TAKU.

This village is situated at the mouth of the Pei-ho, on the southern side of the river, about sixty seven miles from Tientsin. The land is so flat at Taku that it is difficult for a stranger to detect the entrance to the river. There are two anchorages, an outer and inner. The former extends from the Customs Junks to three miles outside the Bar, seaward; the latter from Liang-kia-yuan on the south to the Customs Jetty, Tz'chu-lin, ou the north. The village is a poor one, possessing few shops, no buildings of interest except the forts, and the only foreign residents are the Customs employés, some pilots, and the members of the Vice-Consular establish- ment. A British Vice-Consul is stationed at Takn and receives the papers of all British sailing vessels bound for Tientsin as llas Taku; steamers retain theirs until arrival at Tientsin. A line of telegraph was constructed in the early part of 1879 from Taku to Tientsin by the Provincial Authorities, and is now regularly worked by them.
