Abstract
On the Delta-Plain, and the Historical Oltanges in the course of the Yellow River; by RAPHAEL PUMPELLy.tTHE extent of the great plain of Eastern China is pretty well known from native and Jesuit authorities.It lies in a semicircle around the mountainous peninsula of Shantung.Its outer limit, as approximately given on the Jesuit map, begins in the department of Yungping (fu), and, running west, keeps south of the Great Wall till ChaDoaping (chau) N.W. of Peking.Thence, remaining east of the southern branch of the Great Wall, it follows a general S.S.W. course, passing westward of Chingting (fu), till it reaches the upper waters of the Wei River.Here it turns westward into Hwaiking (fu), and crosses the Yellow river in that department.From the right bank of this river it trends a little east of south, passing west of Jiining (fu) (Honan), and then turning eastward it continues south of Kwang (chau) and north of Luhn~an (chau) in Luchau (fu).Here an arm of the plain, in which lies the Tsau lake, stretches southward from the Hwai river to the Yangtse 1 and continues eastward on the right side of this river, occupymg the region between the river and Hangchau bay.A hilly region, in the center of which is Nanking, rises, like a large island from the plain, to the north of this arm.
