Hong-kong

"Hong-Kong, it may be briefly remarked, has been pronounced by all recent navigators, whose judgment is trustworthy, as capable of affording admirable shelter for ships of any burden."

"The harbour of Hong-kong is famed among foreign residents in China for its extreme healthiness; and many a sojourner at Macao, after trying what medicine and exercise could do for him there, has at length repaired to Hong-kong, and found what he had so long sought in vain."
