THE COMPASS.
An origiNa! invsntion oftbe CbincG

an origina! iavsntiOn Of tbe Cbineie.
The prefent fyfem of Chinefe navigation is
to keep as near the fhore as pofible and me-
yer to lofe fight OF land, unefs in voyages that
absolutely require il fuch as TO Japan, Bata-
via, and Cochin China.---Knewing the bearing
or dirc6tion Of the port intended to be made.
let the wind be fair or foul, they endeavour, as
near as pof1ihie to keep the head of the fnip al
ways pointing towards the port by means ofthe
compass. This inftruincnt, as ufed in China, has
every appearance of originality. The natives
know nothing, from hifory or tradition, of its
fra Introduction or difcovery; and the ufe of
the magnet, for indicating the poles of the
earth, can he traced, from their records, to
period Of time when the greatef part of Eu-
rope was in fate ofbarbarfm.
II has been conjeefJsed, indeed, that the ufe
of the magnetic needle in Enrore .y.. fra
brought from China by the famous traveller
Marco Polo, the Venetian. Its appearance i'm
mediately after his death, or according to fome,
while he yetliving, but, at all events, in his
own country, renders fuch aconjeeture extreme
ly probable. The embaf1ies in which he was
employed by Cubla-Kahn, and the long voya-
ges he performed by fca, could fcarcely have
been practicable without the aid of the COM
pats. Be this AS it may, the Chinefe were, with
out doubt, well acquainted with this isflru-
ment long before the thirteenth century.-It is
recorded in their beft authenticated annals
merely as a fact, and not as any extraordinary
circumfance, that the Emperor Chung-ko pre-
tented an ambafiador of CochiD-China, who had
loft his way in coming by fea, with fng-nan-
febm "a needle pointing out the fouth) the name
which it fill retains.
EvcI this idea of the feat of MagBetick inlIu-
erce, together with the contribution ofthe com
pats box, the diviion of the card into eight
principal points, and each ofthefe again fubdi-
vided into three, the manner of Impending the
needle, and its diminutive fzc feldom exceed
ing in length three quarters of an inch, are all
of them ftrong prefumptions of its being an o.
rigina, and not borrowed invention. By
fome, indeed, it has been conieetured, that the
Scythans, in the northern region of Ala, were
acquainted with the polarity of the magnet, in
ages antecedent to all hifory, and that the vir-
tue of this fofIl was intended to be meant by
the Tying arrow, prefented to Abris by Apollo,
about the time of the Trojan war, with the
help of which he could tranfport himfelf wher-
ever he pleafed.
The abundance of iron ores, and perhaps of
native iron, in every part of Tartary, and the
very early period oftime in which the natives
were acquainted with the proceis of fmeltng
thele ores, render the idea not improbable, of
the northern nations OF Europe, and Alta Tor the
5cythians) being irit acquainted with the poa-
rity of the magnet. AnonySIonJ.
