Observations on our Chinese Commerce; including remarks on the proposed reduction of the tea duties, our new settlement at Hong-Kong, and the opium trade | 1850

OBSERVATIONS

ON OUR

CHINESE COMMERCE ;

INCLUDING

REMARKS

ON

THE PROPOSED REDUCTION OF THE TEA DUTIES,

OUR NEW SETTLEMENT AT HONG KONG,

AND THE OPIUM TRADE .

 NOTICE .

THESE Observations were written to illus

trate the Miscellaneous Notices on China

published in 1822, and intended to be bound

up with the remaining copies of that work ;

but as the first edition and part of the second

are already in the hands of the Public, this

separate publication has been issued for the

convenience of the possessors of the original

work.

LONDON, Jan. 1 , 1850.

 OBSERVATIONS ,

ETC.

Propose to trace the progress of events in China since

the original publication of this work . – State of the Trade

under the East India Company .-- Trade thrown open in

1833.-War commenced with China in 1839.-Peace re

stored in 1842, and its consequences .--Appointment in

1847 of a Parliamentary Committee of Enquiry.-- Its Con

stitution, Labours, and Recommendations. — Advantages

that may be expected to result from a reduction of the Tea

Duties.- Parliamentary Debate on the opening of the Trade

in 1833.-- Omission of precautionary Measures in China,

and consequent melancholy fate of Lord Napier. - Regrets

universally expressed at this omission when the China

War was subsequently discussed in Parliament in 1840.

Character of the policy recommended in our intercourse

with the Chinese, illustrated by a reference to Lord Am

herst's Mission to Pekin in 1816.-Condition and Pros

pects of our New Settlement at Hong- Kong.-Character

and Consequences of the Opium Trade.-- Recent enlarged

cultivation of the Tea Plant in India.-- Encouragements

held out since the Peace with China, for the diffusion of

Christianity in that country .

This little work , having been originally pub

lished in 1822, and a considerable portion of it

written in 1813, it may not prove uninteresting

at the present period ( 1850), to point out the

connection between the circumstances here

recorded , and the events that have since

occurred .

 

STATEMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS REGARDING HONG KONG. ADDRESSED TO THE HON. FRANCIS SCOTT, M.P. | 1850

REGARDING

HONG KONG.

ADDRESSED TO

THE HON. FRANCIS SCOTT, M.P.

London :

PRINTED BY BLADES AND EAST, ABCHURCH LANE ,

 PREFACE .

The contents of the following pages have been supplied by

gentlemen who are, and who have all long been, residents

in Hong Kong, and from their positionfully competent to

judge of the condition and requirements of the Colony.

Some objection may possibly be raised in consequence of no

names being given ; they have been withheld for reasons

obvious to all who have ever resided in a small community

circumstanced as is Hong Kong.

For the satisfaction of anyperson interested in this subject,

the letters may be inspected on application to the Printers.

The publication of these " Statements "" appears particu

larly opportune at this moment, when Financial and Colonial

questions are so closely interwoven, and deservedly attract

so large a share of public attention.
