2^i6 Wtf H BOAT AND GUN IN THE YANGTZE VALLEV. 



Chinkiang, viz., 780 // against the table distance of 805 //, shows that the slightest modifica- 

 tion, a little give on the one side l/^% and a little take on the other l/^%, would result in a 

 difference so fractional as to render inert any cavil. 



It can now be but a matter of time when these tables will have to be further added 

 to, for increasing steam launch service and the railway must necessarily lead to the 

 discovery of fresh shooting districts out of the common tracks. 



THE DISTANCES ARE GIVEN IN CHINESE LI (S). 



I English Mile = 2.78 Chinese //. 



I Chinese // =0.3597 English Miles.
