1838 (3 Aug) Macao to Aberdeenshire, Scotland per the Ship of “Earl
of Balcarras” for China. From the famous William Leslie
correspondence in which the narratives mentioned “…… Sir Frederick
, Lady Maitland / the Naval Commander out here for the East Indies
/ is here in “HMS Wellesley” 74 (guns) with the “Lavina 18 (guns)”
& “Aegverin 10 (guns)” – which has enlivened the place a good deal.
Sir Frederick was the Captain who took Napoleon in the Bellicophon
in June 1815 and is a splendid specimen of a British Admiral of the
Nelson School. “2/-” is the unpaid rate charged from Macao to
Dover, England, and “ ½ ” is the local charge when arrived at
Aberdeenshire, Scotland. This is a forerunner of First Opium War,
in which the letter provides a detailed account of British naval
and civilian people to flee to Macao, China. All the senior
military officers mentioned in this letter were the key commanders
to take lead and involve in many battles during the First Opium
War. Sir Frederick Maitland was the Rear-Admiral commander of the
East Indies and China Station, and died in November 1839. A very
good First Opium War letter, full of characters.
1838年8月3日，澳門經「Earl of Balcarras」號船寄往蘇格蘭亞伯丁郡 此信出自著名的William Leslie通信集，內容提及：「……東印度艦隊司令弗雷德里克·梅特蘭爵士及其夫人現駐澳門，座艦為74門炮的『HMS Wellesley』，另有18門炮的『Lavina』與10門炮的『Aegverin』，為此地增添不少生氣。弗雷德里克爵士曾於1815年6月指揮『Bellicophon』號俘虜拿破崙，乃納爾遜風範的英國海軍上將典範……」 郵資標註「2/-」為澳門至英格蘭多佛的未付費率，「½」為信件抵達蘇格蘭亞伯丁郡後的本地費用。此信為鴉片戰爭前兆，詳述英國軍民撤至澳門的經過，信中提及的高級軍官皆為戰爭期間的關鍵指揮官。弗雷德里克·梅特蘭爵士時任東印度及中國站海軍少將，於1839年11月逝世。此信內容豐富，極具歷史價值。

1840 (19 Mar) Macao to Chichester, England, J. Silverlock
correspondence The letter referred to the British military
reinforcement during the first few months in 1840 right after the
First Battle of Chuenpi in Nov 1839. The letter content stated: “…
we are still quietly residing at this place (Macao), and apparently
shall continue free from Chinese annoyance till the existing
difficulties are settled. By an opium clipper from Calcutta, we
have news from England to the 4th November, but no letters for us,
ours having unfortunately been sent via Bombay – it appears the
Governor General of India is entirely engaged in making
preparations for dispatching a force to China. It is to consist of
three Steamers, and some men of war from the Indian station, also a
military force is now held in readiness at Calcutta for immediate
service. There are all to arrive here in May and we are also told
by some parties that three ships of the line with their attendant
frigates, etc were to be dispatched from England to meet the Indian
force in the China seas.” Subsequent to the above, the British
forces then formally launched strike to the North of the China
after mobilizing its military base in India and Australia completed
in May-June 1840. A good letter to have an account of the state of
military affairs in early 1840. Ex Perical David Collection
1840年3月19日澳門寄英國奇切斯特，J. Silverlock通信，英軍增援動態之記載 此信記述第一次穿鼻海戰（1839年11月）後數月間英軍調兵動向，內容如下： 「……我等現仍安然居留澳門（Macao），中方似暫未滋擾，料此局面將延續至爭端解決。頃接加爾各答鴉片快船來訊，得聞英國本土截至11月4日之消息，然我等信件因誤經孟買轉遞而未能收訖——據悉，印度總督正全力籌備遣軍來華事宜。此批部隊擬包括三艘蒸汽艦、印度駐地數艘戰艦，以及加爾各答整裝待發之陸軍，預計五月悉數抵華。另有消息稱，英國本土將遣三艘戰列艦及隨行護衛艦等，赴中國海域與印度部隊會師。」此後，英軍於1840年5月至6月間完成自印度及澳洲之軍事調動，旋即正式揮師北犯中國。 此信詳實記錄英軍自印度、澳洲調兵之戰前準備。 [拍賣品來源：珀西瓦爾·大維德爵士珍藏]
1842 (23 Oct) A Good Historic Dispatch from Hong Kong to Ireland ...di più
1842 (23 Oct) A Good Historic Dispatch from Hong Kong to Ireland On
Board H.M.S. Agincourt: Witness to the Aftermath of the Treaty of
Nanking Penned by Captain Henry Bruce aboard H.M.S. Agincourt,
anchored in the newly acquired British colony of Hong Kong, this
remarkable letter offers a firsthand account of the final chapters
of the First Opium War (1839–1842)—a conflict that reshaped
Sino-British relations and cemented Hong Kong’s fate as a Crown
Colony. A Commander’s Perspective: Captain Bruce was no ordinary
officer—he commanded one of the two flagship vessels present in
Hong Kong during the historic signing of the Treaty of Nanking (29
August 1842), which formally ended the war. His letter, written
just two months later, captures the immediate postwar transition:
the withdrawal of British forces, the logistical challenges of
occupation, and the human toll of tropical disease on European
troops. Postal Significance: A Rare Wartime Ship Letter • This
dispatch was not sent via official naval channels but entrusted to
a private vessel, later entering the British postal system at
Devonport. Its markings tell a story. • A striking red “DEVONPORT /
SHIP LETTER” handstamp, confirming its maritime routing. A
manuscript “8(p)” rate mark, indicating an unpaid ½-oz letter (8
pence due upon delivery)—unusual for military correspondence, which
typically enjoyed franking privileges. This suggests either urgency
or an informal dispatch method. A Glimpse into the Post-War Exodus;
Bruce’s words paint a vivid picture of the British withdrawal: “We
have now been here rather more than a month… The (HMS) Modeste
arrived yesterday from Sir William Parker at Chusan and goes home…
Sir Henry Pottinger [Hong Kong’s first Governor] wishes to return
but awaits Whitehall’s permission… The (HMS) Blenheim departs for
England soon. Our crews are dreadfully sickly—the men suffer but do
not die; the soldiers fare worse, perishing in great numbers. The
troopship Belleisle arrives shortly with Lord Saltoun and the 26th
& 98th Regiments…” A Lucrative Final Duty for Captain H. Bruce In a
telling postscript to the war, Bruce reveals his unexpected role:
escorting 5 million silver dollars (the first installment of
China’s $21 million indemnity under the Treaty) back to England—and
receiving a percentage for his troubles. A stark reminder of how
Britain’s victory was as much economic as it was military. Why This
Letter Matters” • Rarity: Few wartime letters from high-ranking
officers detail the Treaty’s immediate aftermath. • Postal
Hybridity: Its mix of private carriage and postal processing
reflects the ad-hoc systems of early colonial Hong Kong. • Human
Cost: Bruce’s notes on disease underscore why the British later
dubbed Hong Kong the “white man’s grave.” • A relic of empire, this
dispatch bridges naval history, postal evolution, and the grim
realities of colonial expansion.
1842年10月23日——一封從香港寄往愛爾蘭的重要歷史信函 阿金庫爾號戰艦上的見證：南京條約簽訂後的餘波 這封非凡的信件由亨利·布魯斯艦長在停泊於新獲得的英國殖民地香港的皇家戰艦「阿金庫爾號」上撰寫，提供了第一次鴉片戰爭（1839-1842年）最後階段的第一手記述——這場戰爭重塑了中英關係，並奠定了香港作為英國殖民地的命運。 指揮官布魯斯艦長絕非普通軍官——在1842年8月29日標誌性的《南京條約》簽署期間，他指揮了駐香港的兩艘旗艦之一，該條約正式結束了這場戰爭。他在兩個月後寫下的這封信，捕捉了戰後的過渡時期：英國軍隊的撤離、佔領期間的後勤挑戰，以及熱帶疾病對歐洲軍隊造成的人員損失。 郵政意義：一封罕見的戰時船郵信函 • 這封信件並非通過官方海軍渠道寄送，而是委託給私人船隻，後來在德文波特進入英國郵政系統。其郵戳標記訴說著一個故事。 • 紅色「DEVONPORT / SHIP LETTER」手蓋郵戳，證實了其海上郵路。手寫的「8(p)」郵資標記，表明這是一封未付費的半盎司信件（需支付8便士郵資）——這在通常享有免郵特權的軍事通信中實屬罕見，暗示了寄件的緊迫性或非正式性。 戰後撤離的縮影：布魯斯的生動描述 「我們在此駐紮已逾月餘...（HMS）謙遜號昨日載著駐舟山的威廉·帕克爵士抵達並將返英...香港首任總督璞鼎查爵士渴望回國，但仍在等待白廳的許可...（HMS）布倫海姆號即將啟程返回英國。我們的船員健康狀況極差——士兵們飽受折磨但尚能倖存；陸軍士兵的情況更糟，死亡人數眾多。運兵船貝萊島號即將載著索爾頓勳爵及第26和第98步兵團抵達...」 布魯斯艦長的額外任務 在這場戰爭的尾聲，布魯斯透露了他意外獲得的任務：護送500萬銀元（根據條約中國賠款2,100萬美元的首期款項）返回英國——並因此獲得一定比例的酬勞。這鮮明地提醒著人們，英國的勝利不僅是軍事上的，更是經濟上的。 這封信件為何重要： • 稀有性：鮮有高級軍官的戰時信件能如此詳細地記錄條約簽訂後的直接影響。 • 郵政混合性：其私人運送與郵政處理的結合，反映了早期殖民時期香港的臨時郵政系統。 • 人力代價：布魯斯關於疾病的記錄，解釋了為何香港後來被英國人稱為「白人的墳墓」。 • 作為帝國時代的遺物，這封信件串聯了海軍歷史、郵政演變和殖民擴張的嚴酷現實。

November 1840, an important First Opium War printed circular
regarding the change of Plenipotentiary to China Dated 2nd December
1840 in Macao, this printed circular was sent to London and at the
back flap with forwarder agent double-oval mark of “WHITE BARDAS &
CO. BOMBAY, 19 Jan 1841”. This letter, in its 7th paragraph, has
stated that Admiral George Elliot was relieved of his command and
sent back to England due to his heart illness. Admiral George
Elliot was then replaced by captain Charles Elliot to succeed him
as Plenipotentiary, but captain Elliot was indeed not appreciated
for being able to closely follow the directives of Lord Melbourne,
the Premier of England. In several months later, Charles Elliot was
eventually replaced in 1841 by Sir Henry Pottinger, who became the
first governor in Hong Kong. The paragraph mentioned: “On the 29th
November, Admiral Elliot resigned his command on the plea of bad
health; he has been laboring under palpitation of the heart for
months, and allowed all the negotiations with the Chinese to be
solely conducted by captain Charles Elliot, who succeeds him as
Plenipotentiary, thus virtually doing what Lord Melbourne, the
premier of England said in his place in the House of Lords, should
not be done, namely, captain Elliot placed in the direction of the
expedition. The result all can read as they run – a monsoon lost; 6
months wasted; vast expense incurred; 500 gallant soldiers buried,
and the settlement not advanced one step! Not even a promise
offered by our cautious enemies, many of whom know well how to
baffle captain Elliot. Sir Gordon Bremer succeeds to the command of
the expedition, but whether his is Plenipotentiary here or not not,
we are left in ignorance. And then the printed circular also
recorded a printed letter by George Elliot replied on the HMS
Melville to the correspondence of a group of trade union: “In
answer to your letter of yesterday, I regret to say, I can only
give you an answer to one of your queries, namely, with regard to
the truce agreed to at Chusan. It was entered into with the
governor-general of that province, and does not extend further. I
am perfectly aware, gentlemen, of the state of anxiety the
mercantile interests must be in, to know what is likely to take
place; and shall take care to give the arliest intimation in my
power of anything bearing on such interest, but at present I am
myself ignorant of the intentions of the Chinese government, and
can therefore only express my hope that your suspense will now be
of short duration (Signed) GEORGE ELLIOT / Rear Admiral, and
Commander-in-Chief”

1840 (29 Jul) Macao Letter sent to Yorkshire, England during the
beginning of the First Opium War. Boxed handstamp of “INDIA LETTER
/ SOUTHAMPTON”, carried by vessel Mor., with rate mark of “8”
charged 8p to the recipient. The letter mentioned the trade of tea
including the export of 29 chests Congo (per ship Harburger) and
14.5 chests TwanKay (per ship Earl Balcarras). Despite some
interruptions and trade barriers occurred over the height time of
the First Opium War period, the trade and export actually continued
at the time. Congo was obviously more expensive than TwanKay. Congo
was an anglicized version of the Chinese工夫茶 (gōngfu chá). TwanKay
was a type of green tea, which the name is derived from a
transliteration of Tunxi (屯溪), a tea-trading town in Anhui
province. 8p was a standard rate charged to ship letters from both
India and China, and the rate was changed from Jan 1840. Therefore,
it explained even the letter sent from Macao, China, it carried an
INDIA Ship Letter handstamp.

1840年7月29日澳門寄往英國約克郡信函，加蓋”INDIA LETTER / SOUTHAMPTON”方框戳，經”Mor.”號船運送，收件人支付8便士郵資。內容提及戰爭期間持續的茶葉貿易：29箱工夫茶（“Harburger”號承運）與14.5箱屯溪綠茶（“Earl Balcarras”號承運）。按1840年新郵政費率，中印船郵統一收取8便士，故雖從澳門寄出仍加蓋印度船郵戳記。
