Excerpt from Review of the Management of Our Affairs in China: Since the Opening of the Trade in 1834; With an Analysis of the Government Despatches From the Assumption of Office by Capt. Elliot, on the 14th December, 1836, to the 22nd of March, 1839 Without any apparent inconvenience or cause for doubt, and that too against a great nation, China, a few years ago, was the locality for it. A vulgar adage was never more applicable than at this moment to express a meaning. The tearing and rending, and botching and patching, that has been going on for some years, bring it to mind. Let the parties whom it concerns ruminate upon the pithy conclusion that a stitch in time saves nine, and look at the arrears of work that their negligence has left on their shop-board.

In fact it is at this moment clean gone out of our hands. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
