History
HMS Jasper was launched on 18 March 1857. It was commissioned on 28 July under Lieut. William Henry Pym and served in the North America and West Indies Station.Шаблон:Sfn Her notable actions included the capture of United StatesШаблон:Sfn slave vessel Emilia (aka Marianna[1]) with Шаблон:HMS off the north coast of Cuba on 22 March 1858. Emilia was towed to Port Royal by Jasper.[2] The capture of a US vessel ignited a diplomatic crisis between Great Britain and the United States, though it was later resolved when Great Britain agreed not to search US vessels.Шаблон:Sfn
On 2 August 1862, Jasper was purchased by Horatio Nelson Lay, Inspector General of the Qing Dynasty Chinese Maritime Customs Service, as part of an effort to bolster the Qing Dynasty naval force in response to the ongoing Taiping Rebellion.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Thereafter she was renamed Amoy (Шаблон:Zh), and became part of the Lay-Osborn Flotilla commanded by Sherard Osborn.Шаблон:Sfn She was put under the command of Lieut. Arthur Salwey,Шаблон:Sfn and sailed for China in April 1863.Шаблон:Sfn Upon her arrival in Tianjin, the Qing government ordered the ship to be renamed as Kuang Wan (Шаблон:Zh).Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
Disagreements between the Qing government and Lay over the command and composition of the Lay-Osborn Flotilla led to its disbandment in 1863, and Amoy was taken to Bombay by Osborn, presumably for sale.
