ANGOUMO'IS, late a province of France, now inclu¬ 
ded in the department of Charente. It is hilly, but fer¬ 
tile, has good iron-mines, and excellent paper manufac¬ 
tories. 
ANGOU'R A, or Ang o'r a, anciently Ancy'ra, a town 
of Natolia, in Aliatic Turkey, remarkable for its remains 
of antiquity, as infcriptions, pillars, ruins of temples, &c. 
of porphyry and old marble. The caftle, which is as large 
as a final! town, and well inhabited, both by the Chrifiians 
and Turks, i-s built of white marble, and fione refembling 
porphyry, and, throughout the walls of the town, which 
are low, and thofe of the houfes, which are generally built 
of unburnt brick, antique fragments are interfperfed. The 
city of Angora is computed to have 100,000 inhabitants in 
it, 90,000 of whom are Turks ; and about 1000 of thefe 
are janizaries. Greeks, Armenians, Sec. compofe the re¬ 
maining 10,000. The country produces very good red 
wine, and they have excellent rice on lb me of the rivers. 
They have the fined: breed of goats here in the world; 
their hair or wool is quite white, and almodas fine as f 1 lie ; 
a great trade is carried on in this article, and the fined 
fluffs, efpeciallv camblets, are made of it. The exports 
of Angora to Holland, France, and England, are about 1600 
camel-loads yearly'. It is 212 miles fouth-eaft of Conflan- 
tinope. Lat. 39.30. N. Ion. 32. 5. E. 
ANGO'Y, a kingdom of Loango in Africa, bounded 
on the north by Cacongo, and on the fouth by Congo; 
from the former of which it is feparated by the river Ca¬ 
binda, and from the latter by the river Zaire. The coun¬ 
try is full of woods and thickets ; and has no towns of any 
note, except one called Bomangoy, fituated on the north 
banks of the Zaire, and not far from its mouth. Its chief 
port is Cabinda, called alfo Kabcnda, or Cubmda , fituated 
on ihe mouth of a river of the fame name, about five 
leagues north of cape Palmerino, on the north fide of the 
Zaire’s mouth. The bay is very commodious for trade, 
or wooding and watering along the fiiore. It is flat and 
marlhy in forne places ; but afeends gradually about three 
miles inland, and then forms itfelf into a ridge of hills. 
The town (lands on the round point of the bay looking to 
the we Award ; and the Englifh have a factory on the fouth- 
weft of the road. The country round the bay is moftly 
barren ; owing chiefly to th.e indolence of the inhabitants, 
which often occafions a fcarcity of provifions. The wild 
beafts fwarm in the woods, and deftroy all the tame kinds; 
lo that there are no cattle bred here but hogs. The coafls 
abound fo much with oifters, that the failors quickly load 
their boats with them. The natives follow the occupation 
of fifiling more than any other. The drefs of tire inhabi¬ 
tants is the fame with that of the Congoefe. They allow 
polygamy, and the bell beloved wife hath the command 
of the reft; but is no lefs liable to be turned out, if fhe 
proves unfaithful. 
AN'GRA, a city of Tercera, one of the Azores ; the 
capital, not only of that ifland, but of all the reft, and 
the refidence of the governor. It is feated on the fouth fide, 
near the middle of the longeft diameter of the ifland, on 
the edge of the lea. The harbour is the beft in the whole 
ifiand, being equally fecured againft florins and the efforts 
of an enemy. It is of tire form of a crefcent; the extre¬ 
mities of which are defended by two high rocks, that run 
lo far into the fea as to render the entrance narrow, and 
eafily covered by the batteries on each fide. From this 
harbour the tow n is faid to derive its name, the word An- 
gra flguifyingw creek, bay, or ftation, for (hipping ; and 
this is the only convenient one among all the Azores. 
The town is well built and populous, is the fee of abi- 
fhop, under the jurifdiclion of the archbifhop of Litbon. 
It hath five pari (lies, a cathedra], four monafteries, as ma¬ 
ny nunneries, befides an inquifition and bifhop’s court, 
which extends its jurifdibtion over all the Azores, Flores, 
and Coryo. It is furrounded by a good wall, a dry ditch 
of great depth and breadth, and defended by a ftrong caf¬ 
tle, rendered famous by the imprifonment of- king Al- 
phonfo by Ills brother Peter in 166S. At.Angra are kept 
ANG 
magazines for anchors, cables, fails, and other .(lores, for 
the royal navy, or occafionally for merchantmen in dilirefs. 
All maritime affairs are under the infpedtion of an officer 
called djimbergrador, who hath lubordinate officers and 
pilots for conducting (hips into th.e harbour, or to proper 
watering-places'. The Englifh, French, and Dutch, have 
each a conful redding here, though the commerce of any 
of thefe nations with the Azores is very inconlidernble.

ANGRIVA'RII, anciently a people of Germany, fitu¬ 
ated between the Wefer and the Ems, and eaitward reach¬ 
ing beyond the Wefer, as far as the Cherufci, on which 
fide they railed a rampart; to the fouth, having the Tu- 
bantes on the Ems, and on the Wefer where n bends to 
the foreft Bacemis; to the weft, the Ems and the confines 
of the Brudteri; and, to the north, the territory, pf the 
Angrivarii lay between the Chamavi and Anlibarii. Pto¬ 
lemy places them between the Cauchi and Suevi or Catti.

to the fouth, the greateft part of the biihopric of Ofnabrug, 
the north part of the county of Teclenburg, and a part of 
the county of Ravenfberg. A trace of the name of the 
people dill remains in the appellation Engern; a finall town 
in the county of Ravenfberg. 
ANGROG'NE, or Angrog'na, a mountainous, yet 
fruitful, community, parifli, or townfhip, of Piedmont, 
through w'hich runs a little river of the fame name. It is 
accellible only at two places /rom the fouth and eaft, and 
there are retreats among the rocks, where, during the mod 
violent perfections againft the poor Vaudois, their old 
baite (bards), as they are called, or valley-minifters, preach¬ 
ed without interruption. Sometimes the valleys of Pied¬ 
mont are called by the name of Angrogne. The town of 
Angrogna is feven miles weft of Pignerol. Lat. 45. o. N.

AN'GRY, ad). Touched with anger; provoked.—Oh 
let not the Lord be angry , and I will (peak : peradventure 
there (hall be thirty found there. Gen. xviii. 30. — It feems 
properly to require, when the objeift of anger is mention¬ 
ed, the particle at before a thing, and with before a per- 
fon ; but this is not always obferved.—Now, therefore, be 
not grieved, nor angry with yourfelves, that ye (old me 
hither: for God did fend me before you to preferve life. 
Gen. xlv. 3.—1 think itavaft pleafure, that, whenever two 
people of merit regard one another, fo many fcoundrels 
envy and are angry at them. Swift .—Having the appear¬ 
ance of anger ; having the effeft of anger.—The north 
wind driveth away rain : fo doth an angry countenance a 
backbiting tongue. Prov. xxv. 23.—In chirurgery, pain¬

nied by the thinner parts of the blood, grows red and an¬

thers into a hard fwelling, and, in a few days, ripens into 
matter, and (o difehargeth. Wxfcman. 
AN'GUED, a province of Algiers, or rather a defert 
of Tremecen. Hords or clans of Arabs, and others, live 
here moftly on plunder, obliging travellers to pay them 
money for their paftports, which are a kind of fmall flag 
at the end of a lance. They have but little corn, and they 
feed principally on dates, milk, and what wild game they 
kill. They all ramble or range about the country, with¬ 
out acknowledging any but their own chief, or paying any 
tribute to the Algerines. 
ANGUIL'LA, one of the Weft-India or Carribbee 
iflands, lying in about 15 0 N. lat. It has its name from its 
fnake-like form; and is about ten leagues in length and 
three in breadth. It was firft difeovered by the Englifh in 
1650, when it was filled with alligators and other noxious 
animals ; but they, finding the foil fruitful, and proper 
for railing tobacco and corn, fettled a colony on it, and 
imported live cattle, which have fince multiplied exceed¬ 
ingly. But, the colony not being fettled under any public 
encouragement,
