TAMSUI AND KEELUNG

The port of Tamsui lies in lat. 25 deg. 10 min. N., and long. 101 deg. 26 min. E., on the north-western side of the fertile island of Formosa. The harbour, like all others in Formosa, has a troublesome bar, which has greatly retarded the growth of the port and has necessitated the transfer to Keelung of the steamship agencies that formerly made it their headquarters. Now, none but vessels of small size trade there. The town called Hobé, is situated on the north side of the river, about two miles from the bar. In October, 1884, the French ships under Admiral Courbet bombarded Tam- sui, but were unable to take the place. The Japanese took possession on the 7th June,

1895.
