        "content_text": "\nCORRESPONDENCE RELATIVE TO \n\n13. You will take immediate measures for the preparation of this force, and for the hiring of transports for their conveyance. Being thus early instructed as to the amount of tonnage required, you will be enabled, we conclude, to engage a portion of it on moderate terms at Bombay, and to bring such transports round to Madras, in time to convey the reinforcements from thence to Singapore, by the middle of April. It is our earnest desire that the whole force to be sent from India and this country for service in China, during 1842, should be col- lected at Singapore by the second week in April; and we rely upon every exer- tion being made on your part to effect this essential object. \n\n14. We are led to think that, after making ample provision for the packet- service, you will have disposable in 1842, for service in China, the following wooden steamers : \n\nQueen. Tenasserim. \n\nSemiramis. \n\nEnterprize. Sesostris. \n\nMadagascar. Auckland. \n\nProserpine. \n\nCruizer \n\nMILITARY OPERATIONS IN CHINA. \n\nHerald Calliope Nimrod \n\nCaptain Nias. \n\nCaptain Herbert. \n\nCommander Glasse. \n\nLarne \n\nHyacinth \n\nFavorite \n\nChilders \n\nCommander Halsted. \n\nColumbine \n\nPylades \n\nModeste \n\nPelican \n\nCommander C. G. Napier. \n\nClio, or Pearl Algerine Cameleon \n\nOrdered from Rio to China. \n\nLieutenant Mason. \n\nLieutenant Hunter. \n\nSulphur Starling \n\nAnd the iron steamers: \n\nNemesis. \n\nPhlegethon. \n\nWe trust that you will take measures for having the whole of this force either in the Canton river or at Singapore, by the period at which we have directed the military force to be assembled there. \n\n15. We shall, on our part, take measures for despatching from this country, in December, direct for Singapore, the steamer \"Memnon,\" of 1,100 tons and 400 horse power, and every exertion will be made to despatch, at an carlier period than February (in which month she is now expected to be ready), the steamer \" Acbar,\" of 1,100 tons, and 350 horse power. This steamer will like- wise be sent direct to Singapore. The iron steamer \"Pluto,\" of 100 horse power, is now ready at Portsmouth, and will be at your disposal for service in will have for the ensuing cam- China in 1842. We expect, therefore, that you paign eight (and, including the “ Acbar,\" nine) wooden steamers, and four iron \n\nsteamers. \n\n16. As the service upon which the force will be in all probability employed will bring the ships into rivers where attempts may be made to burn them, you will provide every steamer, ship-of-war and transport, with such booms as she can conveniently carry. Each boom should have at each end a stout chain and hooks, that the several booms may be firmly joined together. Each vessel should have six light kedge or stream anchors, for the purpose of holding the booms; and for each anchor should be supplied 10 or 12 fathoms of light, but suffi- ciently stout, chain. The booms will probably be most conveniently carried by each vessel under her chains. No vessel, however small, should have a less length of booms than 60 feet. Thus each vessel will be able in a river to protect herself, and the booms of several vessels joined together will form a per- fect protection for them all. You will take care that each vessel has several spare boats. If we should find, upon inquiry, that you have not, or could not easily or in good time, provide a sufficient number of such anchors as we have described, we shall send a number of them to Singapore; but you will depend, not upon us, but upon yourselves, for providing them. Spare booms and anchors, with longer chains attached to them, should be sent for the service of Her Majesty's ships, which will require them in deeper water. \n\n17. We have ascertained that the amount of Her Majesty's naval forces to be employed in the China Seas in 1842, will be at least equal to that employed this year, and that the vessels despatched from England to relieve those now in the China station, which should come home, will be at Canton or Singapore by the middle of April. In the event of a larger force of Her Majesty's ships being required in 1842 than is employed this year, the Admiral will be authorized to detain the ships which would otherwise come home; but we do not apprehend the occurrence of this emergency. We enclose a list we have received from the Admiralty of the ships on the China station this year, and of such as will sail from hence this year in time for the commencement of the campaign of 1842. \n\nCornwallis Blenheim \n\nEndymion \n\nCaptain O. Richards, Flag Ship. \n\nCaptain Sir H. Senhouse. \n\nCaptain Hon. F. Grey. \n\nCaptain H. Smith. \n\nBlonde \n\nCaptain Bouchier. \n\nConway \n\nCaptain Bethune, \n\nDruid \n\nHerald \n\nSURVEYING VESSELS OF WAR. \n\nIn addition to which, the \n\nSpartan Harlequin Dido \n\nSerpent Siren \n\n2 Captain Belcher. \n\n1 Lieutenant Kellett. \n\nTROOP SHIPS. Jupiter and Rattlesnake. \n\n25 Sail. \n\nHonourable C. G. Elliot. \n\nCommander Hon. G. Hastings. \n\nCommander Hon. H. Keppel. \n\nCommander Searle. \n\nCommander Smith. \n\nMaking together 30 sail; which will sail before the end of December to relieve ships there, which latter may be detained if required. \n\n- No. 12.- \n\nP \n\nCopy of a LETTER from Lord Stanley to the President of the Board of Control. \n\nNo. 12. \n\nMy Lord, \n\nDowning-street, 2 November 1841. THE attention of the Government having been directed to the mode in which Lord Stanley to the official business connected with the war in China has hitherto been conducted, the President of it becomes my duty to inform your Lordship of the result of the deliberations of the Board of Her Majesty's servants, and to convey to you the signification of Her Majesty's 2 November 1841. \n\nControl, pleasure as to the course, in reference to this subject, which should be pursued for the future. \n\nThe late administration, at the commencement of the war, employed upon it a portion of Her Majesty's troops upon the Indian Establishment, a portion of military forces of the East India Company, and the naval forces stationed in the Indian seas, reinforced by the squadron at the Cape of Good Hope, to which were added some ships from England. \n\nThe Admiral, sent from the Cape of Good Hope, directed the naval and military operations, and, as first in the commission, the diplomatic negotiations also. \n\nThe Governor-general of India, having sent the troops from India, had naturally an influence, and exercised some authority, over their first operations. Stores were also furnished at the discretion of the Governor-general, the British Treasury engaging to make good the extraordinary expenses incurred on that account, and charged in the first instance upon Indian revenues. \n\nBut it appears further, that stores and provisions, and a small force of British artillery, have also been furnished from England, for none of which does it appear that official authority from the Secretary of State has been conveyed to the Boards of Admiralty and Ordnance. \n\nany \n\nAt a subsequent period, the power of negotiation has been transferred to a Plenipotentiary, acting under the instructions of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. \n\n596. \n\nC 2 \n\nHer",

        "content_text": "in 1134 Hongkong \n\nTHE CHINESE TARIFF. \n\n(FROM FELIX FARLEY'S BRISTOL JOURNAL, OCTOBER 28, 1843.) \n\n0.0. NOV, \n\nTO THE EDITOR OF THE BRISTOL JOURNAL. Sir, The vast importance of the Chinese Tariff requires that it should be reduced to English weights, measures, and monies, for the use of British merchants, and not having yet observed that this has beca done, I beg to trouble yon with such s table, toge- ther with a few observations upon the standard to be observed. \n\nThe definition and determination of the Chinese tael is ex- preased in several different ways. 1st. It has been generally in England taken to be one third of the pound sterling, or Gs. 8d., or 80 pence, making the mace its 10th, S., and the caudareen its 100th part, 8-10ths of a penny. This simple relation to our own money would be a great advantage to English merchants if it were fully established, but some, as Beawes, make the candareen Ed., reducing the tael to 62. 3d. \n\n2ndly. It is now, however, for the most part compared with the Spanish dollar. Thus the latest and perhaps the highest sathority, that of Mr. Pope, in the Yearly Journal of Trade for 1843, states 72 taels to be equivalent to 100 dollars. The Spanish dollar is commonly estimated at 4s. Gd., but her Majesty's proclu- mation (Yearly Journal of Trada, 1840, p. 391), issued for the West Indies, makes it equivalent to 48. 2d. The tael, therefore, will be 6s. 3d, if we take the former, and 58. 94d. if the latter, for our guide. \n\n3rdly. It was originally compared with the Chinese silver coin called mace, and their copper coin called cash, but the mase has been long disused; 1000 cash were once equivalent to one fuel, but the depreciation of these coins by deterioration of the metal and reduction of their weight, so amply illustrated in the highly interesting and most authentic work of Mr. Davis, has now rendered the tael equal to a much greater number of cash. By Sir Henry Pottinger's Hong Kong proclamation of the 29th of March, 1842, 1200 of them are declared equal to one dollar. In weight I have found them vary from about 85 graina troy to twice as much. Du Halde says that the French sou is equivalent to the 100th part of the tael, that is to the caudareen, and also that it is equal to 6 cash, instead of 10. \n\n4thly. The Chinese tael is a weight, and has its value expressed by European weights, either avoirdupois or troy, and this is the truest mode of determining its equivalent in fine silver, seeing that the references to English money do not agree, that dollars differ materially in value, and that the Chinese cash are still more different from each other in their weight and quality. Measra. Gordon and Crawfurd, in their admirable treatise upon Chinese commerce, give a table stating the tacl is equal to 1 1-3 ounce avoirdupois, or 579.84 grains troy. These, unfortunately, do not agree neither, for 1 1-3 oz. avoirdupois contains 437.5 and 145.8 1-3 grs., or 583.3 1-3 grs, troy, and not 579.84. Again, Beawez in his \"Lex Mercatoria,\" states that the tael was 1 oz. 2 dr., of course troy weight, which in 480 and 120, or 600 grains. The editor of \"Mortimer's Commercial Dictionary,\" in his “Universal Commerce,\" p. 64, says 100 taels should weigh 120 oz. 10 dwts. troy, or 57840 grs., or the single tael 5734, which is less than any of the above. He says, also, that 100 Spanish dollars should weigh 68 13 dwts.; that is, 42,552 grs., of which we take the 72nd part, according to Mr. Pope, the tael comes out 591 grs. Now, 16 taels make a catty, and 100 catties a pecul; all autho- rities, I believe, concur in making the pecul 133 1-3 ib. avoirdu- pois, or the catty I 1-3 B., for which reason I prefer taking the tael as 1 1-3 oz., or 183 1-3 grs. The English crown piece, or N. is so nearly an avoirdupois ounce that if we could make this the standard the tael would come out as at first 5a, and 20d., or 6s. 8d., or 80d.; but in China all silver coin is taken as bullion, and the duties of course will be paid in fullion. The real value of the tael must, therefore, be sought in the market price of stan- dard silver. This, at the present time, I find to bo da. 1110. per ounce troy, which is almost exactly 48. 6d, the ouuoo avoirdupois, or 6s. the tacl; and I have accordingly made this my standard in the following table, wherein I have reduced the Tariff to English weights and monies. I prefer this to taking the market price of the dollar, whether Mexican or Spanish, new or pillar, and using the multiplier 1,204, because I consider that the term \"syees” means \"perfectly pure.\" This word I believe to be originally Chinese, although the characters used by the Chinese to express it do not indicate its proper etymology. I have no doubt that it was originally, in the orthoepy of Morrison, \"tsuh sih,\" or \"full quality;\" but the characters commonly used for it mean \"fine silk,\" expressive of what minoralogists would call it's \"lustre sating.\"* \n\nI cannot conclude without suggesting that, at the present low price of copper, 1000 tona, costing 70,000Z. or 80,0007., might advantageously be coined into Chinese cash, weighing each a 1-3 gra. This would greatly relieve the distress of the neighbourhood of Swansea, and supply Hong Kong and the Chinese with a good currency during the present and the next generation; for, if neatly executed, it would be universally coveted and hearded up in abundance, and would be a good payment for tea, instead of opium. On one side of the coin I would have the words \"Victoria Regina,\" and on the other, as usual, “perforated token,\" with \"Iong Kong\" instead of the Emperor's name. \n\nBristol, Oct. 14. \n\nI am, Sir, your obedient servant, \n\nSAM.

Provided also that if upon enquiry it shall appear to the said Registrar General or such other officer so to be appointed as aforesaid that the said un- registered person is a vagabond or bad character or without visible means of Subsistence the said Registrar General or such other officer as aforesaid shall have full power and authority to prohibit him from residing in the said Colony. \n\nAnd be further enacted and ordained that the said Registration Ticket shall contain the name of Applicant and the number of the Ticket and the date at which it is granted and such other particulars as to the aforesaid Registrar General may seem fit. Provided always that as regards persons of Chinese origin or extraction the name of the applicant shall be in the Chinese character, also. \n\nAnd be it further enacted and ordained that the said Registra tion Ticket shall continue in force for the period of one year from the date thereof and no longer and that on the expiration thereof any person who shall not forthwith apply to be again registered and obtain a fresh registration ticket shall be liable to the penalties inflicted by the provisions of this Ordinance on persons residing in the said Colony without being registered. \n\nAnd be it further enacted and ordained, That if any person being a Headman Contractor or other shall bire any or other persons Coolies or workmen not being previously resident in the Colony for the purpose of executing any work or service in the said Colony he shall be bound and is hereby required as soon as the said Coolies or workmen are landed in the said Colony to cause them to proceed to the said Office or such branch offices as may be appointed in the manner hereinbefore provided.

Intending Purchasers having assembled on the ground, the fol lowing terms of sale were read, and the lots were then severally put up to asle, and knocked down to the highest bidders as by the subjoined list. \n\nTERMS OF SALE. \n\n1. Upon a careful examination of the ground, it has been found impossible to put up the number of lots nam- ed in the government advertisement of the 7th instant; and only 50 lots, having sea frontage of 100 feet each, can at present be offered for sale. These lots will all be on the seaward-side of the road. Lots on the land side of it, and full and seburban lots in general, it will yet require some time to mark out. \n\n2. Each lot will have a sea-froutage of 100 feet, nearly. The depth from the sea to the road will necessarily vary considerably. The actual extent of each lot, as early as it has been possible to ascertain it, will be declared on the ground. And parties will also have the opportunity of observing the extent for themselves. \n\n3. The biddings are to be for annual rate of quit rent, and shall be made in pounds sterling, the dollar in all payments to be computed at the rate of 4s. 4d. The apset price will be £10 for each lot, the biddings to ad. vance by 10 shillinge. \n\n4. Each lot having been knocked down to the highest bidder, he will receive an acknowledgment that he is the purchaser of the lot; and this acknowledgment will be exchanged for a more formal title, as soon as the precise measurement and registration of the lots shall be com- pleted. \n\n5. Upon delivery of the titles, the purchasers will be called on to pay the reut for the first year, reckoning from the date of sale. \n\n6. They will also be required to erect upon each lot a building, of the appraised value of $1000, or to incur upon the land an outlay to that amount, within a period i of six months from the date of sale. As security for the performance of this engagement, a deposit of $500 shall be paid into the hands of the treasurer to the superintei- dents within one week from the day of sale,the deposit rapayable as soon as an equal amount shall have been expended.

This circumstance combines with other disadvantages the principal element of decay and disrepair, as it is found. Level lines are little affected by the heavy rains in this climate, while sharp declivities suffer all the ravages of the floods from the Hills. It was therefore proposed by Major Aldrich to connect the improved line of Road, and let the old line be converted into Catch-water drain above it, for its preservation.\n\nUnder these circumstances, and with the decided opinions of the Military Authorities forwarded with my previous Despatch, I would recommend your Lordship sanctioning the execution of the work proposed by Major Aldrich.\n\nI have the honor to be,\n\nWith the highest respect,\n\nYour Lordship's,\n\nMost Obedient\n\nHumble Servant,\n\nJ.

Now the request of the French Commissioner La Grené regarding the point, that those Chinese who practise this religion and do well, be exempted from criminality, seems as if it could be carried into effect. He must therefore request that as regards all who hereafter learn and practise the religion of the Lord of Heaven, no matter whether they be central or outside people, and who do not cause disturbances or do wickedly, he may respectfully crave the Celestial favour, permitting to and conferring on them an exemption from criminality; and should there be any seducing or defiling of men's wives and daughters, or using of craft to take out the pupils of sick men's eyes, or any other crimes, otherwise offending the laws, they shall, as before, be punished according to the established laws. With respect to those individuals of the French and all other Western nations, who practise the religion, let them accordingly be permitted to build halls for worship at the five ports of commercial intercourse, and they must not presume to enter into the Inner land to disseminate that religion. Should they act in opposition to, or turn their backs upon, the treaties, overstep the boundaries, and act irregularly, the local officers will, as soon as they seize them forthwith, send them to the Consuls of the several nations to restrain and punish them: but death must not be inflicted on the spot, in order to evince a cherishing and kind disposition. Thus peradventure the good and the vile will not be intermixed, and the laws of kindness will manifest their equitable course. This request regarding those who practise the religion and do well, being exempted from punishment, it is his duty to present it to the throne in a respectful Memorial, and he humbly craves His Imperial Majesty graciously to assent and grant that it may be carried into effect.\n\nA respectful Memorial,\n\nT.

        "content_text": "PIRACY.\n\nPiracies in this neighbourhood have become so common, that it almost becomes a labour to record them. The present outrage is particularly daring, though, as usual, in a week it will be forgotten, except by those who have lost property, or, what is of more consequence, have had friends butchered in a locality where, if our Rulers were better fitted for the high offices they hold, a piracy would never be heard of.\n\nThe schooner Privateer, Captain Martell, left this harbour for Cum-sing-moon anchorage on the 17th. On the afternoon of that day, a pleasure boat from Cum-sing-moon discovered her near Lintin, and from her appearance and position, they surmised that all was not right. She was in possession of Chinamen, who warned them off. On going near, they found the party having no arms, returned to Cam-sing-moon, where three boats were fitted out to recapture the Privateer. Two steered towards the south, and one north. The latter fell in with the schooner about nine o'clock, the pirates having abandoned her.\n\nOn boarding, they released three of the crew, and a passenger; one of them was wounded and has since died. Captain Martell and about 10 men were not found; and it is supposed they were butchered, and thrown overboard. Of the cargo, one boat load of 72 chests of Opium had been carried away, and there is no doubt, that had the vessel not been discovered, she would have been gutted that night.\n\nIntelligence of the disaster was received on the evening of the 18th, when the Agents promptly engaged the Corsair steamer to proceed in search of the pirates, and endeavour to deliver the missing men, who may be prisoners. The Corsair sailed at midnight, having on board a party of Seamen from H.M.S. Vestal.\n\nThe Corsair returned this evening fully confirming the above particulars. She had seen nothing of the pirates or the missing crew. Twelve lives have been lost, and property to the value of $47,000.\n\nAs we were going to press, we were informed of another piracy near Lintin on the evening of the 18th. A fast boat from Canton was boarded, and the passengers (two Portuguese Gentlemen) robbed of their luggage. It is singular, that one of them should be a brother of the young man who was forced into the water and drowned at this same place, and probably by the same parties, a couple of weeks ago.\n\n-Friend of China, June 20.\n\n599",

The duties are more tedious, and require increasing attention, and a due and perfect knowledge thereof can only be acquired by time and experience. The calls expose me to be at all hours, day and night, and are very uncertain; I never know the hour I may be required.\n\nI have been in the Government service for nearly three years, and have never yet been able to avail myself of a few days in recreation, solely because I have been unable to find a substitute whom I could depend upon, well knowing that the slightest error committed might involve both you and myself in disastrous consequence. I trust, therefore, that when the responsibility and importance of my office are considered, and that I have not received any salary as deputy Sheriff, that the sum incurred and expended will not be recalled.\n\nIn the British Colonies that I have visited, or in any way acquainted with, the Deputy Sheriff thereof receives a salary varying from £500 to £700 per annum. I may instance Penang, Singapore, Malacca, Port Philip, and Sydney. The Sheriff of the latter place has the whole of his expenses defrayed by Government, and the responsibility of office, so far as regards the escape of prisoners, removed by an Act of Council.\n\nI beg leave to request that you will have the goodness to bring my case before The Honorable the Colonial Secretary, in order that the same may be laid before His Excellency Sir S. J. Davis, in hope that he will be pleased to obtain a decree, which if carried out will be attended with great hardship.\n\nPage 159",

I once had a conversation with Jam-Alsoy, who told me he had asked for permission to build market, but that he did not obtain it. I replied - Why that is strange. If Afoon can get permission by paying $400 rent, perhaps you could get permission if you make a petition and if you pay say $500 more than he does by way of rent.\n\n(Signed) Loo Avan [in Chinese]\n\nSworn, taken and acknowledged before\n\n(Signed) Chas: Molloy Campbell.\n\n(Not 1&2.)\n\nTranslations\n\nWei-Afoo\n\n1847\n\n262\n\nof Documents produced by and others at the investigation on the 6th July.\n\nThe person making this agreement, Wei-teen-hwei, in 25th year of Taoukwang, on 5th month, and 27th day, according with the English date, the year 1845, of the 7th month, and 12th day, first experienced the Imperial Envoy Davis and the Chief Magistrate Caine's favor and compassion, deciding in answer to my petition that I should receive the Choong-wan market at Victoria, Hongkong, the shops of various sizes, the rows of stalls, and the nine shops outside the gate, facing the street, all complete, to be leased for a period of five and a half successive years, and the Government duty of $400 to be paid in advance on the first day of every month.\n\nBut seeing how hard it will be for one person to bear the very heavy expense of building, I am willing to deliver the English Officers' Certificate of the Market, that I have received, to Chun-tai-shing and Wei-teen-foo\n\n(True Copy)\n\nChief Colonial Secretary.",

Tarrant against the Chinese servants of the Government contained in his letter of the 3rd of July 1847 are groundless and without foundation. After a careful investigation of the voluminous depositions which were taken by myself, and taking proper observation of the demeanor of the witnesses during the examination, and carefully perusing the translations of the Chinese papers furnished by Mr. Marques, and forming part of the evidence I am of opinion that Mr William Tarrant had taken upon himself a task which it was not in his power to accomplish.

        "content_text": "Very respectfully the name Individual, whom before His Excellency the Governor, and the Honourable the Members of the Executive Council, was charged on Tuesday the 13th ultimo, with having dared to use the name of the Honourable the Colonial Secretary to extort money from Pam Achoey, the Contractor who applied for a license for Market, and who has got witnesses beside myself to prove, that Hoar (the Individual in question) did attempt this extortion on him.\n\nIn exculpation of the charge against me, I beg to say that I totally deny having uttered a single word of that which Aran in his evidence makes me to have said, and it is perfectly apparent to me that he has made this accusation for the sole purpose of screening himself. That far from wishing to injure the character of the Honourable Major Caine, in the course which I have taken, my object in bringing the matter to the notice of the Government has been with a view to enable that Gentleman to have the circumstances properly investigated, and I respectfully urge that the course I took was a proper one, and calculated to effect that object, and put an immediate stop to the reports getting so current, and which it would have been criminal in me to have passed over longer unnoticed, and that there could be no conceivable motive for my wishing to injure the Honourable Major Caine, either in his private or public character.\n\nThe evidence of Wei Afoon at the Magistrates Court was not at all at variance with the facts. I fully admit that I insisted upon stating to Wolengely (the head of my Department and the proper channel for the commencement of an investigation) what he had repeatedly told me and others, but I am entirely at a loss to discover the criminality which exists in my taking this method for the performance of what I conceived to be my bounden duties to the Honourable Major Caine, and to the Public service generally.\n\nIn conclusion, I have to express my deep regret that before the charges made against me have been investigated by a Jury of my Countrymen (by whom I am convinced my innocence will be fully shown) His Excellency the Governor in Council should have deemed it necessary to suspend me from Office. And I earnestly hope that His Excellency the Governor in Council will see fit to moderate this extreme degree of censure, and to reinstate me in my Office until the charges are fully investigated.\n\nPage 338",

        "content_text": "For myself, I was the first clergyman of the Church of England to hold a regular service on Sundays among the Military. These 600 men, the sad relics of war, disease, and climate, were assembled in a Buddhist Temple, converted for a season to the purposes of Christian worship. Numbers had sunk into a premature grave without the solaces of religion in their dying hour.\n\nThe French Ambassador, during his visit to that Island, drew an invidious contrast in my hearing between the total absence for 5 years of the means of regular religious instruction for the British in Chusan, and the conduct of his own Government, who, in addition to other priests on board the frigate, allowed a private Chaplain for himself among his own.\n\nThe specific measure which I beg leave to recommend to your Lordship is the appointment of at least three additional Chaplains. One is required at the military post of Chefoo in the Island of Hongking, at present without any religious instruction, except the occasional visit of the military Chaplain from Victoria at a distance of 8 miles, with bad road and hilly country, which in that climate separates the two localities at the ordinary distance of 20 miles in England. Two Consulate Chaplains might be stationed with advantage at the two free ports of Canton and Shanghai, at each of which cities the British community is considerable, and where there are many sailors of the small sloops of war and the numerous Merchant vessels which frequent these ports.\n\nPage 272\n\n44. The last topic to which I beg your Lordship's permission to advert, partakes of a more general character, but is in a degree identified with the duties and the interests of the British Government. I alluded to the affording of reasonable facilities by the Consular authorities in the five free ports to British Missionaries in the prosecution of their work.\n\nDuring my exploratory visit and residence at each of the five ports of China, I have enjoyed ample opportunities of intercourse with the Chinese, and of fully testing the groundlessness of any fears as to Chinese viewing with alarm or jealousy the efforts of Missionaries.\n\nAs a proof of the growing liberality of the Chinese Government, I may recall your Lordship's attention to the Imperial Edict of universal religious toleration propounded some years ago by the Imperial Commissioner and confirmed by five supplementary Imperial Edicts.\n\nBut I can adduce more positive proof of the more tolerant spirit of the Chinese Government as seen in the liberal disposition of the local Mandarins. In the city of Amoy, I had constant access, with the other Protestant Missionaries, to the highest authorities, without any other official introduction than that of belonging to the Missionary body. The five high Mandarins of the city and district (two of whom belonged to the dominant race, the Manchus) gave jointly an invitation to a special entertainment to the Missionary body, seven in number including myself.\n\nPage 273\n\nI have overlooked this paper for some time & it is now late to return it, it must however be acknowledged apologizing for the delay upon my part that before I directed it to be returned, I was waiting for farther information on the subject.\n\nHis Statement may be liable to be detained about the sheets after certain hour without a light, as his European employees say a written note that the existence of such a regulation had not previously...",

His Lordship however finds that your statement is confirmed by others to whom information has been received on the subject & he therefore proposes immediately calling on the Governor for an explanation, upon the subject.\n\n Lord Grey has attentively considered suggestions for the establishment of an institution for the education of Chinese, and for making adequate provision for the spiritual wants of British Subjects in China, Military and mercantile, and directs me to inform you that looking to the already heavy expense of the public establishments at Hong Kong his Lordship is not prepared to consent to any increase of that expense.\n\nPage 286",

Aoo was not there. They took about fifty chests of Opium which they brought to Fan to-moon and there divided. Another boat was hired there which brought forty chests to Hongkong, where the three prisoners were then present puts into Aoo's boat—the three prisoners received more than two chests of Opium, besides other things, as said. Too Apo and Aloo received more than two chests.\n\n\"For Apeo found guilty of being an accessory before the fact, the substance of the evidence was as follows—that Too Apo, formerly a fisherman, now an informer, he knew the three Prisoners (the said Lam Apat, Leang Ashin, and your Petitioner). Asoo (meaning your Petitioner) said to him he had an armed boat belonging to himself—Witness went with him and the two others to Chimme Bay to attack a schooner for money.\n\nThat the said informer Too Apo has since been found guilty of extorting money from persons under threats of intimidation, to the effect that unless he paid a certain sum of money, he would charge the parties with having committed acts of piracy, and who being so convicted on such charge, has been sentenced to hard labour for three years in Her Majesty's Jail of Victoria, in the Colony of Hongkong.",

        "content_text": "HONG KONG.\n\n6\n\nREPORTS EXHIBITING THE PAST AND PRESENT\n\nsummary and speedy disposal of minor offences before a bench of magistrates, and already submitted to your Lordship, will, I have no doubt (if confirmed), materially tend to remedy this very serious evil.\n\nI have, &c., (Signed)\n\nThe Right Hon. Earl Grey,\n\nEncl. 1 in No.\n\nSIR,\n\n&c.\n\n&c. &c.\n\nEnclosure 1 in No.\n\nS. E. BONHAM.\n\nSurveyor-General's Office, Victoria, February 9, 1849.\n\nI HAVE the honour to submit my annual report upon the works that have been executed during the year, also upon the general state and repair of all civil roads and works in the island,\n\n1. Roads and Bridges, district of Victoria.-The Queen's road and all the streets in the town have been kept in a tolerable state of repair during the year, by the employment of convict labour thereon, the only actual expenditure having been for the cutting and removal of some rocks in Wyndham-street, Req. No 2, of 1848, which was executed for 101. 16s. 8d.; and in the Wongneichung Valley repairs, to the extent of 217. 13s. 4d., were paid for under Req. No. 9, of 1848.\n\nThe estimated value of convict labour expended in repairs has amounted to 3297. 17s. 8d. The new bridge at the Nullah North Barracks was opened during the year, which has rendered that portion of the road safe and serviceable; the expenditure thereon during the year amounted to 4437. 15s., leaving a balance unpaid upon the estimate of 67. 11s. 11d. One of the small wooden bridges (Stewart's) in the Wongneichung Valley being in a precarious state, I was directed to build a stone arch in lieu thereof, which was done for the sum of 457. 16s. 8d. Req. No. 42, of 1847. I have examined as closely as possible the three other wooden bridges in the valley; the main timbers are apparently sound; some of the lower sheathing-boards of the large bridge are partly decayed, but as the upper course is perfectly sound I do not think it unsafe, or that repairs are demanded at the present moment. An expenditure of 2854. 16s. 10d. has been made for the construction of stone-surface drains (Rep. and Est. 13, of 1845), mostly in the Chinese Town, which is very much improved thereby; and the drainage and streets in that district may be said to be quite finished, with the exception of a small portion of Hollywood-road, from thence to the Queen's-road, which it is difficult to keep in order; it, therefore, would be advisable to complete the proposed service for that reason: besides, the road would be rendered safer for carriages than it is at present, for a portion of the road is an embankment which has no parapet thereto; and the stone drain, with a raised footpath, obliges both horsemen and carriages to keep the centre of the road. The same may be said of some of the other roads and streets in the town, some of which are much frequented, and very dangerous from the want of some protection. Upon this service there is a balance unappropriated of 5301. 2s. 9d. Of the under-ground drainage little required to be done; the balance, 797. 14s. 1d., unexpended (Rep. and Est. 11, of 1844) was applied to the formation of two drains; one across the Queen's-road, centre of Parade-ground; the other at junction of Albert-road with the Albany-road. A brick sewer to join the Ordnance sewer, east of the Nullah Bridge, was authorized under Rep. and Est. No. 8, of 1847, amounting to 897. 13s., but it is not yet completed, in consequence of the extreme difficulty of excavating the rock, which must be burned before it can be quarried out, which is a tedious and expensive operation. Under the authority of Rep. and Est. No. 10, of 1844, I expended the sum of 371. 6s. 2d. for work in the West District, to complete the services undertaken originally, and have closed the account, leaving the sum of 21. 10s. 6d., which is not required. The Queen's-road, from the Ice House to the Nullah Bridge, had a double row of trees planted along the footpaths, which have thriven very well indeed, considering the nature of the ground, the service having been completed for less than the estimate. (Reg. No. 28, which was only authorized to the amount of 150l.) I was directed to expend the balance in planting such parts of the town which might be improved thereby. I therefore planted a portion of Albert-road, Arbuthnot-road, a portion of the Queen's-road near the Gap, and opposite the Post Office, &c. The sum expended during the year amounted to 1027. 17s., the remainder being due to the contractor, and for the purchase of straw bands, with which I have been obliged to protect each tree to preserve them from the goats. There are several other roads and streets in the town, and some unoccupied or impracticable building lots, which if planted would be a vast improvement to the town, not only as to its appearance, but, I understand, equally so in a sanitary point of view. The harbour-master's pier (Rep. and Est. No. 6, of 1847) it was found necessary to extend (in consequence of the great deposit of silt) to a distance of 57 feet, as that distance is entirely dry at low-water spring tides during the south-west monsoon; and as I anticipate that the mode of construction I have adopted for the extension (by forming an opening or archway for the passage of the water) will prevent, in a great measure, the accumulation of silt, no further extension will be necessary. The tides during the north-east monsoon being very high, I have been unable to get in the foundations at the extreme end, which I proposed to do without any coffer-dam; the arch, however, has been keyed in; and when the paving is finished the work will be suspended until April: 2007. was expended thereon up to the end of the year, leaving a balance on the estimate to complete it of 1647. 0s. 10d. The total expenditure during the year in the three districts of Victoria, exclusive of buildings,\n\nSTATE OF HER MAJESTY'S COLONIAL POSSESSIONS.\n\nhas amounted to 1277. 15s. 9d.; being on account of roads, 1727. 13s. 2d.; stone drains, 415. 10s. 11d.; bridges, 4897. 11s. 8d.; marine works, 2007.\n\nThe convict labour being exclusively confined to the town of Victoria, I proceed to detail the services performed by them during the year. The work executed by the convicts for the year last past may be classified under four heads; viz., repairs to roads, additional work to roads (formerly made by the convicts), clearing and levelling ground round site of Government offices, and miscellaneous work.\n\n1. Repairs to Roads and Streets, including the Queen's-road, have been effected upon a length of 5516 yards, which, calculated upon the rate I usually adopt for convict labour, viz., 5d. a-day, gives an average of 6d. per yard, and amounts to 1517. 12s. 8d. This service comprised the repair and construction of rough-stone drains, removal of slips of earth, repairs to embankments, &c. Some portions of the steep streets are exceedingly difficult to keep in repair, and in several cases the work has ranged from 9d. to 1s. 9d. per yard; the streets and roads which are nearly horizontal are kept in order for 2d. or 3d. a-yard.\n\n2. Additional Work to Roads, &c. This comprises widening the road from the Ice-house to Pedder's-hill and Albert-road, from the latter place to the Government offices, and from the Ice-house to the church, &c.; in executing which, 2986 cubic yards of material have been cut and removed, the value of the labour being 847. 7s. 11d., or 7d. a-yard. This is a very fair average price for this kind of material, for it is seldom, if ever, contractors can be induced to undertake that work under 10d. In addition to the above amount, labour equivalent to 117. 13s. 9d. has been expending in consolidating the heavy embankment near the Murray Battery, which settled frequently and considerably during the rainy season.\n\n3. Levelling Ground round Government Offices. This service has consisted in clearing and levelling the area adjoining the above building and the Murray Battery, to prepare the same for grassing, planting, &c., and comprises all that work not estimated or contracted for under Rep. and Est. No. 5, of 1846. Portions of this ground were exceedingly rough and full of heavy stones, and in consequence all the work could not be measured; portions of it, however, were so, some of which cost 1s. 4d. per yard, but the generality of it has been done under 9d.; the total amount of labour expended thereon up to 31st December, is equal to 91. 14s. 1d. A considerable quantity of work is still required in this locality, the heaviest of which consists in sloping the ground to the rear of the Government offices and church to the road, instead of leaving it, as at present, horizontal. This work will be a great improvement to both buildings. It is exceedingly rocky in some parts, but soft in others; in all probability will cost 6d. per yard throughout; there is 23,259 cubic yards in that area, to be carried an average distance of 400 feet; so that I expect the work will occupy the labour of the whole gang of men, or 60 men, for 12 months at least, assisted by stone-cutters besides. It may therefore be estimated that the above work and the contemplated road to Government House will occupy their time for two years.\n\n4. Miscellaneous Work is equivalent to the sum of 397. 5s. The number of convicts employed was 18,151; and the total value of labour performed amounts to 3787. 14s. 3d. During the year a large supply of new tools was demanded, which, together with repairs, has cost the sum of 97l. 13s. 4d.; the value of the tools in use may be estimated at half of this amount, or 48l. 16s. 8d.; therefore, if that sum be deducted from the above amount, the net value of all work performed will amount to 329l. 17s. 8d., being 267. 1s. 5d. more than last year.\n\nUpon the roads in the Wongneichung Valley, 27 miles, the sum of 211. 13s. 4d. has been expended in repairs, being less than 3d. per yard.\n\nRoad Wongneichung to Saiwan, 5 miles. During the early portion of the year (until May), the road surface was maintained in tolerable order for the sum of 137. 15s. 0d., Req. 39, of 1847, and 3 of 1848; the wooden bridges' repairs, Req. 31 and 38, of 1847, cost 331. 19s. 3d., so that the total expenditure amounted to 471. 14s. 3d., or 1d. for the half-year. During the heavy gales and typhoons in the latter portion of the year, both roads and bridges sustained much damage, and as no expenditure has been sanctioned to rectify it, each succeeding storm and heavy rain adds considerable injury thereto, and this, together with the continued deposit of débris from the quarries, the ravages of the white ant, and encroachments of the sea, will in a short time obliterate all traces of the road; at least all those parts made along the coast. The road, although passable for horses, is unsafe in several places.\n\nRoad from Saiwan to Stanley, 43 miles.-The final payment on account of the construction of a portion of this road was paid in the beginning of the year, amounting to 737. 1s. 3d., Rep. and Est. 2 of 1846. The repairs to road surface amounted to 627. 10s. 2d. on Requisitions 34 of 1847, 3 of 1848, and 7 of 1848. Bridges required no repair; the rate per yard for 6 months being 1d.; the road is now in tolerable order.\n\nOld Road to Tytam, 3¼ miles.-This road, from its exceeding steepness, is always more expensive than the other roads, although it is only 5 feet wide on an average, the repairs to the surface amounted to 297. 5s. 4d., to the bridges 181. 10s. 10d., on Req. No. 45, of 1847, and 8 of 1848, the total expenditure being 477. 16s. 2d., or 1d. per yard, being an equal rate with the last-mentioned road, which is twice as wide. The road is still in good repair, except in a few places.\n\nRoad from Victoria West to Aberdeen, 4½ miles. The repairs to this road amounted to 76. 18s. 4d., Req. No. 43, of 1847, and 6, of 1848, for the surface; repairs to wooden bridges, Req. No. 30, of 1847, 36l. 2s. 6d.; and coal tar, Req. 45, of 1847, 67. 5s. 0d.; and the formation of a stone arch in lieu of a decayed wooden platform 34l. 15s. 10d., Req. 40, of 1847, so that the total expenditure has amounted to 154l. 1s. 8d., from which it appears that the rate per yard amounted to 4d., including the stone arch; this rate, strictly speaking, is chargeable on a portion of the previous year and on a greater length of road, repairs to the\n\nHONG KONG.\n\n293",

        "content_text": "J\n\nit. I identified it as the remains of the late Captain Da Costa. I myself took a walk on Sunday evening. I went in a westerly direction from Stanley towards Wong-ma-kok.** My way lay along the beach. I must have been within 800 or 900 yards from the spot where the spear-heads were found above referred to. I did not then see anything to attract my attention, except that I observed two large boats with boarding-nettings up. They appeared to keep aloof from the other small boats about. The Stanley people had noticed these two boats, and were at a loss to account for their appearance there.\n\n(6)\n\nTHOMAS MACDONNELL, Lieutenant Ceylon Rifle Regiment.\n\nERM-AYAK, Wong-I, was table-boy to the late Captain Da Costa. Unimportant—knows nothing.]\n\n(7)\n\nJUNG ACFORT, groom—I was horsekeeper to the late Captain Da Costa. I accompanied Dr Tweddell on Sunday night to look for my master. I visited the village of Wong-ma-kok. On returning from said village, when about as far as the Stanley barracks are from the village of Stanley, I picked up a three-pronged spear. I cannot say that it had marks of blood on it. I did not notice that the turf was stained with blood near where this spearhead was found. The night was dark. I do not think that cries of distress could have been heard from the spot by the villagers. I have lived with the late Captain Da Costa for three months. I have never been in the village of Wong-ma-kok before Sunday last.\n\n(8)\n\n3d March, 1849.\n\nCHARLES MAY Sworn, a Superintendent of Police. Having received intelligence on Monday morning the 25th of February, that Captain Da Costa and Lieutenant Dwyer were missing from the quarters at Stanley, I proceeded thither with a party of Police and Soldiers accompanied by Mr Caldwell. A soldier of the Ceylon Rifles mentioned that he had seen some drops of blood on a footpath. I accompanied him and perceived the blood distinctly on a path which I subsequently found led from the village of Wong-ma-kok to a fishing hut on the west side of the peninsula. I requested Assistant Superintendent Caldwell to trace the path downward, and I proceeded upward, and early observed the track of blood in single drops at average intervals of a yard apart for above 400 yards—in three or four places three or four drops were close together. The track of blood ended where the path entered between two low stone walls, leading to, and about 100 yards from the village. I searched carefully right and left, and in the path, but saw no blood. I then proceeded through the village, and at the east corner perceived several drops of blood on a stone. A path continued by this stone to the place where two spear heads were stated to me to have been found; this was about 200 yards on the east side of the village. For about 100 yards along this path near to the village there is a thick jungle, and a fire was then burning from the jungle to about thirty yards of the spot where the spear heads were found, and extended backward for more than one mile. I searched on each side the path and round about where the spear heads were found, but discovered no traces of blood, or of a struggle. Before I had entered the village I saw a man on the hill above, to whom I beckoned, and he came to me. I took him into custody, and ascertained his name to be Lo-asee-zoong. I examined his person and found a wound on the right side of the head—such a wound as would be caused by a heavy blow from a stick; had been recently inflicted, as upon pressing it, blood oozed out. On the string or band fastening up his trousers [string produced] I saw several marks of blood; also several spots of blood on his ankles, near the heels. He represented, by words and action, that this wound was occasioned by his falling on a stone. I and Mr Caldwell searched the village, and in three houses we saw wearing apparel hanging up, as if recently washed; they were scarcely dry. A piece of cloth used as a towel was hanging up in the house at the east corner; I saw spots of blood upon it, and evident signs of blood having been nearly washed out.\n\nThe next morning I landed at the fishing-hut accompanied by the Chief Magistrate Mr Hillier. We saw the lowest drop of blood on the footpath before mentioned, and examined another path diverging to the left. On this path I saw three drops of blood at some distance apart: the path led to a cave formed by large rocks resting on each other, in which several bundles of bedding and clothing, and a box containing clothing and some silver ornaments were found by me. A bundle containing clothing was found by Mr Hillier on the top of the rocks; and upon Police Constable Crevy examining it, a jacket on which were visible several marks of blood was found. I then proceeded up the path leading to the village before mentioned, and on which, about 90 yards in length, the track of blood was clearly seen. A very minute examination was made, and in front of the houses in the village three spots of blood were seen by me; and in the path leading from the village to the place where the spears were found I saw several drops of blood. I received information that blood had been seen on some rocks near the water, and upon proceeding there, found the spot to be about 300 yards from the fishing-hut; the path diverging from the path leading to the village, led by the place. There were large marks of blood in four or five places, as if a body had lain there some time, and on one prominent point of rock, there were marks of a body being dragged over.\n\nThe party were about leaving the place, having previously had a search made by means of boat-hooks in the sea near, when a broken spear found at the village fell from the Police-boat into the water: the boatmen were endeavoring to recover this, when the body of Mr Da Costa came to the surface and was brought ashore. When I arrived at Stanley on the morning of Monday the 26th February, three persons had been apprehended, and upon being questioned through the interpretation of Mr Caldwell, the first examined, Lo-akow, stated, that he lived in the village of Wong-ma-kok with his father; that he was at home the previous day. He did not see any Europeans, or any strangers in the village. I showed him some spears and spear-heads which had been found, and some broken sticks or handles. He identified a spear with a single blade as belonging to Tay-apo, but that it was kept in his father's house, a three-pronged spear as belonging to Chea-asam, who resided in the village, and a knife or clipper as belonging to Chea-thing.\n\nThe second prisoner, Lo-yet-show, stated, he lived in the village, but was from home fishing until dark; he did not see any Europeans or strangers that day near the village. He said the two spears exhibited to him were the property of Chea-asam, the knife or copper the property of Chea-apo, and the spear-ends to belong to Chow-asam.\n\nOne we found a towel on which were marks of blood, but it had been washed; there were several pieces of wet clothing found in one or two houses. On arriving at the village I found Lo-asee in custody of Mr May. I observed a wound on the right side of his head, which, on being questioned by me at the request of Mr May, he stated he received in falling upon a stone on the hill. The following day, having been informed that blood had been seen on some rocks near the water, I went with the Chief Magistrate and Mr May, and saw four or five spots† of blood on some rocks a short distance from the water. We made strict search, both on shore and in the water by means of boat-hooks, but discovered nothing. As we were about embarking, a portion of a bamboo pike on being passed into the boat fell into the water, and the man in the bows with a boat-hook trying to recover it, hooked up something white. I desired him to lift it up higher, and on his doing so I found it was the body of Captain Da Costa; I immediately called out. The swell being rather high, I went a short way into the water to secure the body; a rope was passed at it, and it was taken out of the water. I was requested by Mr May to question two boys and an old man whom we found in custody at the barracks on the morning of the 26th; the two former gave different statements as to whom certain spears and spear-heads, which were shown them, belonged. They all three denied having seen any Europeans in their village on the 25th.\n\nWhen the body of the late Captain Da Costa was taken out of the water, I felt for his watch, but it was not on his person, nor had he any rings on his fingers. On Monday, when I arrived at Wong-ma-kok, I observed that a fire was raging immediately behind the village. A spot was pointed out to me where some spear-heads were found a short distance from the village; the grass around was on fire. When I arrived at Wong-ma-kok, Mr May had an old man in custody, named Lo-Assee; he had a cut on his head, which he said he received in falling against a stone. I saw marks of blood on his waist-band, and also on his neck. The five men seized in the fishing-hut or boat might have seen the body of Captain Da Costa thrown into the water from their boat, but I think not. If it had been done in the day time, but I think not. If it had been done in the night time.\n\nI acted as Interpreter to Mr May when he questioned several prisoners that had been seized on Sunday at the village. I have heard the statement made by Mr May, and fully corroborate it, as to the questions put, and answers given by the Chinese.\n\nD. R. CALDWELL.\n\n(11)\n\nMR CALDWELL further states, that the following prisoners had been seized before his arrival at Stanley, and were landed eventually to the Police,—Lo-akow, Lo-yet-show, Chui-assey, Lo-assee alias Lo-yang-ghing. The following five men were seized in a fishing-hut near Wong-ma-kok,—Cauchi fook, Chuw-fook-tong, Cheng-keen-ee, Chan-we-tong, Chun-no-fat, Lo-lee-shi; the wife of Chai-apo, was brought into Victoria on Thursday night last by Police Constable Mars; Woog-sannie was brought into Victoria yesterday (Friday) by an Indian Constable.\n\n(12)\n\nLO-YANG-SHING alias Lo-asse, is arraigned as a prisoner.\n\n(Mr Caldwell on the request of the Jurymen is sworn in as Interpreter.\n\nThe nature of the preceding depositions are explained to him. He is duly cautioned, being informed that whatever he may say, it may be taken down in writing, and used as evidence against him at any future time.] He now states,—I am a native of Namchong, in Kwang-sheen. I am a husbandman, and have resided for many years in the village of Wong-ma-kok, on the island of Hongkong. On the 3d day of this month (corresponding with our Sunday the 25th February,) two English Officers came to the village of Wong-ma-kok about dark. They went into my house; myself was there, my wife was cooking, and my daughter-in-law was keeping the door up. One of the officers, the shorter one of the two, embraced my daughter-in-law, made motions with my hand for him to desist. The girl cried out; my wife went up and pulled the officer away. I also begged them to go away, when the tall officer struck me with a walking-stick on the head—a common stick. [produces a cicatrix on the right side of the head, which seems to be the result of the blow inflicted.] The villagers hearing the cries of my daughter-in-law, came in, and tried to get the officers away. As the villagers came into my house, they were struck by the officers. My head at this time was bleeding; blood came into my eyes; I could not see. A villager standing next door to me, named Chui-apo, with six of his men, came in; they armed themselves with spears; a conflict ensued between these men and the English officers. When it was dark. I could not see the issue of the encounter. The disturbance arose principally because Chui-apo and his men would not submit to the treatment displayed towards my daughter-in-law.\n\nI did not interfere. I think that was wrong. The names of Chui-apo's men are as follows,—Chow-ping, a native of Kwai-shien. Chui-abing, native of Nautow, Cheng-asam, from Kweishen, Chui-assey alias Chung-kek-sing of [illegible]. The names of the others I do not know. Chui-apo has lived in the village for 1 year; he was a sailor, and returned to his native place, San-chuen in Kwei-skeen. Hoy-yeen-ping has been in the village but one month; he has a license from the Government to make gunpowder there. Some of the others have been residents of the village for two or three years. They did not till the ground. They eat grass, and sometimes go out fishing. They are not regularly employed by Chui-apo. Seven or eight hundred took part in the scuffle with the English officers. It first began in my house; 5 or 6 men first entered. Their names I have given before. I do not know the others by name. The English officers did not fall in my house, but they were wounded there. I did not see any blood on the ground in my house. The officers rushed out of the house, but were pursued by the assailants. The name of my daughter-in-law is Lo-chow-sing; she is aged 18 years. She was taken from the village on Sunday night—at all events I have not seen her since. The officers used to visit the village usually. I never knew them to converse with my daughter-in-law during any of these visits. The two men on Sunday, before coming into my house, had entered Chui-apo's, where they had interfered with women, but they were driven out. In the house, during the struggle, the tall English officer wrested a spear from Chui-apo, knocked him down, and kicked him. In aiming a blow at Chui-apo, the spear broke. I do not know whether Chui-apo was wounded.\n\nI can identify the spear that was seen, who had been away from the village fishing for the day. [Several spears are then shown to the prisoner, and he identifies the broken one.] He identified a broken stick which he said belonged to Chow-chong, who broke it in beating a cow shortly after it had calved; he accounted for several spots of blood upon the handle from the latter circumstance.\n\nThe third prisoner, Chuy-see, said he foretold good and bad weather; he had been at the village of Wong-ma-kok lying with the Lo family about one month; he was in the house all day, and saw no Europeans or strangers. The village of Wong-ma-kok is situated on a level space of about five acres, near the top of the peninsula between Stanley and Ty-tam bay. There are four families living there, the heads of which are named respectively, Chou-sheeng, Tau-agar, Tai-apo, and Lo-see. These latter particulars I ascertain from the Assessment Return for Police Rate. I have compared the head of a spear found on the east side of the village by Police Constable Marshall, with the handle of a spear found by Lieutenant Maxwell 95th Regiment, and find the broken parts to correspond; on the handle there are marks of blood.\n\nWhen the body of the late Captain Da Costa was taken out of the water, there was not any watch on his person, nor had he any rings on his fingers.\n\nCHARLES MAY.\n\nWILLIAM ROWLAND MAXWELL being sworn, states.—I am a Lieutenant in H. M. 95th Regiment. On Tuesday last, the 27th February, I visited Wong-ma-kok. In the village I found the shaft of a spear, apparently had recently broken. I found it thrust into a bundle of hay. The shaft now produced is the one I found; it bore marks of blood.\n\nWILLIAM ROWLAND MAXWELL, 95th Regiment.\n\n(10)\n\nwas found by the party of Dr Tweddell, a 3-pronged spear.] it was after the spear was broke that the officers shed out. When I was wounded, my wife shouted out, \"Help, help. save my life.\" The villagers then rushed in, but they did not come armed; they pulled the officers out, and in attempting to do so, they were struck with sticks. The villagers then got spears. The officers did not make any resistance before the conflict ensued and before the spear was broken to escape. In the house of Chui-apo there were two women, one aged 16, a married girl, daughter-in-law of Chui-apo; the other was an old woman his wife. I overheard the result of the conflict, nor do I know what has become of the officers. The Stanley officers set fire to the grass. Late on Sunday a party of officers and men came to the village and enquired what had become of the two officers. I replied that they had been interfering, and a disturbance had taken place, but that I did not know where they had gone to.\" I suspected that the two English officers had been killed, from the way they were fighting, but I was afraid to say so to those that came in search. My eldest son was outside my house during the conflict; he afterwards returned, but did not say anything. I have not had communication, nor yet seen any of the villagers who took part in the conflict.\n\n(13)\n\nLo-yang-sing, after having been duly cautioned in a similar manner to the last deponent, states,—I am a son of the last deponent, and reside at the village of Wong-ma-kok. On Sunday last, I remember two English officers coming to the village; at the time I was not in my father's house, having out-door occupation. I saw them going into several houses looking after women, and into my father's house amongst the rest. On my entering my father's house, I saw one of the officers embracing my sister-in-law; my father interfered, and desired him to desist. He would not; my father tried to pull him away, but could not. The villagers then came in; they were not called, they came of their own accord. They were then armed with spears and knives. They fought with the officers in the house. A spear was wrested from Chui-apo by the tall officer. I did not see any wound inflicted by this officer. I saw him aim a blow at one of the villagers.\n\nDANIEL RICHARD CALDWELL Sworn, states,—I am Assistant Superintendent of Police. On the morning of the 26th ultimo (Monday), in consequence of information received at the Station that two officers were missing from Stanley, I accompanied Mr May to that place for the purpose of making search. One of the men of the Rifles having stated that he had observed spots of blood on a footpath, he took us to it. I was requested by Mr May to trace westward, that is down the hill towards Stanley bay. I observed single spots of blood along the footpath, about the distance of three and four feet apart. In some places several spots were together. I traced the blood to within about 50 yards from a fishing-hut, and about 100 yards from the water. I went to the hut, which I examined. I found Chinese there, whom I took into custody and sent to the barracks in charge of some of the Rifles. I afterwards examined a sampan in the water close to the fishing-hut. I examined it, but found nothing suspicious about her. I then retraced the footpath, and observed the single spots of blood all the way to within a short distance of the village of Wong-ma-kok. I searched the houses with Mr May. In one house I had been frequently at the village.\n\nQuery—Swears—Ed.C.M.\n\n11\n\naway, saying it was improper for them as other relatives with the villagers.

From this place we proceeded to Hoi chow, about 20 miles to the westward of the former place, where we arrived at 3 PM. I went ashore, accompanied by Messrs. Jamieson, Sames, Olding, and Bowring, to visit the Mandarin, who treated us with great kindness. After obtaining all the information we could, we returned to the ships, but on account of the lowness of the tide, we did not reach the steamer until 3 A.M. on the morning of the 12th.\n\nWe were detained here until 9 A.M., when the Mandarin returned our visit. He was conducted round the ship and engine-room, at which he expressed his astonishment. He questioned some of the Prisoners, who appeared much frightened. On the flags which had been shown to him, he said they belonged to Shap ng tai. He went on shore, being civil and attentive to us, and sent us a present of fowls, tea, &c. Sam quang (who came up as a passenger in the steamer) speaks in the highest terms of the Mandarin, at whose house he had been staying. The Mandarin expressed a great wish to have the Pirates delivered up to him, offering a reward, which of course was refused. We left this place at 9:30 A.M., returning on our course to Now chow, where we discharged the pilot, and arrived at 4 PM.\n\nBeing too dark to see into the harbour, and having heard that the pirates were assembled at Long your, we anchored at qu... at midnight.

        "content_text": "Inclosure. No 1 in. Despatch.\n\nN 155 of 1849.\n\n294\n\nHER MAJESTY'S SLOOP Columbine, CHOKUM, Cocon-Chinsa, 23 October, 1849.\n\nSIR,\n\nI have the satisfaction to report to Your Excellency the great success of the expedition you did me the honour to place under my command. 58 Piratical Vessels, mounting about 1200 Guns, and with crews of 3000 men, have been totally destroyed by fire; and, by the blessing of God, without the loss of One life of the Officers and Men under my orders.\n\nAfter leaving Hongkong on the 8th October, I searched the Harbours of Concock, Sattei, St John's, Mong, Mance, Sungyue, and Tienpak, and proceeded to Now-chou. From information received there, I determined to proceed to Hoi-how in Hainan, inside the shoals, and through the Junk passage, for I found good pilots, and junks with 14 ft. draught going through, and we drew little more than 15 ft.; moreover Shap-ng-tsai had boasted he would go where English ships dared not follow him. This vaunt I determined to belie. We reached Hoi-how on the 13th, and found the Governor General (Ho) whom I visited at the Capital, in great fear of the Pirates, and with a most friendly feeling to the English nation. He immediately ordered a Mandarin named Wong to proceed with me, taking with him 8 War Junks, and I gave him a passage, to prevent delay, on board the Fury.\n\nOn the 16th we reached Chook-shan, which the Pirate Fleet had left 5 days before, and we found the same sad story of towns destroyed, men murdered, and women taken away, that mark his track along the Coast. We fell in with one of his look-out Vessels, which having got into shallow water, was overtaken by the Phlegethon, and destroyed by her boats under the command of Mr Simpson, 1st Officer.\n\nOn the 19th we reached Hoo-nong, his reported haunt, and found he had gone about 12 miles further, and I feared we had lost him; but that invaluable Officer Mr Daniel R. Caldwell impressed me so strongly with the correctness of his information, that I decided on a reconnaissance in the Phlegethon in spite of our shortness of fuel; and proceeding into Chokeum for that purpose, on Saturday morning the 20th, saw 37 of the fleet under weigh. From 7 until 4 P.M., like terriers at a rat-hole we hunted for the Channel. Then a pilot managed to escape from the shore. I proceeded in Phlegethon, with Fury astern, Columbine in tow, over the Bar 14 ft. (mud), and at 4.40 had the pleasure of finding all the ships warmly engaged. At 5.5 Shap-ng-tsai's Junk blew up with a tremendous crash, and at 5.30 they had ceased firing. Before 8 o'clock 27 were in flames, and the squadron in position to blockade the river.\n\nOn the 21st October, the Steamers and Boats destroyed 24 more; and nine of them gave Lieutenant George Hancock in a Paddle-box boat of Fury, assisted by Captain Moore, R.M. and Mr Close, Acting Mate, with Mr Leao, an opportunity of distinguishing himself. Two large Junks turned to bay, to defend the retreat of the rest, but Mr Hancock so handled his boat and her gun, that after an hour and twenty minutes he had beaten them from their guns, and carried them by boarding without loss, and then pursued and destroyed the other 7.\n\nMr Hancock's boldness in attacking, and correct judgment in managing this affair, are worthy of the highest praise; and Captain Moore, R.M., Mr N. N. C. Leao, a Brazilian Lieutenant, and Mr F. A. Close, Acting Mate, gave him the greatest assistance.\n\nOn Monday the 22nd, I proceeded in Phlegethon and Boats to destroy all that were left. We found that the Mandarins had destroyed 4, and we finished 2 others. The low flat islands at the mouth of the river were at times covered with men deserted from the Junks, yet afraid of the Cochin Chinese, who had assembled in great numbers to attack them. The Ships' boats and small-arm men harassed and destroyed many by constant fire of shell and grape, whilst the Cochin Chinese destroyed and captured the rest.\n\nFrom the best information it appears that the Fleet consisted of 64 Vessels of War, which may be classed as follows:-\n\n  \n    Class\n    No.\n    Guns\n    Crew\n  \n  \n    1st\n    1\n    42\n    120\n  \n  \n    2d\n    16\n    28 to 34\n    75 to 80\n  \n  \n    3d\n    42\n    12 to 19\n    40\n  \n  \n    4th\n    5\n    6\n    30\n  \n  \n    Total,\n    64\n    1224\n    3150\n  \n\nOf these, 2 small of the 3d class and 4 of the 4th have escaped with Shap-ng-tsai, but without much ammunition; and the Mandarin assures me he will shortly destroy him—now an easy prey. He took with him about 400 men, so that 1700 having been killed, about 1000 more remain to be finished by the Cochin Chinese, who have already sent some prisoners to the Mandarins.\n\nI shall now proceed to Hongkong with all despatch. I have the pleasure of mentioning the exceeding good conduct of the Officers and Men during these laborious and hazardous operations. Their unanimity, willingness, and cheerfulness have made it a most pleasant service, and no plunder, rapine, or misconduct, has tarnished their honour.\n\nMajor General Wong, the Mandarin, proved himself a gallant, active, and efficient ally, and I trust his own Government may reward him for his good services. To have Commander Willcox with me, is, I feel, to have success. As a friend and an officer he is unequalled, and his ship is in such good order that I believe there is nothing he could not do. His judgment and gallantry are on an equal footing.\n\nMr Niblett of the Phlegethon has handled his ship in a bold and determined manner, and has given me every assistance. As I was frequently obliged to be in the Steamers, the command of this Sloop has devolved upon Lieutenant J. H. Bridges, Senior Lieutenant, and he conducted her in action on the 20th with much ability.\n\nLieutenant Darnell, Senior of the Fury, in command of her boats, has also rendered good service. Captain Moore of the Hastings's marines has assisted me most materially in command of that body. Lieutenant Hancock, and Mr Chambers, Acting Mate, in command of the respective detachments of Hastings's men, have given me much satisfaction, and Mr Rathbone, Midshipman of the Fury, has brought himself into notice for his zeal.\n\nI have also to notice the name of Mr Algernon Wootton, Midshipman, a most promising young Officer, who has acted as my Aide-de-Camp, and been very useful on every occasion.\n\nI have the honour to enclose a List of the Officers employed in the boats*, who I have no doubt would equally have distinguished themselves if they had had the opportunity.\n\nI enclose a Journal of my Proceedings since leaving Hongkong, together with some Hydrographical Remarks compiled by Mr Thomas Kerr, Acting Master of this sloop, which will, I trust, be of service to commerce and navigation in the Gulf of Tonquin, hitherto so little known. Mr Kerr, during all this very hazardous navigation, has proved himself a careful and judicious Officer.\n\nMr D. R. Caldwell of the Police Force has again proved his talent as a linguist, his intimate knowledge of the Chinese character, and the thorough correctness of his information. To him in a great measure our success is to be attributed.\n\nMr Soames, Master of the Hongkong Company's Steam Vessel Canton, did his work well as Pilot, as far as he was acquainted with the Coast.\n\nI have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient humble Servant,\n\nJOHN C. DALRYMPLE HAY, Commander.\n\nHis Excellency Rear Admiral Sir FRANCIS A. COLLIER, C.B., K.C.H., Commander-in-Chief, &c., &c., &c.\n\n* See next page,\n\nPage 300\n\nPage 301",

In reply to the Despatch of the 20th day of the 8th moon, (14th October,) which I received as an answer, stating that at a proper time attention would be given to its contents, which are empty words without meaning; and requesting at the same time a reply to the Despatch of the 17th of the 8th moon (2d October,) I have now to make the following observation:\n\nThe Despatch says, that the three individuals are not imprisoned, but detained for the necessary inquiries. Now, is not the long period of two months sufficient for the conclusion of these enquiries? In these 7th and 8th moons, two depositions have already been taken of the Criminals who had been on two separate occasions apprehended, and copies of these depositions have been sent accompanied by Despatches; and there is no one who does not know, that this case is already settled. Are not those Depositions of the real aggressor and of an accomplice, then, sufficient documents? And is it still necessary to have recourse to witnesses and enquiries from individuals unconnected with the question?\n\nBesides, after the three individuals have been given up, they will have to continue in the exercise of their duties at the Barrier Gate, and consequently will not be concealed. This is all I have to communicate in reply to the Despatch of the Council of the Portuguese Government.\n\nTaoukwang, 29th year, 9th moon, 17th day. (1st November, 1849)\n\nThe Council of Government of the Province of Macao, Timor, and Solor, to Seu, Viceroy of Canton, Imperial Commissioner, &c., &c.\n\nMOST EXCELLENT SIR,-If this Council required still more proofs to uphold the truth and justice of the assertion which they put forth in the commencement of their Despatch to your Excellency, of the 3d October, these would be afforded by the two last Despatches from your Excellency, dated the 14th ultimo and 1st instant, from which it is seen clearly and evidently, that, far from satisfying, as it behoved the dignity of the Government which your Excellency represents, the just demands of this Council, by replying to the principal point of the question, with which we are now occupied, and which relates solely to the restitution of the mutilated members of the illustrious deceased Governor, your Excellency does not indeed even allude to it in your Despatches; and in order to avoid speaking upon that matter, has recourse to your customary tergiversations,--such as that of saying that the three individuals here detained are unconnected with the question, that the case is already settled, &c.; all of which manifest the little weight your Excellency attaches to this case, which from its gravity has amazed all nations who have witnessed it, and which indeed should have deserved the most serious attention of the Chinese Government, if it had wished to escape the stigma of barbarity and treachery, a stigma which the Nations of the West will, with just reason, now attach to it.\n\nThis Council cannot therefore fail to condemn again in unequivocal terms the repeated acts of injustice and the violation of the most sacred rights of nations committed by your Excellency since the horrible assassination which took place on the 22d August. And in the presence of these, can there still be any hesitation in maintaining that the responsibility of that outrage rests wholly upon the Chinese authorities of Canton?\n\nYour Excellency says that during the period of two moons two trials were concluded. And what is there in this to be wondered at? Do not all those who have read your Excellency's Despatches know the mode in which those trials were conducted? Have not all seen that scarcely three days intervened between the apprehension and execution of Sen-chi-leong? By this way of administering justice, one should rather consider the period of two moons a very long one for the two trials, which your Excellency boasts of having despatched in that space of time, inasmuch as six days would have been sufficient: but it remains to be seen whether a similar proceeding in trials is authorized by the Law. And does your Excellency then wish that such subtleties and artifices, as revolting as they are iniquitous and infamous, should be a sufficient satisfaction for such an enormous and atrocious outrage?\n\nIt is certain that at the time the murder was committed, the post at the Barrier Gate was not abandoned, nor does it appear that the one at Mongha had been at that time vacated; it is also certain, and your Excellency has just confirmed the fact by the confession of Ko-Ahong, that the murderers passed freely through the Barrier Gate. That the officers entrusted with those posts are the ones answerable, and through them the Government of Canton, needs no demonstration: however, it does not appear that they were even called to account; indeed, on the contrary, an anxious solicitude is only observable for the delivery of the three individuals belonging to the post at the Barrier Gate, to which release so much importance has been attached, that in order to obtain it, your Excellency has not scrupled to employ nefarious and iniquitous means, such as that of the exchange proposed by you.\n\nIt is true, as your Excellency told us, that Sen-chi-leong was apprehended and executed; but what certainty is there that he was the real murderer, and not merely a supposititious criminal? Besides, it is already proved that the assassins who attacked the late Governor were seven in number, and although it has been already demonstrated by the numerous wounds which were found in the corpse, that it was impossible for one man alone to put it in the pitiable state in which it was found, all mutilated, as the Tsotang himself saw, nevertheless your Excellency pertinaciously insists upon representing that unfortunate man as the only perpetrator of the crime, and the others who were with him as mere spectators of that infernal deed, in the presence too of facts to the contrary which have been already legally confirmed!\n\nIn the confession of Sen-chi-leong, not the slightest allusion is made to his accomplices; this miserable wretch is there represented as the only criminal; and a month and a half after his execution, two more accomplices are discovered in a most singular way,-one of whom died in the act of being captured, and the other, though severely wounded, still lived to make a confession, different in many essential points from the first, and which those who will reflect a little will easily discover to have been dictated alone by the necessity—which, in the judgment of the person who dictated the first, existed—of justifying the sentence of Sen-chi-leong, as the only murderer of the Most Excellent Governor Amaral; as it is not difficult to discern the anxiety with which the criminal Ko-Ahong was made to say, that Sen-chi-leong alone was he who presented himself to His Excellency, spoke to him, attacked him, and, throwing him from his horse, cut off his head and hand, being hardly assisted by those who were with him, in the flight which he effected conjointly with them through the Barrier Gate. It escaped however the penetration of the writer of this confession that it had already been stated in the commencement thereof, that the two men Ko-Ahong and Li-Apdo had been chosen to carry out the design.\n\nThe very palpable difference that exists between the two confessions is also worthy of remark, namely, that whilst in that of Sen-chi-leong the most studied silence is maintained about his accomplices, speaking of no one but himself, in that of Ko-Ahong, this man occupies himself almost exclusively with Sen-chi-leong and his companions. It is also to be observed that the names of sundry others having been mentioned in this last confession, that of one Kam-Tong, whom the public voice affirms to have been one of the principals, if not the principal himself in that atrocious and barbarous crime, is not introduced. And is it your Excellency's desire that with these and similar fictions and subtleties, all deceitful and unworthy even of a man, much more of a public functionary, the Portuguese Government should declare itself satisfied, regarding the case as already settled, and all the enquiries respecting it as concluded? If this is your Excellency's belief, you will have to acknowledge some time hence that you were greatly deceived.\n\nAs to the justice of the demand which this Council made to your Excellency in their Despatch of the 3d ultimo, it was a very simple one. They merely required that your Excellency should tell them, without circumlocutions, whether you would deliver them the head and hand of the deceased Governor, or whether you wished to traffic with these precious remains; nevertheless, your Excellency has not, up to this date, satisfied so simple a requisition, continuing to keep possession of those mutilated members, as a property of your own, no doubt because you are conscious of having acquired them by means which, in your Excellency's judgment, give you a right of disposing of them as may seem good to you, regardless of constituting yourself by this act a participator in the crime which gave you the possession of them.\n\nThis Council have already endeavoured to shew your Excellency the iniquity of the infamous traffic which you proposed to them, and the necessity of the head and hand being restored to them without any condition or clause whatsoever, which this Council cannot, because they ought not to, admit. They have already, in short, caused your Excellency to see, that such an inhuman and unheard-of act, committed towards the person of the Representative of Her Most Faithful Majesty, amounts to an atrocious offence against the Sovereignty of Her Majesty, and an outrage to the Nation, to whom is due entire and condign reparation. In the face, therefore, of the extraordinary proceedings of your Excellency, and of your tenacious persistence in remaining deaf to the voice of reason and justice; and, as this Council have already informed Her Majesty's Government of all that has taken place, nothing more is left them to do on the subject, but to protest again against your Excellency, holding you responsible for the assassination of the Most Excellent Governor Amaral; for the retention of his head and hand; for the violation of the rights of Her Majesty and the Portuguese Nation; and lastly, for all consequences whatsoever that may result, as well from that act, as from the unqualified proceedings of the Chinese authorities of Canton with regard to it. And, as it is requisite that full knowledge be had of all the circumstances of this unheard-of case, this Council are going to make them known to the Representatives of all Foreign Nations resident here, as well as to the Governments of all other friendly Powers allies of Her Majesty, by means of a Manifesto, of which a copy will also be forwarded to your Excellency.\n\nIn conclusion, this Council trust that after this reply of theirs, the meaning of the words of their last Despatch which your Excellency was pleased to call empty ones, will be sufficiently explained.\n\nMacao, 7th November, 1849.\n\nJERONIMO, Bishop of Macao.-JOAQUIM ANTONIO DE MORAES CARNEIRO.-LUDGERO JOAQUIM DE FARIA NEVES.-MIGUEL PEREIRA SIMÕES.-JOZE BERNARDO GOULARTE.-MANOEL PEREIRA.",

If in all these circumstances doubts are entertained, the life of a man is of great consequence; the execution could not be thus carried into effect without the family of Sen chi-long uttering a word about it. As to the depositions of Low chi bong and H. Ahong, as each of them expressed himself according to his own way, there has been a difference in some circumstances; but there was no discordance in the fact, and all of them have acknowledged their Depositions Ro-thong to be the accomplices, but did not mention the individual Ham-Tong.\n\nAre not the Depositions of the Criminals sufficient to serve as documents, when rumours are still believed? \"With regard to Ho-thong and others who ran away through the Barrier gate, that occasion night was already approaching, the soldiers at that post could not, in the midst of such hurry, recognise them in order to stop them.

        "content_text": "The right and caution with which the fort at Passallião was garrisoned; the numerous pieces of artillery which were mounted on all the surrounding eminences, from that point as far as beyond the Caza Branca; the large bodies of armed men who were assembled at the several posts near Macao; and other measures taken in anticipation. And can it still, in presence of all this, be doubted that the Chinese authorities had entered into the plan, perhaps laid down by themselves, and countenanced its execution? By what other means can the adoption of these measures be explained, all of them preventive ones, as was better seen on the 25th day of August, if their object had been other than an attack on Macao, for which undoubtedly the murder of the Governor was to have been the signal agreed upon? and, had not the plan been frustrated by the promptitude and energy with which the blow was prevented, God knows how far it might have extended! a circumstance which certainly will not be reputed trivial, if the disposition with which it had been premeditated be considered.\n\nThe post at the Barrier, or the Barrier Gate, had been abandoned by the Chinese Guard the same evening of the murder, three individuals only being found there, who afterwards stated they belonged to the same Guard, and who, as they were eye-witnesses of the act, were detained here to give evidence respecting it, and be adduced as witnesses in the investigation.\n\nUnder these circumstances, and in contemplation of the evident danger of an impending invasion with which the settlement was threatened, in the presence of a considerable armed force that at every moment was increasing around it, it was indispensable for the Portuguese Government of Macao to take those precautionary measures which necessity and prudence pointed out as the most urgently demanded for safety and self-defence, by which they were abundantly justified. Of these measures the most provident of all was perhaps the temporary occupation of the Barrier by a Portuguese Force, which the Government ordered to be posted there on the morning of the 28th August, in order that that pass might not be left open to the invasion which threatened the settlement; and the efforts that the Chinese immediately made to dislodge us from that point showed well enough the importance they attached to it, and how anxious they were that their passage through it might not be cut off. The contest which took place on that day, and which terminated successfully for us, was provoked by the aggression on the part of the Chinese, who first opened a fire upon the Portuguese, both from the Fort at Passalhão and various points which were then seen to be fortified on the neighbouring heights, and which was kept up without flagging from 10 o'clock in the morning until 4 in the afternoon, when it became necessary for the Portuguese Force to silence it, and, in order to be able to maintain their post, as the safety and defence of the settlement urgently required, to proceed to dislodge the Chinese from all their positions, returning immediately to their post at the Barrier, which they continued to occupy whilst it was necessary. It was during this contest that the treacherous intentions of the Chinese were most clearly manifested; in proportion as our small force marched forward, means of aggression were discovered, which with so much precaution they had prepared beforehand.\n\nHitherto it has been seen with perfect clearness that the assassination of Governor Amaral was but the result of a plan of vast design, previously laid down, for the development of which that outrage was merely the first step taken; it being also evident (from the facts established) that the presumption that the Chinese Authorities, being aware of it, lent the necessary aid for its complete execution, was well founded. It remains now to be seen how far the subsequent conduct of the same Authorities has justified that presumption; and finally, to establish their immediate and direct responsibility for the crime afterwards consummated.\n\nIf the conduct of the Chinese Authorities prior to that act evinces the previous knowledge which they had of it, their participation and concurrence in it are certainly not less evident when their subsequent conduct is considered. The subtleties and contradictions so palpable in all their correspondence, which strongly displays an excessive anxiety to disfigure and even to deny public and notorious facts, and to prevent as much as possible the exact knowledge of those which depended upon enquiries, abundantly reveal all their ill-will in an affair so serious and of so much gravity; and their immediate interest that the truth should never appear, doubtless because in this they had pledged themselves to keep it back, manifests also their own criminality.\n\nThe simple perusal of the Documents herein referred to is sufficient to show the little fairness and good faith which have presided over all the acts of the aforesaid Authorities in this affair, especially from the time of the capture of the pretended criminal Sen-chi-leong, until the refusal to restore the members robbed from the illustrious deceased. However, this Council cannot refrain from pointing out in this place some of the most remarkable circumstances, in order that the justice and truth of their assertions may be the better seen.\n\nOn the 12th September, twenty-one days after the crime had been committed, one of the criminals is apprehended at Shon-tak, and the head and hand discovered buried at Sam-Tim (Doc. D, 3 in 48) and three days have hardly elapsed, when the criminal is executed on the morning of the 15th, a copy of his confession being transmitted to this Council, (Doc. E, 8 in 90) which being erroneous and false, as it did not agree with the circumstances of the crime, is deficient in all forms and particulars necessary in order to be accepted as sufficient proof of the criminal's guilt.\n\nIt was however upon the strength of this same informal confession that the Viceroy Seu signed his sentence, by virtue of which Sen-chi-leong was executed, all justice being thus disregarded, and all laws trampled upon, not excepting even the Chinese. The illegality of this proceeding is sufficiently demonstrated in the Despatch from this Council of the 25th September (Doc. V, 4 in 98) and although the Viceroy in his letter of the 28th of the same month (Doc. Q, 9 in 98) endeavours ineffectively to maintain that all legal formalities required in such cases were observed, nevertheless his reasons have nothing better than mere assertions to support them, contradicted as they are by the facts established by himself.\n\nThe Viceroy states that the criminal Sen-chi-leong, apprehended on the 12th September, was first examined by the Mandarin of Shon-tak, who took down his depositions—that from thence he was taken to the Tribunal of the Town, and from this to that of the City—that he was afterwards brought before that of the Criminal Judge, and thence to that of the Lieutenant-Governor,—lastly, that after being tried by the Viceroy himself, conjointly with the last named functionary, he was by His Excellency sentenced to suffer the extreme penalty of the law, which was carried into effect on the morning of the 15th, he being taken bound to the scaffold. Now, even admitting that all these proceedings are in conformity with the Laws of the Empire to which His Excellency appeals, as if he had conformed to them, how is it possible to believe that in the short space of three days, not all the formalities of a criminal process of so much importance, but those only which are above enumerated, could have been complied with? All that is seen of so many interrogatories, examinations, depositions, &c., is, that the mere confession of the criminal himself, upon which his sentence was grounded, constitutes the sole proof of his guilt. Sen-chi-leong, therefore, was not a convicted criminal, and even supposing that he was the real assassin, he cannot be regarded legally as such. The confession of the criminal himself is not sufficient proof to condemn him, as justice requires that evidence of the crime should be obtained solely from facts and the depositions of witnesses, and not from a confession, which has all the appearance of being apocryphal, and which, if it proves anything in the present case, it is surely, that the end of all this fictitious process was rather to draw up a long chapter of accusations against the late Governor, than to take cognizance of the abominable and atrocious crime, of which he was the victim; it being worthy of remark that, by a singular coincidence, these are the same accusations that, having first appeared in the Placards posted at Canton, were repeated in the first Despatch from the Viceroy—that of the 27th August—and afterwards arranged for the confession of Sen-chi-leong, from which they were further adopted in that of Ko-A-long (Doc. V, 17 in 98).\n\nThe precipitate execution of Sen-chi-leong could alone satisfy the real criminals, and the Authorities who so summarily sentenced him, and ordered him to be executed in such an informal manner, evidently promoted and served the interests of the real authors of the crime, hindering the means of these being known and the whole truth of the case discovered, as was the better manifested by the capture of Ko-A-long. Between this man's confession, which is another tissue of palpable falsehoods, as was demonstrated by this Council in their Despatch of the 7th instant (Doc. 7, 2 in 110) and that of Sen-chi-leong, remarkable contradictions are met with in several essential points, and the confronting of the criminals, which is the means pointed out of arriving in such cases at the truth of the facts, was rendered impossible by the execution of Sen-chi-leong beforehand, to the grave prejudice of Justice, and the violation of Law.\n\nProceeding with the facts in their regular order, we have now to examine the unjust detention of the mutilated members of the deceased Governor; and, indeed, of all the acts of the Chinese authorities on the occasion of this deplorable event, this is the one in which their extreme bad faith is most conspicuous, and which affords the most convincing proof of their connivance and participation in the crime.\n\nIf these authorities could by any means succeed in removing from themselves the responsibility which attaches to them in consequence of their proceedings prior to this occurrence, this act of theirs would alone be sufficient to condemn them. Could they even prove that the death of Governor Amaral was the work of mere assassins, the retention of the revered members by the Viceroy is no longer the work of these, nor do they share the responsibility of the abject and degrading advantage that was intended to be gained thereby.\n\nThe Viceroy, if he were sincere, should have forthwith said in his letter of the 16th September, that the delivery of the three Chinese detained here must be a sine qua non condition for the restitution of the head and hand: but he did not act so; he informed the Council that he had sent those remains in charge of a deputed officer, merely pointing out the release of the three Chinese abovementioned, not as a condition, but as a consequence of the restitution of the same remains; at the same time that he gave positive orders to the deputed officer not to deliver up his charge as he had written to the Council, but to traffic with it on his behalf, and to purchase in exchange for it the release of the said Chinese.\n\nThis stipulation was for the first time introduced in the chop from the Tsotang of the 20th September (Doc. G, 8 in 98) in which he says that, in order to show good faith, it was proper that the three men should be first given up; but although in his chops (Doc. I, J, M, O, P in 98) subsequent to the reply made to him on that occasion by the Procurador of the City, (Doc. H, b in 98) he always alluded to the delivery of those individuals, it is nevertheless evident from the terms of the same chops, and from the very explicit and positive declaration contained in the answer from the Procurador, that the tone of that demand was greatly modified, and the Tsotang, no doubt to show good faith, no longer insisted upon it as an indispensable condition to the delivery of the head and hand; and it was only repeated in the above sense in his second chop of the 26th September (Doc. M, 6 in 98) forwarded however at daybreak on the 27th, and a little before the hour that had, at his request, been fixed for him to deliver up the remains at the Barrier Gate.\n\nFrom this moment all the artifice of this infamous intrigue was known, and no time was lost in pointing out to the Tsotang, in the letter that was written to him on the morning of the 27th (Doc. N, b in 98), the irregularity of his proceedings. But this Council, wishing still to afford the Viceroy an opportunity of escaping from the grave position in which he had inconsiderately placed himself, wrote to him the following day (Doc. I, 5 in 98) acquainting him with what had happened, and attributing all the responsibility of that act to the Mandarins, his subordinates; but what was their astonishment when they found, amidst the circumlocutions and contradictions with which the letter that the Viceroy addressed to them in reply on the 30th September (Doc. S, 10 in 98) abounds, that His Excellency not only confirmed and acknowledged the condition insisted on by the deputed officer, but also expressed for the first time the opinion that the affair was already terminated by the payment of life for life!\n\nThe subtlety with which it was sought in this letter to confound the question of the murder of the Governor of the Province, with that of the retention of his mutilated members, for the obvious purpose of taking advantage of it in support of the argument already adduced in a previous letter, that the three Chinese belonging to the Barrier Gate detained at Macao have nothing to do with this question, is indeed astonishing; but from this subtlety nothing resulted but a palpable contradiction; inasmuch as, it being evident that the question alluded to in the letter is that of the retention of the head and hand, and the Viceroy acknowledging that the three Chinese detained have nothing to do with it, it is nevertheless His Excellency himself who pretends that its termination is dependent upon their release. This is arguing reasonably, as His Excellency says should be done, and not according to one's mere inclinations!\n\nThe object of the Viceroy being, as is easily seen, to elude the principal point of the question, so as to avoid a precise answer, and this Council being desirous of cutting off all pretext for new cavils, which the want of perfect clearness in the correspondence might afterwards afford, further addressed to the Viceroy their Despatch of the 3d October (Doc. T, 11 in 98) in which they required of him an explicit and categorical declaration, whether he would deliver up the heart and hand retained in his possession, or whether he persisted in keeping possession of those remains, in order to traffic with them, as was his original intention. But His Excellency having maintained a perfect silence up to the 14th, wrote on that day to the Council, (Doc. U, 17 in 98) informing them of the capture of Ko-A-long, and transmitted the confession of this man, without however making the slightest allusion to the Despatch from this Council of the 3d, on which account a Duplicate of it was sent to him, with another Despatch of the 22d (Doc. X, not lent), to which His Excellency at last replied on the 1st November (Doc. Y, 2 in 20), not with the clearness and precision which had been required of him, but with new evasions entirely foreign to our question, persisting still on this occasion to regard the case as dealt with, that is to say, to regard the case as settled and concluded, and still requiring the release of the three men detained; by which it is easily seen that the Viceroy is excessively interested from motives which must be well known to His Excellency.\n\nThe necessity of occupying themselves with the present task has been extremely disagreeable to this Council, but they feel it to be imperative on them not to leave unpreclaimed manifest and irrefutable, although pungent and bitter, truths, which had been unjustly provoked, in order to establish and fix by unquestionable facts the responsibility of that iniquitous outrage on the head of him to whom it belongs; the expositions and documents brought forward in this Manifesto appearing to them sufficiently to prove,—\n\n1st, That the treacherous and barbarous assassination of the Councillor Joao Maria Ferreira do Amaral, Governor of this Province, was nothing else than the consequence of a premeditated plan of aggression, for the development of which this act was the first step agreed upon.\n\n2dly, That if this plan was not concocted with the concurrence of the Chinese authorities, its execution was countenanced by them.\n\n3dly, That the same authorities, by refusing to satisfy the just demands made on them, and with which they were bound to comply, and by committing other acts in violation of the Law of Nations, constituted themselves participators in the crime which by the same law they were bound to punish.\n\n4thly, That, in conclusion, all the responsibility of this atrocious crime, and of all its consequences, attaches to the same authorities, for which responsibility this Council again protest, renewing all their former protests, which they hereby ratify, in the hope that this responsibility will one day be made effective for the satisfaction and redress of outraged Rights trampled under foot, of violated Laws, and of so many and so sacred\n\nMacao, 26th November, 1849.\n\nJERONIMO, Bishop of Macao.—JOAQUIM ANTONIO DE MORAES CARNEIRO.—LUDGERO JOAQUIM DE FARIA NEVES.—MIGUEL PEREIRA SIMÕES.—JOZE BERNARDO GOULARTE.—MANOEL PEREIRA.\n\nPage 418",

Destas medidas foi talvez a mais providente de todas, a ocupação temporária da Barreira por uma força portuguesa, que ali mandou postar o Governo na manhã do dia 25, a fim de não deixar aquele passo franco à invasão, que ameaçava o Estabelecimento; e os esforços, que desde logo fizeram os Chinas para nos desalojar daquele ponto, assaz demonstram o valor que lhe davam, e o quanto empenhados estavam, em que por ali lhe não fosse cortada a passagem. O conflito que nesse dia teve lugar, e que terminou com fortuna nossa, foi provocado pela agressão provinda da parte dos Chinas, que rompendo primeiro o fogo sobre a gente portuguesa, assim da Fortaleza de Passaleão, como de vários pontos, que então pareceram fortificados nas eminências vizinhas, o sustentaram com todo o calor desde as 10 horas da manhã até às 4 da tarde, quando foi preciso à força portuguesa, fazê-lo calar, e, para poder conservar a sua posição, como altamente o reclamavam a segurança e defesa do Estabelecimento, ir desalojá-los de todas as suas posições voltando logo depois ao seu posto na Barreira, que continuou a ocupar enquanto foi necessário; sendo durante este conflito, que mais claramente se manifestaram os intentos traiçoeiros dos Chinas, à medida que na marcha da nossa pequena força se iam descobrindo os meios de agressão, com que eles tão antecipadamente se haviam prevenido.\n\nAté aqui se tem visto com toda a clareza que o assassinato do Governador Amaral não foi senão o resultado de um plano previamente traçado, e de mui vasto alcance, para cujo desenvolvimento aquele atentado fora apenas o primeiro passo dado; sendo também evidente, à vista dos factos estabelecidos, que era bem fundada\n\n(7)\n\n424\n\na presunção de que as Autoridades Chinesas, cientes dele, prestaram o auxílio necessário para a sua completa execução. Resta agora ver até que ponto a conduta posterior das mesmas autoridades veio justificar aquela presunção, e estabelecer a final a sua imediata e direta responsabilidade pelo crime depois dele consumado.\n\nSe a conduta das Autoridades Chinesas anterior àquele facto evidencia o conhecimento prévio que dele tinham, não é de certo menos evidente a sua participação e concorrência nele à vista da sua conduta posterior. As argucias e contradições, que tão palpáveis são em toda a sua correspondência, a qual se ressente fortemente de um excessivo empenho de desfigurar, e até mesmo negar, factos públicos, e notórios, e empecer quanto era possível o exato conhecimento daqueles que dependiam de averiguações, revelam sobejamente todo o seu despeito em um assunto tão sério, e de tanta gravidade, e o seu imediato interesse em que nunca aparecesse a verdade, sem dúvida porque nisso estava empenhada a consciência de ficar, com ela, manifesta também a sua própria criminalidade.\n\nA simples leitura dos documentos aqui apensos basta para mostrar a pouca lealdade, e boa fé que tem presidido a todos os atos das referidas autoridades neste negócio, mui especialmente desde a prisão do pretendido réu Sen-Chi-Leong, até à recusa da restituição dos membros roubados ao Ilustre Finado; comtudo este Conselho não se dispensará de apontar neste lugar algumas das circunstâncias mais notáveis, para que melhor se veja a justiça, e a verdade das suas asserções.\n\nNo dia 12 de setembro, isto é, vinte e um dias depois de perpetrado o crime, é preso um dos réus em Shon-Tac, e descobertas a cabeça e a mão (doc. D) enterradas em Sam-Tim, e passados apenas três dias, é o réu justiçado na manhã do dia 15, sendo remetida a este Conselho uma cópia de sua confissão (doc.

X), à qual, afinal, S. Exa. responde em 1 do corrente (doc. Y), não com a clareza e precisão que lhe cumpria, como lhe havia sido requerido, mas com novas evasivas, inteiramente alheias à nossa questão, insistindo ainda desta vez em dar o caso por tratado, isto é, terminado e concluído, e na soltura dos três detidos, na qual é fácil de ver que o Sunto está demasiadamente interessado, por motivos que devem ser de S.

Exa. inquirido pessoalmente a esse criminoso, cuja confissão veio remettida, por copia não authentica, com o dito Officio, V. Exa. o mandara justiçar, e ordenara, que a sua cabeça fosse entregue ao mesmo Commissario para ser trazida a Macao, e exposta no mesmo lugar em que foi commettido o crime, para escarmento dos outros.\n\nEste Conselho havia reservado responder ao sobredito Officio de V. Exa. para depois que tivesse recebido a cabeça e a mão do Illustre Governador, mas não se tendo até esta data verificado a sua entrega, o que é summamente estranhavel depois de V. Exa. haver dito positivamente que havia feito a remessa no dia 16, o Conselho julga não dever differir por mais tempo esta resposta, muito principalmente por que lhe incumbe nesta mesma occasião repellir o modo insolito por que V. Exa. achou conveniente tratar este negocio, e protestar contra o novo insulto, que no referido Officio foi dirigido ao Governo Portuguez, como melhor se verá no desenvolvimento desta resposta.\n\nEm primeiro lugar cumpre a este Conselho insistir de modo o mais positivo na prompta entrega da cabeça e mão do Finado Governador; cuja retenção não pode já mais justificar-se depois da declaração official por V.

Que o Governador Portuguez Amaral, em vida tinha obrado crueldades; que fóra das portas do campo tinha aberto estradas, destruindo e arrasando sepulturas; pelo que tanto os de dentro, como os de fóra lhe conceberam odio. Que Amaral destruio não só as sepulturas pertencentes ao declarante; mas tambem as de Sen-Chi-Leong e Li-Apao. Por essa rasão intentaram elles assassinar o Amaral, para satisfazerem o seu odio. Em consequencia fizeram a consulta, e elle declarante, e Li-Apao foram apontados para executores do plano; Sen-Chi-Leong, os dois por appellido Chou, e um por appellido Cheu, que elles puderam aggregar, para os coadjuvarem em fazer barreira (aos que quizessem accudir). Que aos 5a. da 7a. Lua tendo elles ouvido dizer fisicamente, que Amaral sahiria ao passeio á Porta do Cerco, foram lá fazer espera. Pela tarde tendo o Amaral passado por ali a cavallo, Sen-Chi-Leong trazendo na mão um chapeo de chuva fechado em que tinha escondida no cabo uma espada afiada, appresentando-se disfarçadamente como quem queria fazer queixa, dizendo em alta voz, que representava contra injustiças; e no momento que o Amaral estendia a mão para receber o requerimento, Sen-Chi-Leong puxou logo pela espada, e lhe foi dando cutiladas no braço, até que com dores veio do cavallo abaixo, e o dito Sen-Chi-Leong lhe cortou logo a cabeça, e conjuntamente com o declarante e outros, safou-se pela Porta do Cerco, e depois de ter feito libações aos manes dos seus antepassados, se dispersaram, seguindo cada qual o seu caminho. Que ouvindo depois, que andavam em diligencias para prender os assassinos, elle declarante e Li-Apao consultaram em tomar uma embarcação, e fugir para Hu-Nan. Ali então foram inesperadamente perseguidos pelo guia e soldados, até a villa de Lochang, onde Li-Apao na occasião que elles estavam fazendo resistencia aos soldados, que iam sobre a embarcação, ficou ferido de um tiro, e cahio ao mar, onde morreu afogado; e elle declarante, que estava tambem defendendo-se com espada contra os soldados, que iam saltar na embarcação, foi gravemente ferido, e foi preso e conduzido. Que é verdade tudo quanto declarou. — Traduzido por mim abaixo assignado. — João Rodrigues Gonsalves.\n\n(a) Em Cantão se diz — Siu-Chau.\n\n—(X)—O Conselho do Governo da Provincia de Macao, Timor, e Solor, à Sua Exa.

Lua (2 de Outubro) passo, pois, a fazer as seguintes observações. Diz o Officio, que os tres individuos não estão presos mas sim detidos para as necessarias averiguações. Ora, decurso de dois mezes não é ainda tempo sufficiente para concluir essas averiguações? Quando n'estas 7a. e 8a. Luas já se tem tomado dois depoimentos dos réos, que por duas vezes tinham sido aprehendidos, e destes depoimentos se remetteram copias acompanhadas de Officios; e ninguem ha que não saiba, que este caso já está tratado. Estes depoimentos do verdadeiro aggressor, e d'outro cumplice não são pois, sufficientes documentos, e ainda é preciso recorrer á testemunhas e averiguações de individuos alheios da questão? Quanto mais que, depois de serem entregues os tres individuos, terão elles de continuar no exercicio do seu emprego na Porta do Cerco, e não hão de, por conseguinte, estar escondidos.

        "content_text": "e Solor, a Siu Vice-Rei de Cantão, Commissario Imperial ect; ect: Exmo. Sr.--Se este Conselho precisasse ainda de provas para sustentar a verdade e justiça da asserção que elle deixou consignada no principio do seu Officio a V.Exa, de 3 de Outubro, ahi as tinha agora nos dois ultimos officios de V. Exa. datados de 14 do mez passado, e 1.º do corrente, dos quaes se vê clara e evidentemente, que longe de satisfazer, como cumpria á dignidade do Governo que V. Exa. representa, as justas requisições deste Conselho, respondendo-lhe sobre o ponto principal da questão, que ora nos occupa, e que versa unicamente sobre a restituição dos membros mutilados do Ilmo. Finado Governador, V. Exa. nem se quer a elle allude nos seus Officios; e, para se esquivar de fallar sobre essa materia, recorre ás suas costumadas tergiversações, como é o dizer que os tres individuos aqui detidos são alheios á questão, que o caso já está tratado ect: o que tudo evidencia o menos preço em que V. Exa. tem este caso, que pela sua gravidade tem assombrado a todas as nações que o presencearam, e que decerto devia ter merecido mais seria attenção ao Governo Chinez, se elle quizesse acaso fugir á nóta de barbaro e traidor, nóta que as nações do Oeste com justo rasão lhe hão de impôr hoje.\n\nEste Conselho não pode por tanto deixar de condemnar novamente em termos nada equivocos os repetidos actos de injustiça e violação dos mais sagrados direitos das gentes, practicados por V. Exa. desde o assassinato horroroso commetido no dia 22 de Agosto. E á vista delles poderá ainda haver alguma duvida em se asseverar que a responsabilidade daquelle attentado péza toda sobre as Authoridades Chinezas de Cantão?\n\nDiz V. Exa., que no periodo de duas Luas concluiu dois julgamentos. E o que é que ha nisso para admirar? Porventura não sabem já todos, quantos tem lido os Officios de V. Exa., o modo porque se conduziram aquelles julgamentos? Não viram todos, que entre apprehensão e execução de Shen-Chi Leong apenas medearam tres dias? Por esta forma de administrar justiça, deve-se antes considerar muito longo o periodo de duas Luas para os dois julgamentos, que V. Exa. se jacta de ter aviado naquelle espaço de tempo, pois era sufficiente o de seis dias; mas resta ver se similhante andamento nos processos é o authorisado pela lei.\n\nE quer então V. Exa. que similhantes subtilezas, e argucias, tão revoltantes, como ellas são iniquas e infames, sejam satisfação bastante de um tão enorme como atroz attentado!\n\nÉ certo que ao tempo de ser perpetrado o assassinio não estava a vigia da Porta do Cerco abandonada, nem consta que a do Monghá estivesse aquelle tempo desamparada: sendo tambem certo, e V. Exa. o acaba de confirmar com a confissão de Ko-Ahong, que os assassinos passaram livremente pela Porta do Cerco. Que os cabeças ou encarregados daquellas vigias são os responsaveis, e por elles o Governo de Cantão, não carece demonstração; comtudo ainda não consta que elles fossem ao menos chamados a responder: antes ao contrario só se nota um afanoso empenho pela entrega dos tres individuos pertencentes á vigia da Porta do Cerco, a que se deu tanta importancia, que mesmo se não escrupulisou, para a obter, de tentar um meio nefando e iniquo, como é o da troca por V. Exa. proposta. Sea-Chi-Leong foi preso, e justiçado, V. Exa. o disse, é verdade; mas que certesa ha de que fosse elle o verdadeiro assassino, e não um réo supposto? Alem disto está já provado que sette foram os assassinos que accometteram ao finado Governador, e posto esteja já demonstrado, pelas innumeraveis feridas que se encontraram no cadaver, que era impossivel a um homem só pô-lo no lastimoso estado em que elle foi achado, todo mutilado, como bem o vio o mesmo Csotang, comtudo se insiste pertinazmente em apresentar aquelle infeliz como o unico executor, e aos outros que com elle estavam, como meros expectadores daquella infernal obra, á face mesmo de factos em contrario, e já legalmente comprovados! Na confissão de Sen-Chi-Leung nem a mais leve alusão se faz aos seus cumplices; este infeliz é ali representado como o unico réo; e passado mez e meio depois da sua execução são descobertas, de um modo muito singular, mais dois cumplices, dos quaes um morre no acto da prisão, e outro, posto que gravemente ferido, ainda viveo para fazer uma nova confissão, divergente em muitos pontos essenciaes da primeira, e que os que pensarem um pouco facilmente conhecerão não haver sido dictada se não pela necessidade, no juizo de quem dictou a primeira, de cohonestar a sentença de Shen-Chi-Leong, como o unico assassino do Exmo. Governador Amaral; pois sem muito trabalho se pode ver o empenho com que se fez dizer ao réo Ko-Ahong, que só Sen-Chi-Leong foi que se apresentara a S. Exa, lhe fallara, o accommettera, e, derribando-o do cavallo abaixo, lhe cortara a cabeça e a mão, sendo apenas coadjuvado, pelos que com elle estavam, na fuga que effectuou conjunctamente com estes pela Porta do Cerco, posto que á perspicacia de quem escreveu a confissão tivesse escapado a declaração consignada no principio della de haverem sido escolhidos os dois Ko Ahong, e Li-Apao para executores do plano.\n\nTambem é digno de notar-se a mui palpavel differença que ha entre aquellas duas confissões, e vem a ser, que em quanto na de Sen-Chi-Leong se guardou mui estudado silencio acerca dos seus complices, não fallando elle em mais que na sua propria pessoa, na de Ko-Ahong, este se occupa quasi exclusivamente de Sen-Chi-Leong, e seus companheiros; sendo tambem muito de reparar, que mencionando-se nesta ultima confissão os nomes de tantos outros, se calasse o de um Kam-Tong, que a voz publica affirma ter sido um dos principaes, senão o principal naquelle atroz e barbaro crime. E teria V. Exa. que com estas e outras ficções, e subtilezas todas dolosas, e indignas até do homem, quanto mais do funccionario, se desse o Governo Portuguez por satisfeito, tendo por já tratado o caso, e por concluidas todas as averiguações acerca delle? Se V. Exa. em tal acreditou, ha de ter de reconhecer com o tempo que acreditou em um engano.\n\nCum-\n\n436\n\nSobre ser justa, bem simples era a requisição que este Conselho fez a V. Exa. no seu Officio de 3 do mez passado. Elle requereu só.",

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.

Fremantle's Fees to the Treasury which must be in future that Warrants be drawn in the proper form to be further submitted to the Colonies.\n\nPage 180\n\nPage 181\n\nThe Commissary General's office stated he would decline to make payments of such Warrants as were issued contrary to the prescribed rules, it being impossible to keep proper Accounts when there was such an entire deviation from the prescribed Rules of the Treasury. Matthew Forster Esq., Merchant of high character, and standing securities to the Crown, lately stated that he considered my Accounts to be as complete as any he had ever seen.\n\nI trust therefore that any unfavourable impression in the Secretary of State's Dept. for the Colonies, arising from the conditional resignation of my office in order that I might effect a reduction in useless expenditure & prevent large Contingent and other charges, may be removed.",

The first step is to correct these errors and reorganize the text.\n\n## Step 2: Apply Markdown formatting for structure.\nThe text should be formatted using Markdown for headers, sections, and bold labels.\n\n## Step 3: Correct spelling errors and fix spacing issues.\nCorrecting spelling errors and fixing spacing issues are crucial. For example, \"wick Short he completist\" could be corrected to \"With regard to the completion\" based on context, but since the instruction is not to rephrase, we'll correct obvious errors like \"desciable\" to \"desirable\".\n\n## Step 4: Rejoin broken sentences and restore paragraph breaks.\nSentences split across lines or columns should be rejoined, and paragraph breaks should be restored where necessary.\n\n## Step 5: Indicate missing words and follow other instructions.\nIf a word is clearly missing, `...` should be inserted. File references should have no spaces inside parentheses.\n\nGiven the complexity and the errors in the original text, a corrected version in HTML format using  for paragraphs is provided below.

Previmle\" (left as is, potentially a person's name), \"Traumit\" (potentially \"Transmit\"), \"Cypcene\" (potentially \"Cypriot\" or another geographical name), \"suggulastey\" (potentially \"suggestively\"), \"fotond\" (potentially \"forward\"), \"Hm pr 27 Jam\" to \"my letter of 27 Jan\", \"Yener obed\" (potentially \"Your obedient\"), \"J.JM\" (left as is, potentially initials), \"Howling Juby 91862\" to \"Howling July 9 1862\", \"від\" (left as is, potentially a non-English word or character), \"Blan\" (left as is, potentially \"Blank\" or part of \"Inventory\"), \"Rory\" (left as is, potentially a person's name or a typo), \"Ootan meite\" (potentially \"certain matter\" or a specific term), \"Cocoining Prest\" (potentially \"Commanding Officer\"), and \"Me han\" (potentially \"We have\").\n\n2. The text was reorganized into proper paragraphs.\n\n3. Markdown formatting was not directly applied to the output; instead, HTML `\n\n` tags were used as per the final instruction.\n\n4. File references were checked for spacing inside parentheses, but none were found in the given text.\n\n5. Page numbering lines were not present in the provided text, so no action was taken regarding them.\n\nThe output is given in HTML format as instructed, using `\n\n` tags for paragraphs.",

Corrected \"Sicurini\" to \"Security\".\n2. Corrected \"Jauns\" to a possible proper noun but left as is due to uncertainty; however, \"ou\" seems incorrect and might need further context.\n3. Corrected \"Seuerni\" to \"Severni\" (assuming it's a name).\n4. Corrected \"hauled\" to \"handed\".\n5. Corrected \"lucmoriah\" to \"memorandum\".\n6. Corrected \"recoupame\" to \"accompanied\".\n7. Corrected \"His Kreellency\" to \"His Excellency\".\n8. Corrected \"جلو\" to an empty line as it seems to be a non-ASCII character not making sense in the context.\n9. Corrected \"Chief click\" to \"Chief Clerk\".\n10. Corrected \"9# butant\" to \"9th instant\".\n11. Corrected \"Sam\" to an empty line as it seems out of context and not making sense.\n12. Corrected \"Mr.\" to be added before \"Almada e Castro\" as it is a title.\n13. \"11f1854\" is likely a typo or OCR error; assuming it should be a date or reference number, but left as is due to lack of clear correction.\n14.

For example, \"employ may have somerting to to. And that the auxions desire of the people be carried out of such a thing is allowed, your petitioner bego that a it in writing be given.\" should be corrected to \"employ may have something to do. And that the anxious desire of the people be carried out if such a thing is allowed, your petitioner begs that it in writing be given.\"\n\n## Step 4: Restore paragraph breaks and indicate missing words.\nThe original text has merged or split paragraphs. For instance, the petition and the official notices should be separated into distinct paragraphs or sections. Missing words due to OCR damage should be indicated with \"...\".\n\n## Step 5: Format the text in Markdown and apply the given rules.\nThe text should be formatted using Markdown syntax for headers, bold text, and tables. File references should not have spaces inside parentheses.\n\n## Step 6: Reorder newspaper texts and reconstruct tables.\nNewspaper texts that are out of order due to OCR column recognition issues should be reordered. Data presented in a table format should be reconstructed into proper tables.\n\n## Step 7: Adjust Chinese writing direction if necessary.\nIf any Chinese text is present and was originally written from right to left, it should be reversed to meet modern reading habits.\n\n## Step 8: Output the corrected text in HTML format using  for paragraphs.\nThe final corrected text should be output in HTML format, using \n\n tags for paragraphs.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\nproble of \n\nM8 \n\nemploy may have something to do.

Government can do it much more cheaply and efficiently for the purposes of the project than any other undertaker. I could state many reasons for this. For instance, the supply of granite, and the command of public departments, particularly of the Survey Department, would ensure the solidity, uniformity, and strength of the construction if carried out by Government. It would be unfair again if one individual were to build his portion imperfectly, whilst that of his neighbour was built strong; occurrence of a typhoon might, after all, occasion a total loss of property to the latter as well as to the former; - and yet, if individuals are to build portion by portion, this inequality of execution cannot be prevented. Another reason is that the work must be defended by buttresses and breakwaters against the swell, and, at intervals, there must be steps going down to the wall.\n\nPage 314",

        "content_text": "Jn 11050/51\n\n281\n\n# MEMORANDUM\n\nAddressed to the JUSTICES OF THE PEACE by His Excellency Sir JOHN BOWRING, and relative Correspondence.\n\n## MEMORANDUM\n\nIn a Commission issued on the 4th October 1855, by His Excellency the Governor, thirteen Gentlemen were nominated Justices of the Peace, they not being invested with other Official authority. The number has been augmented by subsequent Commissions to Fifteen in all.\n\nHis Excellency has caused a Return to be made of the number of attendances at Petty Sessions since the time of the issuing these Commissions.\n\nHe finds that one gentleman has given six attendances, five gentlemen have given two attendances, and two gentlemen have given one attendance, while seven gentlemen have given no attendance since their appointment.\n\nHe has to remark that there have been only two occasions on which more than one Justice has assisted the stipendiary Magistrates with their presence and advice.\n\nOn these two occasions four Justices attended, three of whom for the first time since they were sworn in. They are stated to have been present at the special request of the Acting Chief Magistrate—and on the first of those occasions (the 23rd May) there was, as it appears, an unanimous concurrence in a decision by which, in the judgment of His Excellency, the obvious intent and meaning of the Law were abrogated and annulled by the action of the Bench.\n\nOn the 2nd June, invited again (as is officially reported) specially by the Acting Chief Magistrate, three of the Justices who had been present at the sitting of 23rd May, and another Justice who took his seat then for the first and only time in which he has ever acted, formed the Bench, and these Justices again supported the Chief Magistrate in his determination not to give effect to the Law. His Excellency is informed that one of the Justices present—a member of the Legislative Council—distinctly pointed out to his colleagues the error which had been committed on the 23rd May and which had been the subject of reference to the Legislative Council. That gentleman, of course, dissented from the conclusion by which a majority co-operated with the Chief Magistrate in his extraordinary course of proceeding.\n\nFor the maintenance of that supreme authority of the Law which, in the great interests of the whole community, every Government is bound to provide for, and of which all Justices of the Peace are expected to be instruments and auxiliaries, His Excellency directed an application for a mandamus against the Acting Chief Magistrate to be applied for to the Chief Justice in the Supreme Court of the Colony, which mandamus has been granted by His Honor, calling upon the Chief Magistrate to enforce the Law. Its granting was accompanied, as His Excellency is informed, by a declaration from the Bench that \"the Magisterial Decisions were against the Law,\" and a prompt obedience was recommended to its requirements.\n\nHis Honor expressed a hope that there would be an immediate and satisfactory return to the mandamus, showing that there is no disposition to overturn the authority of the Law, but rather to give effect to its provisions.\n\nHis Excellency concurring in that wish, and desirous of promoting that unity of purpose and of action, which should undoubtedly be the object of all who are invested with Public authority for the maintenance of Law and Order, has directed the memorandum to be circulated among all the Justices of the Peace.\n\n(Signed)\n\nBy order of His Excellency the Governor, with the concurrence of the Honorable Members of the Executive Council.\n\nL. DE ALMADA E CASTRO,\n\nClerk of Councils, Government Offices, Victoria, Hongkong. 19th August, 1856.\n\nAddressed to,\n\nThe Honorable W. T. MERCER, Esq; The Honorable J. F. EDGER, Esq; CHARLES MAY, Esq;\n\nJOSEPH JARDINE, Esq; GEORGE LYALL, Esq; JOHN D. GIBB, Esq\n\nCHARLES F. STILL, Esq;\n\nR. S. WALKER, Esq;\n\nJOHN RICKETT, Esq;\n\nCaptain T. V. WATKINS, RN,\n\nW. H. MITCHELL, Esq;\n\nR. C. ANTROBUS, Esq;\n\nT. C. LESLIE, Esq;\n\nANGUS FLETCHER, Esq;\n\nA. C. MACLEAN, Esq;\n\nWILLIAM LAMOND, Esq;\n\nThe Honorable T. C. ANSTEY, Esq;\n\nSAM GRAY, Esq;\n\nJOHN SCARTU, Esq.\n\nHONGKONG, 26th August, 1856,\n\nTo The Honble. W. T. MERCER, Esq.,\n\nColonial Secretary.\n\nSIR—We have the honour to address you with reference to a Memorandum dated 19th Instant, addressed to the Justices of the Peace of this Colony, by order of His Excellency the Governor, with the concurrence of the Honorable Members of the Executive Council.\n\nThe first four paragraphs being of a general nature we pass over for the present, but the remainder of the Memorandum demands more particular notice from us, as the Justices immediately alluded to therein.\n\nWe deem it unnecessary to enter into any discussion regarding the merits of the cases to which particular reference is made, or to the decision at which we arrived after careful deliberation.\n\nIf the complainant was dissatisfied therewith, recourse was open by appeal to the Supreme Court.\n\nWe cannot however permit the charges and insinuations contained in the Memorandum to pass unnoticed, impugning as they do our motives of action while sitting on the Bench as sworn Magistrates.\n\nWe observe that in the \"judgment of His Excellency the obvious intent and meaning of the Law were abrogated and annulled by the action of the Bench on the 23rd May, and, that on the 2nd June, invited again (as is officially reported) specially by the Acting Chief Magistrate, three of the Justices who had been present at the sitting of 23rd May, and another Justice who took his seat then for the first and only time in which he has ever acted, formed the Bench, and these Justices again supported the Chief Magistrate in his determination not to give effect to the Law, and co-operated with the Chief Magistrate in his extraordinary course of proceeding.\"\n\nWe know not by what course of reasoning His Excellency may have arrived at these conclusions, but, while we, with all due respect, indignantly deny the imputations thus cast upon our motives, we challenge the right of His Excellency, the Executive Council, or any other authority to dictate our course of action while on the Bench, or to publicly question, in such terms, our decision when given.\n\nWe would also point out to His Excellency that the inference which may be drawn from the Memorandum under notice, that the writ of Mandamus issued by His Honor the Chief Justice had reference to the decisions of the Justices on 23rd May and 2nd June, is an incorrect one. The question submitted to His Honour was, whether, under the Ordinance No. 8 of 1856, a Magistrate could decline to hear a fresh complaint on a case which he considered already decided. His Honour decided that he could not refuse to hear such a complaint, and desired the Acting Chief Magistrate and Mr. May to enquire, without delay, into the complaint, and adjudicate thereon; but so far as we are able to learn, His Honour from the Bench made no reference to and gave no opinion upon the decisions of 23rd May and 2nd June.\n\nReflections, involving a slur upon our character, have been cast upon us, for which we were quite unprepared; and, feeling deeply their injustice, we have submitted our conduct in the cases which have given rise to them to our Brother Justices, whose opinion thereon will reach His Excellency in another form,—We have, &c., &c.\n\nTo The Honorable\n\nGEO. LYALL. WM. LAMOND,\n\nTHOS. C. LESLIE.\n\nR. C. ANTROBUS.\n\nHONGKONG, 20th August, 1856.\n\nThe COLONIAL SECRETARY of Hongkong,\n\nSIR,\n\nWe, the undersigned, Justices of the Peace for the Colony of Hongkong, have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of the Memorandum issued by His Excellency the Governor, under date the 19th instant, addressed to all the members of the commission of the Peace, as well official as non-official.\n\nA meeting of the Justices, duly called by circular, took place on the 25th instant, for the purpose of taking the memorandum into consideration. The meeting was attended by the undersigned, and by the four non-official Justices specially alluded to in the memorandum, comprising the whole of the non-official Justices in the commission at present in the colony, with the exception of one who was prevented from attending by indisposition. None of the official Justices attended.\n\nThe grave importance of the imputations made by His Excellency in the memorandum, and of the principles involved in it, compelled our most serious attention, and we beg respectfully to submit to His Excellency the following observations in reply.\n\nThe remarks in the memorandum regarding the return of attendances of Justices at Sessions appear to imply a complaint...",

On both of the occasions in question the Bench specially and repeatedly urged the Plaintiff to remove the case by writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court, not because any doubt was entertained of the justice or legality of their decision, but because it was of the greatest consequence that the construction of an ordinance affecting interests of great magnitude, and so ambiguous in its terms, should at once be settled by the highest judicial authority of the colony. Considering that the Plaintiff on both occasions was representing the interests of the Crown, it is our humble opinion that the course recommended by the Bench of Justices would have been not only more correct but more just and dignified than that which His Excellency has seen fit to pursue.\n\nIt further came under the notice of the meeting that upon both occasions the Bench specially and repeatedly urged the Plaintiff to remove the case by writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court...\n\n...\n\nPage 282\n\n(Signed) SAM GRAY, Chairman of the Meeting of Justices of the Peace on the 25th instant.\n\nJ.

Turner's room, Wellington Street, on Thursday, the 16th October, 1856, in accordance with a requisition numerously signed both by Europeans and Chinese, for the purpose of taking into consideration several points in recently-passed Ordinances, seriously affecting the interests of this Colony.\n\nPresent,-Messrs S. Gray, R. C. Antrobus, A. Fletcher, E. Pereira, N. Duus, A. S. Dixson, J. Jardine, Scarth, T. C. Leslie, R. S. Walker, T. L. Walker, P. Volen, W. F. Bevan, L. Wiese, J. D. Gibb, H. T. De Silver, W.

Lawrence.\n\nChinese, Kan Ayeong, Loo Hang Poo, Ho Along Tong Apon, Lo Sam Yuen, Loong Yum, Kwok Acheong, Hung Loong, Wye Akwang, Tam Achoy, Chow Aqui, Tam Aping, Cheong Achu, Loong Achu, Chun-sing, Cheong Afong, Oong Acheong, Ho Asing, Lye Ating.\n\nThe Meeting was opened by the Sheriff, who read the requisition which had induced him to convene it.\n\nUpon the motion of A. Fletcher, Esq., seconded by T. C. Leslie, Esq., the chair was taken by G. Lyall, Esq. Mr Lawrence acting as Secretary.\n\nThe object of the meeting having been stated by the chairman,\n\nJ. JARDINE, Esq., proposed, and SCARTH, Esq., seconded, the following resolution, which having been duly interpreted to the Chinese present by Mr Caldwell, was carried unanimously,—\n\nThat this meeting, convened for the consideration of matters seriously affecting the Public Interests of the British, Foreign, and Chinese sections of this community, views with alarm the tendencies of some of the recent legislative enactments in this Colony, especially that of Ordinance No. 8 of 1856, entitled An Ordinance for Buildings and Nuisances, whereby it finds that the Stipendiary Magistrates and the Justices of the Peace are invested with a jurisdiction, in some respects almost unlimited in extent, over household property and titles to land: \"That the asserted retrospective action of the Ordinance, by which are brought within its scope, not merely all houses and buildings commenced after its date, but also all such as, having been commenced before that period, were then unfinished, and even any house, commenced and finished no matter how long a time previous to that date, but upon which it may afterwards be found necessary to execute any alteration or even repairs, is highly unjust in principle, has implanted in the minds of the Chinese population feelings of insecurity with respect to tenure of property, and is inevitably calculated (as to our knowledge has already been the case) to greatly depreciate the value of such property in this Colony.\n\nThat in the opinion of this meeting, not only are the duties imposed upon the Surveyor General's Office by the Ordinance in question so numerous and minute as to render it impossible, with the present insufficient staff in that department, to carry out the Law according to the requirements of that Ordinance without serious delay and consequent loss to the public, but that an amount of absolute discretion and control as to the disposal of materials of nuisances and of buildings contravening the terms of the Ordinance under section 17 No. 8, increased and fortified by section 10 of No. 12, of 1856, is placed in the hands of and has been exercised by the Surveyor General, such as is dangerous to the common weal to be placed in the unfettered power of any one officer of the Executive.\"\n\nThe following resolution was then proposed by R. C. ANTROBUS, Esq., seconded by E. PEREIRA, Esq., and carried unanimously.\n\nThat this meeting begs respectfully, but in the strongest manner, to protest against the practice established by clause 12 of Ordinance No. 14 of 1856, entitled an Ordinance for Fees and Costs, whereby Costs of Procedure shall be recoverable by or in behalf of the Crown upon every judgment or decree at Law or Equity or in the Admiralty or Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction of the Supreme Court, whereby any Real or Personal Estate or any forfeitures or money penalty shall have been adjudged to belong or awarded to the Crown, and desires to record its opinion that by no portion of this community is litigation with the Crown resorted to, or likely to be so, save and except under circumstances in which such a course is unavoidable; and that consequently it regards such enactment as one of hardship and injustice to this community; while from the consequences which it entails, this meeting regrets that it is no longer able to recognise that dignity of position which is elsewhere customarily assumed under similar circumstances by the Crown.\"\n\nJ. D. GIBB, Esq., then moved, and D. LAPRAIK, Esq., seconded, the following resolution.\n\nThat as this community is in effect almost unrepresented in the Legislative Council, and as in the opinion of this meeting it is most desirable that the Government should be in possession of the views of the community before finally passing any Ordinance, a memorial be addressed to H. E. the Governor in Council, praying that in future every ordinance should be published in Draft at least three months before becoming Law, (as recommended by the Parliamentary Select Committee of 1847 on China Affairs,) except in cases of emergency, and that the meetings of the Legislative Council be made open;\n\nwhich was carried unanimously.\n\nProposed by T. C. LESLIE, Esq., seconded by T. A. LANE, Esq., and carried unanimously,—\n\nThat a Committee composed of the following gentlemen, J. Jardine, Esq., R. C. Antrobus, Esq., D. Lapraik, Esq., E. Pereira, Esq., Geo. Lyall, Esq., W. H. Bowra, Esq., be formed, for the purpose of drawing up a Memorial accompanied by the Minutes of the Meeting, to be laid before H. E. the Governor in Council, praying that he may see fit to amend the Ordinances referred to in accordance with the views expressed by this meeting.\n\nIt was then proposed by G. DUDDELL, Esq., seconded by Jons SCARTH, Esq., and carried unanimously,—\n\nThat a Colonial Committee be appointed by the Rate-payers, and that H. E. the Governor be memorialized to acknowledge the same as a medium of communication between the people and the Government.\n\nMr CALDWELL, at the request of the Chinese present, made a few remarks suggestive of the inefficiency of the Police Force, especially of the Indian portion of that body, and the great want of adequate protection both of their persons and property, which they wished brought before the notice of the Government, in order that the existing abuses may be corrected and it was agreed that the substance of these remarks should be embodied in the minutes of the meeting.\n\nA vote of thanks was passed to the Chair, proposed by R. C. ANTROBUS, Esq., and second by A. FLETCHER, Esq., and the Meeting then adjourned.\n\nF. W. LAWRENCE, Secretary.\n\nGEO. LYALL, Chairman.\n\n(True Copy)\n\nColonial Secretary",

CARVALHO, Secretary\n\nHongkong, 20th January, 1857.\n\nTo the Editor of the \"HONGKONG REGISTER.\"\n\nMACAO, 1st February, 1857.\n\nDEAR SIR—The 10 mandarins, who came from Shang-hae, have been here for a few hours, and having taken their dinner at Cau-qa hong, embarked in the ensuing for Casa Branca, and from there to Yan-san and Cass feathers; and 5 of them bare blue buttons. Two of the mandarins have red buttons and peso sent to Caatho to assist Yeh—and it is said, that two of them were formerly in Canton in the time of the first war with Commissioner Lin.\n\n\"Every thing here is quiet, but I say in the harbour a good many mandarin junks displaying a varying flag. Though people are at this time they cannot do any harm here, I would question, that. What could we do prevent their attacking this place and carrying away the heads of the English that are living here?\n\nI am, &c,\n\nThe Hongkong Register.\n\nHONGKONG, TUESDAY, 3 FEBRUARY, 1857.\n\nNOTICE—The Hours of Posting Wrons in the CENTRAL POST OFFICE, Hollywood Road, are on the Subirth at 11 am, and stand on the Evening of every Wednesday at 7 o'clock.\n\nSIXTY.\n\nWe recorded a pedestrian feat last week —walking to the top of Victoria Peak and back six times in twenty-four hours. The same gentleman did the same task this week in twelve hours, which shows, speaking in all honor and praise, that he is an artful dodger; for the latter feat though apparently more difficult, is in reality easier.\n\nProof—a friend of ours went up and down in fifty-seven minutes.—say one hour at four miles. Four times six's twenty-four; and good steady walking, making the trip equal to twenty-four miles in twelve hours is not very great walking.\n\nTaking all the difficulties into account on an undertaking like this is more easily carried through at one heat than in two, we have no doubt that with, or, from what we hear, without halting, the gentleman who has done the six times could easily do the eight if he set his mind on it.\n\nWe have been trying to persuade our ... C. to put himself in training and try the feat—but he says he has been once to the gap and considers that enough is as good as a feast.\n\nNo. 5. FEBRUARY 3, 1857.\n\nThe climate of London is one thing, and the climate of Hongkong is quite another.\n\na more material matter than that of Hongkong, we must decidedly feel of any corps being sent away from this place.\n\nAn urgent necessity exists for augmenting and making the most effective part of the regular police force here, many of whom do their duty conscientiously to the best of their ability—but the superintendence of London is one thing: and the superintendence in Hongkong is another.\n\nThe screw Steamer Sir James Brooke left this at noon yesterday to Hongkong, having on board three companies of Sepoys, a detachment of European Artillery-men, for service in China, despatched on the requisition at the hands of Hongkong.\n\nThe troops consisted of two companies the 29th M. N. I., the European Artillery-men, Pang, and the Company of the Rifle Company accompanying this force are Major Cheslett, Captain Cazalet, Lieut. Foote, and Passingham of the gun, Capt. Man, Lieut. Forster of the Madras Artillery, Dr. Lloyd, Assistant Surgeon, Apothecary Edwards and Sub-Conductor Ball.\n\nThe Sir James Brooke has been chartered for Twelve thousand dollars.\n\nFrom these and other causes which might be specified Hongkong is not in effect London, and a system which may do very well at the latter place may require important modifications at the former.\n\nWe can never obtain the same raw material for a police here as obtainable in London, but we certainly, both in ordinary and in extraordinary times, such as the present, can make the most of our raw—excessively raw material.\n\nFirst: we would make the men effective by putting them on duty for a four hours beat; and if that could not be done conveniently from the central police station, we would do it from three stations—East, West, and Central.\n\nThe S.S. Auckland brought about 100 tons of shot, shell and ammunition from Pinang last week, which will be sent to China as soon as possible.\n\nBraitonore crew Pressa, Jan. 22.\n\nOn the arrival of the Mail at 6.30 PM of Sunday the 1st February we did, for the convenience of our subscribers, what we have not done before—viz: apply for a pass for two coolies to carry the respective Papers, which will secure early delivery.\n\nTwo passes were granted dated 10th January good for 21 days, the time expiring on the 31st January. Of course the 1st February was beyond the pale of the pass but coming direct from the Superintendent of Police we deemed it all right, thinking that police matters were going on in their usual cuddle.\n\nIn this belief the passes were on the night of the 2nd instant given to two of our Chinese Compositors to take them home, and we were somewhat astonished on being awakened at half past twelve, and informed, that our men were in custody.\n\nWe went down to the police office, and there we found the authorities pondering over the passes, and wondering to see the names of the boys written in red pencil, that being the color of the printing of the new passes.\n\nWe explained that a red pencil is a very common article in a printing office and that the names had been written in with that; then on making ourselves responsible for the lads we saw them let go.\n\nMARRIAGE.\n\nAt Belgrave-square, on the 24th November, the wife of Admiral Sir T. COCHRANE, of a Son.\n\nAt Victoria, Cox, ELIZABETH SANDERS.\n\nMarriage Register xi:10.\n\nON SUNDAY, the 1st instant, the P. & O.

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. Admiral Rudney's figure approached to delicacy med effeminary, and he declared himself very sensible to fen, which he surmounted only by considerations of honour and public duty. Clarradan says, the Duke of Buckingham was so modest and gentle, that some com tiers altempted to put effrouts on him, until they found that this modesty and effeminacy was only a wark for the most terrible determination. And Sir James Perry said, the other day, of Sir Joha Franklin, that, \"If he found Wellington Sound open, he explored it; for he was a man who never turned his back on a danger, yet of that tenderness, that he would not brush away a Mon- quito,\" Even for tusir highway men the same virtues is elclmued, and Robin Hued tomes described to us an altissimus prædimum, the gentlest thief.

Her owner hearing of this in Macao came over to get all the information he could and reported the same to the Police on the 18th, but as he then knew not where his Lorcha was taken to by the Pirates, of course nothing could have been done to recover the same.\n\nHe went back to Macao and arrived there on the 28th where he learned all the particulars of the capture of his Lorcha by ...\n\nsterious circumstances--but perhaps by relating the same it will speak for itself, and bring to light the case of the Lorcha No. 71 above mentioned.\n\nOn the evening of the 27th January the Portuguese ...\n\n1--Par.

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.

        "content_text": "No. 17-APRIL 28, 1857.\n\nThe Hongkong Register.\n\n63\n\n72\n\nword \"abearing.\" but we would have been glad to see the boats that were to take them over nearly numbers of artificial and natural barriers to its free navigation, and an exact survey must also be made of all its creeks. All this will not be done concerning the Glinck Tartars whose villages he visited. The Chairman brought to the notice of the members, that no meeting of the Council had been held for some time; and it was agreed that the regular fortnightly meetings should be resumed.\n\nThe paper contained a sort of summary of some parts of the Coast of Tartary visited by the author in H.M. steamer Barracouta during 1856, and any interesting particulars concerning the Glinck Tartars whose villages he visited. The excuse by party motions in parliament, where the orator hid his face in his cambric pocket handkerchief to hide the tears he does not shed for the woes of the poor Chinese, while he winks at his followers to keep them alive to the capital party game he is playing for power and plunder.\n\nOn this basis we say the ordinance will not and cannot be carried out, at least not without an extra police force. Did any one ever before hear of the chief authorities must clearly understand that they are to act on this understanding, or leave the country, or be prepared for a continual recurrence of similar disturbances to the present.\n\nThe real birds were flown as is even thinner than that of the Russian. A vote of thanks was then passed to Dr. Tronson for his interesting paper, and the meeting adjourned.—China Mail, April 23.\n\nCHINESE POISONS.—We extract from the North-China Herald a paper on Chinese poisons by Dr. MacGowan of Ningpo. Dr. MacGowan does not aim at giving any scientific information on the subject of poisons, and his paper is therefore merely a popular, and we may add amusing essay, which will very likely be read with interest.\n\nThe Hongkong Government Gazette of 28th March 1857 furnishes us with the census of Hong Kong to the 30th December 1855. Taking it simply as we find it, without note or conjecture, it appears there are 69,251 of Chinese of all ages and sex on the island. Of these 45,602 are adult males and 12,001 adult females, with 11,558 male and female children. Of Houses we have 2,257 in Victoria and 972 in the Villages—a total of 3,239 houses, which will give on the average 322 number one, and 2,907 number two spies.\n\nA contemporary says he does not know fear, likely to experience something of a reverse due to the approaching season. Owing to the Chinese rebels to the north, the tea districts were so placed as to lie somewhat out of the way of the transmission of produce direct to Shanghae having been stopped by the advance of the rebels.\n\nMARKETS. Since the departure of the last H.M.S. \"RALEIGH.\" This vessel bearing the flag of Commodore Keppel, while almost in sight of her destination, struck on a sunken rock, and after a run of nearly twenty-five miles was beached on an island in the neighborhood of Macao. We say beached, but we ought rather to say sunk in 12 feet of mud and 3 fathoms water.\n\nORIENTAL BANK CORPORATION.\n\nEXCHANGE.\n\nOn London,—6 months' sight, 4s. 11d. Calcutta—3 days' sight. Rupees 23¼ per $100. Bombay, 8 days' sight, Rupees 23¼ per $100.\n\nCORTIT AND OTHER BILLS.\n\nOn England—58.—6 months' sight.\n\nOn Bombay,—3 days' sight, Rupees 23¼. On Calcutta—3 days' sight, Rupees 23¼.\n\nFoo-Chow. This port which has assumed a great position in the tea trade is, we fear, likely to experience something of a reverse due to the approaching season.\n\nThe poison used by the bandits who kill game with poisoned arrows seems to be something of the same nature, if in fact it is not altogether the same, as the South American poison Wourali.\n\nA contemporary says he does not know what the effect of this high-handed proceeding may be on the Chinese; but we well know that the effect it has on ourselves, i.e., to move us to derisive and contemptuous laughter.\n\nIt seems to be doubtful if she will be saved. The Commodore and men are however available as a \"Naval Brigade,\" and as such may do more service than as the crew of a heavy frigate unable to get up the Canton River.\n\nCORROX. Little business has been done, but sellers are firm. Bombay is quoted:—10.75 a 11.50 and Bengal $9.75 a 10.75.\n\nSHANGHAE. The rates at Shanghae on 20th inst. were: Patna $39 a 345; Malwa $358 × 360.\n\n69,251 spies, always excluding the little children who cannot speak, the numbers of which are not stated in the census. Well then, the first work in the morning is to collect the household spies, to ascertain what each of their neighbors had in the way of victuals, who called on them—what they said when they called—what was said in reply.\n\nThe Kapcheong, the tenth occupier, has done the same, and then he is waited upon by his nine neighbors who empty their buckets of gossip into his, and with that he trudges off to empty it into the general cesspool—the Register General.\n\nBy the time all the buckets are emptied into the general receptacle, the day will be well done—we should think. But then the framers of the ordinance will say, there will be no such need of so many reports; there must be honest men, there are plenty of Kaps. Granted, but will that exonerate the occupiers from a daily inquisition into his own household and into those of his neighbors if he wishes to evade the penalties of the law?\n\nON THE CHINESE SLAVE TRADE TO CUBA.\n\nThis disgraceful traffic has been exciting considerable attention here of late—see correspondence and leaders.\n\nNo one, not even the agents engaged in it, denies the atrocities committed in carrying it out— but what is the love of our neighbors to the love of ourselves? The whole matter is stated when we say, that money, and a great deal of money, is to be made in the trade.\n\nOne sanguine correspondent thinks that if matters are so bad asserted, the British Consul at Havana would take the case up. The British Consul at Havana has to look after his own countrymen, and certainly has no power to interpose with the Spanish Government to punish on behalf of the Chinese coolies after they are landed.\n\nWe trust no one will attempt to make upon it that so one but the most worthless fellow there seems to be a doubt whether more African slaves were lost in the middle passage than Chinese freemen on their passage to Havana.\n\nThere is however the concluding objection, were better off than the free men. When a slave owner buys a slave he becomes part of the wealth of his master, and to be cared for as his master's horses or dogs.\n\nA great part of the funds that had been sent up country for the purchase of teas have been returned to Foo Chow, and it is feared the trouble state the entry will parallel. The Vice-Roy has addressed a letter to M. Parker, U.S. Minister, assuring him that the murderer of Mr. Cunning ham has been strangled for the offence.\n\nThe duties which have been kept back by the 18 Canton authorities were about to be paid up.—Work—China Mail, April 18.\n\nSUPPOSED ATTEMPT AT INCENDIARISM.\n\nLast Saturday about sundown the two policemen on a beat to the West having captured a coolie suspected of incendiarism, left their beat to convey their captive to the station, and in their absence two boats filled with men were seen pulling in towards a very exposed shed of the P. & O. S. N. Co.'s containing coal and patent fuel.\n\nThe boats were fired on and they pulled back, but whether any one in the boats was killed or wounded does not appear. It is very clear to us what they intended to do. If the Compradore is generally a respectable man, we know too well what fearful retribution would eventually overtake him, to be guilty of a useless crime.\n\nOUR SECOND WAR WITH CHINA.\n\nLet the government think of the two opposite politicians the Earl of Derby and Mr. Cobden were honest men, instead of howling out sham grief and weeping crocodile tears over the miseries of the unfortunate Cantonese, they would be laboring to put a stop to this trade which has inflicted and will inflict more misery that even the worst effects of war in China at one blow, if at all, and the disgraceful carried on by us are ever likely to cause.\n\nDAILY REPORT.\n\n(Macau, 26th April, 1857.)\n\nCOTTON—Bengal - $10 a 10½ per picul.\n\nBombay -10¾ @ 11.\n\nMadras\n\nOPIUM—Patna New\n\nWe shall have to read on the 15th instant on the Ghilack Tartars by John M. Tronson Esq. assistant surgeon of H.M. Str. Barracouta.\n\nEna, the supposed murderer of Mr. Markwick, is now safely lodged in gaol for trial.\n\nAt a meeting of the China Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society on Wednesday evening, 15th April.\n\nDr. Harland, Vice President, in the chair. The minutes of the previous Meeting having been read by the Secretary and proposed by the Chairman for approval.\n\nDr. Anstey rose, and proposed that in the sentence commencing with \"The Attorney General continued at some length and in very strong language,\" the words \"in very strong language,\" should be expunged.\n\nThe Attorney General explained that it might be inferred from these words that his language had been needlessly strong. This, he maintained, was not the case, and affirmed that he would have been justified in speaking still more strongly.\n\nThe general opinion of the meeting seemed to be, that the words in question properly characterised Mr. Anstey's language, but that it was not to be inferred from them that this language was stronger than the occasion warranted.\n\nIt was then put to the meeting by the Chairman. \"That the minutes be confirmed as they stand.\" For this resolution were. Drs. Harland, Lorrain, and Chadscoat, and Mr. T. A. Lane.\n\nAgainst it were the Hon. T. C. Anstey, Esq., and the Rev. Alex. Irwin.\n\nThe minutes were accordingly confirmed.\n\nThe Auditors and the Treasurer being absent, the Society's accounts were not presented.\n\nDr. Tronson's paper—\"Some observations on the Ghilack Tartars, their manners, customs, and the regions they inhabit,\"—was then read by the Secretary.\n\nAs soon as reliable information had been obtained, the Tepo, with his confederate the head watchman, and two other Chinese, were summoned to appear before the Magistrate here, to answer some petty charge or other.\n\nThe Tepo, however, proved too cunning, and declined to answer the summons; but one of the two men who had been summoned up along with him as a blind, got into a great fright, and disclosed several important facts.\n\nThe consequence was, that two expeditions were planned. One to Chek-chu on Saturday, to apprehend the Tepo and secure the stolen property; the other to Cowloong on Tuesday, to endeavour to get possession of the mandarin emissaries.\n\nThe arrangements in both instances were exceedingly well laid, and if they did not perfectly succeed, the failure is to be attributed to causes over which those who planned them could have no control.\n\nSee Supplement.",
