There need, however, be no hesitation in believing that the Governor hra mado somo proposals, as, for instance, with regard to the date when the so-called "deus" shall be closed, and it may be that His Excellency bas proposed that the Shanghai exemple should be followed of closing them up in batches; but that the Governor, without firat giving the
