[Inclosure 2 in No. 64.—Translation.]
Prince Kung to Mr. Avery.
Upon the 29th of May we had the honor to receive a note from your excellency, detailing measures for the protection of strangers, and inclosing translation of certain laws.
They have all had our most careful examination, and evince the excellent purpose and efficient methods of your Government, as also the unaffected goodness and sincerity of your excellency.
We, the prince and ministers, are desirous of expressing to you the most unbounded gratitude.
[Cards of Prince Kung and ministers of the Yamen.]
Peking, June 1, 1875.
