CEBU.
This is an important port and city of the Philippines. It is the capital of the island of Cebu, aud ranks next to Iloilo among the ports of the Philippines. It was at one time the seat of the administration of revenue for the whole of the Bisayas, but this was removed to Manila in 1849. The trade of Cebu consists principally in sugar, hemp, and rice. There are also very valuable and extensive coal deposits in the island of Cebu, but the mines have not as yet been worked with any enterprise. The neighbouring islands of Negros and Bohol possess extensive sugar plantations, a large proportion of the produce of which finds its way to the port of Cebu for shipment.
