The KAAN'S FLEET leaving the Port of ZAYTON. The scenery is
taken from an engraving in _Fisher's China_, purporting to represent
the mouth of the Chinchew River (or River of Tswan-chau), after a
sketch by Capt. (now Adm.) Stoddart. But the Rev. Dr. Douglas,
having pointed out that this cut really supported his view of the identity
of Zayton, being a view of the _Chang-chau_ River, reference was

made to Admiral Stoddart, and Dr. Douglas proves to be quite right.
The View was really one of the Chang-chau River; but the Editor has
not been able to procure material for one of the Tswan-chau River, and
so he leaves it.
