beck's Travels, i. 25.— This is the Kaneh of the Hebrews. My friend
the Rev. Samuel Dickinfon’s remarks on this article are worthy the.
reader’s attention. “ This fpecies grows in the warmer parts of E u -
“ rope, and alfo in India and China, and is much ufed for walking
“ flicks and filhing rods. This is a fragile ftaff, and the only cane in
“ ufe that has that property. Upon an accidental bruife it will break
“ in ihivers. It is the Kaneh o f the Hebrews ; and from its brittle
“ quality we fee the propriety of Rabihakah’s alluiion, 2 Kings,
“ xviii. 21. ‘ Now behold thou trufteft upon the Aaff of this
“ S bruifed reed (kaneh), even upon Egypt, on which i f a man
“ | lean, it will go into his hand and pierce it j fo is Pharaoh king
“ ‘ of Egypt ,unto - all that truft on him.’ The Hebrew word
“ having been introduced not only into the Greek and Latin, but
“ moil o f the modern languages of Europe. The’ Spaniards.call it
■“ Gannas, and the Italians Canna. It gave the name of Cane to
“ all the flicks which refembled it, when they were firft imported
“ by the Dutch, &c. from the Eaft Indies:”
