Mr. Sharp, Crown Solicitor, said the Attorney We do not hold ourselves responsibly for the opintos M. Gedorul (who was not pressat) had asked him to any that he desired to cutar a nolle prosegui in this one.
lis Lordabip, addressing the aconsed, anid→ The Attorusy-General kas devided not to pros ceed on the information against you; and having looked over the depositiena, I quite agros with sim that it wealt be azelan to expect a jury to convint you. Waerelmann and Hirst have both stated that what they said before was entirely false, and that it was you who induced them to make the obarges against Captain Brown. Who ther you did or did oct, I don't think any jars soulf give credense to the statements of the other two after they nes admitted themselves to have been guilty of perjury. If what they say is true, which I don't say for a moment's the case, then it was a most areal thing on your part to tramp up any charge of such a putaro is was alleged against Capiain Brown. If, on the other hand, they told you the same story as they told the Magistrate, and you believnt it, I think you were quite justified in having the matter engaired into. At the same time, I must say that the story of the other two prisoners was in the highest degree impachable, and that your might have exercised more discretion, supposing you believed them, and sanght soma further proofs. You are discharged.

As contrasted with a university at collegiate dazzl oulan, the coarsa of instruation at an English Board School may fairly be described us alemen. tary, and the speelal question before the Com mission was a proposal to practically abolish the Central School, substituting for it à Collegi ato Institution. I do not think it cat woll be disputed-
Tet. That the coarse of instration provided. in English Board Schools is suficiently advanced to test the ordinary requirements of the Chinese population of this island.

That the character of the education gives of the Contrat dohnal, omitting dead lar googos, approximates to that of an English Board Sahool thaagh modified to suit the special needs of Chinese boys to use your own words, it is intended to give a sound education in, which the English language and Western soienon shall occupy a prominent position."
