The British Consul's Manual: Being a Practical Guide for Consuls, As Well As for the Merchant, Shipowner, and Master Mariner, in All Their Consular Transactions (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The British Consul's Manual: Being a Practical Guide for Consuls, as Well as for the Merchant, Shipowner, and Master Mariner, in All Their Consular Transactions

While I am averse to indulge in a political essay upon what I may (however reverentially) conceive to be erroneous on the part of those in authority, in adopting the best mode of securing the most honourable and effective discharge of the important duties which devolve upon persons to whom the execution of that part of the public service is confided, I cannot refrain from directing atten tive consideration to the necessity of a wise selection of persons to fill the position of Consul.
