Pop. 2.500. two long brass guns, which render them formidable opponents to the pirates; so much so, indeed, that they are seldom or never attacked. The cargoes these vessels usually convey to Singapore consist principally of coffee; but they also bring a few picnls of gambier, bees' wax, twine, and cassia, of an inferior quality; likewise elephants' teeth, rhinoceros' horns, and a few rattans. The cargo varies in value according to the size of the prow, from 500 to 2,000 Spanish dollars; and is readily disposed of to the Chinese merchants, who deliver in return blue and unbleached Madras cloths; raw silk and cotton; Europe shirtings, cambrics, and chintzes; Batick and imitation Batick handkerchiefs and salendangs; camblets, lead, iron, steel, gold thread, Java tobacco, sticklac, &c., &c. These prows invariably belong to the people who live near the mouth of the river, from whom the traders charter them for the voyage. For a prow of 20 piculs burden they pay 30 Spanish dollars, and engage to return within two months. The principal part of the cargo belongs to the nakodah, or captain; but every one of the crew also has a small share. They usually remain at Singapore about a fortnight each trip; but as they cannot all finish their business at one time, they wait for each other a few days, that they may return again in company. On their arrival at C., after discharging their cargoes, and delivering up their prows to the owners, they proceed to the disposal of their respective adventures, which they generally hawk about the country, and dispose of in small quantities at a time, and so slowly, that they are not unfrequently two or three months in getting quit of a whole cargo. They generally barter their goods for produce; and as soon as they have got a sufficient cargo collected for a prow, they immediately return with it to Singapore. The bees wax, ivory, rhinoceros' horns, and gambia, are obtained in the country of C., and are to be had at all the principal villages on the banks of the river. Elephants and rhinoceroses are said to be numerous in C. The former are procured chiefly by means of poison; the latter, by shooting. Coffee, however, is their principal article of import into Singapore. This coffee, we are told, is brought from CAMPAR, an ancient Malayan state, on the E the rich country of Menangkabu, the ancient seat coast of Sumatra, lying between the rivers of Siak of the Malays, and from the Limapuloh country and Danir.

The trade of C. with this settlement is entirely in the hands of Malays, and is carried on by means of small prows of from 50 to 200 piculs burden, which regularly visit Singapore, in small fleets of 10 or 12 prows. The numerous straits in this neighbourhood, but more particularly those near the coast of Sumatra, are infested with pirates, which obliges these trades
