3? ' APPENDIX. A. BRUNSWICiE BAY is at the back of these islands, and fleet. IV. extends from OAf'S BSLZWSTEB, in latitude 15 �10", and N. West longitude 124 � 5*, which terminates Port Nelson, to Croat. Point Adieu. It is au extensive bay or sound, and is about t?venty miles in extent? with good anciiorago all over it. The coast is het? very much indented by rivers and bays; among which may be particularized Prince Regent's River, Hanover Bay, and Port George the Fourth. PRINCE REGENT?S RIVER is, without exception, the most remarkable feature of the North-West Coast. In general the inlets of this coast form extensive ports at their entrance; and, when they begin to assume me ohsranter of a river, their course becomes tortanus, and very irregular; of which there cannot be a better instance than the neigh- boating river, Roe*s River. Prince liegent's River trends into the interior in a S.E.b.E. direction for fifty-four miles, with scarcely a poist to intercept the view, after being thirteen miles within it. The entrance is formed by Caps Wellington on the east, and High Bluff on the west, a width of eight miles, but is so much contracted by islands, that, in hauling round Cape Wellington, the width is 'suddenly reduced to little more than a mile: at the branching off of Rothsay Water, it is little move than half a mile, and also the same width at the entranoe of St. George's Basin. In this space, however, it is iu some parts a little wider, but iu no part between projecting points is it more than one mile and a quarter. For the first nine miles the stream is nay- rowed by islands; beyond this, its boundaries are formad by the natural banks of the river. On the eastern side, within (?ape Wellington, is a deep bay, but of shoal and rocky appearance. At six miles farther on are two inlets, ROTHSAY and Mv?sTslL WATSUS, near which ?he t?d$
