[China was then divided into twelve _Sheng_ or provinces: Cheng-Tung,
Liao-Yang, Chung-Shu, Shen-Si, Ling-Pe (Karakorum), Kan-Suh, Sze-ch”wan,
Ho-Nan Kiang-Pe, Kiang-Ch? Kiang-Si, Hu-Kwang and Yun-Nan. Rashiduddin
(_J. As._, XI. 1883, p. 447) says that of the twelve Sing, Khanbaligh was
the only one with _Chin-siang_. We read in _Morrison”s Dict._ (Pt. II.
vol. i. p. 70): ‘Chin-seang, a Minister of State, was so called under the
Ming Dynasty.’ According to Mr. E. H. Parker (_China Review_, xxiv. p.
101), _Ching Siang_ were abolished in 1395. I imagine that the thirty-four
provinces refer to the _Fu_ cities, which numbered however _thirty-nine_,
according to _Oxenham”s Historical Atlas_.–H. C.]
