a parliament town of Ar- gyleshire in Scotland, seated on the eastern shore of the peninsula of Kintyre or Cantyre, of which it is the capital. It hath a good harbour; and is now a very considerable place, though within these 50 years only a petty fishing town. It has in fact been created by the fishery: for it was appointed the place of rendez- vous for the busses; and above 260 have been seen in the harbour at once. The inhabitants amounted to 6000 in 1811. W. Long. 5. 10. N. Lat. 54.
CAMDEN, a small town of Gloucestershire in England, containing 1214 inhabitants in 1811. It gives title of Viscount, by courtesy, to the earl of Gainsborough, his son. W. Long. 1. 50. N. Lat. 52.
