PULO-LANGEN, another island of the cluster mentioned above, is of some extent, though inferior in size to Pulo-Condore. It is chiefly remarkable for a mountain in its centre, terminating in a fork like Parnassus, but denominated by mariners the asses ears. The people of Lord Macartney's squadron were constantly discovering new islands, many of which were clothed with verdure; some had lofty trees growing upon them; others were nothing but naked rocks, the resort of innumerable birds, and whitened with their dung.
