We have thus given in outline none of the more prominent portions of the chapter "devoted to Canton, as a specimen of the whole volume. Other chapters treating of Madaby Formous, Ningpo, Shanghas, and the remainder of the treaty posts, we can only numerate. The pages describing Poking, the capital, are so interesting, and contain so much that is new to European readers respecting its history, public buil dings, and general characteristics, that we would fain tannster them to our columns. complete and intelligible plan of the Im- perial City Bud neighbourhood, gives us an accurate notion of the relative position of ita divisions, groete, and places.
