WEDNESDAY, 18th December, 1872 Mr. Stansfeld received, at Gwydyr House, a deparation from numerous Four-lay Bourds. who reiterated the well-worn.complaint about the separate education of Roman tholi pa per children. The right bon. gentleman pointed out in his reply that the preeunt erstem, on the whole, gave satisfaction; that the Local Government Board had never had to exercise Em my shjet that I had an opportunity of its compulsory power for the protection of defending myself in open Conrt. But I really those children; and that, without some such had it. The summous took ma by surprise provision: ns that of the existing law, they one evening. I went to the Court next lora-world in certain cases be exposɔd to unfair nươu, but with an easy mind; for, with the treatment in the uniter of eḍuontion. jangmret of the Hongkong Court before mej and the subsequent investigation of the Board of Trade, I felt sure I had nothing to fear AndCatlany Jane Tthought that if the Police Magistrate, owing to my inability to put the fers properly before bim, should decide against me, I could appeal to the Chief. Judgo and call, in the a-istance of Counsel. But to my sur prise, I found the Chief Judge himself on the bench; the Board of Trade ignored, and the judg; nient at the Hongkong Magistrate treated as an aggravation of the case against me. All this so upert me that I became confused, and failed to Rate the facts of the cusawith the fullum necos. sary to sight understanding of it, so far as my sation in it was concerned. And the case bar inj been hound and dreidel, there and then by the "Oblaf Judge, no other spportunity wue afforded que of more clearly explaining my cous duet in the quiter. ****
I have been engaged in the Chinn trade no for a grel puoý pears, and must be kuuwa, by mtleist, to any residence in Shanghai and at offer porte; and Tam, therefore, adwil- Hug to lie oder the inisconceptions to which the case it appeared in Court expuses me.
