SUNGEI UJONG.

This state, which is under British protection, is situated to the north-west of Malacca. Its area is roughly estimated at 500 square miles, and a range of hills to the north attain a height of about 3,800 feet, the slopes of which have been pro- nounced by Ceylon planters as most suitable for the cultivation of coffee, cocoa,*&c. On the lower ground, nearer the coast, tapioca is successfully cultivated. Tin min ing is carried on to some extent. The population is estimated at 10,000 Chinese and 4,000 Malays, &c. The British Resident is the virtual ruler of the state. Trade is steadily progressing. -
