MAP OF CHINA.

AT WAR, WITH CHINA-WHERE

LS CHINA? VERY FEW CAN TELL.

The Sun Newspaper will soon answer the question
by publishing a Beautiful, Large, and Highly
Correct MAP of CHINA, with a Complete
History of that Extensive Empire, and its
Singular People.
THE MAP will nearly occupy a page of The Sun.
It is got up under the special Superintendence of

the celebrated Mr. JAMES Wyr.n, Geographer
to her MAJESTY the QUEEN. It comprehends
also a large portion of India, from the Mouths of

the Ganges--the Islands in the Bay oof Bengal—
Birma h —Assam Thibet Nepaul Cochin

China—Canton, and the immense Islands and

Bays along the coast of China to PEKIN,
situated One Hundred and Twenty Mlles inland
from the confines of the Yellow Sea.
The next News from China is expected to he ex-
ceedingly interesting and decisive. The Island

of CHUSAN, the first point of attack by the
Expedition, commands the great Bay of Nankin,
from which the Imperial Canal communicates
with Pekin, the Capital of the Empire. Chusan
is about half way between Canton and Pekin.
