Rima does not lia far from Batang, a con siderable emporium of trade and the least knows and most accssible gateway az entrance to Tibet proper from China. Through this trade emporium all, the tea, "Calicoes, bread cloths; and other goods pass through into Tibet. Further east from Batang there is the woll. known caravan route via Ta-sian and onwards to Chaoglu, the capital of Sacchwan, province in Chloa estimated-by several authorities to contain a population of seventy millions.
It is interesting to consider by what route the peoplo in there regiops now receive foreign goods, such as calicoes and woollen cloths. The only routs at present is vio Shanghai, and thence up the Yangten Kiang river, só well described by the Ixto Mr.. Archibald Little-a | long and arduous journey of 1,500 miles up the | river to Chungklog, the entrance to Szechwan' near which there are many dangerous rapida and rocks.
