Police Crown Books the owner of certain property in this Colony; force at Mr May's recommendation; Assow, the Interpreter; Aheen, Mr May's Lokong, and Yoong Ayoong Mr May's own servant. On these seven does the case for the prosecution mainly rest; and wherever an attempt has been made to travel beyond them, it has resulted in a contradiction or a break-down.\n\nCharge No. 14 has not I believe been attempted to be proved.\n\nCharge No. 15: Mr May comes forward in support of this charge, and states the fact to have been within his own knowledge; he is to a certain degree supported by Mr Woods, but the evidence of the latter is neutralised by his statement that all Tai-ping-shan houses were at the time brothels, which certainly was not the case, and Mr Woods assigns no other reason for his belief. Mr May's testimony has been so unsatisfactory throughout this inquiry, that no reliance can, I trust, be placed upon him when unsupported; and I beg most solemnly to deny, that I have ever at any time been the owner of any brothels in this colony; and if the Commission require it, I am prepared to prove the untruth of Mr May's statement, in the most satisfactory manner.\n\nEven where, as with Pang-wa-ping, there is no ostensible connection between the Police and the witness, Roberts, or some one else, would appear to have been distorting his statements; and when I find Mr Anstey resting for his facts entirely upon Mr May, Mr May acknowledging to having given Roberts and Lyons advice and directions as to the mode in which the case was to be got up, Lyons attempting to put words into Boggs's mouth, and perverting conversations held with myself and others, Roberts laying a deliberate trap for the officers of the Eaglet, and Roberts and Lyons so speedily earning the reward of their energy and activity, I do not, without warrant, charge all these seven with a combined attempt to support the loose statements of Mr Anstey, by getting up evidence to fit them.\n\nCharge No. 16: If Assow the Interpreter could be believed, this charge might be considered as made out. But the mere attempt to produce such a witness as Assow, and the gross untruths he has been convicted of, when produced, will I hope be considered by the Commission an important feature in the whole case. The groundless assertion that Shaplok is Mrs Caldwell's sister by adoption, rests on Assow's statement, and is denied by my wife and myself; but when Assow attempts to prove that Shaplok, within a certain time, kept a brothel in a certain street, which he personally visited, he is convicted of falsehood by Eep Awong, and others, and I am supported by the evidence of Mr Mitchell.\n\nCharge No. 2 affords the most remarkable instance upon throughout this investigation, of the flimsy materials which Mr Anstey has based the most serious charge against me.\n\nIt appears from the evidence of Mr May, Yoong Ayoong, and Lum Aleen, the two first of whom contradict each other, that Mr May having, through his servant made some inquiry of the tenant of a rice shop as to its owner, informed Mr Anstey that I was the owner of the adjoining brothel No. 48, not a syllable having in reality passed between the several parties as to such brothel.\n\nFoong Afie, Soong Ahing, and Wong Aping-and Mr Mitchell fixes an additional stigma on him. Mr May has evidently relied much on this witness, and it would have been worth his while to have ascertained his real character from Mr Mitchell before he was included among the seven witnesses.\n\nCharge No. 17: No attempt has ever been made. I believe, I have fully explained to the Commission the circumstances under which Mrs Caldwell looks after her sister's property. But the mixing up of brothel-holding with this question of property, is a malicious charge, for which there was never at any time any pretext.\n\nI must also remark on the singular fact, that Lum Aleen was attempted to be made out to have left the Colony, the statement",

        "content_text": "Paris. Jan 29/59.\n\nEarl Cowley. No. 198\n\nHongkong\n\nParis, le 27 janvier.\n\nNous recevons les détails suivants sur l'accident arrivé, dans les mers de Chine, à la corvette française le Laplace, à bord de laquelle se trouvait le baron Gros, ainsi que le personnel de l'ambassade française :\n\nHong Kong, le 12 décembre. Parti de Shang-Haï, le 27 novembre, pour se rendre à Hong-Kong y rejoindre l'Audacieuse et continuer ensuite sa route pour Tourane, la corvette française le Laplace a échoué tout à coup le dimanche 28 novembre, à une heure de l'après-midi, sur des bancs qui s'étendent au nord de l'Île de Tai-Shan. La vitesse acquise par le bâtiment était alors de plus de 9 milles à l'heure. Un temps couvert et peut-être aussi une erreur de position occasionnée par les courants ont été la cause de ce malheureux événement. Toutefois, aucun choc n'ayant été ressenti au moment de l'échouage, il fut bientôt évident que le navire était dans la vase et non sur le sable ou sur des roches; s'il en eût été autrement, le Laplace eut infailliblement péri corps et biens.\n\nLa position n'en était pas moins critique. Le bâtiment, soulevé par la mer, qui se brisait dessus, talonnait avec violence; son gouvernail était démonté, une partie de ses ancres et de ses embarcations perdue, et trois de ses marins, qui s'étaient dévoués pour tenter de porter à terre une amarre de sauvetage, avaient péri sans qu'il eût été possible de leur porter secours.\n\nA huit heures du soir, le commandant annonça qu'il ne conservait aucun espoir de sauver son navire, et chacun se prépara, en conséquence, à gagner le rivage comme il le pourrait, en emportant sur soi ce qu'il avait le plus à cœur de ne pas perdre. Cependant le vent était devenu moins violent vers le soir, et une embarcation, plus heureuse que la première, put gagner la terre avec un officier et quelques hommes d'équipage. Ils s'empressèrent aussitôt de faire parvenir à Shang-Haï et à Ning-Po des lettres faisant connaître la position du Laplace, et demandant de prompts secours.\n\nLa nuit du 28 au 29, la journée du 29 et la nuit du 29 au 30 n'en furent pas moins des plus cruelles pour les passagers du Laplace. Ce bâtiment, soulevé par les vagues, retombait en frappant le fond, et avançait d'une manière sensible vers la côte. Le 1 décembre enfin, le temps se remit au beau, et aussitôt les jonques du pays, que le canon d'alarme avait inutilement appelées jusqu'alors, arrivèrent en grand nombre. Elles reçurent l'artillerie, les munitions, le lest, les vivres de la corvette; une ancre, la seule qui restât à bord, fut mouillée au large et à la marée haute; le navire ainsi allégé put, sans trop d'efforts, se haler en quelque sorte et se trouver à flot dans 8 mètres d'eau sans que sa machine et sa coque fussent sensiblement avariées.\n\nLe 2 décembre, le Nimrod et la canonnière l'Opossum, de la marine britannique, arrivèrent l'un de Ning-Po, avec le consul d'Angleterre, l'autre de Shang-Haï, ayant à bord le consul de France. Celui-ci apportait la nouvelle que le navire l'Inflexible devait arriver le jour même au secours du Laplace. Pleinement rassuré sur le sort de ce bâtiment, le baron Gros résolut en conséquence de s'embarquer avec le personnel de son ambassade sur le Nimrod pour se rendre à Shang-Haï où il arriva le 6. Il repartit immédiatement pour Hong-Kong sur le paquebot l'Aden.\n\nEn arrivant en vue de ce port, ce navire ayant, pour annoncer la présence de l'ambassadeur de France à son bord, arboré les trois couleurs à son grand mât, l'amiral Seymour y envoya aussitôt son capitaine de pavillon. En même temps, tous les bâtiments en rade hissaient leurs couleurs et saluaient l'ambassadeur de dix-neuf coups de canon. Le baron Gros, après s'être rendu à bord du Calcutta pour remercier l'amiral Seymour des secours si empressés de la marine britannique, descendit à terre où l'accueil le plus cordial lui a été fait. Reçu au débarcadère par le gouverneur par intérim à la tête de la garnison sous les armes, salué par les canons de tous les forts, il a été conduit dans la voiture du gouverneur au club de Hong-Kong où un appartement lui avait été préparé.\n\nLusty\n\n140",

        "content_text": "3595 Hong Kong RECEIVED 3595 5/APR 1859.\n\nPROPOSED MINUTE OF PROTEST AGAINST \"THE BOWRING PRAYA.\"\n\n207\n\nA draft Ordinance entitled \"An Ordinance to provide for the Erection of a Public Way along the Water Frontage of the City of Victoria\" having been read the first time at the sitting of the Legislative Council on Tuesday the 4th January instant, and so read by a majority of the Council against the vote of the undersigned; and the undersigned having given due notice of his intention to protest against the second reading of the said Ordinance, doth protest accordingly, and as follows:--\n\nFirst. Because any legislation whatsoever upon the subject is wholly superfluous. The line of the proposed Praya runs entirely over Crown Land, and no act of the Legislature can be necessary to entitle the Crown to construct a public way upon Crown property. Moreover, as the Crown in its Lease reserves to itself the right of re-entry and resumption upon \"full and fair compensation\" for every tenant-right affected, the undersigned cannot see the necessity of any legislation upon the subject. It cannot be necessary even on the score of providing the requisite facilities for carrying out the work, as the undersigned affirms (under competent legal advice) that the Crown is invested by accumulative local Ordinances, with overwhelming powers of entry upon private premises in the person of its Surveyor General, for any public purpose whatsoever.\n\nIt cannot be necessary on the score of providing a machinery for the adjustment of trespasses committed upon Crown rights by Marine Lot Holders, by reclamations of ground from the sea, all such encroachments having been measured by the Surveyor General nearly a year and a half ago, an equitable rent exacted and paid therefor, at a rate fixed by the Crown itself; and the original Lot and supplementary parcel re-registered as a whole in the Books of the Land Office,—the old difficulty having been thus finally and for ever adjusted.\n\nThe undersigned accordingly protests against this measure as a piece of superfluous legislation.\n\nSecondly. The undersigned protests against this Ordinance on the grounds that the expenditure to which it would conduct is in broad violation of those principles of \"good management\" and strict economy in the administration of the finances of this Colony, which the Imperial Government can have hardly failed to have inculcated upon H. E. the Governor as recently as March 1858, in conformity with a certain correspondence which the undersigned will presently exhibit, and no doubt with a view that His Excellency might inculcate the same principles upon this Honourable Council. The Imperial Despatches no doubt warned His Excellency against allowing the Colony \"to fall into financial embarrassments\" through precipitate expenditure. They no doubt cautioned His Excellency against undertaking any Public Work, not called for by the immediate exigencies of the settlement, and within its immediate resources, inasmuch as Her Majesty's Government pointedly struck out the Bowring Praya from His Excellency's own indent, and excluded it from any allotment whatsoever in the Public Works of last year. The undersigned is unfortunately left to conjecture the spirit and substances of these Despatches, as His Excellency did not think proper to communicate even an abstract of them to this Honourable Council, or even allude to their existence. His Excellency was pleased merely to read to the Council, as their sole guide on the Praya Question, when\n\nPage 208\n\n \n(continue on next page)\n\n...",

The increase of Revenue is derived from two items alone. The first is an increase on the returns of the Excise farms, which sold in April for £12,000 more than the rate of last year. The other item arises from fact that in our accounts for the the present year we will have twelve \n\nin \n\nsea \n\n(15 \n\nregretted, either by the Customs employés, or by the Foreign Mercantile Community of Chies.

The gratulation of the merchants is much more easily understood, Abuut a year age, the Briel Government thought it to publish a Memorandum which had Buxted from Mr. Lay'e pun, and which was not only called for in the siram. atanes, but not at all coneistant with ub.

On board stcamer, she was believed to be the Alabama; but it is just possible that she was the U. steaner 'yning which would equally well suit the des- cription. Whether the diabama is still in the neighbourhood of the Java or not, it is pretty certain that she has committed no more destruction tbere, \n\notherwise the crews of the cap- tured vessels would have been sure to turn up at some of the Dutch ports, \n\nAn amelioration of the regulations relating to the Exports of Arms from this Part, contained in the following Dotification, was published five days ago in the Government Gazelle.\" With reference to Notification No. 146, dated 28th October 1863, His Ho- the Governor has been pleas- ed to dispense with the prescribed de elaration in all cases in which Arms in reasonable quantities may be ex- ported from Ports in the Straits Set- thement to Cochin-China, Siam, the States in the Malayan Peninsula, or any of the Islands in the Easters Ar- chipelago.\" This will be esteemed a \n\nFPT \n\nThe germ of this affair has been tho quadron which arrived in Chins some time ago under the command of Lap twin Sherard Oshorne. The course which Captain Osborne should probably have parsed, was to have reported insett, on his arrival in the Yangtexs river, to the Governor General of the Two King, and to have given him delivery of the Fleet. Mr. Lay, however, is reported to have de. manded the direct recognition by Prince Kuug of Capt. Osborne, and to have de clined delivering over the vessels to aby local provincial officer. Tseng Ko-fan, to whom the Chinese Governatont desired the vessels to be given, is a man of great note, and rulos over not less than 20,000,000 of people, beeides possessing most extensive infance in the Chinese Empire. Mr. Lay, of all men, was to have been expected to have avoided the mistake of ignoring this mandarin; and people hore are surprised \n\nto the cause; and, moreover, that, of tha later number, some still lanhl out in the different parts of the city.

Majesty, in her far-seeing kindness, has not overlooked your Honour, and in now repairing to the Royal Presence, you return with honour to your home. May you soon come back, and may the benefits of your administration be again vouchsafed to your petitioners.\n\nThe old people will remember hanging upon your car when escorting you; and though absent, your memory will still remain with your petitioners, and your name will be as engraved on their lips. The very children shall welcome your return, and the beneficence of your rule shall be praised in songs.\n\nYour petitioners expecting the light of your grace to shine upon them, will look for your return until their gaze be lost in space; and in their hearts await on the mountain pass the coming of your happy star. They unite in this humble petition, and would, if possible, detain you. Kneeling they wish your honour perfect tranquillity, and beg your gracious perusal of this their petition.\"\n\nSigned by 196 of the principal firms and shops. Translated by Mr. Dick.\n\n(Signed) T. DICK, Chinese Secretary to the Supreme Court.\n\nNote by Translator.--The four large characters mean, \"A remembrance and expression by the whole population of virtuous and meritorious acts.\"\n\nActs addressed on the right side.--\"To his Excellency Caine, presented by the characters on the left side by the merchants, Tepos and others of the colony.\" The small slip of paper presented by the principal members of the Deputation at the first meeting to the Lieutenant-Governor, contains \"A presentation from the merchants, shop-keepers, and others of the colony, to his Excellency Caine, expressive of their high estimation of his many virtues.\"\n\nThe Deputation, consisting of several hundreds of the most respectable of the Chinese inhabitants, in full dress, were accompanied by several flags, bearing honourable inscriptions referring to Colonel Caine; besides six sedan chairs, containing fresh water, looking-glasses, &c., as is the usual custom on such occasions, implying \"Purity, Charity, and Virtue,\" a Chinese band was also in attendance, with fireworks and rockets.\n\nThe latter, the Lieutenant-Governor requested might not be exploded in the vicinity of the Hong Kong Club.”\n\nOn the day of Lieutenant-Governor Caine's departure from Hong Kong for England, 29th September, 1859, a great assemblage of the Chinese population met near the Parade Ground, bidding him farewell whilst going on board the mail steamer, and wishing him \"good wind and good water\" during his voyage.\n\n31\n\nThe Colonial Office Records prove that Lieutenant-Colonel Caine had subscribed to the Superannuation Fund from the 1st May, 1841, until such subscriptions were interdicted by notice from the Secretary of State for the Colonies, in 1857; and up to receipt of said notice Lieutenant-Colonel Caine had subscribed to the Superannuation Fund, as the Lieutenant-Governor of Hong Kong, for three years and three months; after which no further subscriptions were paid by any civil servants. Here is attached extract from Despatch No.38, of 30th November, 1859, from the Duke of Newcastle to the Governor of Hong Kong, referring to the remark on Lieutenant-Colonel Caine's case by the Lords of the Treasury. They have no power to grant a pension to Colonel Caine, but that having regard to the extended and valued services of this officer at Hong Kong, between 1841 and 1859, and to the circumstances of the abolition of his office, with a view to the interests of the public service, &c.;\" and, after the remonstrance of Lieutenant-Colonel Caine, the Lords of the Treasury were again pleased to recognize his services.---- Vide Despatch from the Colonial Office, dated 24th January, 1860.\n\n\"I am desired to acquaint you that the additional information which has thus been brought to their Lordships' notice, as to the nature of your colonial services at Hong Kong, and the circumstance of your quitting office, have led them to the opinion, that your case is one which may be dealt with under the provisions of the recent Act of Parliament, regulating the grant of superannuation allowances; and that it is also a case in which their Lordships would be justified in granting the highest rate allowed in a case of abolition of office.\"\n\nThe pension was liberal, being £1,050 per annum.\n\n555\n\nG\n\nK",

T. MERCER, Colonial Secretary.**\n\n## NOTICE\n\nEMIGRATION OFFICE, HONGKONG, 20th December, 1860.\n\nWhereas much ignorance prevails in this Port as to the Law and Regulations affecting Chinese Passenger Ships leading to perpetual reference, by Ship Masters and Merchants, to the Emigration Officer, for information on matters of ordinary detail and standing Rule: and whereas the Laws and Regulations alluded to are contained in various Imperial Acts, Local Ordinances and Proclamations and decisions of the Emigration Commissioners on matters arising out of the working of the system since it came into force:---(some of which documents are not easily procurable by the parties interested) it is therefore considered expedient by the Emigration Officer to publish in a condensed form the Rules in force in this Port relating to all Private Chinese Passenger Ships and Passengers, and as far as the provisions of the Imperial Act are concerned, to Ships chartered by a British Government Emigration Agent.\n\nAny vessel clearing with more than 20 Asiatic Passengers, on any Voyage of more than 7 days duration, is a \"Chinese Passenger Ship\" under the Act.\n\n1. The Ship laid on for passengers, the Master will notify the Emigration Officer by Letter of the fact, specifying the estimated number of passengers she can carry by Surveyor's Certificate, her destination, and the name of the Licensed Passage Broker employed.\n\nNote. After which, the Emigration Officer will take an early opportunity to inspect Ship.\n\n3. When the full quantity of passengers' provisions is on board the Master shall notify the Emigration Officer of the fact, who will as soon as possible thereafter, go off and inspect them.\n\nNote. The provisions must be all placed in the Tween decks or on the Upper deck, and not be stowed away in the Hold, until after inspection.\n\n9. When the Ship is ready to receive the passengers on board the Passage Broker will bring a written notice to that effect from the Master, when a time will be fixed for the attendance of the passengers at this Office to have their contract passage tickets explained and signed, in the presence of the Broker or his deputy.\n\nNote. This notice must be given at least 24 hours before the passengers appear at this Office, and on the same day the Master, with two approved sureties, will attend and execute the Bond under Section 1 of the Chinese Passenger Act 1855, and deposit the following documents :--\n\n1. Government Surveyor's Certificate of measurement and seaworthyness,\n2. Master's Certificate relative to Chinese Doctor (provided he fails in securing an European Surgeon for a reasonable remuneration.)\n3. Certificate under the Chop seals of two Chinese apothecary's Shops, vouching for competency of Doctor.\n4. List of provisions and medicines, according to the scale laid down in the Act, signed by the Master.\n5. Certificate of a resident Physician that he has examined the medicines, that they are good, and in accordance with the requirements of the Act.\n6. Passenger List in duplicate, with a Summary attached, specifying the numbers respectively of, Passengers under the Act, Cabin passengers, Crew, including Master and all persons on Ship's Articles; shewing total number of souls on board. Signed by Master.\n\nNote. Chinese Cooks, Stewards, Interpreter, Doctor, &c. are invariably passengers, berthed and fed with the others, although borne by Law on the Ship's Articles, for purposes of discipline. In future, their names, with their rating on board, will appear at the end of the passenger lists, and they will be included in the gross number that the ship can carry, but numerically they will be entered, as heretofore, under the head of \"Crew on Ship's Articles.\" About 4 Cooks and Stewards to every 100 passengers has been the rule.\n\n4. Either at this time or after the passengers are collected on board they must be inspected individually by a resident Surgeon, who must also inspect the Crew and give his Certificate that, none appear, by reason of any bodily or mental disease, unfit to proceed, or likely to endanger the health or safety of other persons about to proceed, in such Vessel.\n\n5. The Master will give notice when all the passengers are on board and when he wishes to clear for Sea.\n\nNote. The Broker must personally assure himself that every passenger is on board and report to that effect, after which the Emigration Officer will proceed on board, muster and count the passengers, and make a final inspection of the Ship.\n\nAfter this is done, and not before, the Ship is at liberty to shift her berth, if it is desired; the Master mentioning the fact to the Harbor Master; who will then deliver to him his Emigration Papers and Port Clearance.\n\nIn the fitting up and equipment of Chinese Passenger Ships the following general Rules will obtain\n\n1. Ships with full complement of passengers, shall carry boats according to the following scale, of size and description approved by the Emigration Officer :--\n\n| Registered Tons | Number of Boats |\n| --- | --- |\n| Less than 200 | 3 |\n| 200 to 400 | 4 |\n| 400 to 600 | 5 |\n| 600 to 1,000 | 5 |\n| 1,000 to 1,500 | 6 |\n| 1,500 and upwards | 6 |\n\nNote. In every case one boat must be a properly fitted Life boat, and one a Long boat.\n\n2. Ships must carry at least 2 Life buoys, slung, prepared for sudden emergencies.\n\n3. In the absence of a Forcepump and Hose, reaching fore and aft, a Ship must be provided with not less than 3 dozen buckets, in case of fire.\n\n4. Every Hatchway leading into passengers' quarters must be covered by a well secured House about six feet high, having as much ventilation as is compatible with strength, and being water tight. The Hatches are not to be used during the voyage unless stress of weather demands it.\n\nNote. When women are carried, they must have a separate hatchway entrance, apart from the Males; and the Male and Female quarters must be divided by a strong bulkhead with no door or aperture in it. The Female quarters must be aft, as also the Water closets for their use.\n\n5. The Berths, Cooking cabooses, Water closets, &c., must be all properly secured; and the Master must provide himself with two or three spare rice boilers, as they are very brittle, and liable to accident.\n\n6.

However, I fell in with the Gunboat \"Haughty\", and on communicating with Lieutenant Commanding Mainwaring, I ascertained that he had left Swatow on Monday Night in search of the Junk which pirated the \"Henry Darling\", intelligence of the Piracy having reached Swatow that day by steamer from Hong Kong; he wrote up immediately by the same steamer, to Amoy, to acquaint the Senior officer there of the piracy, in order that he might be able to act in that direction.\n\nLieutenant Mainwaring informed me that he had carefully examined the whole Coast from Swatow to Hei-che-chin Bay (including Cup-chi River) but had not obtained any information of the Pirate.

        "content_text": "## The London and China Express, 17th January, 1866.\n\n### ADDRESS AND TESTIMONIAL TO JOHN SMALE, ESQ., ATTORNEY-GENERAL OF HONG KONG.\n\nOn the return of Mr. Smale from Hong Kong to England the Parsees and Mahomedans of Hong Kong drew up and signed an address to him, of which the following is a copy :-\n\n\"The Honourable John Smale, Attorney-General of Hong Kong.\n\nSir, We, the undersigned, constituting and representing the Parsee and Coja community of this colony, moved by the respect and esteem which we have ever entertained for you during your residence amongst us, desire to place on record our appreciation of your private worth and of your public character. Believe us, Sir, knowing as we do that flattery ill suits our present purpose, and that undue adulation would be distasteful to you, we seek to clothe our sentiments in language expressive of our thoughts, and to avoid giving vent to our feelings in those stereotyped panegyrics which are but too often resorted to on occasions like that which now prompts us to address you. As for the zeal and ability which marked the performance of your public functions, it may not be within our province to speak. We cannot, however, refrain from bearing testimony to the approval of the public in your unceasing devotion to their welfare in this respect. But with regard to the perfect harmony which has prevailed in your department, the dignity and decorum which have ever marked your proceedings, the respect and deference which were so cheerfully accorded to you, we feel more competent to speak; and we find great pleasure in being able to compliment you on the tact, ability, and **suaviter in modo** which have enabled you to perform your functions effectively, satisfactorily, and scrupulously. Even this consideration, however, is not that which induces us now to address you. In your private capacity we have found so much to admire that we shall ever think upon it with gratitude and reverence. Your urbanity and untiring patience, your excellent and matured judgment, your disinterested and sound advice, your repugnance to litigation, and your reliable legal acumen, combine to make us feel your loss as irreparable, and to merit at our hands some tangible token of our esteem. We desire to have these sentiments perpetuated and certified by the special gift of a silver dinner set, the cost of which has been raised by voluntary subscription, and which token will be presented to you by Messrs. Mody and Co. in London. It were waste of words to add that we wish you health, happiness, and long life, but in conformity to the usages of society, we cannot conclude without that customary benison, feeling sure that it was never better merited nor more sincerely given. We are, Sir, your faithful and sincere friends,\n\n(Signed by 125 Parsee and Coja Merchants.)\"\n\nHong Kong, April 15, 1865.\n\nThis address was signed by all the Parsees and Mahomedans of India resident in Hong Kong, to the number of 125 merchants. A sum exceeding $1,500 was subscribed, and silver plate in dinner and tea services were manufactured in Canton, in elegant designs, by Chinese workmen. The plate was transmitted to England (where it cost about £70 for duty), and was, on Monday, the 8th inst., presented to Mr. Smale, with the address, by a deputation of four Parsee gentlemen. Mr. Smale replied as follows :-\n\n\"Messrs. Mody and Co. and Gentlemen, Words fail me adequately to express the surprise and satisfaction with which I first heard of the address which you, who constitute all the Parsee and Indian Mahomedan firms and residents in Hong Kong, by a deputation, now present to me. My duties as Attorney-General at Hong Kong have (owing to the very special state of the colony) been onerous and delicate, but I trust that the public service has not suffered by reason of any want of independence, or of grave error on my part. It is gratifying to find that my efforts are not unappreciated by you. You, however, properly confine yourselves to the expressions of your recognition of my conduct in my more private capacity of advocate and legal adviser. I feel that, in common with the majority of my countrymen, I have tried to act and be in the East as Christian gentlemen and English lawyers act and are in England; and it is in the highest degree gratifying to me to find that the descendants of the ancient Persians and of the Mahomedans of India—races formerly in mutual hostility, but now, under the security of British law, friendly rivals in peaceful commerce—concur in assuring me that, in their opinion, my efforts have not been unsuccessful. I have been legal adviser to most, opposed to some of you, and I feel that your testimony to my repugnance to litigation is the highest compliment you can pay to a practising lawyer. I must state that I do not remember a case in which I advised compromise or arbitration when anyone of you persevered in litigation. The unbounded liberality with which my professional services have ever been spontaneously acknowledged was such as to add extreme surprise to the gratification with which I receive your splendid gift of silver plate in dinner and tea services, costly specimens of Chinese workmanship, far exceeding the requirements of my moderate means and habits, but which I gratefully accept to become a memorial in my family of your munificence, and as stimulants to my children to an honourable career in life. Believe me that whatever my future lot may be, whether again to face the tropics in the East, or to retire from public life, I shall ever feel that my most useful and, consequently, happiest years have been spent in Hong Kong, and the recollection of your unbounded confidence and kindness will be among my brightest memories. Permit me, gentlemen, in conclusion to say that I shall with satisfaction note the fact that many of you have sought and found homes and friends in England. I augur the happiest results from our consequent increased familiarity of intercourse, and whilst I wish you all great commercial prosperity, I must add that I earnestly hope that you will find the highest and most enduring satisfaction as the result of a deeper insight into our habits and institutions.\"",
