HONG TuE 13ANKRI_PT.
The following are the rules laid down by the English and
Chinese aatkorities at.Shanghae, for winding up the affairs
of the bankrupt Hong:—
" The head of the Esang-Heng, Fang Pin, having run
away and cancealed himself because his affairs are in confu-
siou, the accounts of import and export goods, as well as of
goods shipped on accouht, in which there are numerous de-
falcations, must be brought up to and cut off at the 19th day
of February, .346. All accounts pertaining to periods pre-
vious to that time, honest and faithful Chinese and English
merchants must be appointed to examine minutely and make
up, when measures must be adopted for making a fair and
equitable distribution to viphe up deficiencies.
" As regards the accoults'qf goods shipped on account, the
books of the Esang-Hong must
.be examined and compared,
and the true value in tads., as well as the date at which ad-
vices can reach Shanghae, ascertained.
" And hereafter, whether there lie a surplus or otherwise,
they must be separately arranged..
" As regards debts of merchants to the Esang-Hong, or
debts of the Esang-Hong to merchants, the books of that
Hong must be examined and compared, their amount clearly
made up, and a plain list thereof drawn up to await further
arrangement.
" The import goods now in store in the Esang-Hong are
various in their circumstances, which are severally given
below, so that minute examination may be instituted, and
separate arrangements made with respect to each.
"There are some already given in exchange for produce
already shipped and taken out of the port. There are some
which have been given in exchange for prcduce not yet
shipped or taken out of the port. There are some settled
to be given in exchange Ibr produce not as yet brought
hither by the Chinese trader. There are some, for the
temporary storing of which rent is paid, not as yet given
in exchange for produce, and having no connexion with the
past accounts. '['he export gecels now in store in the Esang-
Hong are various in their circumstances, which are respec-
tively given below, so that n4nte examination May be
instituted, and separate 4ranwnts made with respect to
each.
"There are some which have been clearly settled for with
both the Chinese and the English merchants, and for which
goods have been given in exchange. There are some, the
value and price of which have been definitively settled with
both parties, but for which goods have not bean given in ex-
change. There are some which have been settled for with
the English merchants; but have not ben settled with the
Chinese traders. There are some which have been settled
for with the English merchants, for which goods have been
given in exchange, but which have not yet been settled for
with the Chinese traders. There are some, the price of
which merely has been settled with the English merchants,
for which a contract has been made out, but no goods yet
given in exchange, and which have not yet been settled fi r
with the Chinese traders. There are some stored by Chi-
nese, which have been pledged for English goods. There
are.some for shipping on account, -a part and not all of the
price of which has been received, but which have not gone
out of the port. .

" The Chinese merchants appointed are four:—Want;
ting, Tangho Hong ; Hea Tsoo-wang, Kungman Hong;
Wang Tun-poo, Lunling Hong ; Kwei Shinlah, Eyuen
Hong.

" the English merchants four :—Mr. Gibb, Mr. Mackenzie,
Mr. Beale, Mr. Shaw.

" Examination must first be made by the above merchants,
whether of those temporarily stored by English merchants
in the Esang-Hong there be any which have no connexion
with the accounts; as also whether ,of those goods tempo-
rarily, stored by Chinese merchants in the Esang-Hong there
be any which gave no connexion with the accounts, and a
report sent in, that arrangements may be made accordingly.

"The said merchants -must forth-With examine into and
arrange these matters in meeting together and without delay.
"All the above particulars have been determined upon by
me the Taoutae and the Consul in personal communication
together. I would request that they may be published to all
the merchants, and that directions be given them to send in
all their respective accounts, that arrangement thereupon
mad• be made accordingly.
"Any matters hereafter requiring management will be
further determined upon by us in communication together.
"Determined this 23d day of February."
