The Chinese have managed to cast immense pieces,
which would match with ourlurty-eiglitpounders,and
have in fact, manifold variations of this instrument of
destruction. They do not understand bow to bore
dtein, but the body is ready cast of iron, with manv
pores, and often honey-combed, so that tliel frequent
ly hurst. The touch hole is, moreover trto large, and
the whole without mathematical proportion; and of
course, not able to maintain a well directed fire; Jn-
stcad of balls, they often use stones or pieces of iron
of every possible shape. r I hey also avail themselves
of grape-shot, rockets, and grenades, which on ac
count of tlieir c!um>y make, prove almost harmless.
1 lie gong and a small drum are the principal in—
strumeiits for enconrageing the soldiers to make an
attack. J he latter emitting a deafening noise, is well
calculated to rouse a martial ardor. They have also
horns which sound like conchs, but are not frequently
blown.
The army is divided into five, ten, and one hun
dred—and these again into hattnUions, camps, brig
ades and divisions, rather different from what we are
accustomed to. They do not march in close ranks,
nor wheel round and draw up like our soldiers, nor
ran they be said properly to inarch. In fact they
walk as they best can, without putting themselves to
any inconvenience, and in time of need they run in 4
trot, and whoever is the foremost is the bravest.
The Chinese have a great variety of works upoil
tactics, and they have the advantage ol containing

afier having soundly abused their antagonist, then
challenge the strongest to single Combat. This offer
decides the whole battle, and the party whose cham
pion i; beaten, thinks it only proper to retreat in dis
order or be cut up in piece meal. Engagements
where masses fight are unknown, and (he whole art
of extermination is reduced to nn re skirmishing.
The army is raised mini the offspring of the sol
diers—who are almost all man led. It is rather ail
opprobrium to he a soldier, aid the very name
hinnt-eang B enough to fill the people with aversion-,
so that no honest man would enlist. As the army Is
very badly paid, the privates are obliged to shift (of
themselves as well as they can. They generally un
derstand seine craft or other, and are frequently vir-
gaged in Imsbandrv. Every province has some lands
which are either cultivated by the military, or let fof
tlieir own advantage. Tiie 1110-t propitious time,
however, for these heroes is when lliey are on actual
service. They tie 11 find ,-ome opportunity for squeez
ing and robbing, and their number.- insure to them al-
ways impunity. Hence the terror awakened among
die peaceful inhabitants at the sight of the defenders
of the country, for they are pri\«Me marauders.

greatest mandarins ha\c risen from the ranks. The

knowledge of tactics.—It is siirpri-iug how ignorant
the officers in general are, though there are regular
\aminations instituted to enable them to obtain a
degree. Once adv meed, they are promoted by slow
step-, and though merit constitutes the sole cause, yet
money is a -ti!! more important article, aud one may
