SUNGEI UJONG.

This state, which is under British protection, is situated to the north-west to Malacca. Its area is roughly estimated at 500 square miles, and a range of hills in the north attain a height of about 3,800 feet, the slopes of which have been pro- nounced by Ceylon plauters 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 a considerable extent. The population is estimated at about 30,000, of which Chinese form a large proportion. The British Resident is the virtual ruler of the state. The revenue for 1887 was $141,502, as against $120,740 in 1886. Trade is steadily progressing; its value in 1887 was-imports $899,414, and exports $1,056,760.
