NOTICE.

399

Any persons who have in their possession old Registration Tickets belonging to Servants who have left or have been dismissed, are requested to send the same to this Office, with any remarks, on separate papers, they may wish to have recorded.

It would much tend to the more satisfactory working of the Registration of Domestic Servants, if Registration Tickets were in every case kept completely out of the possession of the Servants themselves. On the dismissal of a Servant his Ticket should be sent to this Office, unless it can be handed at once to his new Employer, and should on no account be confided to his own custody.

Registrar General's Office, Hongkong, 28th May, 1869.

NOTICE.

ALFRED LISTER, Acting Registrar General.

To Consignees, Masters and Others in charge of Merchant Vessels.

II. The Southern line of this Anchorage is the North extremity of Hongkong, shut in with the South extremity of the Kowloon Peninsula, bearing E. by S.; the Top-gallant Masts and Yards are to be on Deck and flying Jib-boom in; a Spare Anchor should be ready for letting go, and the Hawse kept clear. III. Vessels discharging or taking in Cargo, and Hulks and Receiving Ships may, with permis- sion, lie on the South shore.

Note. The Masters of Ships taking advantage of Article III, and those whose Vessels lie alongside Wharves and Jetties are to understand that they do so at their own risk.
