Arriving on board in the evening, we considered that, as we had already spent a week to little purpose, on the south side of the pro- montory, and as the people were generally backward to receive our books, it would be better to proceed to a more favourable reo'ion : so we resolved, on the follow- ing morning to set sail, for the provinces of Keang-soo and ...Che-keang. On quitting Shan-tung, it may be proper to observe, that we have nowhere been roughly used or ill-treated, while the natives have been uniformly found harmless and peaceful. We seldom saw a weapon of any kind, beyond agricultural implements, and with the exception of one old man, in Ke-san-so, who had a rusty sword, and the few men drawn np at the guard-house, both soldiers and people were without arms. We have sometimes been spoken to, in a surly manner; and, now and then, forbidden to proceed into the villages ; bnt when once on the high road, no one ever attempted to hinder or turn us back ; and, for all that we could see, it would be no difficult matter to travel, from one side of the promontory to the other, if any object were to be gained b}^ so doing.
