From Hamilton's Fast India Gazetteer. an This city stands on the eastern bank of the Pe-kiang river, which flows from the inte- rior in a navigable stream of 300 miles to this town where it is rather broader than the Thames at London bridge, and from lienee falls after an additional course of SO miles in the southern sea of China, near its junc- tion, with which it takes among foreigners the name of Bocca Tigris. The town is sur- rounded by walls about five miles in circum- ference, on which a few cannon are mounted ; but the whole of its fortifications, with a view to defence, are in every respect despicable, and only serve to prevent the intrusion of Europeans. Although Canton is situted nearly in the same parallel of latitude with Calcutta, yet there is a considerable difference in their temperature; the former being much the coolest, and requiring fires during the winter months. The suburbs may be frequented by Europeans; but they are r.ot permitted to enter the gates of the Tarter city, which, however, in its building and exterior ap- pcarencc, entirely resembles the suburbes. The streets of Canton are very narrow, pav- ed with little round «tones, and flagged close to the sides of the houses. The front of every house is a shop, and those of particular streets are laid out for the supply of stran- gers; China-street (named by the seamen Hog-lane) lining appropriated to Europeans, and here the production of almost ever part of the globe are to be found. One of the shopkeepers is always to be seen setting on the counter writing with a camels hair brush, or calculating with Lis swan-pan, on which instrument a Chinese will perform opposi- tions in numbers with as much celerity as the beautiful organ is exposed to many injuries, most expert European arithmetician.

On the present occas­ion, I shall not entertain you with professions which arc rarely the test of merit or the pledge of good conduct, but shall content my­self with assuring you of my cheerful sub­mission to any mode of nomination that may be adopted at the county meeting at the Red Lion, and of my determination to give my utmost support to the candidate tviio may be selected under the authority of that meeting.

CANTON.From Hamilton's Fast India Gazetteer.

an

This city stands on the eastern bank of the Pe-kiang river, which flows from the inte­rior in a navigable stream of 300 miles to this town where it is rather broader than the Thames at London bridge, and from lienee falls after an additional course of SO miles in the southern sea of China, near its junc­tion, with which it takes among foreigners the name of Bocca Tigris. The town is sur­rounded by walls about five miles in circum­ference, on which a few cannon are mounted ; but the whole of its fortifications, with a view to defence, are in every respect despicable, and only serve to prevent the intrusion of Europeans.

Although Canton is situted nearly in the same parallel of latitude with Calcutta, yet there is a considerable difference in their temperature; the former being much the coolest, and requiring fires during the winter months. The suburbs may be frequented by Europeans; but they are r.ot permitted to enter the gates of the Tarter city, which, however, in its building and exterior ap- pcarencc, entirely resembles the suburbes.The streets of Canton are very narrow, pav­ed with little round «tones, and flagged close to the sides of the houses. The front of every house is a shop, and those of particular streets are laid out for the supply of stran­gers; China-street (named by the seamen Hog-lane) lining appropriated to Europeans, and here the production of almost ever part of the globe are to be found. One of the shopkeepers is always to be seen setting on the counter writing with a camel’s hair brush, or calculating with Lis swan-pan, on which instrument a Chinese will perform opposi­tions in numbers with as much celerity as the beautiful organ is exposed to many injuries, most expert European arithmetician.
