Arrived at Cheatow Bay, after having coasted from the anchorage along the south side of the Gulf of Pe-che-lee, 22d August 11 days. From thence to the harbour of Oei-hai-oei, 23d August 1 --- From Pekin River to harbour of Oei-hai-oei, 1 week 5 days, or 12 days. In this cruise round the Gulf of Pe-che-lee we had constant easterly winds, which obliged us to tide the whole way. It blew a gale of wind on the 19th from the north-east, with a high short sea. With this exception, and a fresh breeze on the 3d and 6th, the weather was uniformly fine during our stay in the Yellow Sea, and we never experienced any fogs. * * * * * 6. [Sidenote: Yellow Sea to Corea, 40 leagues.] Sailed from Oei-hai-oei, in China, on the 29th August, 1816. Made the islands off the coast of Corea, 1st September 3 days. Running along the coast of Corea till the 10th September 9 ---- 12 days. On the coast of Corea the winds were mostly from the northward, and the weather uniformly fine, with heavy dews at night. * * * * * 7. [Sidenote: Corea to Loo-choo, 240 leagues.] From the south-west end of Corea to the Great Loo-choo Island, on the 14th September, 1816, 4 days. From Corea to the Great Loo-choo Island we had northeasterly and northerly winds, with one gale from the northward. * * * * * 8. [Sidenote: Loo-choo to China, 320 leagues.] From Loo-choo to Lintin, off Canton. 27th October to the 2d November, 1816 6 days. As the north-east monsoon was blowing fresh, this quick passage was to be expected. * * * * * 9. [Sidenote: China to Manilla, 200 leagues.] From Lemma Islands to Manilla. 2d February to the 5th February, 1817 3 days. A good passage for this season of the year. * * * * * 10. [Sidenote: Manilla to Penang, 600 leagues.] From Manilla to Prince of Wales's Island. 21st February to 8th March, 1817 15 days. In the north-east monsoon this is somewhat under the average passage. * * * * * 11.
