PREFACE 
 
 In a work of this nature consisting, entirely of the 
 minutest detail, the materials of which are' derived from 
 different and often conflicting authorities, perfect accuracy 
 cannot reasonably be expected. My object has been 
 in every instance to make such an approximation to 
 the truth as may be sufficient for every practical purpose; 
 and, as no labour has been spared in the attempt, I 
 feel assured that it will be found on experience that I have 
 generally succeeded. 
 
 The statistical information has been principally com- 
 municated by Gentlemen whose situation and official 
 employments enabled them to supply it, and to whom 
 I submitted the bare skeleton of the Routes for that 
 purpose. In some instances the population is stated from 
 actual investigation, while in others the number of houses 
 and shops is given on conjecture only. I^articular circum- 
 stances however affect the correctness of both. The 
 Routes through Malwa and the adjacent Provinces were 
 principally measured during the years 1817, 181S, and 1819, 
 when the country was slowly recovering from a state 
 of anarchy; and the same observation applies nearly to 
 Khandes.* The Routes in the Deccan were collected 
 during the years 1823, 1824, and 1825, at a time when 
 many of the districts were greatly depopulated by the 
 united effects of cholera and famine, and the survivors 
 abandoned their homes from the apprehension of those 
 dreadful evils. During this eventful period some districts 
 
 ^ It will be observed tbat the spelling of names varies in different parts 
 of the work; for instance Ahmednuggur, Nassik, Kallian, &c. When 
 pslrt of the work had been printed, it occurred to me as an improvement 
 to dispense in some cases with the double consonant which custom has 
 sanctioned. 
 
( vi ) 
 
 were for many months almost entirely deserted, while those 
 adjacent obtained a small increase of population. 
 
 In the Alphabetical Index to the Towns, &c. which occur 
 in the course of the work, I have endeavoured to add 
 the names of the province in which they are respectively 
 situated. I am, however, not so well acquainted with 
 geographical boundaries as to suppose my arrangement 
 free from error. Of the ancient division of the country 
 into Sirkars, Prants, and Soobhas, full information might 
 perhaps have been obtained from the old territorial records 
 in the office at Poona, but the labour of examining them 
 would have been immense, and the result more an object 
 of curiosity than utility. I have therefore adopted those 
 names for provinces or divisions of the country with which 
 most of us are familiar. It will be requisite however 
 to mark the limits of those divisions. 
 
 Beginning at the South, I have distinguished by the name 
 of Carnatic the country south of the Toombudra. 
 
 That river indeed, in its whole course, forms the best 
 southern boundary to this Presidency that can be contem- 
 plated. The numerous southern Jageerdars of the Mahratta 
 State who all reside north and west of it, possess tlie greater 
 part of the territory as far as the Bheema. 
 
 The name of Doab, better known as the Southern 
 Mahratta country, I have applied to the territory between 
 the Toombudra and Krishna rivers above the Ghats, not 
 however including such part of the territories of the Kola- 
 poor and Sattara Rajahs as are situated within these limits. 
 
 The Kolapoor Rajah's country is divided from that of the 
 Sattara Rajah by the Warna river, and generally from 
 the rich and populous country of the Southern Jageer- 
 dars by the Krishna. The Sattara territory extends to 
 Pundurpoor on the east, and is separated by the Neera 
 river from the country I have distinguished by the name 
 of Deccan. 
 
 For the proper limits of the Deccan I refer my readers 
 to Hamilton's Hindoostan, or other works of authority, 
 the tract to which I have given that name includes only the 
 CoUectorships of Poona, Ahmednuggur and Sholapoor. The 
 province of Beder is to the east of this. 
 
C vii ) 
 
 North of Beder, bounded by the Deccan on the west . 
 and Berar on the east, is the Nizam's portion of the 
 ancient Sirkar of Aurungabad, which formerly extended 
 to the Ocean. This territory I have distinguished by 
 the name of Nizam's in the Index. But throughout the 
 Routes, besides the entire provinces of Beder and Hydra- 
 bad, there are many towns in the Deccan, and Southern 
 Mahratta country, which belong to his Highness. The 
 whole of Berar also, west of the ^urda rjver, irom its^^ 
 source to its junction with the'^Godavery, belongs to thef^^^S 
 Nizam, while the territory on the east bank belongs to the^^^i^^ 
 "Rajah of Nagpoor. 
 
 Khandes, the highly fertile but still desolate valley of 
 the Taptee, has the Sautpoora range of hills for its northern 
 boundary, and the Indyadree or Chandore range for its 
 southern. Meiwar I conclude to form part of Khandes. 
 Nemaur is that part of the valley of the Nerbudda com- 
 prehended between the Sautpoora and the nearest part of 
 the Vindhia range, the north bank forming part of Malwa. 
 
 The Attaveesee is sometimes distinguished as part of 
 Gujerat, of which it contributes to form the southern 
 military division, and occasionally is mentioned as part 
 of the Northern Konkan; the name is applied in the 
 present work to the country between the Taptee and 
 Damungunga. 
 
 By Gujerat I intend the countries between Malwa on the 
 east and the two Runs on the west, and from the Taptee 
 to the province of Sirowi. The four provinces in the 
 Gujerat peninsula I have included under the name of 
 Katteeawar, of which Okamundel is an insulated portion. 
 Wagur is separated from Kutch Proper by the river Sahrun, 
 and Mooltan from the latter by an extensive Run. 
 
 These geographical limits are merely assumed as best 
 suited for this work. Had I attempted more minute divisions, 
 I should often have been led into error, while those which 
 I have adopted are sufficiently distinct for the purposes 
 of the ordinary Traveller and my brother Officers. 
 
 It will be readily perceived that I have followed no 
 particular system of orthography. I have not ventured 
 to alter the spelling of such words, or names of places. 
 
( viii ) 
 
 as long usage and a kind of official sanction have made 
 familiar, however incorrect. An uniform system of re- 
 presenting oriental v^ords in the Roman character is 
 unfortunately still a desideratum; and though every one 
 feels the inconvenience, every succeeding attempt seems 
 only to render it more hopeless. The critic in orthography 
 must not be offended if occasional violations of every 
 system occur in the present work.

 From BOMBAY to POONA and 
 AHxMEDNUGGURviaPanwell 
 
 There are public bungalows for travellers 
 at each of the usual haltiiig placet. 
 
 Ensbarking at low water the voyajre to 
 Panwell is accomplished in from 85 to 6 
 hours. The passage to Bombay is very un- 
 certain, often occupying 8 or 10 hours iu the 
 fair, and 14 or 15 hours in the rainy season 
 Northern Konkan. 
 
 At the entrance of the Gaudeh or Panwell 
 river, Belapoor is on the north, and Woolwa 
 a d^k station, on the south bank. From the 
 first the road makes a circuit of nearly 1 
 miles, to avoid creeks. The road from Wool 
 wa is also very bad, but it is only 5^ miles 
 to the river at Panwell, which is quite shal- 
 low near the town at low water, the only 
 time that a traveller is likely to prefer h 
 journey by land. 
 
 At Panwell is the first traveller's bungalow, 
 and two taverns. There is also a Post OflBce 
 Writer to separate tbe packets for the Northern

 Ascent of the Mahej ghdt 
 
 Note* — The Malsej ghat may be 
 said to commonce at Teetubee, when 
 the road first descending winds between 
 high mountains. The a&cent then be- 
 gins and continues to the top 1| miles 
 more, which is the extent of the ghat 
 properly so called. From the top the 
 road leads through a valley between 
 high ranges of mountains to Murra 
 The Malsej ghat is perfectly passable 
 by camels and elephants, but being 
 Steep, and, in some places narrow, 
 with a precipice on one side, their loads 
 require to be taken off at the bottom, 
 and to be carried up by coolies, which 
 are procurable in plenty at Murra. 
 There is a made road throughout, 
 which, though much out of repair, 
 offers great comparative facility for 
 improvement. In the ascent is an 
 excavation containing carved images 
 of Gunesh and Hunooman, and a cis- 
 tern of fine water. The scenery is 
 grand, but the mountains arc scantily 
 wooded.

 Note. — The road from Sroongana 
 or rather Rowra, is through a thick 
 jungle, and a succession of hills, often 
 close, continue to near Bannsda. In 
 the rains the road is crossed by nu- 
 merous streams, and is muddy nearly 
 throughout, but in the dry season it 
 is passable to a cart. In passing through 
 this jungle in July 1816 the 1st batta- 
 lion 6th regiment continued healthy 
 but full three-fourths of the cattle died 
 from inclement weather, occasioning 
 the loss of much public and private 
 baggage.

 son, excepting at the Wasera and 
 Sinnur ghats. The Rowra ghat offers 
 no material obstacle to a cart. The 
 first part of this route was passed 
 over in May, the latter part in July 
 when the approach to the Rowra ghat, 
 and the whole way thence to Surat, 
 is a succession of patches of deep mud 
 From Baunsda to Surat carts are 
 procurable, the rate being one rupee

 The route most frequented by 
 native travellers between As- 
 seer and Simrole ghat, which 
 leads to Fndore, crosses the 
 Nerbudda at Barwaee. The 
 following is extracted from a 
 gentleman's journal, who tra- 
 velled the road with camels 
 
 To Boorgaon, I. v.^

 Note. — The Nerbiidda's bed, when 
 fordable at Motuku, is most unfavour- 
 able for the passage of cattle, being 
 exceedingly stony. 
 
 This route is not only shorter, but 
 by all accounts better than that by 
 Mundlaisnr and the Jaum gbat. Carts, 
 guns, and camels may be taken the 
 whole way, and the Simrole ghat 
 is so good that a curricle might be

 Note. — The egress from this ghat at 
 the top is through aa old gateway. 
 The road leads along a ridge, whicli, 
 on the left, is perfectly perpendicular 
 from its base in the Konkan. Four 
 miles on the right is the fort of Rang- 
 na, and on the left is the strong hill 
 fort of Mnnhar, of which fable has 
 made the god Pandoo architect. Son- 
 gurh, Buddurgurh, Sunto, and other 
 hill forts belonging to the Kolapoor 
 Rajah, are seen in the distance, also 
 the Warree country, the Konkan, and 
 the sea. The distance from the top to 
 the Kusba of Pautgaon is about 5 
 miles. 
 
 HuNOOMAN GFiAT, the next adjacent, 
 is a cattle road, but a very bad one. 
 Pautgaon is 4 miles from Hunmunt- 
 j^urh at the top, and Banda is 4 miles 
 from Tulkut at the bottom. There is 
 a chokey at the foot dependent on 
 Munhar, to collect the customs on 
 cattle. 
 
 Ghotgay ghat is a good road for 
 cattle, excepting some bad places near 
 the top, which is 5 miles from Paut- 
 gaon. 
 
 Sewgurh ghat is frequented by 
 cattle from Kolapoor, who go to the 
 weekly baz.ar at Kooriee, near the 
 foot of the ghat. Kooriee is about 
 6m. from Phonda, and about 7m. over 
 a very bad hill road to Khurool, at 
 the bottom of the Bowra ghat.

 Note. — The difference in the distance 
 from the sea coast to Mhow between 
 the Kaira and the Baroda route is 
 trifling; i. e. from Kambay to Mhow, 
 via Kaira and Godra, and from 
 Tankaree Bunder to Mhow, via Ba- 
 roda. The roads on both routes are 
 equally good, but the facilities of ob- 
 taining supplies and carriage are not 
 the same. On the Baroda route from 
 chota Oodeepoor to Bhopawur, a 
 distance of about 90 miles, neither 
 bullocks nor carts can be procured, 
 and no provisions, except grain, and 
 occasionally a little milk. During the 
 hot season water is scarce and bad 
 The people are inhospitable, and rather 
 insolent, and the jungle is very exten 
 sive and dangerously unhealthy after 
 the rains. The villages are very poor 
 and small, and the inhabitants gene 
 rally speaking very unwilling .to as 
 sist travellers, or to have any inter 
 course with them, except for the pur 
 pose of committing robbery. 
 
 On the route via Kaira and Godra 
 the villages are much larger, and all 
 common supplies may be obtained at 
 inostof them, and carts and bullocks 
 at many. The jungle, though very 
 thick in some places, is consider 
 ably broken and interrupted, and docs 
 not extend above 60 miles altogether, 
 The people are more civilized and ac- 
 commodating than on the other road, 
 and the country abounds with game 
 However the Bheels are very nume- 
 rous, and robbery is so common that 
 no native will travel by night. Guards 
 of seven or eight men armed with 
 matchlocks, &c. can always be procur- 
 ed, and the traveller is perfectly safe 
 •while under their protection. This 
 route has hitherto been very little 
 frequented by Europeans ; but were it 
 more gencrallv known, I think it would 
 always be preferred to the other.

 Note. — The road from Loonawarra 
 to Banswarrah is generally very good 
 and is much travelled on by the tra 
 ders of Malwa and Gujerat. But in tbe 
 extensive and thick forests Bagur fevers 
 of a malignant nature prevail during 
 the two months succeeding the rainy- 
 season; nor can the climate at any 
 season of the year be deemed either 
 pleasant or salubrious within this 
 province. 
 
 From Balasinnore Sone^poor is dist 
 19m. 3f. viz. to Peeloodree, 5m. 4f;

 is crossed at the Waul ford, Im. 7(,: 
 Soneepoor is thence 4m. 6f. 
 
 The first part of this route very ma- 
 terially disagrees with another in my

 PUTTUN SOMNAUTH oi 
 PUTTUN VILLOWEL to 
 POORBUNDER: 
 
 Note. — Puttun Somnauth is a large 
 ancient Hindoo town, but it is cele- 
 brated as much for the number of its 
 mosques as of its temples. The wall is 
 fast going to decay, but on the land side 
 is a deep ditch excavated in a rock. It 
 was taken 19 years ago by escalade 
 on the sea side, from the Mangrol 
 chief, by the Nuwab of Joouagurh. 
 
 The Hindoo pilgrims bathe at thej 
 junction of the rivers Hurna, Kupula 
 and Sirsuttee. The great fame of 
 this temple in former times through 
 out the east, attracted the attention of 
 Mahmood of Ghizni, who, out of a 
 bigotted zeal for his own faith, led an 
 army against it. He succeeded in 
 taking Puttun, which he plundered, 
 and destroyed the temple. The pre- 
 sent temple was erected by Alia 
 Bhye, the wife of the first Mulhar Rao 
 Holkar [vide Malcolms Central India) 
 a woman whose piety and beneficence 
 have spread her gifts in every part of 
 India. On the banks of the Sirsutty, 
 about a mile from Puttun, is the place 
 where Shree Krishna received the 
 wound that terminated his incarnation.

 Note — .The country from Nowa-i 
 nnp-gur is thinly peopled and cultiva- 
 ted, except near the villatres, but the 
 reads are pretty good. There is much 
 high grass over the whole country. 
 
 Okamundel is separated from the 
 main land by a Runn, over which therd 
 are roads across at Pindtarnk or Pin- 
 tara, and Ghorghur on the main land, 
 and Muddi on "the Oka shore. To the 
 last place the road is along an em- 
 bankment 20 paces broad, erected 
 against the-sea, and is passable at all 
 times. Okamundel Mas inhabited by 
 a number of independent, and formerly 
 piratical, tribes, and the country which 
 is covered with milk bush and bauble 
 jungle, was favourable to their habits. 
 The valleys are partially sown with 
 bajreeand jooaree. There are no rivers, 
 and the villages are supplied with water 
 from tanks. Besides the temples of 
 Dwarka and Shunkodwar, there are 
 three fortified places in the province, 
 Aramra, Beerwalla, andPositra. The 
 Gopee Chundun is taken from a tank 
 near the latter place. On the road 
 which leads to Dwarka (which is 10 
 miles S. E. from Muddi) there arc a 
 number of stone baths of a very hand- 
 some structure, called Secfa Klioond, 
 for the pilgrims to wash themselves in. 
 This wild province has several superb 
 pieces of architecture, and the terrace 
 along the Goomtah^(creek near Dwar- 
 ka) has a number 'of handsome Dhe- 
 ris of various designs. 
 
 Dheengee is 2^ miles from Muddi, it 
 is surrounded by a very thick jungle 
 principally of milk bush, and Dwarka 
 or Dooarka is 10m. 2f. N. W. of 
 Dheengee.

 Note. — With the exception of Anjia 
 and Mujhill, the villages afford few 
 supplies, and troops marchingiliis route 
 without a bazar would experience great 
 inconvenience. The road appears to 
 be good throughout, but more or less 
 sandy ; like, 1 believe, most of the roads 
 through Kutch. An exception of this 
 is the march from Muttul to Gorranee 
 which is stony, and where two small 
 ghats occur. 
 
 For the convenience of supplies the 
 following route has been recommended

 Note. — Water and supplies abun- 
 dant the whole way, except at Sur- 
 rootra and Girwur, where grain only is 
 scarce. This route is practicable to 
 wheel carriages as far as Girwur, but 
 in many parts the road is extremely 
 heavy. From the base of Aboo to 
 the summit the road is extremely 
 rugged, and the ascent occasionally 
 very abrupt and impracticable by 
 cattle. 
 
 Note. — The hill of Aboo contains 
 several magnificent temples built prin 
 cipally of marble, and images, which 
 do not less display the genius of the 
 sculptor, than they excite the wonder 
 of the traveller as to the means em- 
 ployed to bring them there ; each 
 image being represented as one solid 
 piece. The climate is remarkably 
 cool for the latitude, between 24" and 
 25°. In the hottest months the water 
 is as cold as it is in the cold season in 
 other parts of India. The hill is stated 
 by natives to be 24 coss in length by 
 12 in breadth. The face of the coun- 
 try on the hill is rugged and hilly, but 
 the valleys produce abundant crops of 
 grain. Vines loaded with grape, man- 
 go and date trees, with the wild rose 
 are all to be met with.

 Note. — Seronge is chiefly inhabit- 
 ed by Afghans, and is large and well 
 built, many of the buildings being 2 or 
 3 stories high : it contains about 1 ,500 
 shops. The district attached com- 
 prises 360 villages, and belongs to 
 Ameer Khan. Between Bhopal and 
 Seronge the road generally is good. 
 There are several short ascents and 
 descents that would occasion delay to 
 artillery ; there are also some narrow 
 places near the rivers, which it would 
 be requisite to widen for heavy guns. 
 By barometric observation this part 
 of Malwa appears from J, 500 to 1,700 
 feet above the sea, and the temperature 
 appears to be 8 degrees cooler than 
 that of the upper provinces of Hin- 
 doostan. This arises less from the ele 
 vation than from the black soil, which 
 is exceedingly retentive of moisture. 
 In September, October, and November, 
 fevers are very prevalent, but they are 
 generally slight. The whole of the coun 
 try is thinly peopled, and ill cultivated. 
 With the exception of Bhopal, Islam 
 nugur, and Seronge, the houses are 
 chiefly of mud, either thatched or 
 tiled. The inhabitants of the villages 
 are Rajpoots, Jats, Korars, Kachees, 
 and Meenas, but in the towns the 
 greater proportion are Pathans.

 than 100 blacksmiths are employed in 
 smelting the iron found in the neigh 
 bourhood. Tiiis place is celebrated 
 for the manufacture of matchlocks, 
 bows, arrows, and handles of sabres. 
 The Rajahs of Nurwur frequently 
 resided here.

 through a valley, and is frequently 
 uneven and stony ; thence to Seepree 
 the road is excellent. From Budur

 and grass which shelters occasionally a 
 mounted banditti. Scarcely half the 
 arable land is under tillage. Water is 
 found close to the surface.

 sides by a pucka ditch. Almost all 
 the buildings are of stone and lime, 
 two stories high and flat roofed. It is 
 said to contain 1,100 shops, and arti- 
 ficers of all kinds. There are 2,000 
 families, descendants of the Afghans, 
 who came to India a century ago 
 The fort, by trigonometrical mea 
 surement is 526 feet above the town. 
 The greater part of the district is in 
 the jaedad of Hindoo Rao, and the rest 
 in the jageer of Bappoo Sindhia, bro- 
 ther-in-law and cousin to the Maharaj. 
 The forest passed through abounds with 
 bears, hogs, deer, wolves, and leopards.

 fish and large tortoises. 
 
 The road from Kundwa to the Ag 
 nee river requires repair to render it 
 passable for ordnance ; thence to Hur- 
 da is described as aflfording ready pas- 
 sage to village pundies. The country 
 between Bhamgurh and Charwa is com- 
 pletely deserted (1817), and, from 
 within a few miles of the former place, 
 covered with thin jungle and long 
 grass. There is not a more direct 1 
 from Kundwa to Hindia than through 
 Charwa. The road from Kundwa 
 to Charwa by Singossa and Moondhi 
 are both reported as being impassable 
 for wheel carriages. Grain is likely 
 to be scarce unless a liberal price is 
 given.

 Note, — ^The set in this division is calculated for 12 bearers and 1 mausaljee. 
 
 The set at Tendoolwaree carries to Nuldroog, to which place the Postmaster at Poona 
 has to post bearers for persons travelling post by order of Government. 
 
 When a private gentleman requires bearers to be posted for him he should be very par- 
 ticular in stating to his correspondent whom he relies on for assistance, the day, evea 
 the hour, on which he proposes to commence his journey; the places he intends to halt 
 at for refreshment, and the time he intends to halt for that purpose. If neglectful of these 
 particulars the humroals may reach their stations several days before they are required, 
 and incur to the traveller, perhaps a great additional expence. Should the traveller, on 
 any occassion wish to halt a day at any place, his stating his intention previously would 
 save the posting of one set. For instance, a traveller from Bombay to Poona will meet 
 the first Poona set at Khalapoor, and supposing that they take him to the top of the ghat to 
 breakfast, they can, having refreshed themselves, take him on in the evening to Wurgaon ; 
 or they might come to Karlee to breakfast and run to Wurgaon or Tuligaon in the even- 
 ing. For the extra labour however, they would be entitled to, at least half a rupee each 
 man, additional. The hummals at Panwell are under the Collector at Tanna, at Poona. 
 they are under the Collector iu the city, and under the Bazar Master in camp} and this- 
 applies also to gholapoor.

 Note. — The duty of posting bearers from Nuldroog rests with the 
 Postmaster at the Residency of Hyderabad, but as the whole of the 
 bearers require to be seat to their stations from Hyderabad, seven or 
 eight days are required to lay the dak. The expence is 8 annas per 
 diem to each bearer, reckoned from the day tiiey quit their families 
 till they return. It may be as well to mention also, that any mis- 
 take in posting any one set may subject the traveller to great loss 
 -of time and considerable expence.

 Note. — ^The road to Manikapatam is through heavy sand, with Chilka Lake close on the 
 right. At Manikapatam cross an arm of the sea one mile wide at low water, which com- 
 municates with the Chilka Lake. At Nursingapatam cross a rivulet which has a ferry boat 
 on it during the rains. Cross the Bandia nulla, 100 yards wide, near Juggonath Pooree, a 
 small civil and military station : the residents at which have houses on the sea coast about 
 a mile from the celebrated temple of Juganath. Ci'oss the Teon Mahanuddee to Mookoon- 
 tiapoor, two miles on the Jugganath side of Peeplee. The civil and military station of 
 Cuttack is on the banks of the Mahanuddee, one mile east of the city of Cuttack, which is 
 on the Ratgoree river. The Ratgoree is one mile wide, and ferried over from June to 
 February : during the other months it is fordable. 
 
 In the Ganjam district oil is to be paid for as required, and batta of one anna to each 
 person after the first day, is 15 annas per diem additional. In the Cuttack district oil is 
 charged when used at 4 annas each stage. 
 
 If a traveller leaves Cuttack at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, he will arrive at Bhareepoor, 
 half way to Balasore about 8 or 9 o'clock the next morning, where there is a bungalow 
 for the accommodation of travellers. He can remain at Bhareepoor during the heat of the 
 day, start again in the evening and reach BalasOre to breakfast. Proceed again in the 
 cool of the evening, and arrive at Dantoon, halfway to Midnapoor, early next morning ; 
 where there is a comfortable house for the accommodation of traveller^. In like manner 
 if li€ goes on again in the evening to Midnapoor, another night will take him to Tumlook, 
 where he gets into a boat and proceeds up the Hoogly to Calcutta. 
 
 A traveller with one set consisting of 8 bearers, 2 bungy burdars, and 2 mausals, pays 
 8 annas per mile, agreeably to regulation, and pays 2 annas per man per diem for detain- 
 ing the bearers on the road. Or he may pay 3 annas per man for each stage from 
 Tanghee to Khutnaghur, and agreeably to this the follosving is calculated :

 During the moonsoon it is recommended to travellers to run ^om 
 MidnaporetoTumlook, whichis 51 miles, viz. Debrah and Purtabpoor, and 
 embark there on Roopnaraen river, a branch of the Hoogly. The passage 
 is about 15 hours to Calcutta. The expence from Jellesore to Tumlook, 
 2 stages, is 26^ Rs. for bearers, and 1| Rs. for oil, being for 12 bearers, 
 2 bungy burdars, and 1 mausaljee.

 The distance by sea from Bombay to Panwell, about 20 miles, and from 
 Tumlook to Calcutta, about 90 miles, should be added to make the whole 
 distance from Bombay to Calcutta. The distance by land, however, from 
 Tumlook to Calcutta, is only 50 miles. 
 
 Good hammals will go four miles an hour, sometimes more, but the 
 time occupied in the journey depends principally on the traveller himself. 
 From 20 to 22 days is a reasonable allowance for the journey to a stout 
 man. 
 
 These stages are furnished to me by the several Postmasters on route, 
 as well as by several travellers. In the Nizam's territory, however, no two" 
 routes in my possession correspond.

 Note. — ^The estimated expence thus far depends upon the resources 
 in hammals at Sattara and Kurarh. If these places cannot supply 
 the number required at the nearest stations the expence would 
 nearly double this estimate. I have no knowledge of the resources 
 of Tasgaon and Meritch in hamals.

 The following extract from the Police Office Regulations at Madras, 
 regarding palankeen bearers will enable a person to calculate the 
 expence of dak travelling through the Madras territory. 
 
 Palankeen bearers of all descriptions, 9 in a set, to be paid at the rate of 
 3 fanams per day, or 2 pagodas each per month. 
 
 Bearers hired to go beyond the precincts of Madras, to be paid according 
 to the distance ; calculating the rate of hire at 3 fanams each for every 
 10 Enghsh miles. 
 
 A set of bearers required to go beyond the precincts of Madras, or to 
 St. Thomas's Mount, Poonamallee, or Ennore, shall consist of 10, but if 
 required for a greater distance, of 12. 
 
 Bearers hired at Madras, if they go into the country beyond the distance 
 of 10 miles, and are detained for some days, are to receive 1 fanam a day 
 batta in addition to their daily hire of 3 fanams each. 
 
M2 Table of Ea^pences, Distances, S^c. 
 
 Bearers are entitled to the daily hire of 3 ftinams, although their services 
 may only be required for a portion of the day ; it will however be optional 
 with the bearers to engage themselves per trip or for half hire. 
 
 A set of bearers when travelling shall receive 3 single Madras fa- 
 nams each for every 10 English miles. 
 
 If a person in thexourse of a journey remains at a place, he wiust for the 
 first three days pay each bearer 1 single Madras fanam batta; if he 
 remains more than three, days, he must pay each bearer 3 single 
 Madras fan am s per day. 
 
 If the bearers are to travel through cross-roads, they are to be paid at the 
 rate of 3 single Madras fanams each per 10 English miles. 
 
 A set of bearers on field service to receive each 2 pagodas a month, and 
 the head bearer 2^ pagodas. 
 
 Bearers on field force are not to receive batta. 
 Posted Bearers. 
 
 If the posts or stations are divided into distances of 30 miles, the rate or 
 charge for a set of 12 bearers shall be 12 single Madras fanams for the first 
 station, 18 single Madras fanams for the second, increasing 6 fanams every 
 station or post; and if the stations are subdivided into half distances 
 of 15 miles each, then the increase upon each post shall be 3 fanams; 
 and if into distances of 10 miles each, the increase shall be 2 fanams, and 
 so in proportion according to the division of the posts. 
 
 If the bearers are detained on the road, they are to receive 1 fanam a^ 
 day for the first 4 days, and 3 fanams a day for every day afterwards. 
 
 If after having been posted they are recalled, they are to receive for the 
 time they have been absent, at the rate of 1 j pagoda per month, and the 
 head bearer at the rate of 2 pagodas. 
 
 If bearers are sent from Madras to any distance, to bring back a gentle- 
 man from thence, half the hire is to be paid for going, and full hire for 
 bringing back. 
 
 In case a set of bearers who are posted for any gentleman be left at any 
 particular post, having received their full hire to that post, any other gen- 
 tleman arriving there, or requiring that the set be detained there oii hi» 
 account, shall pay to the set of bearers the rates for waiting already esta- 
 blished ; and for the distance of journey the usual travelling pay of 3 single 
 Madras fanams for every 10 miles.

 From BOMBAY to the NILGHEERY HILLS: 
 
 The voyage from Bombay to Cannanore is accomplished in about 6 days, 
 and, thence to. Calicut is reckoned 12 hours sail. Paulghautchery, distant 
 87 miles, is reached by palankeen dak in 24 hours ; thence to Coimbatoor 
 the distance is 30 miles, and to the foot of the hills 28 miles further. 
 From the bottom of the hills to Dimpatty above, is a distance of 12 or 13^ 
 miles ; the most part of the way being a severe ascent, and taking nearly a 
 whole night to go up in a palankeen. The whole distance from Calicut 
 is about 158 miles ; and may be posted the whole way. 
 
 The country on the hill is described as beautiful, as abounding with game, 
 and the gardens producing roses, geraniums, &c. in profusion, with plenty 
 of vegetables. The average range of the thermometer is about 66° in April y 
 and from comparisons made «ttthe same time it wa&94° at Coimbatoor* 
 
Table of Distances, E.vpefices, S^c, 143 
 
 No. V. 
 From BOMBAY to MAHABULESHWUR. 
 
 Mahabuleshwur is almost equidistant from Mhar and Sattara, and 
 forming a table land of nearly 5,000 feet, it gives rise to the different 
 branches of the Krishna and other rivers, and is therefore the mpst elevated 
 point of the ghat in these parts. The breadth of this table land, from the 
 point where the road begins at the ghat leading from the valley of Sattara, 
 until it descends on the opposite side into the Konkan, is about eight miles. 
 The distance from Mhar to the hills is little more than thirty miles, or three 
 easy stages ; and to those who propose to take a trip here from Bombay, 
 I would recommend that they should take a boat as far as Mhar, via 
 Bankoot, and then procure palankeen bearers from Dapoolee for the re- 
 mainder of the way. 
 
 Those who have enjoyed the usual cold weather of the Deckan, during 
 December and January, will be able to form a much better general idea 
 of the Mahabuleshwur climate from March to June, than could be possibly 
 conveyed to them by any more minute or laboured description. The 
 minimum of Fahrenheit*s thermometer is, sometimes, at night 64° ; a range 
 of temperature which is only four degrees less than the maximum heat in 
 May on the Nilgherry hills. Though the average heat at Mahabuleshwur, a 
 little after noon, is then 80® in a house, or 20° greater than the 
 extreme heat of the Nilgherry hills. The temperature of the former, when 
 there are clouds, does not exceed 70°. The average variation during the 
 day is about 12° of Fahrenheit. 
 
 To those who are suffering more particularly from weakened stomach, 
 general debility, and exhaustion, than any from any specific visceral en- 
 largement, a residence here during the hot season presents incalculable 
 advantages. When the secretion of the liver has been languid, it at first 
 produces an irregular but augmented circulation in that organ, by in- 
 creasing the tone and energy of the stomach ; and to those who might not 
 have access to a physician, it will be satisfactory to know, that a few graia 
 doses of calomel, the daily application of warm bathing, and the flesh 
 brush, with the habitual use of flannel and warm clothing, are the proper 
 correctives for this state, until, by a longer residence here, the body shall 
 have retrieved what it had previously lost in a too moist and heated atmos- 
 phere. Exercise, both on foot and horseback, can be freely indulged in ; to 
 which the invalid will be naturally prompted by the bracing influence of the 
 air, and the encouragement of a good road for a morning ride, through 
 romantic and picturesque scenery. 
 
 To the sportsman these hills offer, I fear, but little amusement ; a few 
 hares, jungle and spur fowl, being the only game. But those to whom the 
 voice of the blackbird and thrush can bring pleasing recollections, and who 
 love to associate the pleasures of a happier climate with the appearance 
 of ferns, willows, and the moss in blossom, will find here no mean resem- 
 blance, for India, of that climate, for which, as Englishmen, we long even 
 when the common evils of our exile are not aggravated by sickness. 
 
 A temporary chupper over a tent would effectually secure the traveller 
 from any inconvenience during the day when the thermometer exceeds 80°, 
 which is the maximum here, in tents, for May. As the nights are cold, 
 blankets and warm clothing are indispensable requisites.

 List of Ghats 171 the Syhadree Range of Mountai?is, from the 
 Rhowra Ghat leading into the Aitaveesee, to the Ram Ghat 
 leading to Goa, 
 
 Rhowra Ghat. — The ghats, or passes, descending from Giingthury 
 into the Kokan, are, all of them, short and easy of descent, and differ 
 materially from those of the Judyadree range near Kassarbaree, or those 
 in this range more southerly and near Poona. 
 
 In height they do not appear generally to exceed 500 feet, and the 
 descent is rather steeper than the Kassarbary, but the great difference is, 
 that the country throughout to the right and left of each road, which itself 
 winds along a ridge or branch (as it may be called) of the highest hills, is 
 completely intersected by similar ridges, extremely steep, mostly too much 
 so, in any cross direction, for even foresters to descend ; and the whole 
 face of the country is covered with trees, bamboos, underwood, and long 
 grass. This makes it impassable for cavalry except by the roads, or rather 
 paths, all of which might easily be destroyed by cutting ditches across 
 them, where, as is generally the case, they are of earth, or by felling trees 
 across at favourable places. 
 
 From the tops of the passes, the country westward is seen to be covered 
 by jungly hills, for at least 15 miles in every direction, and water is 
 scarce, generally early in the dry season. The low country called Kokun, 
 or Daung, is inhabited by Bheels and Coolies scattered over the face of the 
 country in open villages in no way protected, nor even surrounded by 
 hedges. 
 
 The ghats north of Rhowra, as Morkurra, Hudgur, &c. all lead to Soorn- 
 gana, {vide VII) and those south of it, as Bunwur, Pullasur, Aumbana, 
 Oossessara, and Gaundoola, lead to Bowra . Wunassy, Wagdeo, Muha- 
 JEE, SowL or Sawal, Ambegund andBuLSAY, lead to Peint, Kurukwal, 
 Futihpoor, Belaulgurh, Oomergaon, &c. Peepree, Gaundwassy foot 
 PATH, Jam,Deol, Gorky, Ooranu, Jaumla, Agsar and Wagayra. 
 Ghats, all of which lead to Hursool, and are rather steeper than the former, 
 and pass through a country equally hilly. Of all these ghats, the Sowl, 
 Ambegund, and Wagayra, are the easiest. The Madras Pioneers were 
 employed in 1818, in repairing the Sowl Ghat. 
 
 The low country affords timber in abundance and some teak, which is 
 brought up by coolies through these passes for sale at the adjacent towns 
 of Nassick, Trimbuck, Dindory, &c. BooRuj, and Ambooly Ghats, are 
 both of easy descent, and may be made fit for guns ; they lead to the 
 town of Jowaur, belonging to the Jowaur Rajah. 
 
 The country through which all the roads lead below the ghats is so 
 completely covered by hills and forests as to be impassable in every di- 
 rection, but by the roads, which are generally very bad. 
 
 Seer Ghat, South of Trimbuck, leads from Deogaon above to 
 Khundala below ; it is on the principal road from Basseen to Trimbuck, 
 and is used by country carts proceeding to the annual jatra at the reputed 
 source of the Godavery. The Bunjaras, who proceed by the Peepree ghat, 
 as the most direct road, prefer this road on their return with their cattle 
 laden. 
 
List of Ghats in the Syhadree Range, <§t. 145 
 
 The TuLL GHAT, (t)2c?e LIV.) is easy and practicable for carts, and is 
 the most eligible for troops moving in the direction of Nassik from Bombay. 
 The Pioneers are now at work (1826) making the road from hence to 
 Bhewndy. .'^^^^ ^^^^' y^^€^ ^ r^^^-..^^<. ^^.a^-^r^ '^^ ^^'"""^''""^""':;t!l>^^2^ 
 
 Peepree ghat, or Peepree Bhor ghat, leads from Wassula, 10 
 miles from the bottom, on the road to Bhewndy, to Peepree, 3 miles from 
 the top, on the road to Nassik. The approach below is a very hard stony 
 road, through a hilly and rather jungly country. The ghat is of easy 
 ascent, and might be made a very good one. This is one of the usual 
 >roads from Nassik to Basseen, Kallian, &c. From Peepree to Nassik is 
 about 32 miles : Bhewndy is 46m. 7f. from the top of the ghat. 
 
 The Goonda and Owutta foot ghats, lead up to Koolung from 
 the Kokun. 
 
 Mainda, or Mendha ghat, leads from Dholkhum by Hinglood at 
 the bottom, to Ghatgurh, a little beyond the top of the p^ss, and thence 
 to Rajoor. The lower part of the road is good, but the upper is precipitous 
 stony and dangerous for cattle ; it is, however, a good deal frequented by 
 Bunjaras. There is a little bad water procurable about half way up, and a 
 tank at the top. From Dholkhum to Hinglood, which is a little off the 
 road, is 3 miles : thence to the top of the ghat is 3| miles. 
 
 CfiooNDA OR Choonda-Mendha ghat, 3 miles east of Dhol- 
 khum, leads from the deserted village of Choonda at the bottom of the 
 ghat to Ghatgurh above. The ascent is about 3 miles, and is only- 
 passable for men or unladen cattle. It was formerly frequented, but is now 
 so bad as to be entirely discontinued as a bullock road. The fort of Rut- 
 tunpoor is about 6 miles from the top. 
 
 Malsej ghat, north, below Joodhun, {vide IV). 
 "^Nana ghat, south, below Joodhun, is about 12 miles from Jooneer. -f *<^ .rv*^ 
 From Ghatgurh, which is the petta of Joodhun, to Wysakra, a small village ^'^^^^/^ 
 below the ghat, is about 5 miles. The road is frequented by Bunjaras in ^-^ c^cx^-yx 
 the dry season, but in the rains a part of the road, on which the rock has ~^^^--<^-'^^ 
 been cut into steps, is dangerous for the passage of cattle. A considerable 
 distance is saved by this route from Kallian to Ahmednuggur, but 
 a native, having baggage and followers, would in any season prefer the 
 circuitous route of the Khandala Bhor ghat, to any of these passes. Dus- 
 sye is 4 miles from the bottom. 
 
 BoRUNDA foot GHAT, Icads up to Byramgurh. 
 
 The Owappah and Kontee, both foot ghats below Gomehgurh : the 
 first has been stopped up. Dussye is 5 or 6 miles from the foot of it. 
 
 Ghar, OoMRAH, AND GooMAR GHATS, leading up to Seedgurh hill 
 fort, are only accessible to foot passengers. From the fort to the flou- 
 rishing village of Narrolee below is about 2 miles. The distance from 
 Karroiee to Morebaur, {vide XCVII.) is 10 miles measured. ^.6^,,^,^ • i 
 
 RuNSHiL, OR Bheema Shunkur GHAT, by this route mussaula of all yr^y^'</y^ 
 kinds, oil and jaggry, are transported to Panwell ; and the cattle in return ^^^;^;^;^[;^^ 
 take up salt for the Deckan. 
 
 KouLACHADUR AND Nakindadur GHATS, for uuladen cattle, and 
 AuDURADUR, for men only, lead up to Khotelgurh, or meet there. From 
 the fort to Amboolee below is 2J miles ; from the latter to Sheloo, {vide X.) 
 via Pahtrudge, is Yl\ miles. 
 
14^ List of Ghats in the S^hadree Range, ^c. 
 
 Saola ghat, foot-path. It is by this ghat that the principal part of 
 the timber from the Konkan is brought up to be forwarded to Poona The 
 supposed amount of it annually is 50,000 rupees. 
 
 KoLUMBA GHAT, frequented by laden cattle with batty and salt from 
 Kalian, is 2 miles south of Khotelgurh : close to this ghat is another (name 
 unknown) difficult and precipitous foot path, b\ which a light detachment 
 of the 4th Re2:iment ascended to Englud and surprized a party of Coolies' 
 in February 1818. 
 
 KussooR GHAT, (vide X.) The road is passable for bullocks laden, 
 winds a good deal, and is about 2i miles long. 
 
 The Raj Mauchee ghat, Cvide XCIX.) leads from the fort of the same 
 name to the small village of Khurroundee below, situated on the Oolassa 
 river. The ghat is said to be 4 miles long by a winding roady and only 
 accessible to cattle lightly laden, and foot passengers. 
 
 Bhor or Bore ghat, (vide I.) from Poona to Panwell is a little steep 
 near the top and bottom ; but it is a good made road the whole way. 
 
 Between the Peepree Bore ^hat and Khandala Bore ghat there are, besides 
 those above enumerated, the following pathways, or rather durras, which are 
 ,.-A^^^,^ accessible, with some difficulty to foot passengers; the Konoo, Hindoola, 
 f^Vtl^ M?injer, Strombo, Ambolee, Pootychee and Missnya.

 and tedious road. 
 
 AmBANUL GHAT. 
 
 BoPEE OR BoupA GHAT. The first ascent is tolerably good, the latter part 
 
 steep, rocky and difficult. Several gentlemen lately have gone through 
 
 this ghat, and report favourably of it. Dywaree is 3J coss from Sewtur 
 
 near the bottom ; and Yeloo, {vide XXIV.) via Koorjee and Sewapoor, is 22 
 
 miles from top, over a good road, in which however there are two small 
 
 khinds. 
 
 ^^> ^ WuRRUNDA GHAT, is N. 80^ E. 13 milcs from Mhar, and leads into 
 
 ^^^^^^^'-'Heerdos Mawul,belongmg to the Punt Suchew, and then along the Neera

 w aJJI^ tuUa, where there are but a few huts, is 2m. 5f. the ascent is only 6 furlongs. 
 
 't'Ti^. It is steep near the top, and difficult for cattle. This is the lowest part in the 
 
 <<*^>^«/Indyadree range. After ascendin^: the ghat, there remains 6 miles of road

 The Skwta ghat, leadins: from Mhar to Poona, is about 8 miles N. W. 
 of the Wurrunda ghat. It is passable to cattle, and miij:ht be made so to 
 carts ; but the road from the top is extremely bad for 4 miles.

 The Par GiiAT, (t;2c?e LXXXVIII.) on a usual route from Sattaraby 
 Waee to Bankoot and Mhar. At a disrance of about 20 miles, on the road 
 is the small village of Kooroolshee, situated at the bottom of a small but 
 •difficult glial, which bears its name. Having iscended this ghat, xht road 
 Jeads along table land for 6 or 7 miles to the Rurtoondee ghat, at the foot ^ 
 
 of which you cross the Koeen a river to Par, which is cojisidered the pettalj ^ /^ 
 of Partubii-urh, a fort^^e^nile on the t^TTlie top^ of the ghat is about/'' '*' "^^ 
 
 3 miles from Par. The descent to Kinnaseer is about 4 miles,^and Phol .d- /^^^(^ 
 poor, on the right bank of the Sawutree, is about 8 miles from the latter '.^TX^T/^ 
 place. This route is frequented by Bunjaras bringing grain and salt to 
 ;Sattara from the Konkan. 
 
 HuTLOT GHAT, scveu miles south of Par ghat; it leads from the fort 
 of Mukrungurh to Kher in the Kokan, but is little frequented. After des- 
 cending, the road follows the course of the Jugbooree river about 9 miles, 
 to Amboolee at the bottom of the erhat of that name; neither the ghat nor 
 the approach to it are practicable for carriages. 
 
 Amboolee ghat. (i;ic?e LXXV.) This ghat is N. W. from Sattara ; the 
 Toad is not a good one, and near the top it is extremely precipitous 
 
 North Teura ghat, the ghat is about 23^ miles from Sattara, and leads 
 ■direct down to Chiploon, which is about 43 mdes, road distance, from Sat- 
 tara. It is hardly practicable for loaded cattle, althous^h used by Bunjaras 
 •and others. The road between Teura at the bottom of the irhat, and Chip- 
 loon, about 14 miles: it is very bad ; and when the ghat has been passed, and 
 the Quina river crossed, the Ossarla ghat is to be ascended- The road then 
 leads along table land 4 or 5 miles, to the Neetrul ghat, which you descend 
 to Neetrul a village about 1 1 miles from Sattara. 
 
 KooMBHUULi'E GHAT, {vide LXIX.) is about 13^ miles S. of Teura 
 .ghat, and is the best in this part of the range. The ghat is winding and 
 long, but the ascent in consequence is easy; it has lately been repaired, and 
 is the high road from the coast to Kurarh, Sattara, Sholapoor and other 
 places. 
 
 Note, — It is of little consequence that the passes into a country are easy, if the further 
 advance therein is worse than flie pass itself. The country between the Syhadree range 
 and the sea, comprehended between Goa and Surat, including the Warree country and the 
 Attaveesee, is remarkable for the badness of its roads. 
 
 From Vi'njTorla to Aptah there are neither carls nor cart roads, except in the immediate 
 vicinity of Mahvan, Rutnageery, and other principal places, but as far as the Sawutree there 
 are cattle tracts, or pathways, which usually pursue the most direct line over arid 
 rocky uplands, and across cultivated valleys, in which the roads are usually ploughed up 
 during the season of cultivation. From the Sawutree to Aptah and onto Panwell, h 
 jungly country, the road often winds between hill or dingle and ie'n.. From Aptah to Surat 
 is a cart road, but only the small cart drawn by one pair of i)iillocks is used. From Tan- 
 nali two roads lead to Surat, one along the beach, which is perhaps the best of the two in 
 the rains, and the other running a short distance inland: they join at Sucheen, 10 miles 
 from Surat. But roads along tlie Konkan are comparatively but little used by either troops 
 or traders ; the first consists of an occasional relief battalion once a season, and sea 
 carriage is usually preferred by IheJatter.

 The difference between this route and that by the Teura g^hat is about 
 30 miles ; yet the Koombhurlee is to be preferred for the passage of 
 troops, while the Teura, when despatch is essential, may be chosen by the 
 traveller with little bao:gag:e. 
 
 MuLLA GUAT, (firfe LXXXVIII.) is about 9 miles S. of Koombhurlee 
 ghat, and leads from Kurarh to Makhjoon in the Konkan. Mulha Pet, about 
 2 miles from the top of the ghat, is about 30 miles due W. from Kurarh. 
 From Mulha, descending winds the ghat, which is about 3 miles in extent, 
 to Puchamba, is nearly 9 miles : thence the road alontr the banks of the 
 Gurhnee river about 14 miles, to Makhjoon, {vide XXXI and LXXXV.) 
 which is 16 miles due E. of Veejyegurh and Jyegurh, both on the Shas- 
 tree river. The fort of Pritchitj;urh is 4 miles S. of the Mulha ghat, and 
 Buerogurh is 4 miles N. 
 
 South Teura ghat, about 6 miles south of Mulha ghat, and 13 miles 
 from Sun2:umeshwur, at the junction of the Sonvee and Shastra(or Jyegurh) 
 rivers. The fort of Pritchitgurh is on the left going towards the bottom of 
 the ghat from the village of Teura. The ascent is exceedingly steep for 2 
 miles; the road beins: up the rocky bed of a torrent. From Teura at the 
 bottom, to Seedeshwur(6Jm. from the top,) is 11m. 6f. The road from the top 
 is tolerably level until within l|miles of Seedeshwur, then leads down a 
 difficult little ghat. Seedeshwur is about QQ miles from Meritch, and the 
 road all the way is along the course of the Warna river to its junction with 
 the Kistna near Meritch. 
 
 KoNDHEE GHAT, is 5\ miles south of Teura ghat and about 8J miles 
 S. 70° E. from l>Q^ff nxook, {vide LXXXV.) The village of Kondhee at the 
 bottom of the ghat is only about 4| miles from Chandil at the top ; but the 
 ghat is a bad one. From Chandil to Loand, on the Warna river, 
 is 5 miles more, and here the road is joined by that from Seedeshwur. 
 The fort of Mymuntgurh is 2|miles south of the Kondhee ghat. 
 
 Amba ghat, is about 11 miles south of Kondhee ghat, and leads from 
 Dewurook by Sakurpa Pet to Mulkapoor, and thence to Meritch or to 
 Kolapoor {vide LXXXIX.) The hill fort of Veeshalgurh is about 14 
 miles S. E. from Dewurook. It is separated from the main range of the 
 ghats by a deep chasm, excepting at the gateway, where it is connected by 
 a small neck of land. On the north side is the Dewurraghat, and on the south 
 the Prubhaolee; the first is impracticable for cattle, and the latter is 
 seldom used but by travellers going to the fort, which is the residence of 
 the Prethee Needhee of the Kolapoor Raja. 
 
 The Annuskoora or Ankoosra ghat, {vide XXVIII, ) is 9 miles 
 S. of Veeshalgurh, and is on the direct road from Kurarh to Malwan. This 
 is also the usual road to Rajapoor, Khur^putan, &c. from Meritch. It winda. 
 a good deal through the hills, is a good road, about 3 miles in length, and 
 paved with large rough stone in a few places where it is rather steep* 
 
List of Ghats in the Syhadne Range, S^c. 14^ 
 
 About tbe centre of the ghat is a chokey for collections on the traffick of 
 this road. A little labour might make this ghat practicable for guns, 
 but the approach to it in the Kokun is very bad. From Ankoosra at 
 the top there is a good cart road, via Mulkapoor to Kurarh. KarawauUy 
 near the bottom affords a few of the usual sup{)lies. 
 
 Kajurda ghat, is on the direct road from Kolapoor to Rajapoor in the 
 Kokun: the road was formerly passable to laden cattle, but is now stopped 
 up, in order that the customs, it is said, may be collected at other sihats. 
 
 Bawura ghat, a road for foot passengers, also frequented by laden cattle 
 going from Kolapoor to Rajapoor. 
 
 Sewgurh ghat, {vide XC.) leads from Kolapoor to Asheeamuth and 
 Malwan. Guns have, in former times, it is said, been brought up this way, 
 but it is now out of repair. 
 
 The Ponda or Phonda ghat, {vide XXIX.) Some years ago a detach- 
 ment with artillery descended this ghat to Warree; the road was then made 
 practicable for ordnance, but it does not appear to be much frequented at 
 present. With little labour it may be put in good repair. I he approach 
 from the east is by a steep ascent of about 200 yards, and passing a short 
 way alouii a ridge of the mountain the ascent is gradual for about two miles 
 into the Konkan. There is much jungle and forests of large timber on the 
 hills. This ghat is in the direct line from Sholapoor to Malwan. 
 
 Ghotgay ghat, (tide XC.) leads from Kolapoor or Meeruj to Malwan. 
 The road is bad near the top, but laden cattle frequent it. From Ghotgay 
 near the bottom is 4 miles to Injaleea near the top. 
 
 Rangna OR Pritchitgurh on\T,{yide XC.) is frequented by laden 
 cattle from Kolapoor to Malwan. The fort, which protects the passage, 
 gives name to the iihat. 
 
 Hunoomunt or Tulklt ghat, {vide XC.) 
 
 Ambooly or Parpooly gh at, by which Colonel Dowse's force descended 
 to invest Raree. At that time the pioneers of the force in three days made 
 it very passable for small guns. The whole descent is stony, and in no 
 part very steep ; but in consequence of several zigzags in the road great 
 difficulty would be experienced in getting down, or dragging up heavy 
 ordnance. At the top of the ghiit is a large well, near which is a small 
 piece of ground to encamp. At the bottom is a stream of fine clear 
 water, and a small open space to encamp near the chowry. The top is 20 
 miles from Ajerah on the road to Belgaon and to Kolapoor. From the 
 deserted village of Parpooly near the bottom, to the Ambooly pagoda and 
 custom house near the top is 5| miles. The Hurneassy river, is crossed at 3| 
 miles near its source, on the road to Kusbu Ajera. Merchants from Goa. 
 to the Deccan seem to prefer this road. 
 
 Ram GHAT, (vide LXXXII and LXXXIII.) is the great pass to the upper 
 country from Goa to the S. W. and from Warree, Vingoila and Malwan 
 to the W. Chandgurh is one march from it on the great road to Aj^a^ 
 Kolapoor and Poona, whilst Patna {vide LXXXII.) is similarly situated on 
 the eastern road to Belgam. The approach to the ghaut both above and be- 
 low is a made road, the ascent easy, and passable for every description of wheel 
 carriages. The general breadth of the new road finished in March 1821 
 is 30 feet. The tract of country below the ghat is wild, hilly, and 
 covered with large trees, clumps of bamboos, and thick underwood, with 
 partial cultivation in the valleys, ^^ y. y^

 GHATS IN THE INDYADREE RANGE, 
 
 FROM ADJUNTA WESTWARD * 
 
 The Ad junta ghat, {vide LXV.) is the only one passable to carts in 
 this part of the range. The old road by the gateway is much broken up, and 
 another nearly as bad for carts is more frequented. East of the principal 
 road, and within a few miles, are pathways, called the Bore, Tondtifjoor and 
 Mues ghats, passable to men only; and the Buel g^hat passable to laden 
 'cattle. These pathways all lead through Wankry to Bokerdun. 
 
 GowTULA'GHAT, {vide LV.) leads from ATws^a Chaleesgaon to Kunnur. 
 
 Ranjun GHAT, for foot passengers. 
 
 Amba ghat, passable to all sorts of cattle, is on the road from the town 
 of Chaleesgaon in Khandes to Kunnur, {vide LV .) Sewapoor, a^new 
 village, is at the bottom in Khandes, and Oopula, a village of the Nizam's, 
 is at the top. 
 
 Gun FiSH GHAT, is capable of being made a good road for cattle, but it has 
 not been frequented of late years. 
 
 HuNMUNT GHAT, is described ae a good cattle road, but is not frequent- 
 ed. Goreegaon, a new village, lies at the bottom. It leads from Jattegaon 
 to Kunnaura fort. 
 
 SooL GHAT, a foot path leading from Dairy to Kasha Jattegaon. The 
 distance between these places is 6 miles. 
 
 Peepulgaon ghat, has been shut up for 20 years, and if opened 
 would only admit of foot passengers. 
 
 KuTEELNATor Peepree, PuRDuiiER or Takia, and PeeppvEe ghats, 
 Trom the village of Dekoo, above, roads lead to these three passes. The 
 west road, which leads to Peepree in Khandes, 8 miles from Jattegaon, 
 is practicable for horses and loaded bullocks ; the next leads to Purduree 
 IdcIow the ghat ; the third presents the longest road, and like the others, 
 is practicable for cattle. All these ghats begin to descend from narrow 
 openings, and wherever they lead between precipices on the one hand, and 
 rocky heights on the other, offer great facility for defence. 
 
 Kasaree ghat, or KASARBARKE,(^;«>;?e XXXVIU.) Three miles west of 
 the Purduree ghat the upper ran^ie of hills suddenly disappear, the country 
 becomes more open, and the ascent into Khandes much easier, or less 
 steep. This is the principal pass from the Deccan into Khandes. There 
 are three roads four miles asunder, leading from the villages of Waukla, 
 Bhaudly, and Tunwarra. The two first are best for guns, and alt02:ether 
 are very easy, but in fact the whole country, extending nearly five miles, 
 aflfords plenty of paths and roads. 
 
 Somtana ghat, is a gun road of very easy descent from Mainda- 
 poor by Somtana to Taunkly. Between the two first places a cart road 
 joins from the Kusba of Rajapoor, whence there is a path for men and 
 cattle by Bowry village, also to Taunkly in Khandes. 
 
 Rajapoor ghat» a gun road from Rajapoor to Saegaon and thence to 
 Wudaly. A cart road leads also by Parnella to Saegaon. The whole f;rce 
 
 * I have no account of the ghats between the Adjunta and Gowtulhi, but I conclude 
 there are some. For a description of the range west of Adjunta, see Hauiiltou's Hindoostan, 
 vol. II, p. 107. 
 
List of Ghats in the Indyadree Range, S^c, 151 
 
 of the country from Baudly to Maindapoor, about 12 miles, although it has 
 no marked roads, is easy of descent. 
 
 LuRsiNGEE GHAT, a Cattle road. Here the hills have a much more per- 
 pendicular descent, and continue steep to the Unky-Tunky Pass, which 
 is a good and open gun road. Between this pass imd the Lursingee there 
 are the following, Mohaigaon, Tekooe, and Hauree, all of which are 
 steep, and only practicable for foot passengers, or unloaded cattle, and 
 even to them with difficulty. These passes lead from Maligaon to the 
 villages from which they take their names; and the fourth, leading from 
 Chandgaon to Banjeroowary is better than the others. 
 
 At the foot of Kowtrea fort, the hills leave an openingof about four miles, 
 the whole of which is nearly flat ; and the country has only a gentle decli- 
 vity till it joins Khandes. Between Kowtrea and Chandore the principal 
 separations in the hills are, first at Boargaon, leading from Khandiiaoii to 
 Chandore; the second, which is a gun road, leads from Koondulgaon to 
 Chandore; the third from Kandgaon to Neembaytee by Dhureylee. 
 
 Chandore ghat. Ihe following passes are united in the road which 
 leads by Chandore, having only that opening to the Deccan; first the Raura 
 ghat, a gun road from Chandore to Chinchwa; second the Marerbarry, from 
 Nandoo Taik to Darjrour; third, Moordar pass, from that village, and from 
 Naundoor Taik to Waukarry; fourth. Chinch Baree, from the small bheel 
 village of Cheezbarry to Waukarry, Kusba below, i he three last are only 
 fit for cattle. 
 
 Geernar Baree and Jarry Baree, a cart road. From this to the 
 westward the character of the passes is changed ; and the beaten tracks are 
 practicable ; the mountains between them being impassable even to men. 
 
 BowRA Baree barely passable for cattle, leading from Kheldury above, 
 to Bowra below, is narrow and confined by steep hills. 
 
 WuDALA Baree, Katchin Baree, and Markinda Barre, are of the 
 same kind as the Bowra. There is also a foot path between Markinda and 
 Chuttersingee leading from Bhautora to Bhowany pagoda on Chuttersineee 
 and to two small villages named Peepree, and from thence through a 
 long dreary and wild country to Wurkaira. 
 
 Eewotta Baree, leads direct from Won (vide LVIII.) to Abhowna, and 
 is the best of those from Chandore. and consequently is most used. Carts 
 pass it, though with difficulty, although it is good for cattle and camels. 
 Between this and the Rhowra ghat, which descends into the Kokun, are 
 the following small passes, practicable for foot passengers and unladen bul- 
 locks ; first Korally foot path, from Korally to Dheelwary; second the 
 Lodai pass, a narrow and circuitous route to Abhowna, barely 
 passable to cattle; third Boorbod; and fourth Bheel ghat, leading direct 
 to Hudgur, thence down to the Kokun by the Mcrkura pass. Under 
 the former government all the passes in this part of the country 
 were occupied by armed Bheels. These Bheels escorted people and cattle 
 through the ghats, exacting money for this service, and also defended the 
 country from intruders or other thieves. They can at a short notice 
 collect together 150 or 200 men, who are more civilized than their 
 brethren generally are, living in villages and cultivating lands in and near 
 the passes which they guard, and as such, these Bheels appear worthy of 
 support.

 SAUTPOORA RANGE : 
 
 ( The following is given from native accounts. The relative situation and 
 distance of each pass from the other not known.) 
 
 NuMTEA Cho ghat, foF foot passengcis, is distant 4 coss from Raunee- 
 jpoora(rec?tf CXI.) 
 
 KuTEEBOREE GHAT, is a good road, and if cleared of jungle, would be 
 passable to every description of laden cattle. It leads from the Kusba of 
 Borud or Bordu to Kuteebor, a deserted village at the top, passing Allapoor 
 below. 
 
 Akraunee ghat, leads from Sooltanpoor {vide CXI.) to Dhergaon, It 
 has two paths, the one passable to foot passengers, has Akraunee, a town 
 in ruins, near the top, and the deserted village of Choonakhan below the 
 ghat. The other path, which is passable to horses, has Kulhar (deserted) 
 at the top, and the deserted village of Dhurmpoor at the bottom. 
 
 Chabula ghat, is only a foot path, but would be passable to laden 
 cattle were it cleared of jungle. Perputee is at the top, and Chabula 
 below; both deserted villages. 
 
 DoDEYA Bawa's ghat, is passable to cattle lightly laden, and led 
 horses: below, to th« south, is Alwun; from thence the ascent and descent 
 to Beejlee, on the north side of the range, is 3 coss. This is the ghat 
 called Bowaka in CXI. 
 
 Chhadsulee ghat, being choked up with jangle, is impassable to 
 laden cattle. The ascent is I J coss. The village of Katur is below, and 
 above is Chhadsulee, {vide CXI, there spelled Chaursaylee.) 
 
 BuRWANu or Sookuldewee ghat, is practicable, but a bad road for 
 Cattle. It leads from Sooltanpoor to thetown of Burwanu; the road distance 
 between these places is 50 J measured miles, over a succession of hills ; but 
 it appears to be a usual route from Indore to Surat. 
 
 SiNDWA ghat, {vide LIT.) this ghat leads in three tracts from Kooroond 
 to Sindwa. The tracts called Vindyawasnee, and Nandewur, are cart roads; 
 both strike off from the deserted villa^re of Pullusnair ; and the latter, 
 which has no ascent, passes the deserted villasre of Shapooree. The third 
 tract, which is the one usually pursued, is called Bore ghat, but it is not 
 passable to carts. 
 
 Chachraputee ghat, between Kooroond to the south, and Kurgoond 
 north, is passable to laden cattle. 
 
 Dholee Baree, called also Phurolee Baree, is between Chopra to 
 the south, and Kuriroon to the north; the distance between these places 
 is 29 coss. The ghat is not passable to carts, but is so to every description 
 of laden cattle. By a ghat W. of this, called Dewlee Doogannee, the dis- 
 tance is 2 coss more, but the road is not represented as better; and by 
 another, the Cheermeer ghat, (10 coss from Chopra,) the distance is 3 
 coss more, {vide LI.)

 WHEREAS the authority vested by Regulation VI.I. 1814, in the 
 <iollectors and their native offic€>rs, and in the magistrates and their police 
 officers, to assist in procuring coolies for the purpose of facilitating the 
 march of detachments of troops, or the progress of individual travellers, 
 has operated to encourage the highly injurious practice which prevails, of 
 forcibly pressing certain classes of the inhabitants of the towns and vii- 
 iaofes, under the denomination of bigaries or coolies, for the purpose of 
 carrying baggage or other loads from stage to stage, or from village to 
 village; and whereas the Governor in Council has deemed it expedient 
 to adopt measures for the entire suppression of the said highly objec- 
 tionable practice, the following Rules have been enacted, to have effect 
 throughout the whole of the territories immediately subordinate to the 
 Presidency of Bombay, from the date of their promulgation. 
 
 Such part of the provisions of Regulation Yll. 1814, as authorized the 
 collectors and their native officers, or the magistrates or their police 
 officers, to give their official aid in procuring coolies for the purpose of 
 facilitating the march of troops, or the progress of civil and military 
 officers, or other individuals travelling through the country, either on 
 the public service or their private affairs, is hereby rescinded. 
 
 The practice of pressin^i- or compelling individuals, whether under the 
 denomination of coolies, bigaries, or any other denomination, to carry 
 burthens, either for the public service or for the convenience of private 
 individuals, is hereby positively prohibited; and the several magistrates 
 and j int magistrates are required to adopt all legal means in their power to 
 put an entire stop to the practice in question, by enquirins: fully into all 
 complaints which may be brought before them, and by subjecting persons

 A light vessel is moored between the 
 Prongs and Tull reef during the S. 
 W. monsoon. The rise and fall 
 is only 10 or 12 feet at the cpa- 
 dratures. 
 
 Tide runs longer in the stream than 
 near the shore, velocity 3 knots. 
 
 A ship from Bombay to the north- 
 ward should leave the harbour 
 towards the latter part of the ebb, 
 that she may get west of the 
 reef by the time the flood 
 makes. 
 
 This port, which is in the dominions, 
 of the Rajah of Travancore, in lat. 
 9° 26' N. and long. 76«> 38' E. and 
 is remarkable for the security it af- 
 fords to shipping throughout the 
 year, even in the height of the S. 
 W. monsoon, without the least ap- 
 parent shelter. This is occasioned 
 by the slimy slidginous nature of 
 the soil which forms the anchorage, 
 and possesses the extraordinary 
 property of allaying the heaviest 
 monsoon swell, and smoothing the 
 water in the road during the se- 
 verest squalls. To the southward 
 and southwest the swell gradually 
 decreases from the depth of 7 
 fathoms.

 good harbour, and is safe to ap-

 Sixteen miles west of Mhowa Point. 
 
 Soundings in feet, carefully taken at 
 high and at low water spring tides. 
 Flood runs generally 5| hours and 
 the ebb 6 J, the former about 3 and 
 3i knots per hour, the latter about 
 4| and 4^ knots during the springs, 
 but the tides have not more than 
 half this velocity at the neaps. 
 Rise of the tide at the springs 34 
 and 35 feet ; and at the neaps 26 
 and 27 feet. 
 
 In Surat Road, and in the entrance of 
 the Gulph of Cam bay, southerly 
 winds and blowing weather set in 
 much sooner than at Bombay. It 
 is considered dangerous for ships 
 drawing much water to remain in 
 the road after the middle of April, 
 for in this month and early in May 
 smart southerly winds frequently 
 blow during the springs, particu- 
 larly in the night with the flood 
 tides- Tide ebbs about 5 knots 
 per hour at the anchorage for ship- 
 pins: in 7 or 8 fathoms water. The 
 sands which forni Surat bar are 
 continually changing. 
 
 
 Soundings in fathoms, taken at low 
 water in the neaps, but allowance 
 made for sprin£s. Rise of tide in 
 the springs 16 and 17 feet: at the 
 neaps 9 and 10 feet. Lat. at the 
 fort 22*^ 5& 27" N. 
 
 No bar across the river, but a shoal 
 of rocks S. W. 1 mile from the fort, 
 with 2 feet on it at low water. The 
 channel is about 150 yards wide 
 close to the fort.

 The anchorage in Burka road is by 
 no means good, the ground in 
 general, being a mixture of hard 
 sand, shells, and gravel, with spots 
 of coral rocks, which damage the 
 cables very much. Vessels ought 
 not to remain in these roads on 
 any appearance of blowing wea- 
 ther from either N. E. or S. W. 
 for these winds throw in a very 
 heavy swell, which, added to the 
 bad holding ground, makes it 
 on these occasions an unsafe 
 anchorage : as good a berth as any 
 is in 5 1 fathoms at low water.

 Note.— I have only inserted the latitude and longitudes of places when they differed 
 from Horsburgh's Directions. In the preparation of this table I am principally indebted 
 to Lieutenant J. S. Roe of H. M. S. Tamar, also to the late Lieutenant Robinson, and 
 Lieutenant Houghton, Honourable Company's marine, and others. 
 
 The period of a flux and reflux of the tide being 12 hours and 24 minutes, occasions 
 consequently high water to fall every day 48 minutes later, the time of high water there- 
 fore, at any of the above places, may easily be found if the age of the moon is known. 
 This is facilitated by the following table. 
 
 It may not always occur to the traveller between Bombay and Poona that he should leave 
 Bombay at low water and Panwell at high water. At Panwell, and 1 believe at most of the 
 Bunders high up rivers in the Konhan, the tide turns very soon ; the exact time therefore of 
 high water it is important to know ; and especially where the navigation is long or intricate 
 us from Goregaon, vide XXXII, or Chiploon, vide XXXI, and LXXXV. *

 J\'bf«.— The Hising and Setting of the Moon, varies with the Moon's Latitude, but it may be almost correctly found from Table A. The Moon comes to tlic 
 meridian nearly as much later than the Sun as is marked in Table A opposite to the Moon's Age — Subtracting six Hours would therefore give the time of rising, and adding six 
 Hours, would give the time of setting, nearly. 
 
 In finding the time of High Water at any particular place it is not necessary to have the exact hour of the day on -vhich the Moon changes; it is suSicicut to cuter 
 lable A with the nearest day of the Moon's Age and add the time in the Table to the time of High Water on the day of Jfe^w Moon at the place required.

 EXPLANATION OF TERMS 
 
 OCCURRING IN THIS WORK. 
 
 Pers. Persian. — Mar. Maratta. — Hind. Hindoostani. — Suns. Sunskrit. — 
 Guz. Guzuratee. — Kan. Kanarese, 
 
 Bala ghat, {bala, above), signifies above the ghat, or the country ex- 
 tending in the form of a ghat. — It is applied particularly to the country 
 of the Nizam within his western hills. 
 
 Baree, a narrow pass through mountains ; used in Khandes. 
 
 Bet or Bate, {Mar.) signifies an island ; but is generally applied as a 
 distinguishing name to the island of Shunkodwar in the gulph of Kutch, 
 and to the Lunka, a sacred isle of the Hindoos, famous for the wars of Ram 
 and Rawun : in all probability the island of Ceylon. 
 
 BooDRooG, or BooDROOK, a corruption of Buzoorg {Pers. great), it is 
 aflSxed to the name of a village to distinguish it from a smaller of the 
 same name in the neighbourhood, and which in this case has Khoord, or 
 lesser, affixed to it, as magna and parva in English villages. 
 
 BuLOOTU, or BuLLOTEE, is a term applied to the rights, privileges, 
 and allowances paid by the riyuts in kind, or to the rent free land by which 
 the village servants or officers are remunerated. These servants are here- 
 ditary, and are as follows : the Joshee or astrologer, Gooroo or priest, 
 Sootar or carpenter, Pureet or washerman, Chambhar or tanner, shoe- 
 maker, &c. Koombhar or potter. Lobar or ironsmith, Sonar or goldsmith, 
 Coolee or doer of all work, Ramooshee in some villages, and the Mahar, 
 and Bheel in others, is the watchman, Nahwee barber and link-boy, 
 Moolana or butcher, who is a Mussulman. 
 
 BuNDUR, {Pars, a harbour), a quay or wharf, a place on the sea-side, 
 or on a river where ships or boats load or discharge their cargoes. A 
 turtee bundur is one where there is water at all times to float a vessel. 
 
 Chik, Chika, Heer or Dod, {Kan.) — Dhakta, Dhakla or lahan {Mar,) 
 — Nunnee, {Guz.) affixed to names of villages, signify the lesser 
 
 Chougula, or Chogla, is the Patel's assistant. He generally performs 
 the office of purveyor for travellers. This officer, in Salsette, has a control 
 over the fishermen, and is the medium of communication between Govern- 
 ment and them. 
 
 Chowry, {Chawudi, Mar.) the village town hall, or Patel's durbar. It 
 is sometimes pointed out as a place for travellers in villages where there 
 is no dhurmsala. 
 
 CuTCHERY, {Kuchyuree, Mar.) a court of justice; also the public office 
 in the kusba where the mamulutdar transacts business. 
 
 Des or Desh, {Sans, a country or province) the Maharashtra, and by 
 contraction Maratta desh, includes the Kokun, but the term is more 
 generally applied to the whole Maratta country east of the Syhadree 
 range. In accordance with this the Bramins above the ghats are called 
 
163 E.vplanation of Terms occurring in this Woj^k, 
 
 Deshust, and those of the Konkun Kokunust, each claiming precedence of 
 caste over the other. I am however inclined to concede superiority to the 
 Deshust, as Purresram created the Kokunust by resuscitating the body of 
 a Deshust, which he found floating upon the waters when they receded at 
 his command, from the bottom of the Syhadree Range to their present 
 limits, to enable him to form the country now called Konkun. Des is 
 sometimes applied to a single pergunnah. 
 
 Deshmookh in the Deckan, or Desaee in Guzurat and Carnatic, {Mar. 
 chief of the country) a revenue officer under the late government, gene- 
 rally a hereditary landholder in the district in which he officiated. The 
 celebrated Sevajee was the first Sirdeshmookh, created, I believe, by the 
 emperor Aurun^zebe. This office, which was vested in Sevajee and his 
 successors, entitled the holder to 10 per cent upon the whole clear revenue 
 of the state. Grants or pensions, however, used to be made upon the' 
 Sirdeshmookhee to servants or favourites, as on all other branches of 
 jrovernment revenue, so that much was alienated before it reached the 
 Raja*s treasury. 
 
 Deshpandya, {Mar. writer of the country), accountant or registrar 
 of the district. He acted under the orders of the Deshmookh, and his office 
 also was hereditary. " The Deshmookh or his people assisted in the 
 " executive duties of general management whilst the Deshpandy furnished 
 ** any records that might be called for, and kept an account of the col- 
 ** lections, his Karkoon writing all requisitions to the villagers, dated and 
 " signed in due form by the Durrakdars, ;ind confirmed by the Moamulut- 
 " dar.'^ — Chaplin's Report. 
 
 Dewan, the chief financier or manager in a district ; the minister when 
 applied to an officer near the person of a prince. A Karkoon who has 
 the management of a gentleman's accounts, and supposed to have influence 
 with his master is styled Dewan and Dewanjee by those about him. 
 
 Dewustiian, {Deo a God, Sthan a place,) To those villages the 
 revenue of which is known to be assigned towards the support of some 
 religious establishment, I have annexed dew. to mark them. 
 
 Dhurmsala, {Dhurm charity, Sala a house,) a place in or near a 
 village for the reception of travellers. They are generally either square 
 or oblong rooms open only on one side, where the roof, which is sometimes 
 terraced, is generally supported by pillars of wood or stone. In the walls 
 are excavations for lamps, but there are generally no windows. They 
 are usually very dirty from the smoke and ashes from the tires which the 
 native travellers light round the open square for the purposes of cooking. 
 In the rainy season they are a great accommodation to all ranks, European 
 and native, and by a little more attention in the patels might be rendered 
 tolerably comfortable. The turn of the richer class of natives for building 
 such places might be encouraged by conferring honorary privileges on 
 those who do so.— This article is suggested from Heyne's Tracts. 
 
 DuiiGA, also Musheed, Rouzeea, and Roza, is a place where the tomb 
 of some mussulman saint or peer, is preserved. 
 
 Ghas-dana, {Ghas grass'. Dana grain), the contributions levied by in- 
 vading armies as a compromise for plundering. A tribute under this name 
 was, and, I believe, still is exacted yearly by some of the powerful princes of 
 Central India from their weaker neighbours. 
 
 Gopee-Chundun, {Gopee, the wife of Krishna, Chundun the sandal- 
 
Explanatio7i of Terms occurring in this Work. 169 
 
 woodf considered a sacred tree) is a very fine white clay which natives use 
 in marking the forehead. It is procurable only at Dwarka {vide CLl.) in 
 a tank which Goopee frequented. 
 
 Grassia or GiRASHEE. Weil informed persons seem so divided about 
 this people that I leave it to others to determine what they are. Tlie time 
 is not distant when we believed them to be robbers associated from all 
 castes, Hindoos, Braminsand Mahomedans, who, in former times, had wrest- 
 ed lands from the original proprietors, in the peaceable enjoyment of 
 which they are now fixed too strongly to be dispossessed. Others describe 
 them as landed proprietors resembling the Mokasdars, Wutiundars, or 
 Huqdars in the Deccan ; at the same time as a warlike caste, who, if injured, 
 leave their homes, and committing depredations on the country, obtain 
 thereby the appellation of robbers. 
 
 GosAENs and Byragees, are both Hindoo religionists, but of very dif- 
 ferent descriptions. The first are worshippers of Mahadeo; are forbidden to 
 marry; are occasionally soldiers, traders or mendicants : in the latter pro- 
 fession they travel in large bodies through the country, and compel the vil- 
 lages on their route to support them : violent contests sometimes take place 
 when the mendicant troop is large, and the village is too poor to bear their 
 exactions; but it always ends in the severe castigation of the villagers. This 
 violence is, I conclude, not authorized where British rule is established, but 
 these sturdy beggars fail nowhere in obtaining a supply equal to their wants 
 by working on the prejudices of the natives, where they cannot exercise 
 violence. It is said Bajeerao had 7,000 of them as soldiers when the war 
 broke out in 1817, and that some hundreds fell in the battles of Khirkee, 
 Poona and Koraigaon. There are many different sects of Gosaens, who are 
 distinguished by dress or appearance; one of the sects go about in puris 
 naturalibuSy and besmeared with ashes. Byragees are worshippers of Ram 
 and Lukshmee, some of them marry, some pursue the profession of culti- 
 vators, but live chiefly as mendicants: they are more respectable than the 
 Gosaens in appearance, have a much more pleasing expression of counte- 
 nance, and 1 should be inclined (exceptions of course) to give them credit 
 for great kindness of disposition. The devotees of both orders keep up the 
 succession to their property by chelas or disciples, who originally belonged 
 to other castes of Hindoos purchased when children, and they have seldom 
 reason to regret the change to the roof of their adopted father. The best 
 account of these devotees, and an examination of the origin of all the known 
 sects of Hindoo religion, or rather Hindoo systems of philosophy, is to 
 be found in ** Ward's View of the Hindoos." 
 
 •Iageer, a division of country or a cerrain number of villages granted 
 by the government to an individual for the raising and maintenance of a 
 quota of troops, but sometimes for his personal expenses only, the first is 
 called fuoj-surinjam in the Deccan, and the latter zat-surinjam. 
 
 Jatra or Yatra, (Mar.) is the periodical assembly of pilgrims at the 
 temple of some god. A holy festival. 
 
 Jheel or Jeel, a tank, lake, perhaps most properly a morass. 
 
 Khadee or Kharee, a creek : it also means salt or brackish. 
 
 Khind, a small ghat or pass, a break in a ran^e of hills. It generally 
 designates a place where there are hills on each side of the road, though 
 tiiere may be neither ascent nor descent. 
 
 Khoren or Khora, a dingle or valley open only on one side. The 
 
] 70 Explanation of Teims occurrhig in this Work, 
 
 precipitous side of the hills formint^ the Khora, or rather the angle wher» 
 the hills join, which is always a watercourse during: rain, is called a durra. 
 A durra is sometimes passable to woodcutters, or other sojourners in the 
 forest, but the name is not applied to a pass; though the durra between 
 Malligaon and Dhoolia (vic?eXin.)is passable to carts. 
 
 Koss or Coss. The Koss from the Nerbudda nearly as far as the Kistna 
 above the ghats, may be computed at somewhat less than two miles. At 
 Kurarh it may be estimated at 2| miles, encreasing progressively thence till 
 it attains the length of 3 miles at Belgam. In the Southern Konkan about 
 Bankoot, the koss exceeds two miles, and at Malwan it is fully three; and 
 the koss-bhur four miles. In Gujerat it is 1 J mile, and from Loonawarra 
 and Palanpoor it encreases from 2 to 2^ miles towards Rajpootana. 
 In Kateeawar it encreases from 2 miles to 2| as it approaches Kuich. 
 
 KuiiNUM or KooLKURNEE, {Kool, a cultivator y Mar.) The villa";© at;- 
 countant for government register of ploughs and cultivators, and all inha- 
 bitants paying government taxes. 
 
 A KusBU, is the largest mouza of each turuf, and the market town of the 
 division. 
 
 A JViouzA, is a village having its own municipal officers, who are all here- 
 ditary. These are, for goverimient, the patel or mayor; koolkumee or 
 kurnum, the town clerk; and the chougoula; and for the village the 12 
 bullotee, which see above. 
 
 A MuzRA or Waree, Para or Pada, is a hamlet dependent upon a 
 mouza. 
 
 MuTH or MuREF, is the residence of Jungums, Gosaens, Byranees, &c. 
 The Moosulman terms that correspond, areTukea, Khankea, Soumia. 
 
 MuwuL or Mawul, {the setting sun), means generally the country be- 
 tween the level of the Deccan and the ghats, or between Poona and Sattara 
 and the setting sun. Vide Desh, as above. 
 
 MuNDUL, (a circle)^ a division of country, and the Mundloee is the chief 
 officer thereof. Oka-mundel, Gurrah-mundel, &c 
 
 Naka, (Mar.) a place where streets or roads cross. Generally the 
 place fixed upon as a custom station. 
 
 Pagoda, a corruption by the Portugueze of Bootkuda, (Booty an idol, 
 and Kuda, corruption of KhanOy a housCy Pers.) temple of an idol. 
 
 Patel, the hereditary local manager of a village. His duty is to see that 
 the government dues are realized, and he is the medium of communication 
 between the villagers and government. The descendants of Patels tena- 
 ciously retain the title of Patel, from an idea that it gives them consequence. 
 But a traveller should know, that the Mooqudum Patel only enjoys the rights 
 and privileges of the office, and as such is the properly responsiljle person. 
 
 Pall, a yearly payment made by many villages in Katteeawar, in 
 former times, to the Meyannas, for exemption from visits of their ma- 
 raudino: parlies. 
 
 A Para or Waree, a hamlet; used in the Konkan and Gujerat; same as

 first only has properly this meaning; the second, Soobha, is properly the 
 rule over the Prant. 
 
 RuN,(Pers. Ran, a desert), this name is particularly applied to two ex- 
 tensive morasses, the one separatinp: Guzerat from Katteeawar, and the otiier 
 Kntch from Mooltan and the N. W. boundary of Gujerat.

 through the Post Office, when they exceed 25 tolas weight, will be sent by

 Packet is of importance, in which case the officer transmitting it is required 
 to superscribe the word ** Despatch" on the envelope, which will occasioa 
 it to be forwarded by the letter mail. 
 
 5th. — When the number of letters received for transmission at one 
 time may be such as would render the bulk or weight of the mail incon- 
 venient, the Postmaster General, or his Deputies at Out-stations, are 
 authorized to detain a proportion of them for one day only ; but those oa 
 which the word " Despatch " is superscribed are not to be detained.

 by 3, with short envelopes, and unaccompanied by any letter or writing 
 beyond the usual address. 
 
 7th. — ^No Post Office Packet shall be opened between one Station and 
 another, unless a competent authority be present, or under circumstances 
 of an urgent public nature, in which case the officer who opens, it must 
 see it carefully closed again, and afterward address a letter to the Postr 
 master General, explaining the circumstances which occasioned the 
 measure.' 
 
 8th. — No Letter or Packet delivered into any Post Office shall be returned 
 without an official application in writing from the writer of the letter,

 SECTION II. 
 
 Rules respecting Inland Postage, 
 
 Ist. — All Letters bearing Postage addressed to persons at stations where 
 there is a Post Office shall be paid for at the time of despatch, or on 
 receipt, at the option of the person transmitting them. 
 
 2nd. — The charges of Inland Postage are to be levied agreeably to the 
 following progressive scale for single letters : 
 
 For every distance not exceeding 30 miles 2 annas ; for every further 
 distance not exceeding 20 miles 1 anna additional ; above 50 miles and 
 not exceeding 80 miles 4 annas; above 80 and not exceeding 120 miles 
 6 annas; above 120 and not exceeding 170 miles 6 annas; above 
 170 and not exceeding 230 miles 7 annas ; above 230 and not exceedin2: 
 300 miles 8 annas, after which the Postage encreases at the rate of one 
 anna for every hundred miles. 
 
 A Single Letter not to exceed in weight 1 tola: a Double 2 tolas: a 
 Treble 3 tolas: a Quadruple 4 tolas, and so on : the rate of postaje on 
 a Single Letter being added for every additional tola to the extent of 
 25 tolas, to which weight Inland Letters and Packets are limited. 
 
 3rd. — The rate of Postage of a Single Letter shall be levied on all Regis- 
 ters, Vouchers, Parcels of Law Papers, Newspapers or Pamphlets (sub- 
 cribed as such) transmitted inland, not exceeding four tolas in weight ; 
 and the same charge shall be superadded on every additional four tolas 
 as far as 25 tolas. 
 
 4th. — All Letters or Parcels, covering Company's paper, ought to be 
 registered at the Post Office, and sealed in presence of the Postmaster 
 General, or his Head Assistant. 
 
 5th. — The Postage marked on Letters must always in the first instance 
 be paid, and persons thinking themselves overcharged will afterward ob- 
 tain redress by a representation, officially, to the Postmaster General. 
 
 6t_h. — All Letters refused by the party to whom they are addressed, or 
 where the party to whom they are addressed cannot be found, and all 
 Ship Letters on which the Inland Postage has not been paid, should be 
 returned to the office from whence they were despatched; and the writer 
 or the person who brought them to the office should be required to pay 
 postage both to and from the place of address. 
 
 7th. Should the writer of a Returned Letter refuse to pay the Postage 
 
 due on it, the Postmaster is authorized to detain all future Letters to such 
 person's address until the demand in question shall be liquidated; the 
 same rule is applicable on all other occasions of refusal to pay postage. 
 
 jYote. The iadistinct manner in which persons sometimes address Letters lead to their 
 
 being sent occasionally in a wrong direction. It cannot be expected that a Post Office 
 Clerk can be acquainted with every place in India, and much less in Europe, it is therefore 
 recommended on all occasions to add the name of the province or country in which a 
 place is situated.— Co/w//»/er.

 ture of their respective Commanding Officers. — Public Lascars and 
 Dooly Bearers to be considered as entitled to the same privilege. 
 The letters of Patients in the European General Hospital to be franked 
 
 by the Surgeon in charge. 
 The Officers with an asterisk (*) prefixed to their designation in this 
 List, have the privilege of corresponding in a private form, on afFairi 
 unquestionably of a public nature. 
 It is expected that no officer will abuse the indulgence thus afforded to 
 them of obtaining information on their official affairs in a private form, 
 which is sometimes more convenient to them than the prescribed 
 forms of office. And the Honorable the Governor in Council rehes 
 upon the Heads of Offices to whom this privilege is granted, repress- 
 ing any attempt at evasion of Postage on private communications 
 in such a manner as shall discourage repetition of the liberty taken 
 with them. 
 These Letters should be superscribed " Private Service." 
 5th. — All Officers acting under a superior, to superscribe with their 
 signature the words *' By Order." This applies to Secretaries to Boards, 
 &c. and Majors of Brigade. 
 
 6th. — Postmasters and Post Office Writers will exact Postage on all 
 Letters franked by Officers not included in this List, or in which the pre- 
 scribed from of address has not been attended to. 
 
 7th. — Any Officer, whether civil or military, not having the privilege of 
 franking, who may have occasion to address letters, the Postage on which 
 is chargeable to Government, may be indemnified on a representation of 
 the case to the Postmaster General or Deputy Postmasters of Stations, 
 or at his option he may charge the amount of postage in his pay ab- 
 stract, forwarding as a voucher, a list of the letters, specifying the address 
 and dates of despatch for which reimbursement is claimed. 
 
 8th. — In the case of a person not privileged to frank letters, having 
 occasion to address a public officer on subjects connected with his Majes- 
 ty's or the Honorable Company's Services, not having in view his own 
 individual benefit, and there being no officer at hand to frank his letter, 
 it shall pass free of postage on his making a declaration in writing on 
 the envelope to the following effect, attested by his signature: 
 
 *' / declare that the contents under this cover are on the Public Service 
 solely." 
 9th. — When a public officer under Government shall have occasion 
 to correspond with individuals on the subject of transmitting bills of 
 exchange, promissory notes, receipts, or any other description of go- 
 vernment securities, &c. the public officer forwarding the letters shall, in 
 such cases, superscribe on the envelope with his official signature, the 
 words '* bearing Postage.'' And when, vice versa, such letters are ad- 
 dressed by an individual to a public officer, the Postage shall be received 
 from the person delivering the letter at the Post Office. 
 
 10th. — All letters from subordinate officers to their respective Boards 
 are to be addressed to the Board, and not to the Secretary, who is how- 
 ever to frank all letters from the Board in the form before directed, and 
 all letters to the other public officers are to be addressed to the head 
 of the office, and not to any subordinate officer in it. 
 
 11th. — There being reason to believe that officers privileged »ometimei

 frank packets containing native letters, among which are Sahookars letters, 
 without the Officer so franking being aware of it, it is particularly recom- 
 mended to Officers in such cases to ascertain whether the contents of 
 packets brought to them to frank, are, bona fide, of the description on 
 which Government remits the Postage. The Deputy Postmasters, and 
 Post Office Writers, are instructed to demand that the sender, or receiver 
 of packets, open and shew the contents when they have information, or 
 have reason to believe, that the indulgence of Government has been abused. 
 
 Natt — This List has been prepared by a Committee, but should any officers discover 
 that ibe mention of them has been inadvertently omitted, they are requested to s«'ud 
 the authority under which they claim the privilege of frankmg, to the Postmaster Ge- 
 neral, who, upon being satisfied that it has been granted to them, will cause the neces- 
 sary correctioof to btt ntado in the repriatt of this List in the Code of Post Office 
 Regulations.

408 Rates of Hire. 
 
 A Bullock should carry 1601bs. of any article, and every three bullocks 
 should have one driver. 
 
 Two Tattoos should be accompanied by one driver. 
 
 A Cooly should carry 18 quart bottles of liquor, or 501bs. of any other 
 article. 
 
 By the Poona Bazar Regulations, if the journey occupies a greater num- 
 ber of days than is marked in the column of days (A.) the fare is entitled for 
 each day over as follows. A Haraal 5 annas per diem: each Tattoo 6 annas: 
 each Bullock 2^ annas: and a Cooly 4 annas. 
 
 Carts are seldom procurable to go long journies in the Deccan, so that it 
 is difficult to determine the usual, or average rate of hire. Twelve rupees 
 between Poona and Panwell includes cooly. hire up or down the ghat. 
 
 Camels are occasionally to be hired, but the rate depends upon the wants 
 of the traveller and camel driver. For short journies I have been in the 
 habit of paying a rupee a day in the dry, and about 1 1 rupees in the 
 rainy season. 
 
 In every military bazar there are Mokudums, separately over each class 
 of persons, whose duty it is, on being applied to, to afford assistance from 
 his class. These Mokudums are remunerated by the person to whom he is 
 serviceable, by an established fee for each Hamal, Cooly, Cart, Camel, 
 Tattoo, or Bullock he provides. 
 
 The Rates in this Table are for the dry season : a proportionate advance, 
 seemingly, about 15 percent, is demanded during the wet season. 
 
 It should however be understood, that as people cannot be compelled to 
 engage at these rates, so travellers may engage carriages, cattle or people^ 
 as much under them as they can.

Rates of Hire. 211 
 
 Artificers, in general, work by the month or day, there are liovveTer many 
 instances in which they do not. 
 
 Basket or Matmakers work oftener by the number of baskets or cubits 
 square of mat ; and the price allowed on these articles admits of them 
 earning a fair compensation. 
 
 At Poona(B) the Mokudum who is employed to procure hamals, or the 
 Choudry who brings artisans or workmen (there being a Choudry over 
 each class) is entitled to an established fee for each person he provides. 
 
 Bricklayers and Chupperbunds often contract for their labour, the first 
 by the measure of length called a brass, the latter by the cent square 
 cubits in the superfices. 
 
 There are few good Oil Painters to be met with, but they usually work 
 by the day. 
 
 Tiles are purchased in most places by the thousand ; and the price is as 
 remarkably different as the quality of the materials.' At Poona 3| to 4 
 rupees is the price per 1000 ; while at Panwell very far superior tiles are 
 purchased for 1^ to 1| rupees per 1000. 
 
 Sawyers are of all castes, and work in all ways, agreeably to the local 
 usage of their class. 
 
 Stonecutters usually work by the cubit, and the roughness or fineness 
 of the work determines the price. 
 
 The Weaver, who is only to be found in towns or cities, is paid by a 
 per centage on the value of his goods. 
 
 These tables are prepared in rupees and annas, whereof sixteen annas 
 go to the rupee, or four annas to the quarter rupee. — Though this is not 
 the money of account at the Presidency, it is nevertheless the best suited to 
 Tables which apply to stations throughout the territories adjacent to, and 
 connected with if.

 Posts or stations are divided into distances of 18 miles, or as nearly so as 
 possible, and for each stage 12 Hamals are required ; that is for moderate 
 sized travellers, and each i^amal is entitled to 5 annas for every day he may 
 be absent, whether he carries or not. 
 
 Hamals once posted and recalled to receive at the rate of 5 annas for 
 every day they may be absent. 
 
 One gentleman takin^^up another's Dak, is to pay for two days, namely, 
 the day he is carried, and another to return; but if he delays the people 
 longer of course they must be paid at the rate of five annas for every day 
 so detained. 
 
 Gentlemen travelling with a couple of light baskets of cloth, aBangyman 
 to each set will be required, whose pay is the same as that of a Hamal. 
 
 Hamals cannot be compelled to carry bundles or boxes and work with 
 the Palanqueen also, nor are they to be compelled to carry lanthoins or 
 other lights.

TO THE READER. 
 
 Section L — Copies of the different papers from which this account of Chiefs, 
 or families ofrank\ in Western India, has chiefly been compiled, were transmitted 
 to the Bombay Government upwards of a year ago in order to obtain its sanction 
 for their publication, together with such additional matter as might be collected 
 from the very partial notices, which are to be found on points of this nature, in 
 the public records. However, as any additions, or emendations, which might be 
 derived from that quarter, do not appear to me likely to prove of much importance ^ 
 I have thought it unnecessary to wait for any such aid, and have therefore prin^ 
 ted the work in its present form. What is now published may be depended upon 
 as authentic, except wkere the reader is warned that it might possibly be 
 otherwise * Nearly the whole of this section is formed of original materials, the 
 result of my own enquiries, b\it enriched by the contributions of friends, I amy 
 however, principally indebted to original, or native sources, whether by gleanings 
 from old chronicles and tales, or, oral information collected in conversations witlu 
 well-informed natives. Difficulties having been experienced by officers of official 
 rank and influence, in discovering the genealogy, or history of native chiefs, (who 
 always afford any account of themselves with great reluctance, ) it may easily he 
 supposed that impediments to this end must have been severely felt in my own case; 
 and the liberal critic will readily find an excuse for any error he may discover. 
 Those only, zvho have been engaged in inquiries of a similar kind, can be aware 
 of the difficulty of determining what is truth, and of avoiding error, in researches 
 of so intricate a character : but I shall be amply repaid for my labour, if the 
 work is considered useful. A knowledge of the people among whom we live, 
 cannot be considered otherwise than beneficial to the officer, who is desirous of 
 filling his office respectably ; and this knowledge is best acquired, next to having 
 personal intercourse with them, by a study of their history, — whatever facilitates 
 this, be it ever so unpretending, is at least not labour in vain. 
 
 I have generally avoided going into fabulous origins of families, which would 
 have swelled this work, to the great danger of exhausting the patience of some of ^ 
 my readers; who probably will neither feet interest in, or afford credit to, the tale, 
 
 * The lineage of the Soobehdar of the Deccan, and the list of his Nobles and Officers, is. 
 extracted from an account written by my own Moon&hee, a Native of Hydrabad, but which 
 place he left eighteen years ago, and it has been compared with an official account written 
 in 1816. This is mentioned, because, though corrected up to the latest date, it may turn out 
 that new actors have come upon the stage, and some of those noticed may have disappeared, 
 without such occurring to the recollection of the gentlemen who were good enough to exa- 
 mine the manuscript list at my request. I have also, in page 33, noticed the army of the State 
 in a manner calculated to mislead. Besides the military force of the Durbar, the permanent. 
 Subsidiary furnished to His Highness by the Honorable Company, consists of eight Battalions 
 of Infantry of 1 000 men each, and two Regiments of Cavalry, with the usual proportion of 
 ordnance, &c. : the payment of the whole being provided for by territorial cessions in . 
 perpetuity. 
 
TO THE READER. 
 
 that the Sirowi family are the spurious offspring of a goddess, and hence derivt 
 their name of Deora. It is equally immaterial that the Deoras were, somefeiu 
 centuries ago, Rulers in Meywar, till driven from their throne and kingdom by 
 Oode Sing, the founder of the city of Oodeepoor: or that the latter is descended 
 of the Rawuls of Chittoor, who trace their genealogy to the great Ramchundra, 
 the son of the Sun. This unconcernedness to legend, the marvellous tale, or the 
 amusing anecdote, may evince a want of submission to prevailing taste, but when 
 J began, my intention wa^, to convey useful fact, upon a broad page, with a nar- 
 row margin, and a readable type. 
 
 With respect to the spelling of names, J have deferred to the common modern 
 practice, but though often wrong in doing so, I trust that my anxiety to render 
 the subjects clearer, by using the familiar mode,* will plead my excuse with the 
 oriental scholar : in forming words which have never been expre&sedt by aid of the 
 English press, I have followed the Asiatic Orthography. 
 
 Sect. II. — The Routes, now published, are selected from a number in my posses- 
 sion, and are those most in request. I should have been happy to have given some ac^ 
 count of the voyage and journey to the healthful and interesting region on the Nee- 
 la Pui'but ( Neelgeeries, ) in addition to what I have formerly published, but im- 
 provement is making auch rapid strides in India, that any thing, I may be able 
 to communicate might become obsolete in practice before many months. I hope 
 to see ere long, steam packets established upon this coast, between Tankarior 
 and Calicut ; a scheme which, when effected, will, in facilitating travelling and 
 commMnication, do much, probably, for India. The Post from Madras to Cali- 
 cut occupies 4j days, — let the mercantile community, who are most interest- 
 ed, and those who are better judges of steam Navigation than myself, determine ^ 
 whether it would not be more advantageous to communicate with Calcutta by this 
 apparently circuitous route, than by the present direct line through Nagpoor, 
 It would be invidious to notice the snail-like speed,f at which the dak proceeds along 
 the Konkan from Surat to Malwan, were the causes of such a nature as could 
 he removed, — these are, numerous creeks to be crossed affected by the tide, and a 
 jungly country in many places, which the runners are afraid to travel through at 
 night. The expense of the establishment of Runners might be well applied to 
 the encouragement of Steam Navigation. 
 
 The routes are arranged in the most concise form, and equally wellcalculafed 
 for the use of troops, as for individual travellers. The measurement is usually, 
 from village to village, and a good Quarter-Master I think, usually sets up 
 the Head-Quarters flag -staff beyond the village when he can Jind ground there. 
 The ground of encampment however, depends so much upon the season, the state 
 of cultivation, the direction of the march, the intervention of a river, the 
 facility of obtaining water and forage, ^c. that I do not suggest it, even, where 
 perhaps I could do so with some degree of accuracy: a village servant, is alwaijs 
 ready to point out the usual encamping ground for troops, and place of accommo- 
 dation for travellers. Towns and Kusbas are distinguished by being printed in 
 capital letters, but when the latter are small, they have a K. annexed. The popu- 
 lation of a village is best sheivn by the number of houses it is supposed to contain ; 
 
 * I might be accused of affectation, or perhaps of not knowing better, were I to omit the 
 article before Gaekwar, or to designate the Soobehdar of theDeccan by any other name than,

 perty , the name of the chief it belongs to is generally expressed in Italics. 
 
 Sect. J II. — The late improvements in Palankeen Dak travelling are shewn m 
 the third section, hut it is to he hoped, that, for the mutual benefit of travellers^ 
 and of the hamals themselves, these will he further extended. 
 
 Sect. IV. — The Account of Weights and Measures is prepared from a careful 
 collation of Reports, from all the Revenue Collectors under this Presidency, which 
 were called for by this Government in 1821, and furnished during that, and the 
 following year. Among these is a vohiminous and valuable Report elucidatory of 
 this intricate, and extensive, subject, by Captain Thomas Jervis, of the Bombay 
 Engineers, highly creditable, I take the liberty of observing, to his talents and 
 research. I have made but few extracts from it, because the Report itself is 
 too valuable not to be published, sooner or later. 
 
 Reader ! in the humble hope that my labours may not he deemed useless, I 
 -bid thee farewell.

INTRODUCTION. 
 
 When the Mahomedan Dynasties, which reigned over the King^ 
 domsy into which the Deccan was divided in the \6th and \7th cen- 
 turies, had at length been subverted, after a series of wars with 
 Anrungzeeb and Sivajee, there arose, upon the ruins, a Hindoo 
 and a Mahomedan Sovereignty: the former separated, in the 
 time of the grandsons of Sivajee^ into the Mahratta States of 
 Satara and Kolapoor, tvhere their descendants still reign ; while 
 the Viceroy of the Emperor established for himself the present 
 Mahomedan Kingdom, and dynasty, of Hydrabad. The descent 
 of the principal families in the Deccan, from the adherents of the 
 founders of these Sovereignties, and their immediate successors, is 
 traced in the following pages, as far as I have been able to do so ; 
 the origin of some few of the families, however ^ belongs to a more 
 remote, and obscure, periods 
 
 JAGHEERDARS, and PRINCIPAL FAMILIES, under the BRITISH 
 GOVERNMENT in tbe DECCAN. 
 
 The Ex-Peshwa, Bajee Rao. — Every information, regardinjc the progress 
 of this family of the Peshvvas to sovereignty, is to be met with in Grant 
 Duff's " History of the Mahrattas." Here it may suffice to say, that Balajee 
 Wiswanath,* the first of the family, who attained eminence, olTiciated as a 
 Karkoon with the army under Dhunajee Jadhow, the distinguished ancestor of 
 the present Rutun Singh Jadhow Rao ; and from which office, with his son» 
 he was elevated to the rank of Peshwain 1717. He died in 1720, leaving the 
 office to his son Balajee, Bajee Rao, who died in 1740, and was succeeded by 
 his son, Nana Sahib: in his time Sahoo Raja died, without heirs, in 1749 ; and 
 the Peshwas were acknowledged supreme in the state, which they virtually 
 had been during the reign of Sahoo. Nana Sahib died in 1761, and his eldest 
 son having fallen the year before at Paniput, his second, and third sons, and 
 also the posthumous son of the latter, reigned in succession. The part, which 
 Ragoba Dada, the brother of Nana Sahib, took in the administration during 
 the three last reigns, is not suited to a brief notice of this kind ; but his son, 
 Bajee Rao, succeeded as Peshwa, and, notwithstanding the exceptionable cha- 
 racter of his father, with the strongest good w ill of the nation. After a reign 
 cpent in intrigues against the power, which restored him to his government, 
 and sustained him in it afterwards, he abdicated on the 3d June 1818, and 
 retired to Bit,hoor, or Brimhawurth, a place of pilgrimage in Hindoostan, 
 where he enjoys an annual Pension of 8 Lacks of rupees. His brother, Chim- 
 najee Appa, receives 2 Lacks ; and Venaik Rao, the son of Amroot Rao, the 
 adopted son of the Ex-Peshwa's father, receives 7 Lacks : Amroot Rao re- 
 tired to Benares in 1803. 
 
 * Thefamil} of Balajee Wiswanath appear to have been Deshmookhs of Dhunda-Rajpoor, 
 and Balajee had farmed the Customs of the Port; but it proving an unprofitable speculation, he 
 ■was unable to make up the deficiency, and fled. The Peshwa's deshmookhy glailBs upon Dhun* 
 da-Rajpoor,amouating to 10 or 12,0QQ Rupee?, are, I believe, HiU paid, 
 B 
 
10 JAGHEERDARS, &C. 
 
 The Ghorpuray family of Kapsee. — The legend of this family derives it from 
 a JRajpoot origin, in Hindoostan. Be this as it may, 3Ihaloojee, as well as his 
 father, Buerjee, appears to have served under the Kings of Beejapoor, and to 
 have received the title of Hindoo Rao. Mhaloojee had three sons ; the title of 
 Hindoo llao has remained ivith the line of the eldest, named Buerjee, from 
 whom the Gunjundurgurh family is descended. The second ivas the famous 
 Suntajee, the Siienaputee of Slvajcc, and from whom the present family of 
 Kapsee* is derived : from the third son originated the foiuily, styled Ameer- 
 ool~Oomra. 
 
 (2) t Ghorpuray. — 'Rhoo^nwgl^diO, styled Hindoo Rao, holds the Fort, and 
 estate, of Gunjundurgurh, which appears to be a very ancient possession of the 
 family : this estate was conferred upon it by the Raja of Kolapoor, and is ra- 
 ted at 17,651 rupees. Seedojee Rao, the son of Buerjee, was the iirst Suena- 
 putee of the Kolapoor State ; and his sons, Morar Rao of Gooty (the Morari 
 Row of Orme) and Dowlut Rao, were distinguished for their courage and en- 
 terprize, against the Mysore, and Hydrabad States, during the Coromandel 
 war. The fort and valley of Sondoor, now in dispute, was acquired by Seedo- 
 jee about 1713, and devolved upon Morar Rao ; who, having no children of his 
 own, adopted either Soobarao his brother's son, or Khundeerao, who was kil- 
 led in the action, at Ashta, in February 1818. The son of the latter, Shewrao, 
 at present possesses the estate. 
 
 (2) Ghorpuray, styled Ameer-OoUOomra. — Jeswunt Rao, a great grand- 
 son of the first of this title, is distinguished as the only man of family, who 
 openly espoused the British cause in 1817-18. He was Vakeel, on the part of 
 Sindhia, with Sir Arthur Wellesley in 1803, and was afterwards Sindhia's Resi- 
 dent agent at Poona. He died, shortly after the establishment of order in 
 the Deccan, in I8l9. Shew Rao, the son of the elder brother of Jeswunt Rao, 
 Las an unsettled claim upon Sondoor. The district of Dhutvvar, rated at 
 25,000 rupees, which was granted to the family by the Kolapoor Raja, be- 
 longs, half to Shew Rao, and the other half, equally, to Maloojee and Nursing 
 Rao, the legitimate sons of Jeswunt Rao : the latter have a pension each, of 
 6,500 rupees per annum, and have bad the districts of Supt Sagur, and Be- 
 ing, granted by the British government between them. The illegitimate chil- 
 dren of Jeswunt Rao, have distinguished themselves, under British officers ; 
 and one of them, Dajee Sahib, is a Risaldar in the Poona Auxiliary horse : 
 Dajeehas the village of Sewapoor, rated at 1,200 rupees, 18 miles S. of Poona, 
 inenam ; and has a pension, besides, from the British Government. 
 
 (I) Ghorpuray of Moodhol. Venkut Rao Raja. — Bajee Ghorpuray, aa 
 ancestor of this family, was a zealous partisan under the king of Beejapoor, 
 and a determined opponent to the cause of his countrymen, in their first ef- 
 forts at emancipation ; and Sivajee is said to have taken a signal vengeance, by- 
 cutting him oif, together with his whole family, and followers, to the number, 
 it is said, of about 3,000 persons in Moodhol, which he burnt. The present 
 Raja is the seventh, in descent, from Bajee. The Raja, Narraen Rao, had two 
 wives, the last married was mother of the eldest son, at present Raja. Govind 
 Rao, the second born, but of the first wife, fell, with Gokla, at Ashta in I8I8, 
 but a person now assumes his name at Poona. The Raja still holds the anci- 
 ent possessions of the family, in the Pergunnas of Moodhol, Lokapoor, Dow- 
 leshwur, Jenujee, and Maknoor ; the revenue is rated at 2^ Lacks, but the es- 
 tate realizes 1,07,540 rupees only. 
 
 * For the Kapseekur Ghorpuray, see among the Kolapoor Jagheerclars. 
 
 t The number, ^vhich nrecedos the name of each chief, shews' the class to which he belongs. 
 I have not been successful in meeting with a list of chiefs, divided into classes, which would 
 have enabled me to complete the information on this point — desirable, because each class 
 have their distinct privileges : the head of the family, or his widow, and the eldest son hold 
 equal rank ; but brothers, and younger sons of the first class only, are entitled to the privileges 
 of the second, or next, class. Cadets, in the 8«cond class, rank in the third class. 
 
^^ — IN THE DECCAN. 11 
 
 Ghorpbray. Inchel-Kurinjeekur, a bramin family. Venkut Rao, now 
 about 20 years of age, is married to the daughter of Chintamun Rao, Put- 
 wurdhun, of Sanglee. Narraen Rao Joshee, the first of his family, distinguish- 
 ed himself while in the service of the Kapseekur Ghorpuray, and had the villa- 
 g:es of Inchel-Kurinjee, &c. conferred upon him : he then took the name of 
 Ghorpuray. A descendant married into the family of the Peshwa, and had 
 the Deshraookhy of Meeruj conferred upon him, in lieu of which, he subse- 
 quently received other estates ; and what are now held by the family may be 
 rated at 75,000 rupees. 
 
 (I) The Putwurdhun Family. — The founder of this family was Hur 
 Bhut, a Konkanee Braaiin, originally in the service of the first Bajee Rao, 
 Peshwa : of his six sons, Govind Hurry, Trimbuk Hurry, and Ramchunder 
 Hurry rose to distinction, as military chieftains ; and Gopal Rao, and Purus- 
 ram Bhao, his grandsons, were among the greatest chiefs of the empire, under 
 the Peshwa: the family estates lie in the vicinity of the Kolapoor Raja's 
 dominions. The following are the present chiefs of this family, with the es- 
 timated re^^ues of the Mahals, assigned to each, for personal expenses, as 
 well as for W support of a.party of troops, which they are liable to be called 
 on to serve with ; except Chintamun Rao, of Sanglee, whose Jagheer is for 
 personal expenses : Cliintamun Rao, however, maintains a greater number of 
 military followers, since the settlement of the country, than any other of the 
 southern Jagheerdars, Appa Dessaye Neepankur excepted. 
 
 Chintamun Rao Pandoorung, styled Appa Sahib, of Sanglee. — Personal 
 Jagheer rated at 3,76,000 rupees. Gunput Rao, styled Tattia Sahib, is now 
 in charge of the Fort of Meeruj, as heir to the eldest branch of the family, 
 has a Jagheer rated at 1,85,336 rupees. Madhoo Rao, styled Baba Sahib, the 
 second chieftain of Meeruj, resides outside the Fort, and has a Jagheer, rated 
 at I,Ib,4l3 rupees. Gopal Raojee, the 3d chieftain of Meeruj, resides in the 
 Fort— Jagheer rated at Rs. 1,01,348. Wamon Rao, the 4th chieftain of Mee- 
 ruj, resides at Sahonee, and is hence styled Sahoneekur — Jagheer Rs. 92,274. 
 These chiefs are descendants of Govind Hurry ; the first being the son of 
 his third son, and the other four being the descendants of his fourth son. 
 
 The descendants of Trimbuk Hurry are, Krushn Rao of Koorundwar, 
 whose Jagheer is rated at 1,53,358 rupees ; and Gunput Rao of Shedbaul, 
 whose Jagheer is rated at 1,22,925 rupees. 
 
 The grand children of Purusram Punt Bhao are, Gopal Rao of Jum- 
 khundee, whose Jagheer is rated at 2,64,144 rupees : Govind Rao Nana of 
 Chinchnee, whose Jagheer is rated at 2,26,125 rupees: and Purusram 
 Punt Bhao, the adopted son of Gunput Rao, Jagheer rated 2,56,888 ru- 
 pees ; the two former have no family, or prospect of an heir, and are very 
 anxious about the future disposal of their estates. 
 
 PuAR OR PowAR. Perhaps the most respectable Mahratta family of thi» 
 name is that of Multan, a village 30 miles N. E. of Poona: some members 
 of it were conspicuous, during the period in which the Mahratta supremacy 
 was established over Hindoostan ; and some principal families in Malwa de- 
 rive their origin from that of the, comparatively, obscure family at Multan. 
 It is immaterial, what feats Sabajee Puar, or his son Krustnajee, performed, to 
 benefit their country, or themselves ; so I have made no enquiry on the subject: 
 the latter, however, had three sons, Boobajee, Ryajee, and Keroojee; Boobajee 
 had two sons, Kaloojee, and Sumbhajee, who were the ancestors of the Rajas of 
 Dhar, and Dewass, (of whom see the accounts in Sir John Malcolm's "Central 
 India.") The present Patel of Multan has Jagheers, principally, I believe, in 
 Khandes, rated at 9,637 rupees; and he has about 25 horse, which accompany 
 him on occasions of ceremony. The members of this family being numerous, 
 I have given the genealogical tree of it ; and it may be necessary to explain, 
 that, where the line is extinct, I have given the name in italics ; but, where a- 
 dopted into another line, or family, I have aflixed a number, to facilitate refer- 
 ence ; for instance, Manajee, the son of Khundeerao, has been adopted by Ka- 
 noojee, the soa of Boobajee ; adoption is distinguished by dotted lines.

 (I) The Chief of Ramdroog, Narraen Rao, (lately deceased) and the 
 Chief of Nuugoond, Dadajee Rao Venkatesh, hold territories, rated at Rs. 
 76 062 each. These formed one estate, till divided in 1809. The common an- 
 cestor of these chiefs was Ram Rao Dadajee, who appears to have been 
 appointed to the otKcc of Suchew to the Kolapoor State, in I7I3, on Naroo 
 Shunkur receiTinji, the investiture of this oihce from the State ot Satara. On 
 the death of Ram Rao Dadajee, the Jagheer was conferred upon his son, and 
 nephew, together. The Jagheer fell subsequently under Hyder Ah, whose 
 tyrannous conduct, towards the chiefs, induced them to look tor foreign pro- 
 tection ; whicli was aftorded by the Peshwa, and led to a war m 1785. The 
 Peshwa, in the following year, became possessed of the Jagheer, and retained 
 it, until' the year I79I ; when it was conferred upon the descendants of the 
 former proprietor, Ram Rao, and Venkut Rao ; on the death of the for- 
 mer, the estate was divided ; his son, Narraen Rao, receiving Ramdroog, and 
 Venkat Rao having Nurgoond assigned to him— each stipulating, to furnish a 
 contingent of Troops, when called upon : on the accession of the British 
 Government, the Jagheer was made personal, and the contingent was remitted. 
 
 i'*iThe^Ramdroogkur left no children ; the Nurgoondkur left three sons, the 
 
 f ellilt named Baba SaJ^b. 
 
 (l)^EDoojEE I^AO Naik Nimbhalkur,* commonly called Appa Dessaye 
 Nepankur, Surlushkur of the late Peshwa's army. He is the son of the Des- 
 saye of Nepanee, which village, with another, together rated at Rs. 2,000, 
 was conferred on his ancestor by the Raja of Kolapoor, in whose service Ap- 
 pa Dessaye also was. He afterwards entered the Peshwa's service, and ac- 
 companied the British army, in the year 1803-4 ; and was employed some years 
 after by the Peshwa to wrest Chikoree, and Menowlee, from the Raja of Kola- 
 poor. Part of these districts, together with the district of Nepanee, he now 
 holds. On the settlement of the country; he lost, in common with other Ja- 
 gheerdars, all his lands, within the Nizam's boujidary ; but he got estates in 
 lieu ; and those, he now holds, are rated at 3,30,585 rupees. 
 
 (2) Raja Bahadur, of Malligaom. — Gopal Rao Trimbuk holds surinjams, 
 Talued at Rs 21,195, in the Pergunna of Nimbayet, in Kliandes ; and also Rs. 
 7,000 upon the customs of Malligaom. His brother Mahdoo Rao Trimbuk, 
 also styled Raja Bahadur, holds Jagheers in the turuf Belapoor, district Ah- 
 mednugur, rated at Rs. 34,772. These are the grandsons of Naroo Shunkur, 
 ■who distinguished himself, as a military leader, in Gujurat, and particularly 
 at the siege of Ahmedabad, in 1755. He was one of the principal comman- 
 ders with the Bhao, on his disastrous expedition to Hindoostan, and was left 
 in charge of Delhi, on its capture, before the battle of Paniput. He was af- 
 terwards appointed Soobehdar of Jhansi, which ofhce he held fourteen years, 
 when he was recalled to the Deccan : he built the strong fort at Malligaom. 
 This family held Jagheers in Jhansi, amounting to Rs. 2,35,200. Gopal Rao 
 has adopted a son, named Shew Rao, now about six years of age : Mahdoo 
 Rao has also adopted Trimbuk Rao, aged nine years. 
 
 (2) The Vinchoorkur.— Nursing Rao WittuI, styled Punt-Raj-Adnya, 
 and Oomdut-Ool-Moolk Bahadur, titles conferred upon his grandfather, Wit- 
 tuI Sewdeo, one of the leaders under the Bhao in Hindoostan. The members 
 of this family have always been distinguished as military leaders, and their 
 Jagheers «or troops, under the late Peshwa, exceeded thirteen lacks of rupees. 
 Baloba Vinchoorkur, the manager of the family, retired with Bajee Rao to 
 Bit,hoor; and the present chief enjoys personal Jagheers, valued at Rs.57,.566, 
 with enams, valued at 9,809 rupees. He lives at Vinchoor, in Gungthuree. 
 
 (2) PooRUNDHUREE.fWhen Balnjee AViswanath was appointed to the of- 
 fice of Peshwa, in 1714, his friend Umbajee, commonly called Abba Poorun- 
 dhuree, was appointed his Mootaliq, or deputy; and, as such, remained in charge

 of the duties of Pcsliwa in the Deccan, when Balajee carried the Mahrat- 
 ta army into Hindoostan, in 1720. Abba was, originally, Koolkurny of Sas- 
 sor, near Poorundhiir ; and his descendants still reside there. Neelkunt Rao 
 Mahadeo, commonly called Abba Poorundhuree, who commanded the family 
 contingent in the war of 1817-18, died about July 1826; and, when dying, a- 
 dopted his younger brother, (same parents) as a son, in order that he might 
 succeed to the family estates. The only lineal descendant of the founder is. 
 Wittul Rao Mulhar, who has a Jagheer, rated at 10,832 rupees. Ram Rao has 
 "Bamarry, and other villages, rated at 15,000 rupees, in Jagheer. Krushn Rao 
 Ram has a Jagheer, rated at 4,750 rupees. The family of Abba have pensions, 
 as follows — His two widows 3,000 rupees, his mother 3,000 rupees, his daugh- 
 ter 300 rupees, and his adopted son an enam village, worth 1,000 rupees.

 near Sattara, and Talikot, in the Doab. This family trace their origin, as 
 chieftains, to two brothers, who served under the Bejapoor dynasty^: their 
 greatness however may be dated from tlie marriage of Gopeeka Baee, the 
 grand-aunt of the present representative, to Nana Sahib, Peshwa. The Ja- 
 gheers, held by the family, were rated at this time at ten lacks ; but they were 
 resumed by the Peshwa, in 1815, who inherited all his father's hostility to the 
 Rastias. The personal Jagheers, now held in the name of Bala Sahib, for sup- 
 port of the elder branch, are rated at 60,362rupees; about two thirds of which 
 consist of 17 villages, in the Pergunna of Khurda, in the Ahmednugur col- 
 lectorate, and the rest near Talikot. Their enam, or freehold estate, is rated 
 at 5,550 rupees. The descendants of the younger brother are, Kasseenath 
 Narraen, who has a Jagheer village, worth 700 rupees ; Gopal Rao, who 
 has a pension of 5,000 rupees ; and Wis was Rao, who has a pension of 6,000 
 rupees, and a village besides, lated at 5,000 rupees. 
 
 (1) The Nuwabof Savavoor or Shahnoor. Abdool Khuer Khan has vil- 
 lages, rated at Rs. 57,119, granted to him by the Peshwa, from possessions for- 
 merly held by his ancestors ; and he has also a pension, of Rs. 6,000 per annum, 
 from the British Government : this nobleman is the fourth in descent from Ab- 
 dool Duleel Khan, who held the office of Foujdar, of the Talook of Bankanoor, 
 under the Bejapoor government : he was confirmed in this ofiice by Aurang- 
 zeeb, in 1692, with charge of districts, rated at nearly twenty lacks of rupees, 
 and lixed his residence at Savanoor, which, from a small village, then became 
 a large town. He was succeeded by his son, Abdool Ghufoor Khan; and 
 after him by his grandson, Abdool Muzeed Khan ; about which time the family 
 paid 75,000 rupees, yearly, to the Mahrattas. Abdool Hakeem Khan succeed- 
 ed in the year 1754 ; and next year the Mahrattas, having invaded the Carna- 
 tic, took iiagulkot, Badamy, and otlier places, from him, and proceeded to be- 
 siege Savanoor: the Nuwab, reduced to extremities, relinquished territory, 
 jated at 8,23,926 rupees, with the forts of Hoobly, Keroor, and Belgaom, with 
 additional territory for their support, together with eleven lacks of rupees, 
 in cash. The country then left to him, rated at 8,30,068 rupees, was afterwards 
 taken possession of by Tippoo, in 1785, wliose sister he had married six years 
 before. But the Nuwab, who had become a Jagheerdar of Tippoo, failed to 
 keep up his contingent of 2,000 Patau horse. In the partition of the dis- 
 tricts, ceded by Tippoo some years afterwards, the estates of the Nuv/ab were 
 included in the share, which fell to the Mahrattas; and Rs. 4,000 a month were 
 granted to him, out of the revenues, for subsistence. Abdool Hakim Khan 
 died in 1798, and was succeeded by the third of his nine sons, Abdool Khuer 
 Khan, to whom viirages were assigned, in lieu of his pension, which had al- 
 ways been very irregularly paid by the Mahratta district officer. One of these 
 sons was blown away from a gun, for heading an insurrection against the late 
 Peshwa ; and another now enjoys a pension, of 200 rupees a month, at Poona. 
 
 (2) The Nuwab Mahmood Aluw Khan, Jagheerdar of Bela, is son of the 
 late Abdool Hoossain. The ancestor of this chief, Mukbool Alum Khan, 
 was appointed, by Nizam-Ool-Moolk, Soobehdar of the ^districts, under Joo- 
 
IN THE DECCAN. 15 
 
 neerc. He afterwards joined in Nasir Jung:'s rebellion, together with the Na- 
 wabs, or Killadars, of Trimbuk, and Ahmednugur, which led to their further 
 advancement, on his accession to the musnud. These chiefs were disliked in 
 a corresponding: degree by Nizam Ali, who first ordered Ku\ee Jung to plun- 
 der, or despoil, the Nuwab of Bela, and afterwards punished Kuvee Jung, on 
 pretence of his having kept back from the Nizam one of the female captives. 
 When the country afterwards fell into the hands of the Mahrattas, the family 
 were allowed to retain their personal Jagheer, which is rated at 9,665 rupees. 
 
 (2) The late Nuwab Kuvee Jung, of Hewra, enjoyed at the time of his 
 death, six months ago, a pension of Rs. 6,000 annually, in lieu of his Jagheer. 
 This family is descended from Toork-tas-Khan, a native of Bokhara, who came 
 with Auriingzeeb to' the Deccan, and distinguished himself at the last, and 
 long, siege of Golconda, in 1687 ; at which his father was killed. He was af- 
 terwards appointed Foujdar of Ahmednugur, and had twenty .five villages 
 in the district conferred upon him, in enam. His descendants appear to have 
 continued in possession, until 1759, when Kuvee Jung, the grandfather of the 
 late Nuwab, disgusted with Nizam Ali, transferred his allegiancie to the Mah- 
 rattas, and gave up the fort for an equivalent, round Hewra. Mahomed 
 Kaem, styled Foujdar, a most respectable man, who now lives in Hewra, is 
 the descendant of an adopted son of Toork-tas-Khan. 
 
 The Nuwab of Rasin. Khajeh JafFur Khan, styled Kuvee Jung, has the 
 same ancestor as the Nuwab of Hewra. His original estate, Sendee-Pukoor- 
 dee, &c. on the Seena river, close to Ahmednugur, he exchanged for others, 
 more remote, principally situated in the vicinity of Rasin, rated at 20,000 
 rupees. 
 
 (3) The Pansay Family have held the command of the artillery, at Poona, 
 from the time of Sahoo Raja, till a few years after the accession of Bajee 
 Rao ; and many members of it have died on the field of battle. The defeat 
 of the English army at Wargaom, in January 1779, towards which Bhao Rao 
 Pansay greatly contributed, procured a personal Jagheer for the family, of 
 Us. 75,000, and three Pergunnas, yielding: Rs. 1,00,000, for the support of 300 
 horse ; but these the Peshwa resumed. The late Gunput Rao Pansay com- 
 manded the Peshwa's infantry, and guns, when defeated by Sir Thomas 
 Munro at Sholapoor, in April I8I8. The family still hold estates, and pensions, 
 rated at Rs. 15,200. The principal representative at present is Krushna Rao 
 Madhoo, whose share of the estate is rated at Rs. 5,888. His principal abode 
 is at Gungapoor, in Nowlgoond Pergunna. 
 
 (2) RuTUN Singh Jadhow Rao, of Maligaom, near Baramuttee, holds enam 
 lands in the Nizam's Pergunna of Goonjootee, rated atRs. 10,055; and has also 
 a pension of Rs. 10,000. Dhunajee Jadhow, the great ancestor of this fami- 
 ly, was a distinguished leader, under Sivajee, and was rewarded with the 
 office of Suenaputee by Shao. Balajee Wiswanathj the ancestor of the last 
 line of Peshwas, was one of his Karkoons, and continued as such, with his son, 
 until I7I3, when the latter, dissatisfied, went over to the Moghuls. Balajee, 
 who became Peshwa the following year, adopted, from respect to the Jadhows, 
 a distinguishing part of the family banner in his aftabgeer, which his succes- 
 -sors have continued to use. Umer Singh, the father of Rutun Singh, died 10, 
 -or 12 years ago, reputed to be nearly 100 years old. 
 
 FuRKiA, Hurry Punt. — The only surviving descendants of this distinguish- 
 ed commander, are, Pandoorung Mahdoo Rao, his grandson, who has an 
 enam village, rated at Rs. 700, now deserted, near Poona, and receives a pen- 
 sion of 3,600 rupees, annually, from the British Government; Trimbuk Moresh • 
 wur, a grand nephew, who receives 5,000 rupees, annually; and Hurry Punt's 
 youngest son, now living at Benares. Hurry Punt Furkia was the intimate 
 friend of Nana Furnavees, and confidential secretary to the great Mahdoo 
 Rao. After the death of Mahdoo Rao, and murder of his brother, he com- 
 manded the Mahjatta army, against the usurper Ragoba Dada, in 1774; he 
 
16 JAGHEERDARS, &C. 
 
 held a principal command, when the Eftf^lish army were defeated at Tuligaora, 
 in January 1779; as also when the Maliratta troops marched, as allies, to join 
 Lord Cornwallis. He died in the year 1793, and his eldest son died in 1815. 
 The daughter of the latter was espoused by the Peshwa, in February 1797, 
 two months after his accession to the Musnud. 
 
 KooNJijR. — Paiidojee, and Narraen Rao are sons of the late Balajee Koon- 
 jur, who, from a very low rank in life, attained to great influence in the Dur- 
 bar at Poona, where he acted, for a short time, as minister. It was during his 
 administration, that Wittoojee Holkar was put to death, by being tied to the 
 feet of an elephant, and dragged through the city. Dread of Jeswunt Rao 
 Holkar occasioned him, afterwards, to take refuge in Sindhia's camp, where he 
 remained, as the Peshwa's agent, for many years. He died at Punderpoor in 
 1816; and his sons have each a pension of 4,400 rupees per annum, besides the 
 Surpattelgy of the Poona Punch-Mahals, between them. His brother, Suda- 
 seo Koonjur, has a x^ension, of 1,200 rupees. 
 
 LuKSHUMUN Rao Sudasheo, has ihe village of Temboornee in enam, valu- 
 ed at Rs. 6,053, which was granted by the Nizam ; and a personal Jagheer at 
 Baramuttee, rated at Rs. 28,773. He is the son, (adopted by his widow) of 
 Sudasheo Bhao Mankeshwur, who, from the humble oflice of news-writer at 
 Hydrabad, for the Mahratta envoy there, in 1797, rose to be head of the Pesh- 
 wa's administration in 1803. He died in I8I7, just as the war broke out, 
 leaving behind him the reputation of an able minister, though he could not 
 stem the current of his master's evil fortune. He left considerable wealth, 
 which has devolved to Lukshumun Rao. Mulhar Rao Bajee, nephew to 
 Sudasheo Bhao, has a Jagheer village, rated at 1,000 rupees. 
 
 Ramch UNDER Chowdry is the adopted son of Roopram Chowdry, who 
 had charge of part of the Peshwa's artillery, and a battalion of infantry : 
 he had also charge of the districts of Ranee-Bednore, Hungul, &,c. in the 
 Carnatic, and of Singhur, and the district under it. He died shortly before 
 the war, but his manager, Dajeeba Sewray, defended Singurh in I8I8. The 
 Jagheers were resumed, and a pension, of 12,300 rupees per annum, with the 
 village of Chas, in the Jooncere district, rated at 3,400 rupees, were conferred 
 on the family. 
 
 (2) BuLWUNT Rao KRisHNMENDLEE,'has Jagheer villages, rated at 10,587 
 rupees ; and Gunput Rao Anund Mendlee has others, rated at 6,600 rupees : 
 these are descendants of Bulwunt Rao Mendlee, who held charge of the Mah- 
 ratta conquests, in the Carnatic, during the Coromandel war, about 1756, and 
 was killed at Paniput^ in 1760 : the first is the adopted son of a grandchild, 
 the second a grandchild. 
 
 (2) Ramch UNDER VenkAtesh of Nowlgoond, manager to the Gokla fa- 
 mily, but now with the Peshwa at Bit,hoor, has enams, rated at 10,367 ru- 
 pees, and a pension of rupees. 
 
 (3) GoPAL Sh ASTREE, is SOU of Ram Shastree, the judge^ or Nyadesh, of Poona, 
 whose name is cherished throughout the Deccan, as the most learned among 
 Shastrees, and the most incorruptible among Judges, tie never received fees, 
 or gifts of any kind, and the only allowances he had were 2,000 rupees Sala- 
 ry ; 1000 rupees Palankeen allowance; 1000 rupees he received at the Dukshu- 
 na; and 200 rupees for clothes. His son, who is scarcely known, has had 
 3,200 rupees of the above continued to him. 
 
 (3) Trimbuk Rao Petthy. The great grandfather of this person was Trim- 
 buk Rao Mama, a chief, who is celebrated among his countrymen, as a sol- 
 dier, a statesmen, and a painter. He held charge of the Satara districts, and 
 Raja's ©stablishment, for several years, was distinguished in the war against 
 Tippoo, and fell in action, fighting for the ministerial party, in 1774. His es- 
 tates were continued to his family, until 1802, when the present Trimbuk 
 lisLO, having undertaken the mission to Satara, to brin§ the clothes of investi- 
 
IN THE DECCAN. 17 
 
 ture, for the instalment of the son of Amrut Rao, as Peshwa, forfeited the fa- 
 vour of the restored party, and his Jagheers were resumed. He has now a pen- 
 sion of Rs. 2,000 a year, and some enam villages in the Ahmednugur district, 
 
 GoviND DiKSiT Patunkur, of Kaigaom, on the Godavery, has Jagheers 
 Jn Sendoornee Pergunna, in Khandes, rated at 15,000 rupees ; also Kaegaora, 
 and another village near it, valued at 8,050 rupees; some rights in Hursool, &C-. 
 altogether, 24,550 rupees per annum.

 pa Khundee Rao, formerly Furnavees, and General accountant, under Sin- 
 dhia's Government. They hold Enams in the Ahmednugur Collectorship 
 principally around Aukoolnair, rated at 15,909 rupees.

 Appajee Ram, formerly an Officer under Holkar's government, has Jagheer 
 and Enam villages, &c. in the Ahmednugur Collectorship, in the Nevvassa 
 Pergunna, rated at 11,480 rupees ; and in Parneir Perg. rated' at Rs. 6,140. 
 
 KuDDUM Bandy.* The ancestors of this family were officers under the Bee- 
 japoor Kings; but, when Sivajee became the assertor of Hindoo independence, 
 they joined their countrymen, and became distinguished leaders. Kantajee 
 Kuddum Bandyf was the principal officer under the Suenaputee, and led one 
 of the Mahratta hordes, which co-operated in annual inroads, made from 
 Khandes, into Gujerat, about 1720. The chouth of the whole of that pro- 
 vince, north of the Muhee, was conferred upon Kantajee, in 1724, for the aid 
 afforded to Hamed Khan, the deputy of Nizam-Ool Moolk, in battles fought 
 near Ahmedabad, and at Bussoo, in which the armies of the emperor were 
 annihilated. It was in Kantajee's service, that Mulhar Rao Holkar first ac- 
 quired distinction, and, from a tender of sheep, became, at length, the founder 
 of one of the greatest States in India. The estates, belonging to the family, 
 are the enam villages of Runnala, Toorkeira, Kopreil, and Tanua, all situa- 
 ted upon, or near, the Taptee River, in Khandes. These villages are rated at 
 3,606 rupees, on the records; but they are now worth 10,000 rapees, by the 
 good management of the family. 
 
 Bhoetay.* a family distinguished in an early period of Mahratta power. 
 Their Jagheers in Khandes were resumed, in 1813, by Trimbukjee Dainglia, on 
 an order by the Peshwa, and the family were left nearly destitute. They now 
 have a pension of 4,300 rupees, granted by the British Government, in addition 
 to the revenues of four villages, in the Perg. of Edilabad, granted by Sindhia. 
 
 ToKHAY,* Abhonykur, Chutr Sing. This family, which is Rajpoot, holds 
 19 enam villages, yielding about 8,000 rupees, annually, in the Pergunna of 
 Kunassy, and Korally, in Gungthuree, granted in the time of Aurungzeeb. 
 
 (I) GuNPUT RaoRamchunder K4NADAY, has Satawunee, Brimha-Wakrj', 
 and two other villages in the Nizam's Pergunna of Purtoor, rated at7?5.6,820: 
 this person is the great grandson of Ramchunder Gunesh, one of the princi- 
 pal Officers, who accompanied the army toMalwa, in 1769, under Veesajee Ki- 
 shen, Beenewala. He was killed in Dec. 1780, while in command of the 
 Mahratta army, in an assault upon Colonel Hartley's camp, at Doogaur, in N. 
 Konkan, leaving behind him the well earned reputation of a skillful, and brave 
 commander. His party, consisting of 300 horse, with Jagheers, amounting to 
 2 or 3 lacks for their support, were confirmed to his son, Mahdoo Rao Ram- 
 chunder, a respectable civilian, who was left by the Peshwa, as his deputy, at 
 Poona, when he proceeded upon the campaign against the Nizam, in 1795. 
 He died shortly after, and his son, Ramchunder Mahdoo Rao, enjoyed his j£i- 
 gheers, till they were resumed by Bajeerao, and a pension of Rs. 2^000 confer- 
 red upon him. He was killed by a fall from the top of his house, 5 years ago.

 (2) Seedeshwur MuHEEPi'T Rao, styled BeenewaJa, or Quarter Master 
 General, now enjoys a pension, of Rs. 2,000 a year. This person is the grand- 
 son of Visajee Kishen, Beenewala, but who commanded theMahralta army in 
 the campaij^n to Malwa, in 1769. He had under his command Tookajee Hol- 
 kar, and Mahadjee Sindhia. After a successful campaign, Visajee Kishen 
 fully restored the Mahratta influence in Hindoostan, and seated Shah Alum 
 on the throne of Delhi, in December 1771. A well fought battle, in which Visa- 
 jee Kishen led against the Emperor, in the fo.'lowincryear, raised the Peshwa to 
 the rank of Bukshee, and Commander in Chief, of the Moghul army. He, 
 and his followers, are said to have brought great wealth into the Deccan, prin'- 
 cipally obtained at the capture of Putturghur. He died at Poona, about 
 1790, and his Jagheers, principally about Belgaora, were confirmed to his son, 
 Muheeput Rao; but were afterwards resumed by the Peshwa, Bajeerao^ l\% 
 is of the Khuradee sect of Bramins, and resides at Poona. 
 
 (3) Tanajee Rao Raja Sirkay, holds Jagheer villages in the Konkan, 
 and Mawuls, rated at Rs. 4,500, and enams rated at 1,500. His brothers, and 
 cousins, also hold personal Jagheers. viz. Gunput Rao Sirkay, Rs. 887: A- 
 nund Rao Sirkay, Rs. 436 : Amur Sing Sirkay, Rs. 974. These persons, now 
 dwindled to the rank of respectable Silladars, are the descendants of a Raja, 
 who held possession of all the Konkan Ghat-Mahta, from Poona to the Warna 
 River : a mountainous tract, in which were preserved those seeds of Hindoo 
 independence, which, at no very distant period, sprung up into a goodly tree, 
 extending its boughs to the remotest corners of India. Sivajee's principal 
 Ministers, and one of his two wives, belonged to this family. 
 
 (3) HuNMUNT Rao Durrykur, has the village of Ambla, in the Poona dis- 
 tricts, worth 800, or 900 rupees : I notice him, that I may mention an anecdote 
 of his father. The Peshwa, Mahdoo Rao, sitting in full Durbar, in camp near 
 Seedatek, had sent for some elephants to look at. One of them, on the way, be- 
 came furious, and running direct to the Durbar chandnee, or awning, threw 
 it up, and had reached the spot where Mahdoo Rao sat, and kept his seat, 
 while the whole of a numerous assembly fled, except Khundee Rao Durrykur, 
 a Silladar, and Appajee Rao Patunkur, both of whom stept in front of the 
 Peshwa : the elephant turned oft" at this instant ; but the intrepidity, or de-- 
 votion, of these persons, occasioned the first to be made Surlushkur, and the 
 other was always, afterwards, supposed to have the greatest influence at court, 
 during the lifetime of Mahdoo Rao. 
 
 (2)Balajee Punt Naraen Nathoo, rendered valuable and essential service 
 to the British interests, in 1817-18. To use the words of Capt. Grant Dulf, 
 (vol. III. p. 412.) " His vigilance, judgment, fidelity and firmness, at that 
 *' trying period, entitled him to the munificent reward, which was conferred up- 
 *'on him;'^ this was a pension of 6,000 rupees per annum. He has also freehold 
 estates, rated at Rs. 12,000. He is the niosc respectable Bramin, in appear- 
 ance, whom I have seen ; and is as diffident, and respectful, as in former days. 
 He has written a history of his own times. 
 
 Deodhur, Pandoorung Rao Anna, sumamed Dhumdheri, was a great fa- 
 vourite of the Ex-Peshwa, who married his niece, since dead. The Jagheers, 
 ■which had been held by Amb6kur, a meritorious officer, and remarkable per- 
 son, in Nana Furnavees' time, were, mostly, conferred upon Deodhur, and his 
 relations. Pandoorung Rao now holds .Jagheers, rated at 20,090 rupees, being 
 principally at Kurinjgaom, in Gungthuree, Mehoonbara and Joorga, in Khan- 
 des, and he resides at Apty, on the Bheenia. His son, Ramchundur Punt Abba, 
 has about 15 Jagheer villages in the Patoda Pergunna, in Gungthuree, rated at 
 12,000 rupees, and \\(^. now resides with the Peshwa. Moro Rugonath Dhum- 
 dheri has a pension of 5,000 rupees, and resides at Poona.

 Peshwa, and is a descendant of the person, who held this office under Shao.* 
 
 (2) Grvpur Rao Narraex, ofRanzec, about 18 miles S. of Poona, son 
 ofNaroo Gunesh, formerly Dewan to Holkar, holds Jagheer villages, prin-

 (2) Gungadhur Madhoo Rao, is the great grandson of Gungadhur Yeswunt, 
 who was dewan to Mulhar Rao Holkar, when first advanced to command, and 
 continued to hold the office, but with less credit to himself, in the time of his 
 high minded daughter, Aylah Baee. He was afterwards the supporter, in re- 
 bellion, of Kugonath Rao, against the great Mahdoo Rao. He holds Newas- 
 sa, and some villages in the vicinity, in Jagheer, estimated, together, at 26,084 
 rupees, but rated, on the government records,t at 66,789 rupees. His cousin, 
 Khundee Rao Krishn, has an enam, rated at 5,000 rupees. 
 
 (2) Venaik Rao Chintamun, Deshmookh of Someshwur, near Rutna- 
 gheery, once a principal (»llicer in the Dufter, (record Office,) is now at 
 Bit,hoor with the Ex-Peshwa. The Jagheer villages, held by him in vari( us 
 places, are rated at 9,200 rupees. 
 
 (2) KuNo DiKsiT Maratay, son of Moro Diksit, the Minister, who fell in 
 the battle of Khirkee, resides at Waee, on a pension of 3,000 rupees, from the 
 British Government. Moro Diksit^s brother has also a pension, of 1,200 ru-

 • Shao is the fainiliar appellation of theRaj-* Sahoo.the son of Raja Ram, among the Mah- 
 ratlas ; and even intellij^eut Bramjns Sfive him this name. 
 
 + Jagheer villages are. gomeiinies, rated at much more, than they produce, and, occasionalljr, 
 at much less. This arises principally from the manner, in which the grant is made, or the way, 
 in which it is understood by the district officer. A village, of 1000 rupees Eumal, may greatly 
 •xceed its real revenue. The Kumal is the greatest revtnue, realised in any « neof a series of 
 years. The Tunkha is the average of a serie?of years, and, uncler the yahomedau Goveru- 
 ment?. was the standard assessment ; although still entered in tl e accoui ta, it is «>bsolete in 
 
 rractice. The Akar, i« a general term, applied to the rent of a village ; uai the Hul-Akar, 
 conceive, to designate present realizations.

 MENT OF SATARA. 
 
 Raja of-Satara, Purtab Sew, Bhosla. — His titles are, Sreemunt, Maha- 
 Raja, and Chuterputec. This prince is the fifth in descent from the great Si- 
 vajee, who, in his contest with the Mahomedan kingdoms of the Deccair, es- 
 tablished Hindoo independence, and mainly contributed to the subversion of 
 these dynasties, by Aurungzeeb, afterwards. Sivajee was born in 1627, and 
 died in 1680. A legend of the family gives it a Rajpoot origin*. It seems, 
 liowever, that his grandfather, Maloojee Raja, Patel of Deoolgaom, near Patus, 
 and of other places, was an active partisan under the king of Ahmednugur, 
 and had a.Iagheer conferred upon him, which descended to his son, Shahjee, 
 afterwards a principal Mahratta leader, under the Beejapoor dynasty. He 
 acquired, in Jagheer, nearly the whole of what now forms the Collectorship of 
 Poona, together with part of the Mawuls under Satara ; and it was in these 
 valleys, that his son, Sivajee, matured his plan of Hindoo independent sove- 
 leignty. Under his successors, his elder grandson, Sahoo, and the Peshwas, 
 ihe Mahratta possessions continued to increase, till, by a want of vigour, in 
 controlling servants, and dependents, it was dismembered, and divided into 
 live, distinct, states ;t the rulers of which, however, rendered at first a real, but 
 afterwards a nominal, obedience to the original state. On the death of Sahoo, 
 in 1749, a minority ensued ; and from that day, the Peshv/as, nominally ser- 
 
 * The Bhonslny, (Bhosla) and Ghorpuray families pretend to derive their origin from a 
 common anceytor. It does not appear, however, by the legend, which has been read to me, 
 that the latter family correctly assume the name of Bhonslay. The probability of a common 
 
 ,ori"-in is sufficiently borne out, by the circumstance of their not intermarrying; for Hindoos 
 never marry into their own family, though the degree of relationship may be hidden in the ob- 
 
 'scurity of ages. 
 
 Dy the legend it appears, that Bapoo Raoul reigned at Chitoor, in Rajpootana, in the year 
 33 1 of the Christian era. The twenty-third king of his race had two sons, Bharat see, and 
 Bheemsee. The latter attached himself to the brother-in-law of the Prithee-raj (/hohan, of 
 Delhi, and obtained permission to possess himself of Kepaul. He promoted the worship of 
 Ghooruknalh Mahadeo, the tutelar deity of the country, and with him originated the luma of 
 Ghoorka. The Rajpoot tribe, called Bheemsee, still exists in Nepaul. A chief of this family- 
 is said to have returned to Rajpootana, in 144i, and assuming the title of Raja, with him ori- 
 ginated the states of Doongurpoor, and Banswara. The thirteenth Ruler of this race, at Doon- 
 ♦'•urpoor, named Abheesee, and styled the iVlaba Rana, left the Government to his sister's son, 
 in prejudice of his own children. One of the latter, named Sujunsee, came to the Deccan, 
 and entered the service of the King of Beejapoor, who conferred upon him the district of 
 Modhui, comprising 84 villages, wiih the title of Raja. Sujunsee had four sons. Bnjee Ra- 
 ja, in whose line descended the Modhulkur estate; the second died without family; and 
 from Wolubsye is the Kapseekur Ghorpuray ; Sugajee, the youngest, had a son, named Bho- 
 
 ' sajee, from whom is derived all the Bhonslays: lie had ten sons; the eldest settled at De- 
 ool«>-aom, near Patus, and originated the line of the great Sivajee : Second, at Hingnee, proba- 
 bly°Hingungaom : Third, at Bherdee : Fourth, at JSawuutwaree, where his descendants 
 have continued to rule : Fifth, at Wawee, out of which family the father of the present Raja 
 of Satara was adopted : Sixth, at Moongy, better known as Moongy-Pytan ; Seventh, at 
 Shumboo Mahadeo : Eighth, at Boregaom : Ninth, at Jeentee (Hydrabad Road :) and the 
 tenth at Khunwutta, out of which family the present Raja of Kolapoor's father was adopted. 
 The reader will recognise the descendants of most of these families, at the present day 
 hovering about the place, where their progenitor settled, 
 t Nagpoor, Sindhia, Holkar, Ui© Guikwar, and'that, left under the Pcshwa. 
 
UNDER THE GOVERNMENT OF SATARA, 21 
 
 vants, became the real masters, holding the Rajas prisoners, and pageants, 
 till the result of the battle of Ashta, in February 1818, liberated the family ; 
 and the present Raja was raised to the throne of a territory, supposed to yield 
 15 lacks of rupees, exclusive of Jag:heers. The Raja's younger brother is na- 
 med Shalijee, and styled Appa Sahib. 
 
 (I) BujABA NiMBiiALKUR, stijled T^aik,* and Phultuu Rao. — The districts, 
 called Phultun des, situated on the south bttnk of the Neera River, have been 
 held by this family, in Jagheer, for probably some centuries. The Jagheer re, 
 alizes 21acks of rupees of revenue, and the chief furnishes 75 horse, for the 
 service of the Raja. The Naiks of Phultun were enterprizing leaders, under 
 the kings of Bcjapoor, and among the most active opponents, that Sivajeo 
 had to contend with. Nor did this family join the cause of their religion, till 
 many years after Sivajee's death, though connected with him by marriage. 
 The late chief, Jan Rao, died in 1825, at an old age, without heirs; but leaving 
 two widows. He left a paper of adoption, in favour of Bujaba Naik, tha 
 present chief, which was couiirmed by Xi. H. the Raja, with the concurrence 
 oi the British Government. 
 
 DurFLAY, Ram Rao Chohan, the Jagheerdar of Jhutt. — An ancestor of 
 this chief was an active partisan, in the service of the kings of Beejapoor, in 
 the time of Sivajee. It does not appear, at what time he joined his country- 
 men. The present chief has, besides his hereditary freeliold estates, whicli 
 arc rated at Rs. 19,162, Jaaheers, rated at Rs. 1,48,101 ; including however 
 alienations, on account of religious establishments, amounting to Rs. 9,115^ 
 and money payments to relations, amounting to Rs. 11,250. He furnishes fif- 
 ty horse, for the service of the Raja of Satara. 
 
 The Nimbhalkurs, of Watar, (a village between Phultun andtheMahdeo 
 hills) are a branch of the Phultun family. The family, which is very numer- 
 ous, and extremely wealthy, has enriched itself by mercantile underta- 
 kings. Watar is worth about Rs. 2,500 ; Koonty, a village given to them by 
 Sindhia, is worth Rs. 2,500; and Body, in the Seerwul district, given by Punt 
 Suchew, is worth Rs. 1,000 more. A lady of this family was married to the 
 present Raja of Kolapoor, but is deceased. 
 
 (1)Raja of Akulkot.-— Mallojee Rao Bhonslay, the present Raja, succeed- 
 ed his father, Futteh Sing, who died in April 1823. His Jagheer, personal and 
 for troops, together, amounts to Rs. 2,17,075, and he is obliged to furnish 100 
 horse, for the service ot the Raja of Satara. The first Raja was the orphan 
 son of the Patell of Parud, in Gungthuree, who having fallen in the assault 
 of a town, led to his son's being adopted by Sahoo, about the year 1707, and 
 to his bearing the Satara family name, of Bhonslay. The Jagheers, held by 
 the first Raja, amounted to thirty-five lacks, annually.

 intended, to exalt the holder above all the Purdhans, being Alter Ego in fa-ct. 
 It was created by Raja Ram, to reward Prillhad Nerajee for very distin- 
 guisJied services. Purushram Trimbuk, who, from the humble office of a Kool- 
 kurny, had raised himself into nDtioe, succeeded him, and the present chief is 
 the fourth from him, in lineal descent. His ancestors possessed very extensive 
 Jagheers; but what remain to him are valued at Rs. 1,55,000. He rebelled 
 against the Peshwa, in 1806, but was subdued, the following year, by Bapoo 
 Gokla, who brought him to Poona, where he was kept in confinement by the 
 Peshwa, for many years. Gokla took possession of the Jagheer, but nevei

 ^.<^«».^4, Raja of Kolapoor. — Shahjee, the present Raja, succeeded his half brother, 
 Sumbhajee, styled Aba Sahib, who was murdered, under circumstances of 
 great suspicion, in 1822, by a chief of the house of Mohitay. These were sons 
 of Sivajee, a member of the KhunwuttaJ family, adopted about the year 1762, 
 by the vvidow of Sumbhajee, the last of the lineal descendants of the great 
 Sivajee. The State of Kolapoor may be said to have been founded by Tara 
 Baee, the widow of Raja Ram, about 1707, when Sahoo Raja, being libera- 
 ted by Aurungzeeb, a few months before his death, returned to claim his in- 
 heritance, as head of the Mahratta nation, from his aunt, Tara Baee, and her 
 stepson, Sumbhajee. After a series of wars, Sumbhajee was acknowledged, 
 as head of the Kolapoor State, by his cousin Sahoo, in 1731 ; and, bounda- 
 ries being fixed, it became, thenceforth, a distinct, and independent, sovereign- 
 ty.§ The present Raja has married six wives, of whom five are still living; 
 but he has no family. His brother left a son a year old, but he is since dead.

 Trimbuk, the first person who held this office under the Kolapoor state ; and 
 to whom the fort and district of Vishalgurh was granted in Jagheer, which 
 they still hold. It appears to have been subsequently confirmed to Bhugwunt

 The Surlushkur, Hunmunt Rao Nimbhalkur, styled Rao Sahib Khur- 
 dakur, is of the Phultun family. He has an old Jagheer, rated at 15,000 ru- 
 pees, and a new one rated at 10,000 rupees. His mother is a sister of the 
 Raja. 
 
 Hybut Rao Gaekwar, and Deenkur Rao Gaekwar, have the villages of 
 Kuradagee, Kokee, and Moree, in the district under Panala, rated at 25,000 
 rupees, in Jagheer. They hold the office of Khowaus Khana : their duty is 
 to hold the morchul behind the Raja, on occasions of state, and sit behind 
 him on his elephant : the office is highly respectable at all native courts. 
 
 The descendants of the other original Purdhans, are : Rowjee, Wankanees, 
 who has a Jagheer, rated at 5,000 rupees ; and who is in great favour with 
 the Raja. — Suddaseo Rao, Muntree, who has a Jagheer rated at 2,000 rupees, 
 and lives at Kolapoor. — Unna, Dubheer, who has a Jagheer of 5,000 rupees, 
 and lives also at Kolapoor. — the Pundit Rao, has three villages in Jagheer, 
 worth .5,000 rupees : he lives in Kolapoor, and has two sons, Gopal Acharry, 
 and Bucha Acharry. — Govind Rao, Suchew, and his brother, have, for the 
 support of both their families, a Jagheer of 5,000 rupees, and Anund Rao, 
 Moozumdar, has a Jagheer, rated at 5,000 rupees. Bulwunt Rao Chitnees, 
 otherwise Buer Rao, is of the Khuradee sect, has an enam village, in the dis- 
 trict of Hookeree, rated at 3,500 rupees. 
 
 Narraen Rao Bhonslay, commonly called Khunwuttakur.* — This person 
 is the brother of the Raja's father, who was adopted by the widow of Sum- 
 bhajee, the last of the lineal descendants of the great Sivajee : his Jagheer is 
 12,000 rupees . 
 
 Dhondoo Rao, son of Appajee Rao, Nimbhalkur, of the Watar family, 
 had a Jagheer granted to him six years ago, rated at 12,000 rupees. He re- 
 sides at Kolapoor. His sister (since dead) was married to the present Raja of 
 Kolapoor. 
 
 Ghatgay of Kagul,! Jue Singh Rao,t styled Hindoo Rao, as well as his 
 brother, are in Sindhia's camp. Their mother, who is half sister to the Raja, 
 resides at Kagul, the ancient hereditary possession of the family. 
 
 Neelkunt Rao Sindhia, of Menowlee, styled Sena-Sahib'Sooba, holds

SAWUNT WAREE. 27 
 
 Narraen Rao Khanwelkur, is nephew to Jeejajee Rao Khanwelkur, who 
 had lately charge of the fort of Kolapoor, with large Jagheers assigned to 
 him for its support, but which have been lately resumed. An enam village, 
 rated at 7,000 rupees, is all that remains for the support of the family. Door- 
 ga Baee, the late pugnacious Ranee of Sawunt Waree, belonged to this fami- 
 ly, and another member of it is a well known officer under Dowlut Rao Sin- 
 dhia. 
 
 The Dessaye of Wutmooree, has an estate rated at 8,000 rupees; and 
 resides, principally, at Kolapoor. 
 
 The Dessaye of Julalpoor, is of a very ancient family, and has an estate 
 rated at 4,000 rupees. 
 
 The foregoing account of the Kolapoor Purdhans and Ja- 
 gheerdars, is not derived from a very authentic source, and is 
 inserted in this publication, because no better account is pro- 
 curable. 
 
 To have rendered the work more complete, I should have here 
 inserted an account of the Dessayes of the Southern Mahratta 
 country, the principal of whom are those of Dumul, Hcaanoor, 
 Jambootee, Noulgoond, Jalihal, Talikot, Hoongoond, Bagulkot, 
 Hutanee, ^c. Their names, and the registered estimated value 
 of tJieir estates, which are freehold, is the only authentic infor- 
 mation concerning them, which I have been fortunate enough to 
 meet with. 
 
 SAWUNT WAREE. 
 
 The Deshmook of Sawunt Waree, is an independent prince, ruling 
 over a small territory, yielding about two lacks of rupees, situated between 
 Goa and Malwan. The Collector, at Rutnageery, is the British Agent with 
 this state. Khem Sawunt, from whom this family traces its origin, was an 
 officer under the Beejapoor Kings, and held charge of Khoodal Prant,* 
 during the declining period of that monarchy. He formed an alliance M'ith 
 Sivajce Bhonslay, who at this time was rising to sovereignty ; and having 
 seized upon the rights of all the Dessayes, assumed, and was confirmed by 
 Sivajee in, the titles of Dessaye, and Sur-Dessaye, of Sawunt Waree. He 
 agreed to pay half the revenue to Sivajee, after deducting the usual percent- 
 age as Deshmook ; and to maintain a contingent of Infantry, for the other 
 half. He reigned twelve years, and was succeeded by his son, Poond Sawunt, 
 who joined the cause of Tara Baee, of Kolapoor, in 1707, and died, after 
 a reign of seven years. His brother, Lukum Sawunt, succeeded, and appears 
 to have been the most distinguished personage of the family. The Kolapoor 
 forces, under Ramchunder Punt, Bowrakur, the Amat, invaded Sawunt 
 Waree, audit was only saved from entire subjugation, by the intervention 
 of Ghorpuray Enchul-Kurinjeekur, who accompanied the invading; army, 
 and who bore in mind favours, which had been conferred upon him by Poond 
 Sawunt. Luckum Sawunt, at this time, says the legend, assumed the name 
 of Bhonslay ; and, having taken possession of Badeewaree, the only place 
 remaining to the Moghuls, in the Konkan, assumed the insignia of an 
 
 * The ancient name of a district, including the §;reater part of Southern Konkan.

 independent prince. He died, after a reign of twenty four years, without 
 children, and was succeeded by his nephew, Khem Sawunt, the son of hi» 
 brother, Poond Sawunt, who reigned thirty two years. He was succeeded by 
 Ms nephew Poond Sawunt the son of his brother, Nar Sawunt, in w hose 
 time Salsee was taken possession of by Angria. Poond Sawunt had eleven 
 sons, the eldest, Nar Sawunt, was killed in an affray, arising in an attempt to 
 seize him, by his father's orders ; who, grieved at the occurrence, resigned the 
 Gaddee in favour of his grandson Ramchunder, son of the deceased, and then 
 only four years of age, — giving him his uncle, Jueram Sawunt, as manager: ho 
 reigned seventeen years, and was succeeded by his son, Khem Sawunt, a minor. 
 During his minority, Jeoram Subnees managed affairs for twelve years. 
 Khem Sawunt had four wives : the 1st, Lukshmee Baee, was the sister of the 
 distinguished Junkoojee Sindhia; 2d, Doorga Baee, of the house of Khanwel- 
 kur, of Kolapoor; 3d, Nurmada Baee; and4th, Saweetree Baee, the daughter of 
 Ghatgay, of Kagul. He had, however, no male issue, but several daughters. On 
 Khem Sawunt marrying into Sindhia's family, he received some privileges of 
 nobility, and took the style, and title, of Raja, Khem Sawunt, Buhadur, 
 Surdessaye. From this time, (about forty years ago,) the Sawunt Wareeand 
 Kolapoor states were frequently at war. Their disputes were at length 
 referred to the Peshwa, who induced them to make mutual restoration of 
 rights and territories which each had usurped from the other. Khem Sawunt 
 afterwards went to war with the Portugueze, invaded the Goa territory, and 
 took from them the district of Chowkul. After his death, Lukshmee Baee 
 became regent; and, having no children, Son Sawunt, styled Aba Sahib, 
 and Shreeram Sawunt, styled Rao Sahib, grand uncles of the late Raja, 
 began intriguing to have their sons adopted by Lukshmee Baee. The 
 dispute ran high, and the former took possession of Rairee and Eshwunt- 
 gurh, in which last place, being beseiged by Shreeram, he set fire to the 
 house, in which he resided, and perished with all his family except his son, 
 Poond Sawunt, who continued shut up in Rairee, while Shreeram Sawunt 
 ravaged the open country. He attempted to wrest the government from 
 Lukshmee Baee ; and she was obliged to promise, that his son, Bhow Sahib, 
 should be adopted by her. At this time, the Kolapoor army invaded the 
 Waree country, but Appa Dessaye Neepaunkur, having come to their assist- 
 ance, the Kolapoor troops returned within their own boundary, and Neepaun- 
 kur remained. Poond Sawuntthen visited the Raja of Kolapoor, at his Capital, 
 and soon after his return to Waree, Bhow Sahib was found strangled. An 
 insurrection afterwards took place, headed by an impostor, who assumed 
 his name, and who is said to be now living in the town of Mhar near 
 Bankoot. At this time Soobarao Ghatgay, who was in the service of Nee- 
 paunkur, brought his grandson, Bapoo Sahib, the son of Poond Sawunt, 
 then five years of age, from Torghul to Waree, and endeavoured to persuade 
 Lukshmee Baee to adopt him ; but, failing, Bapoo Sahib was taken back to 
 Torghul, and the Neepaunkur's troops returned to their country. Lukshmee 
 Baee, after a turbulent reign of seven years, died. Doorga Baee succeeded, 
 and committed the charge of affairs to Poond Sawunt ; during whose time 
 the company found themselves obliged to interfere, and a treaty was made ; 
 by which Vingorla changed owners. Doorga Baee died about eight years 
 ago. During her dotage, and Bapoo Sahib's minority, affairs were mana- 
 ged, but very badly, by Chundrapa, the Killadar of Hunmuntgurh, and Suni- 
 bhajee Sawunt, a dependent of the family. Bapoo Sahib now reigns. 
 
 The Family of Heera-Chundagurh. Myna Baee, the widow of the 
 late chief, now holds this estate, which is rated, on the records, at 14,373 
 rupees. The fort of Gundhargurh, where the family reside, is six miles from 
 the town. The district is a jungly and hilly tract, situated about thirty five 
 miles W. 6 N. of Belgaom, and about twenty miles from that part of the 
 Syhadree range, which bounds the Waree country. In the confusion, which 
 prevailed during the minority of the last Khem Sawunt of Waree, his uncle, 
 Nagh Sawunt, established himself in this district, and the present possessor 
 is his son's widow. 
 
IN THE NORTHERN KONKAN. 29 
 
 CHIEFS IN THE NORTHERN KONKAN. 
 
 The Raja of Jowar, Puttun^ Shah, is of the Koolee tribe. He was 
 invested with the chiefship, in December, 1822, by the British Government ; 
 but, being: a minor, the conduct of affairs was entrusted to his mother, 
 Sugoona Baee, Ranee. The territory is a mountainous tract, situated below 
 the Syhadree range, N. E. of Tanna, containing many fertile valleys ; but 
 cultivation is greatly neglected : the population is composed of predatory 
 Koolee, and other jungle, tribes, who are mostly armed with bows and arrows, 
 spears, or matchlocks. Joyah Mookney, the founder of this petty state, 
 established himself in the strong country about Jowar, nearly 500 years ago, 
 and subsisted by freebooting. He was succeeded by his son, Nem-Shah, on 
 whom the emperor of Delhi, by imperial Firman, conferred the title of Raja. 
 In A. D. 1758, the Raja possessed the whole of the country, which lies imme- 
 diately below the Syhadree range, from the latitude of Basseen to the Damun- 
 gunga : he then had ten forts, and held also the Foujdaree of Bhewndy. His 
 land revenue was rated at 1,00,000 rupees ; but the exactions from tra- 
 vellers, and merchants, amounted to about 2,.50,000 more, making his total 
 revenue 3,50,000 rupees. Previous to 1760, quarrels had' arisen with the 
 Poona State ; which, subsequently to this date, assumed a right of interference 
 in the family feuds. In 1766, Puttung Shah, the grandfather of the present 
 raja, had been adopted by the widow of his predecessor, and established upon the 
 Gaddee by the help of the Peshwa, by whose encroachments the estate wa^ 
 reduced, about this time, to its present limits, yielding a revenue of 15, or 
 20,000 rupees, but burdened with a fixed tribute of 1000 rupees per annum, 
 andaNuzur on the investiture of every new Raja. The Jowar, and Gun- 
 jad, districts, produce a good deal of timber. The Raja is within the juris- 
 diction of the Collector of Tanna. 
 
 Raja of Penth and Hursool, Lukshudeer, styled Dulput Rao, is des- 
 cended of a very ancient Rajpoot familj% the chief of which, at some 
 unkno^vn period, was converted to Mahomedanism. It does not appear, that 
 the Poona Government had ever interfered with this estate, until 1790, when 
 Chimnajee, the father of Lukshudeer, incurred a debt of 25,000 rupees, to 
 the Peshwa's Mamulutdar of Nassik, who, in consequence, attached it. 
 Chimnajee then appealed to the Peshwa, and agreed to pay a Nuzur of 
 1,25,000, (which, with the original debt, and interest, amounted eventually 
 to 1,75,000 rupees) in nine yearly instalments. In 1801, the estate was 
 sequestrated ; and in 1805, we find Lukshudeer, who is a Mahomedan, 
 receiving a subsistence of 2,500 rupees yearly ; and Neelkunt Rao Dulvee, 
 also styled Dulput Rao, of the Hindoo branch of the family, receiving 1,500 
 rupees per annum. In 1813, the former was reduced to 1,800 rupees, and the 
 latter to 750 rupees. The revenue realized in the territory, in 1813, by the 
 accounts, was 18,000 rupees; though it is calculated to realize about 35,000. 
 The estate has since been restored to the Raja, but a tribute of 3,500 rupees, 
 is paid, annually, to Government. The territory, comprizing ninety-nine 
 villages, situated in the midst of thick forests, is in length, from the Wag 
 River, north, about fifty miles, and about twenty miles in breadth. The 
 country is extremely poor, and the inhabitants, are principally, Koolees. 
 Both Rajas could not command 100 horse and foot, exclusive of Bowmen. 
 They are under the agency of the Collector of Ahmednugur. 
 
 BHEEL NAIKS in the ADJUNTA RANGE, Westward. 
 
 Byajee Wulud* Tar, Naik of the Kalduree Hills. This chief 
 formerly had his huttee, or encampment, in the Kalduree hills ; which is 
 
 * Wulud (Arabic) the son of, 
 
30 BHEEL NAIKS. 
 
 that portion of the Adjunta range, adjoining the fort of Untoor ; and with 
 his Bheels, whose numbers were constantly fluctuating, he ravaged the 
 country, and carried off the cattle both above and below the Ghats. He 
 has been lately settled atBhurgaom, a town about forty miles south east of 
 Dhoolia, where he enjoys a pension from the British Government, of 400 
 rupees annually, and Enam lands in the neighbourhood. His followers are 
 also now living in their villages in the plain, and cultivating the soil for 
 their subsistence. 
 
 Saiba Wulud Madh, Naik, Gaekwar Naik of the Satmalla Hills. 
 This chief had his huttee close to the Adjunta pass. He was one of the 
 wildest, and most savage, of the Bheel Naiks in this range; buti!?no>r 
 quietly settled, with about thirty of his followers, at Guneshpoor a village 
 in Khandes, about sixty miles south of Dhoolia. The rest of his follower' , who 
 were as wild and savage as their chief, have also takin to the plough, Saiba 
 Naik receives a pension, of 660 rupees annually, from the British Gov«f?rnment. 
 
 RoRA Wulud Secoo, Naik Mora Ar Nuddee. The Ar Nuddee is a 
 small mountain rivulet, which takes its rise in the Adjunta h^'.h, about 
 fifteen miles westward of the AmbaGhat, and on the c\uik of waich this 
 chief formerly had his huttee. He, like the other Naiks of tavi Adjunta 
 hills, has now taken to the plough, and is settled, with his followers, at 
 Peepree, a small village, about twenty five miles east of Maiigaom. He 
 rdceives a pension from the British Government, of 1,500 rupees per annum. 
 
 Seeooram Wulud Nund, Naik of Goojurduree, is a descendant of 
 C^hundee Naik, a man of great influence, about fifteen years ago, in the 
 Patoda, and other districts, North of the Godaveree. He died a prisoner 
 in the fort of Unkaee, and Seeooram Naik is now settled at a small Immlet, 
 close to Jateegaom, with about forty followers, who cultivate for iheir 
 subsistence. This chief has a small pension from the British Government, 
 and considerable claims on that of the Nizam. 
 
 Daoo Wulud Abjee, Naik, Huttee Sukapooree. A nephew of Kal 
 Naik, another chief of notoriety in the stormy times, about thirty years since. 
 This young man is now settled at the plough, with about thirty followers, 
 at Roeela Boojrooky a village about fifteen miles south west of Kunnur. 
 He receives a small pension from the British Government, and has also some 
 claims on the Nizam. 
 
 SuTWA, Naik. The Huttee, or encampment, of this Naik was at Satkoond, 
 a place about fifteen miles west from the town of Kunnur. It was here, 
 also, that his uncle Panjee Naik, a man of great influence amongst the Bheels, 
 resided, about twenty-five years ago, at the head of a large body of fol- 
 lowers, and preserved the tranquility of the country. It is said, that, during 
 
 REMARKS ON THE Bheet.s. — The Bheels are considered to be in connnion with the Koo- 
 Ices of Gujerat, and the Gonds of the eastern part of the peninsula, or Gondwana, the remain* 
 of the aborigines of India. Their numbers are greatly kept up by constant accessions from 
 the plains ; and wretches of desperate fortune, such as have, by crime or misfortune, been 
 ejected from their 'caste, or profession, flock to their standard. There is nothing in their ideas, 
 either of morality or religion. 
 
 When pursued, they evince uncommon dexterity ; and a Bheel, with a child on each shoul- 
 der, will spring from rock to rock, and from bush to bush, with as much dexterity as a wild 
 gt)at ; and, when pushed, will coil himself up in a bush, so snugly, that his pursuer will, in all 
 probability, pass wilhont observing him. Although they are generally armed with bows and 
 arrows, they take a few matchlocks with them when they expect much opposition. They 
 never poison their arrows, and generally fire from ambush. They frequently shift their quar- 
 ters, and a Huttee, or Bheel village, is soon formed. 
 
 The Bheels are by no means deficient in intelligence ; are lively, patient of fatigue, and vi- 
 gilant. They are attached to their offspring; and, when pursued, make a desperate resistance 
 at some particular point, until their wives and children have had time to escape, in an ©ppo- 
 «tc direction, when they take to their heels.- Extract from Jisiatic Jovrnal, ISt'l. 
 
IN THE ADJUNTA RANGE. 31 
 
 Panjee Naik's life time, the Bheels remained quiet, but that disturbances 
 broke out almost immediately after his death. Sutwa Naik is now settled 
 at Boltek, a small hamlet close to Champaner, with about fifty followers, 
 who have all taken to the plough. This Naik receives a small pension from 
 the British Government, and has also considerable claims on the Nizam. 
 
 KisHNEEA WULUD Ankhoos, Naik. The father of Kishneea Naik had 
 his huttee at Hunmunt Soonda, near the Gaotala Ghat. This was formerly 
 one of the principal passes from Aurungabad into Khandes, through the 
 Adjunta hills. But it is now scarcely practicable for laden cattle. Kishneea 
 Naik has a small pension from the British Government, and resides in a 
 hamlet close to Kunnur, where, with about thirty followers, he has taken to 
 the plough. He likewise has claims on the Nizam's Government. 
 
 Bapoo Wulud Ruttun, Naik, Huttee Nangeerghur — a small fort, now in 
 ruins, a short distance from Kunnur. Bapoo Naik is now settled at Pulas- 
 gaom Khoordy a village about five miles south of Kunnur, with fifteen or 
 twenty followers, who have all taken to the plough. Bapoo J>f aik receives a 
 trifling pension from the British Government, and he has also, like the other 
 four Naiks, above named, claims on the Nizam. 
 
 There are several other Naiks living in the districts, below this part of 
 the range, of Adjunta hills ; but they are too inconsiderable, to deserve notice 
 here.

 I regret that I am unable to give an account, in this place, of 
 the Bheet Naiks in the Sautpoora range, who furnished employ- 
 ment for so large a portion of our disciplined troops in Khandes, 
 in 1818-19 : or of the Ramoosy Naiks, and their followers, in the 
 hills within the Poona Collectorate, and in the adjacent territory 
 of the Punt Suchew, and the Konkan, who have, in like manner, 
 during the present year, (1827-28,) given employment to large de- 
 tachments from the troops in their vicinity.

 JAGHEERDARS, &c. 
 
 The nobles, and OFFICERS, under the GOVERNMENT of HY- 
 
 DRABAD. 
 
 Lineage of the Soobehdar of the Deccariy commonly, called the ISizam, 
 
 NiZAM-ooL-MooLK, Otherwise Asif Jah, the founder of the present dynas- 
 ty of Hydrabad, was deputed from Delhi, to the Deccan, as viceroy, in i7l3 ; 
 assumed sovereignty over all the Moghul possessions, south of the Nerbudda, 
 in 1723 ; and died at Boorhanpoor in March, 1748, in the 78th year of his age. 
 He left six sons, and six daughters, by various mothers. The eldest, legiti- 
 mate, daughter was married to Khajeh Baba Khan, the Soobehdar of Lahore, 
 and the younger to the Nuwab Mootuwussil Khan, afterwards the father of 
 Moozuffir Jung. 
 
 The eldest, legitimate, son, Ghazee-ood-deen, was, at the time of his father's 
 death, employed at Belhi, as his representative at court, and was confirmed 
 in the succession to his posts and honours. He assembled an army in 1752, 
 to assert his right to the musnud of Hydrabad, then occupied by Sulabhut 
 Jung; but having, oh his arrival at Aurungabad, accepted an invitation 
 from the mother of Nizam Ali, he ate of a poisoned dish, and died, in Sep- 
 tember of that year. 
 
 Nasir Jung, the second, or youngest, legitimate son, succeeded his father 
 in the Government of the Deccan, but was assassinated at Arcot, by Himmut 
 Bahadur, the Nuwab of Kurnool, in 1750. He was succeeded by his nephew, 
 Moozuffir Jung,* who reigned a few months, and was also assassinated by 
 the Patan Nuwabs. 
 
 Sulabhut Jung, the third son, but eldest illegitimate, succeeded his ne- 
 phew, and reigned till 1762, when he was imprisoned at Beder, by his brother, 
 Nizam-ood-Dowla, otherwise Nizam Ali ; where he was strangled, it is said, 
 the following year. 
 
 Nizam Ali, the 5th son, succeeded to the throne in 1763; and, having been 
 concerned in many great political changes in India, died in 1803, after a long 
 reign, remarkable for vicissitude, intrigue, and crime. During his reign, the 
 Hydrabad dominions were greatly extended, and a distinct, perhaps perma- 
 nent, boundary acquired, by treaties with neighbouring states. 
 
 The fourth son, Busalut Jung, was appointed governor of Beejapoor, in 
 1756; but that province being ceded to the Mahrattas in 1760, the districts of 
 Adoni, Rachoor, and Guntoor, were granted to him in Jagheer. With Adoni 
 for his capital, he then endeavoured to establish an independent principality, 
 and his conquests from the Mahrattas, at length, gave him the Krishna for his 
 northern boundary, and Tippoo's dominions for his southern. 
 
 The sixth son, 'Moghul Ali Khan, otherwise Meer Moghul, took part with 
 Rugonath Rao, against his brother, in 1761 : but returned the following year, 
 and threw himself on his clemency : He commanded a division of the Ni- 
 zam's army in 1786, in the war against Tippoo ; was some time after commit- 
 ted to prison at Beder ; and was enlarged in 1796, by his nephew, Ali Jah, 
 then in rebellion ; when he returned to reside at Hydrabad. He left one son. 
 
 Of the six sons of Nizam-ool-Moolk, descendants of two of them only, are 
 of any consideration in the Deccan : viz. of Nizam Ali, and Busalut Jung. 
 Gazee-ood-deen, however, left a son, named Meer Shaboodeen, who succeeded 
 
 * Moozuffir Jung was the first prince in India, that made a subsidiary engagement with an 
 European po^'er. He subsidized the party under M. Bussy, and assigned the northern cir- 
 cars for their payment. 
 
UNDER THE GOVERNMENT OF HYDRABAD. 33 
 
 to his father's posts, and honors, at Delhi ; and, shortly after, became vizier 
 of the empire. He was equally remarkable for talents, ambition, and wick- 
 edness : after bearing a conspicuous part, in the troubles and crimes of the 
 period, at Delhi, he is said to have visited the Deccan, and, as if to fill up 
 the measure of his guilt, suggested to the ill-fated Rugonath Rao, his 
 accession to power by the murder of his nephew, Narraen Rao. He after- 
 wards made a pilgrimage to Mecca, and, returning from thence, died at 
 Kalpee, in Hindoostan, in the jear A. D. 1800. He left a number of 
 children, but two only of his sons were legitimate, and they receive a pension 
 of 6,000 rupees a year, from the Nizam. Nizam Ali* had eight sons, by his 
 different wives. Ali Jah, the eldest, raised a rebellion, in 1796, against his 
 father, which was suppressed by the French Corps, under Monsieur Ray- 
 mond ; and Ali Jah fell into his hands : this officer was conveying his 
 prisoner to Court, widi the respect due to the heir apparent, hut, on the route, 
 having received orders from the minister to cover up the Howdah in which 
 the prince rode, after the manner of women, the prince, v.hether from shame, 
 grief, or despair, took poison. Sekuni:)Iir .Jah, the second son, and present 
 Nizam, commanded the Hydrabad contingent, which joined Lord Cornwallis, 
 in the war against Tippoo, in 1791 ; and succeeded his father on the musnud, 
 in 1803. The third son, Furreedoon Jah, together with his brother, Jum- 
 shaid Jah, who was the fifth son, are both deceased, and their sister is 
 married to the Nuwab, Shums-oo!-Oomra. The fourth son, Jehandur Jah, 
 is deceased. The sixth is Akber Jah, brother, by the same mother, to the 
 present Nizam : he is a Munsubdar of 12,000, and has a personal allowance 
 of 72,000 rupees a year. The seventh son is Sooleemun Jah. And Kywan 
 Jah, the eighth, or youngest, son, was born in July 1799. 
 
 Busalut Jung died in 17>i8, leaving three sous : the eldest, Mohubut Jung, 
 styled Dara Jah, galbntly defe2ided Adoni, in 1787, against Hydur Ali, 
 until succoured ; Adoni, however, was nearly destroyed, and Mohubut Jung 
 removed his residence to Rachoor, where he died in 1794. His second son is. 
 Roostum Jung; and third. Shah Boodee Khan. 
 
 Mohubut Jung left, on his death, one son, a minor, Ghoolam Hoossain 
 Khan ; in whose name a rebellion, against his feudal superior, the Nizam, 
 was raised in 1795, which was suppressed by the Hydrabad Subsidiary 
 Force : his fort, Rachoor, was reduced in March, 1796, and the whole of the 
 territory, acquired by Busalut Jung, now called the ceded districts, was, in 
 1800, transferred to the East India Company. 
 
 Sekundur Jah, who is at present on the throne, is styled the Nizam by 
 Europeans only ; his own subjects call him Bundeegan-i-Aalee, literally. 
 Slaves of the Most High. He has only one son by his marriage, named, Meer

 The late Azim-ool-Oomra, styled also Moosheer-ool-Moolk, the able 
 tninister of Nizam Ali, left no malelssue ; his only son having died before 
 him, leaving two daughters, one of ivhom is married to Sekundur Jah, the 
 present Nizara, and the other, who is illegitimate, to Shah Yar-ool-Moolk. 
 Azim-ool-Ocmra was born at Ellichpoor about 1734, began life on an ailow- 
 aiice of 50 rupees a month, and was one of the five persons, associated in the 
 murder of Hydur Jung, the dewan of the French party : during his ministry 
 the Nizara acquired an additional territorial revenue, principally by cessions, 
 or conquests, in Berar, and of Tippoo's territory, of ninety lanks of rupees. 
 In 1775 the minister, Rokun-oad-Dowla, was assassinated by Order of the 
 Nizam, and the powers of minister were entrusted to a commission of three 
 J cr-ions, viz. : Wukar-ood-Bowla^ Sumsam-ool-Moolk, and the Roy Royaun. 
 In ]783, Moosheer-ool-Moolk, was admitted to a share in this joint ministry, 
 in siiccession to Wukar-ood-l)owia, deceased; and gradually madelrimself 
 independent of his colleagues : henceforward he continued to conduct the 
 administraiioli of affairs at Hydrabad, (excepting in the year, 1795-96, 
 while he was a prisoner at Poena) till his death, which happenv-.d in May 
 1804. During his stay at Poena, he effected a treaty with the Pesliwa, by 
 which the territory and tribute, obtained by the Mahrattas, by the treaty of 
 Kurdla was again relinquished to the Nizam. He was the founder, and 
 constant promoter, of the Nizam's alliance with the British Government.

 division had been equipped at enormous expense, partly by wealthy indfw- 
 duals, of this sect, in Hydrabad ; but they fled, panic struck, from the field 
 at the onset, leaving their standard, to be picked up by the Mahrattas : 
 Muzzufir-ool-Moolk, in this emergency, took the place of his elephant 
 director, who was killed, and shewed a noble example to the Moghuls, toge- 
 ther with his nephews, Shah Yar-ool-Moolk, Munsoor-ood-Dowla, and

 small portion only of the pay of the chiefs' party; uho, in such c^ses, generally hold assign- 
 ments upon other lands. Indeed, though the annual military charges of the Hydrabad Stale 
 exceed .''JSO lacks of rupees, not more than one fourth of this an.ount is defrayed from lands, 
 formally granted in Jagheer: on the other hand, we may couclude, that Ite civil officers, whq

 was directed to act, with Soobhan Khan, against the Pindarries. 
 
 Mahomed Dawood Khan, is son to the elder brother of the father of Mu- 
 nuwur Khan, the present Nuwab of Kurnool. He receives 17,000 rupees a 
 year from the Treasury, as a compensation for his family Jagheer, which was 
 resumed, besides a pension from the Nuwab of Kurnool. He is a respectable 
 man, and of some consideration. He has a younger brother, named Khizr 
 Khan, who has a command in Chundoo Lall's party. 
 
 LoDEE Khan, a Munsubdar of 4,000, has a party of 105 horse; his Ja- 
 gheer is rated at 86,836 rupees, of which 63,976 rupees are for the support of 
 
40 JAGHEERDARS, &C. 
 
 his party, and 22,860 rupees are personal. He has two sons, Mahboob Khan, 
 and Poordil Khan. 
 
 Nadee Ali Beg Khan, a Munsubdar of 400. He holds Jagheer assign- 
 ments upon the Pergunna of Koheer, amounting to 18,783 rupees, for the sup- 
 port of a corps of infantry, which does duty at the Nizam's palace. His son, 
 Hussun Ali Beg, has a Jagheer of 1,600 rupees a year. 
 
 Meer Abbas Ali Khan, Urzbegee, or receiver of petitions, a master of the 
 ceremonies. This officer has a personal grant, of 1,800 rupees a year, upon 
 Pergunna Bovvangeer; and an assignment for troops, upon Pergunna Hut- 
 noor, amounting to 46,000 rupees. He is brother of Kusheed-ood-Dowla. 
 
 NooR Mahomed Khan, styled Ali Yar-ood-Dowla, has the Pergunna of 
 Alood, estimated at 1,39,000 rupees, made over to him, for the payment of

 DiLAWuR Khan, Urzbegee to Chundoo Lall, has assignments upon the 
 Pergunna of Anbural, amounting to 33,000 rupees, for the support of troops. 
 
 HussiN Ali Khan, and Bakir Ali Khan, are two of the five sons of the 
 late Talib-ood-Dowla, appointed Kotwal of Hydrabad, in 1796; which office 
 he held under three administrations. As he boasted of having no principle, 
 his own character, and the state of the police of Hydrabad, may be judged of. 
 Hussin Ali Khan has assignments for troops, upon Pergunna Neiloor, rated at 
 62,000 rupees ; he is also Killadar of Goolbal, and receives 5,733 rupees for 
 its support. Bakir Ali Khan has Jagheers, rated at 6,000 rupees. 
 
 Mahomed Sahib, Talookdar of Kunukgeeree, born about 1789, is son of 
 Sultan Meeah, who came, as a merchant, from Hindoostan to Hydrabad ; in 
 which capacity he acquired great wealth : He is also Peerzada, or spiritual 
 director, to the Punnee Puttans. His party, consisting of 542 horse, is paid 
 from the revenue of the Pergunna of Kunukgeeree, which is rated at 1,56,000 
 rupees, and some villages, amounting to 14,000 rupees more. Meer Kuleel 
 Oola, his brother-in-law, has a Jagheer, (Kusba Cheete,) rated at 20,200 ru- 
 pees. 
 
 Jan Mahomed, (1816 A. D.) commands a corps of 1,428 Infantry, originally 
 formed out of the remains of the French Corps of Mons. Raymond, in which he 
 was a Soobehdar: his men are distributed, some at the Nizam's palace,

 Jug Jeewan Doss is the Vakeel of the Nuwab of Arcot, which office has 
 been held by his family, since 1767. He is a well informed, and respectable 
 man. He has a personal Jagheer in Nurkhora Pergunna, rated at 950 rupees. 
 
 KoowiN Nain Singh, succeeded his father. Raja, Puddum Singh, as Killa- 
 dar of Kowlass, a fort thirty miles N. of Beder ; and has an assignment upon 
 the district, rated at 20,046 rupees, for its support. 
 
 TRIBUTARIES to the NIZAM. 
 
 The Raja of Shorapoor, Pid Naik, (commonly called the Ramoosij Raja ; 
 himself and the greater part of his subjects, being of the Ramoosy tribe.) The 
 ancestor of this chief, having aided Aurungzeeb, in the subjugation of the 
 Beejapoor State, of which he was a subject, was then made a Raja, and a 
 Royal Munsubdar of 5,000. The district of Shorapoor is situated, between 
 
TRIBUTARY TO THE NIZAM. 41 
 
 tlie Kistna and the Bheema, immediately above their junction, and is about 
 forty-five miles from east to west, its greatest length. The Raja purcliases a 
 nominal independence, by paying an annual tribute to both the Nizam, and 
 Peshwa (1816) ; the first receives 1,45,000 rupees, the latter claims 85,000 ru- 
 pees, and each, also, levies a fine, on the accession of a new raja. His fami- 
 ly, and also his principal dependents, are Ramoosies. His revenues, formerly, 
 amounted to eight lacks of rupees ; but they do not now exceed six lacks. In 
 1802 the troops, which the Raja had collected, to resist the Nizam's army, 
 were estimated at 4,000 cavalry, 8,000 infantry, and 4,000 Behdurs, or Ra- 
 moosies, who form a Militia, but are employed only when urgently required. 
 He probably has not now above 2,000 men, in regular pay. His principal 
 forts are Shorapoor, Wakunkhera, Windroog, and Gurketah. 
 
 The Raja of Gudwaul, Seetaram Bopaul, is of the Koonbee, or cultivating, 
 class. The district of Gudwaul is situated between the Kistna and Toong- 
 budra, just above their junction, and extends about 30 miles from north to 
 south. The accession of his ancestor to rank, and his own relative situation 
 towards the Nizam and Peshwa, appear to be similar to that of the Raja of 
 Shorapoor. The revenues may be about four lacks of rupees a year ; the 
 tribute, which the Nizam claims, is 1,20,000 rupees: the Peshwa (1816) 
 claims only (7,500 rupees. The Raja has 500 troops in constant pay, and 
 about 1,000 Behdurs. His principal forts are Gudwaul, Dawur, Borepelly, 
 and Nizamkoonda. 
 
 The ZUMEENDARS in the EASTERN part of the NIZAM'S 
 
 COUNTRY. 
 
 Raja, Sawaie Ash war ao, Zumeendar of Pallooncha on the Godavery, 
 and a Royal Munsubdar. The family held the Talooka of Pallooncha in 
 Jagheer, and were obliged to maintain a party of peons in the Fort of 
 Kumummet. The present Raja has a small district assigned to him, for his 
 maintenance, worth about 10,000 rupees a year; the rest of the estate, worth 
 above a lack of rupees, is now under the management of the Government. 
 The Raja's rights have not been entirely abolished; he still retains his titles, 
 &c. and may be restored to his estate, at the pleasure ot the Government. 
 
 Kona Rao, Zumeendar of Elgundel, a powerful chieftain, retaining above 
 1,000 followers, and able to raise twice that number, on any emergency, till 
 1819, when his forts were reduced by Major Pitman, with the regular troops 
 under British officers, and himself expelled ; he remained a fugitive in the 
 forests, to the east of the Godavery, for a short time, and was then brought 
 in on Kowl : he is now under restraint at Hydrabad. His estates are 
 mortgaged to Ameen-ool-Moolk, (Tarameeah,) on account of private debts, 
 under guarantee of the Nizam's Government. Kona Rao was, for many 
 years, refractory, and derided the efforts of the irregular troops, which he was 
 well able to do, from the strength of his country, and the number, and 
 bravery of his followers. He used also to plunder the country, for a great 
 distance around. Elgundel is about eighty miles N. of Hydrabad ; and the 
 petty Zumeendars in its neighbourhood are always ready to join in any 
 rebellion against the Government. 
 
 The Son of the late Jugputh Rao, of Mulyal, holds half share of 
 the same Zumeendary with Kona Rao ; his father was also powerful, and 
 used to ravage the neighbouring districts. 
 
 The Family of the Gonewar-Zumeexdars of Chinnoor, on the God- 
 avery, in Aramgeer circar, were very powerful, and almost independent, till 
 reduced in 1821, or 22, by the Russell Brigade, under Major Pitman. They

 could raise four thousand followers, and generally kept up about two thou- 
 sand; and were the very scourge of the districts, surrounding; their estate for 
 many miles. The family is divided into four branches, their estates, collective- 
 ly, are worth about three lacks ol rupees, and are held under a tributary tenure 
 paying fo Government 72,000 rupees a year. The estate is now under the 
 immediate management of the Government officers. Some individuals of 
 the family reside m the district ; some are in confinement at Hydrabad ; and 
 others are living in the EUore Circar, as fugitives : they may be restored 
 at the pleasure of His Highness, or of his Minister, Raja Chundoo Lall. 
 This family is closely allie 1 with, and related to, that of Kona Rao, and the late 
 Jugputh Rao, of Mulyal ; they are all of the Elma, or Elmewar, cast, which, 
 like the Rajpoots in Hindoostan, forms the soldiery of Tellingana, and claim 
 descent from Purtub Rudhur, one of the last Kings of Warangol, of the 
 Beylal dynasty, but not legitimately. 
 
 The Family of Sewdasheo Riddey, are still residing in the Maiduck 
 Circar, but in very reduced circumstances. This chief, formerly the powerful 
 Zumeendar of Maiduck, it will be recollected was an associate in Ali Jah's 
 rebellion in 1795. His son raised a rebellion, about two years ago, which was 
 suppressed by the Nizam's regular troops ; but he was not taken, and is still 
 a fugitive and rebel. 
 
 DISTRICTS OF SURAT. 
 
 o^^^ The Nuwab of Surat, Meer Ufzool-ood-Deen feiiua, Buhadoor, styled 
 -^----.^^aho Hushmut Jun^, has independent authority over those families, which 
 resiclFupon his" estate. He has about 1,600 Beegas of land, about three hun-

 Mahrattas, under the nephew of Dumajee Rao Gaekwar, expelled the Nuwab, 
 Sufdur Khan, then Foujdar, who escaped to Thutha, in Smde, by way of Bom- 
 bay. This was the time the Mahrattas obtained their first fooling, in Surat. 
 The revenue was div?'.ed into three shares ; one was assigned to the Bukshee, 
 to defray the debts, due to Hafiz Musao^d Khan, an Abyssinian, of great 
 wealth, and son-in-law to the Seedee, then chief of Dhunda-Rajpooree; an- 
 other was made over to the Mahrattas, and formed part of the cessions, made 
 oC «-^ f^ ^y th® Peshwa to the Britiish Government, by the treaty of Basseen, in 1802 ;

 "^"^"^^ the Company took the Nuwab's share into their own hands, and made the pro-

 war broke out, between Musaood and Syed Achun ; when the latter, after be- 
 , ing besieged in the CHStle for eight months, was induced to visit his opponent, 
 who seized, and embarked him for Bombay, whence he proceeded to thjP 
 Peshwa at Poona, by whose aid he was afterwards restored. -^^</- /Xx!v<^«^^<:^

 Raja of Mandavee, Huraeersiughjee Doorjunsinghjee, is a Rajpoot. 
 Doorjunsingh, an ancestor of this chief, presented a Nuzur, of 5,000 rupees 
 to the Peshwa, in 1761 ; which appears to be the earliest record of this family, 
 at Poona. Doorjunsingh's party was then one hundred horse ; but it was 
 reduced to fifty, by Rugonath Rao; and afterwards increased to seventy-five, 
 by Mahdco Rao. In 1767 the Peshwa exacted 30,000 rupees, upon a 
 Surunjam Puttee ;* and in 1774, a further sum of 60,000 rupees, from Bhug- 
 wunt Singh, then manager of the estate. On Bhugwunt Singh's death, in 
 1776, the widow of Doorjun Singh adopted Gooman Singh, and presented a 
 Nuzur of 30,000 rupees. t Gooman Singh adopted Doorjun Singh, who suc- 
 ceeded in A. D. 1787, when the Nuzur paid was 75,000 rupees. Doorjun 
 Singh died in December, 1814, and was succeeded by his second cousin, 
 Humeer Singh, the present Raja. The revenue is rated at 1,80,000 rupees ; 
 80,000 of which is grass, or black-mail, collected from the British, and 
 Gaekwar, territories. He pays a tribute of 60,000 rupees 10 the British Gov- 
 ernment. The estate is situated on the north bank of the Taptee ; the chief 
 town contains about two thousand houses; and the inhabitants are princi- 
 pally Bheels of the predatory tribe. He keeps up about fifteen horse, and 
 thirty-five Sebundies. 
 
 The Raoul of Bansda, Oode Singhjee Rae Singhjee, a Rajpoot. His coun- 
 try is extremely jungly, and commences about the bottom of the Rhowra Ghat. 
 His chief town and consists of two or three hundred huts, the walls of which 
 are mostly constructed of bamboo wicker-work, sometimes plastered over. He 
 can command about one thousand bowmen among his subjects, but they are 
 peaceably inclined, or timid, and much employed in the distillation of a spiritu- 
 ous liquor, called Mhowra. His revenue is rated at 60,000 rupees, and he pays a 
 tribute^ of 7,800 rupees to the British Government. In 1758, Oode Singh first 
 paid chouth, to the Poona state, 4,500 iupees. He died in 1762, and was suc- 
 ceeded by Zoorawur Singh, when the chouth was fixed at 7,600 rupees. The 
 Peshwa's officer interfered in the affairs of the estate in 1779, and put Keerut 
 Singh in possession of it, exacting a Nuzur of 20,000 rupees, besides 12,800 
 rupees for military charges. In 1791 Veehur Singh, the son of Zoorawur 
 Singh, died, and his half brother, Neahur Singh, succeeded, paying a Nuzur 
 of 29,000 rupees : the son of the latter now has the estate. See Itinerary, 
 page 20. 
 
 The Rana of Dhurumpoor, otherwise of Ramnugur, Veejydeo Roopdeo. 
 a Rajpoot. The earliest record of this chief, at Poona, is dated 1779, wheri 
 
 * A Surunjam Puttee commutes the service of the party, for the money required for its pay- 
 ment. This order, or Puttee, was occasionally sent upon chiefs, when the Government want- 
 ed money, rather than troops. 
 
 f Nuzurs (fines, or fees,) paid on succession to property, is a branch of revenue. A son, 
 succeeding his father in a freehold estate, is not liable to this payment, unless in cases of 
 adoption : a Jagheerdar, or other servant of Government, is always liable to it, on being con- 
 firmed : a Nuzur, however, is not limited to this meaning. 
 
 X The tribute, or chouth, of Bansda, and also of Dhurumpoor, was transfen'ed to Ibe 
 Honorable Company by the Treaty of Basaeen, concluded 31st December, 180?. 
 
44 BHEEL RAJAS, AND WUSSAWAS. 
 
 15,000 rupees was exacted from the Rana, Koour Singh. In 1784, Somdeo, 
 then Rana, died, and his son, Roopdeo, was confirmed in the estate. Three 
 years after, the Rana having displaced Oomed Singh, the manager of the 
 family, to make way for Lukshmun Mallee, a menial servant, the former 
 appealed to the Peshwa, promising at the same time a Nuzur of 5,000 
 rupees, and the Rana was directed to restore him. In 1801 an order (Surunjam 
 Puttee) was sent upon the Rana, by the Peshwa, for 50,000 rupees, which 
 demand being resisted, a force was sent against him from Basseen, which 
 compelled payment. His territory, which is a thick forest, with scarcely any 
 cultivation, lies between the Gaekwar's districts, and those of the Raja of 
 Penth, and is rated at 1,40,000 rupees : the Company have a share in the 
 transit duties, and have custom chokees in the cowntiy. His Military Force 
 consists of about 150 Arabs and Mewattees, and sixty horsemen, besides 
 which he can assemble, nearly, 500 Kolee bowmen. The heir is about eight 
 years of age. 
 
 The Raja of Rajpepla, Veheerisaljee Narsinghjee, is a tributary to the 
 Gaekwar, to whom he pays 60,000 rupees per annum. His territory is about 
 one hundred miles in length, by nearly as great a breadth. His present 
 revenue is rated at 2^ lacks of rupees, including his Tora grass, or black- 
 mail, on the British territories. He maintains about one thousand troops, 
 besides bowmen. 
 
 The Wusawa of Wadee, Race Singh, can command about two thousand 
 bowmen on his estate, which lies north-west of Mandavee. 
 
 The Raja of Dang, or the Wusawa, styled Silput, entertains about 
 three thousand bowmen. 
 
 The Wusawa (head Bheel) Koonvaria, has under his control about three 
 thousand bowmen ; he lives at Sookhbura, or Sagbaree, about six miles from 
 the north bank of the Taptee, and on the east of Wadee. 
 
 The Wusawa, Jeewa, resides on the north bank of the Tappee, towards 
 Khandes, and has about two thousand bowmen. This chief was, formerly, a 
 distinguished freebooter in Khandes : having, afterwards, carried his depre- 
 dations into the Company's Pergunna of Unkuleshwur, (Ocklaseer,) the 
 Gaekwar detached a force against him, in 1814, which drove him to extremity; 
 but not until the Rajpepla territory was nearly depopulated, and five thousand 
 houses were reduced to ashes. 
 
 Chowdree, Nuhana Bhaee, lives at Nuldhura, a village in the Muhoowa 
 Pergunna (Gaekwar's), and keeps about five hundred bowmen. 
 
 The Wusawa, Ramjee, lives at Sisodra, a village in the Unkuleshwur 
 (Ocklaseer) Pergunna, and has under him fifty, or sixty, bowmen, employed 
 as Burtinuyas, or Watchmen, in villages of the Unkuleshwur, and Hansot, 
 Pergunnas. 
 
 The Wusawa, Huriya, lives at Wutaria, a village of the Raj ; and has 
 about two hundred bowmen under him, distributed also in Hansot, and 
 Unkuleshwur Pergunnas, and some in the Raj. 
 
 The Wusawa, Cheediya, has under him an hundred, or one hundred and 
 twenty, bowmen, employed in the Gaekwar's Wusravee, and Ghulla, Per- 
 gunnas. He resides at Kuntwa. 
 
 The Wusawa, Jeriya, lives at Asurma-Kunukpoor, in the Wusravee 
 Pergunna, and keeps up about seventy-five bowmen, also distributed in the 
 Wusravee, and Ghulla, Pergunnas. 
 
 The Wusawa, Hansla, lives at Kurunjun, a village of the Ghulla Per- 
 gunna, and has five hundred bowmen, employed under the command of the 
 
The following is extracted from an account of the Bheels in the 
 same region as those on the omfositej^age^ but communicated 
 after the work had been struck^Z 
 
 The following Bheel Chiefs, viz. Raee-Singh of Wadee, Kelea Wulvee of 
 Goowalee, Koonwureya of Stokhbarry, and the Wusawa of Gungtha, ac- 
 knowledge the Raja of Rajpeepla as Lord-paramount. The energies of Jeewa 
 emancipated him from all control of the Rajpeepla Raja, and he had won 
 and established his independence at the period at which he entered into an 
 engagement with the British Government, when it took possession of Khan- 
 desh. 
 
 Chundur Singh of Bodowul, is about three koss north of the Taptee, 
 and ten from Nundoorbar, is of an ancient family related to the Rajpeepla, 
 CAo^a-Oodeepoor, Burwaney, and Dhurumpoor Rajas, formerly, and many 
 Bheel Naiks were under the control of this family, Raja Parwee, and 
 Pahancheya Parwee, who can assemble about 500 Bheel bowmen, they have 
 each an allowance of 200 rupees, and the Raja himself a thousand rupees 
 annually, paid regularly monthly from the British Government. 
 
 The Wusawa of Wadee. This person is known by the name of Raeesing 
 Naik, and is father-in-law to Koorwurya Wusawa, of Sagbaree, or Sookh- 
 bal-ry : he may command aboui 200 bowmen, but he possesses little influence 
 even over them. 
 
 The Raja of Dang, or the Wusawa styled Silput. — Silput Raja is the 
 principal of the Dang chieftains, and is a young man of about 26 years of 
 age. Khem Raja, the uncle of Silput Raja, is about 50 years old, a shrewd 
 sensible man, possessing great influence over Silput. There are other petty 
 chiefs in the Dang district, who acknowledge the supremacy ot Khem and 
 Silput Raja. Silput has from 60 to 80 Sebundies, and can levy about 3,000 
 bowmen. 
 
 KooNwuRYA THE WusAWA OF SooKHBARRY, formcily a notorious freeboot- 
 er, and one of the last who was brought under the control of the British Gov- 
 ernment, enjoys a nemnookh, or fixed allowance. He resides at Sookhbarry, 
 and can command the services of from two to three thousand bowmen ; he has 
 about 40 Arabs, Sindians, and Hubshee, in his employ, some of whom are 
 mounted. This chief is the most active, enterprising, and intelligent of any 
 of the Naiks ; he writes Goojratee, but is greatly addi<5ted to liquor : his con- 
 duct has, since his being admitted to terms, been generally peaceable, but it 
 is believed that he connives at the mal-practices of his followers. He is sup- 
 posed the wealthiest of all the Bheels. 
 
 KooNwuNTHA WusAWA OF GuNGTHA, SOU of the famous Jeewa Wusawa, 
 resides at Chicklee, on the north bank of the Taptee : this family, and that of 
 the Wusawas of Sookhbarry, have a blood feud, Jeewa having put to death 
 the father of the present chieftain ; — they are relations. The Gungtha family 
 have acted with uniform good faith to the British Government, and have had 
 a liberal allowance granted to them. They are employed actively in preser- 
 ving the peace of the country. The family possess much hereditary influence, 
 and for purposes of aggression, could readily command the whole Bheei 
 population. 
 
 The following observations on the Bheels in Meywar, and which 
 apply, as far as lean learn, to the same people, spread over the 
 countries further south, have just been communicated to me by 
 a gentleman employed in Rajpootana. 
 
 That the Bheels were the original inhabitants of the country now inhabited 
 by the Rajpoots, there can be little doubt. In addition to the proofs men- 
 
 f2 
 
tioned by Sir John-Malcolm I may add one whicli seems to point out that 
 the connexion between the Bheels and Rajppots is that of conquerors and 
 conquered.* On the succession of a prince to the Gaddee of Oodeepoor, a 
 Bheel is the principal actor in the investiture. He places the Teeka on the 
 Ranah's forehead, and the material used for this purpose is his own (the 
 Bheers) blood. This is a very remarkable circumstance, as the Bheels on 
 every other occasion are carefully excluded from the Durbar— indeed they are 
 considered as out-casts, and even their Principal Chief in this part of the 
 country, the How (for he claims that title,) of Jowas though he be a Gassiah, 
 i. e. a descendant from a Rajpoot father by a Bheel mother, was refused 
 admittance to the presence of the Ranah. There can be little doubt but that 
 the above ceremony is emblematical of the sovereigns of this country holding 
 their territories by right of conquest. 
 
 A more bloody proof of this connexion also exists — when a Ranah has 
 occasion to pass the Muhee River an individual of a tribe descended from a 
 Chowan Rajpoot by a Bheel mother is sacrificed — ^his throat being cut and 
 his body thrown into the river This sacrifice has once been performed during 
 the lifetime of the present Ranah. 
 
 Throughout Central India the Bheels answer the description of that ex- 
 communicated clan " the children of the mist." They lead the same preda- 
 tory life, and many are still the inroads they make upon the plain, levying 
 black mail upon the inhabitants, carrying oflf cattle and whatever comes ia 
 their way. 
 
 ,*.TheEaja of Maudavee, Dhurumpoor, Bansda, &c. are Rajpoots, but their subjects are 
 Bheds.

 The Gaekwar, Syajee Rao, styled Sena Klias Kheyl, and Shumsher Ba- 
 hadur, The founder of this family was Dumajee GaekM^ar, a distinguished 
 offioef under Dhabary, the Suenaputee; he died in 1720, and was suc- 
 ceeded by his nephew, Peelajee, who, with Kantajee Kuddum Bandy, conti- 
 nued, -as Lieutenants under the Suenaputee, to make annual inroads into 
 Gujerat. each being at the head of an army. In 1724, a new Viceroy being 
 appointed from Delhi over the province, to supersede Nizam-ool-Moolk, 
 HaiiiedKhan, his uncle, who was officiating as his deputy, called in the 
 Mabrattas, under Kantajee Kuddum, and gave hira battle, first near Ah- 
 medabad, and afterwards at Bussoo. The imperial trodps were led by 
 Shujaet Khan, the Foujdar of Surat, and new deputy Governor of the Pro- 
 vince, and his brother, Roostum Ali Khan, the Foujdar of Baroda and 
 Pitlaud, who were considered the bravest oflicers of their time ; they were 
 both killed, and the imperial army was annihilated. Peelajee Gaekwar, by 
 whose treachery, in affecting to join Roostum Ali at Bussoo, the overthrow 
 of the latter had been caused, received, as a reward, the chouth of that part 
 of the province, east of the Muhee river, including the Mahals dependant 
 on Surat ; while Kantajee had conferred upon him the chouth, v/est of that 
 river. The Suenaputee, Trimbuk Rao Dhabary, arrived shortly after from 
 the Deccan, and led the whole of the Mabrattas, in the province, to the siege 
 of Canibay ; where, a quarrel having arisen among themselves, a battle 
 ensued, and Trimbuk Rao was slain. Ooman Baee, widow of Khundee Rao 
 Dhabary, and mother of the infant Suenaputee, Yeswunt Rao, seems on this 
 to have been vested with the conduct of the family interests in Gujerat, with 
 Kantajee and Peelajee as her deputies. The latter was assassinated, in 1731, 
 by emissaries of Abhee Singh, the Raja of Joudpoor, who had been appointed 
 from Delhi Soobehdar of the Province ; and, in 1732, Ooman Baee displaced 
 Kantajee Kuddum from collecting the chouth of the Ahmed abad side of the 
 Muhee, and placed the whole chouth of the province under Dumajee Gaek- 
 war, the son of Peelajee. In this year Baroda, in which Momin Khan 
 commanded for Sher Khan Babi, who ofliciated as Foujdar for his late 
 fat|ier-in-law. Sirdar Mahomed Khan, was besieged during his absence, and 
 taJcen, after a brave defence, by Dumajee Gaekwar, who defeated the army 
 approaching under Sher Khan Babi, to its relief; and Baroda became, 
 thenceforth, the seat of Government of the Gaekwar family. The devoted 
 province of Gujerat, which for so many years had been a constant field of 
 bloodshed, and oppression, arising out of the weakness, and constant chang- 
 ing of the imperial officers, and the absence of all principle in their annual 
 visitors, the Mabrattas, who never sought a reason to justify an attack upon 
 a weaker power, was destined to change masters. The combined Mahratta 
 forces, under Rugonath Rao, (otherwise, Rugoba Dada, father of the Ex- 
 Peshwa Bajee Rao) and Dumajee Rao Gaekwar, in 1755,* laid siege to Ah- 
 medabad ; which, after a gallant defence, conducted by Juwan Murd Khan 
 Babi, capitulated ; from which day the royal authority over the province 
 ceased, and was divided between the Peshwa and Gaekwar. Dumajee 
 
 * I have taken most of the dates from Grant Duff, the facts principally from Mac 
 Murdo ; not having troubled myself, to examine Manuscripts on points, in which the»e 
 respectable officers differ. It is subject for regret, that the late Captain Mac Murdo'g 
 account of the early, annual, incursions of the Mabrattas, into Gujerat, is not published. I 
 am indebted to it for the greater part of the next two or three pages.

 commanded a division in the disastrous expedition to Hindoostan, in 17'^0 
 and was present at Paniput, from which he escaped, and died at Baio. jq 
 1768; leaving four sons, the eldest of whom, Syajee, was an ideot, Hn:i tue 
 remaining three reigned in succession : two of Dumajee's sons, viz. Syi.jee 
 and Futteh Sing, married ladies of the family of Kuddum Bandy. Govn d 
 Rao, the second son, but the last on the gaddee, died in 1800, kavin- three 
 legitimate children, the two elder of whom nave successively rei>.',ne(i, and 
 passed away, and the youngest, Syajee, is now at the head of the Government. 
 His eldest son is named Rao Sahib. The Gaekwar's share of the revenues of 
 Gujerat are rated at 75,00,000 rupees per annum. 
 
 The efficient military establishment of the Gaekwar Government is the 
 Subsidiary Force, which consists of five regiments of infantry, completed to 
 800 men each, two regiments of cavalry, and a company of artillery. The 
 maintenance of this force has been provided for by territorial cessions, as de- 
 termined by treaty with the British Government in 1818. By the same treaty, 
 he also engages to keep up a contingent of 3,000 irregular horse, which ^ to 
 act, as occasion may require, with the Subsidiary Force. Other troops are 
 maintained, for the purposes of revenue collections, and police. 
 
 Tributaries of the British and Gaekwar Government, 
 
 The Nuwab, or Dewan, of Pahlunpoor, Futteh Khan. He derives 
 his descent from a tribe of Afghans, who, according to the Akbar Namu, 
 occupied Bahar in the reign of Humayoon, Emperor of Delhi : hence the 
 family name of Beharee, or Veharee. The tribe, it would appear, afterwards 
 took possession of Jalore, in Malwa ; and their chief, Bahaioor Khan, was 
 confirmed, as Foujdar, by Abkar : which office remained, hereditary, in the 
 family, to the reign of Aurungzeeb. This Prince, in order to accommodate 
 his differences with Ajeet Sing, Durakdass, and other rebellious chieftains, 
 of Marwar, transferred Jalore to them, dispossessing the Beharees, who were 
 obliged to remove to Pahlunpoor and Deesa ; the office of Foujdar over these 
 places having been, previously, granted to them. Phar Khan, Jaloiee, who 
 was Foujdar in 1735, was obliged to pay one lack, as tribute, to the Mah- 
 rattas ; but joined Momin Khan, the imperial officer in 1737, and 1739, and 
 took part against them. Buhadoor Khan was Foujdar in l'?59, Mhen 
 Pahlunpoor was besieged by the Mahrattas, under Sudasheo Ramchunder ; 
 to whom, after a month's fighting, during which the whole of his country 
 was plundered, and laid waste, he was obliged to pay 35,000 rupees. Some 
 Bramins of Jalore still do homage, yearly, to the Dewan, for villages 
 received from his ancestors. The present Dewan is son of Feroze Khan, 
 who was murdered by a faction of Sindhee Jemadars, in 1813. The revenue is 
 rated at 2i lacks of rupees, of which 50,000 is paid, as tribute, to the 
 Gaekwar. Deesa is a dependency. 
 
 The Nuwab of Deesa, Shumshere Khan, was appointed guardian to his 
 nephew, Futteh Khan of Pahlunpoor, through British influence, in 1813 : 
 he was persuaded also, having no male heirs, to relinquish all claims to 
 Pahlunpoor, on his own account, to give his only daughter to Futteh Khan, 
 and to constitute him heir to his Deesa possessions. 
 
 The Nuwab of Radhunpoor and Summee, ZoorawurKhan Babi. The Babi* 
 family appears to have been ancient and powerful in Gujerat. An ancestor, 
 Sher Khan Babi, was Thanadar of the district of Chowaul, in 1659; and, in 
 1713, JuwanMurd Khan, a grandson, was appointed Foujdar of Radhunpoor: 
 he had several sons, the elder of whom, bearing the same name, is conspicuous, 
 in the annals of the period, in Gujerat. He was appointed, by the Soobehdar 
 of the Province, Mobaruz-ool-Moolk, Foujdar of Summee and Moonjpoor in 
 
 * See the Nuwab of Balasinore.

 1726; and Mahomed Anwur, his brother, was at the same time appointed 
 Foujdar of Radhunpoor. In 1731, Jnwan Murd Khan had the Foujdaree 
 of Beeruns^aoui conferred upon him, by Abhee Sing^h, then Soobehdar ; in 
 reward for his success, in negociatiug a peace with the widow of the Suena- 
 putee, and had assembled an army, to avenge the assassination of her deputy, 
 Peelajse Gaekwar : he was then actinsj as Foujdar of Baroda, for his late 
 father-in-law, Sirdar Mahomed Khan ; but chanced to be absent, when it was 
 besieged, and taken, by the Mahrattas in the following year. He also farmed 
 the Pergunnas of Kuree and Beejapoor ; and in 1733, being unable to 
 realize sufficient to pay the rent, from the distressed state of the country, he 
 proceeded on a plundering excursion into Eedurwara. While he was be- 
 sieging Eedur, the Mahrattas, under Ranoojee Sindhia, and Holkar, unex- 
 pectedly arrived, on their way from Malwa into Gujerat, and took part with 
 the besieged, and exacted a large fine from Juwan Murd Khan, detaining 
 liis brother, Zoorawur Khan, as a hostage, for its payment. He was appoint- 
 ed Foujdar of Puttun by Momin Khan in 1736, who had, by a royal decree, 
 been appointed to the Nizamut. In short, after an active participation in the 
 troubles, and excesses, of the period, he at length, on the death of Momin 
 Khan, in 1743, assumed charge of the Soobeh, ostensibly for Abdool-Uzeez- 
 Khan, then Killadar of Joonere, who had been appointed from Delhi. This 
 Soobehdar, however, when on his march from the Deccan, was encountered, 
 and defeated near the Kim Kutodra, and slain by his pursuers, while at- 
 tempting to cross the Nerbudda on horseback. Fukhir-ood-Dowla was then 
 sent from Delhi, to succeed as Soobehdar, having paid a Peshcush of two lacks 
 of rupees; after evincing great valour and exertion, and being deserted by Sher 
 Khan Babi, and Raja Rae Singh, of Eedur, with their troops, he was taken 
 prisoner by the Mahrattas, under Rungajee, the agent of Dumajee Gaekwar, 
 and auxiliary of Juwan Murd Khan. In 1746, Rungajee exerted himself to 
 reinstate Fukhir-ood-Dowla, and again persuaded Sher Khan Babi and Raja 
 Rae Singh, to join him; when they laid siege to Ahmedabad. Rungajee's 
 proceedings, however, were disapproved of by Dumajee, and Juwan Murd 
 Khan continued in charge of the Soobeh, till 1755, when the city was besieged 
 by the Mahrattas, and obliged to capitulate :* Juwan Murd Khan retired to 
 Puttun; but four years after he assisted in the second siege of Ahmedabad, when 
 it was defended by Momin Khan. Some years afterwards the heirs of Juwaa 
 Murd Khan, were deprived of Puttun, and some other places, by Dumajee, 
 who was desirous of weakening the power and influence of this family. The 
 present Nuwab succeeded his father, Sher Khan, in 1824 : he is the fourth, in 
 descent, from the second Juwan Murd Khan. His revenue is about 1,50,000 
 rupees a year, and he sends a horse and clothes, yearly, to the Gaekwar, in 
 token of being his tributary : he keeps up a Military establishment of about 
 sixty horse, and 550 infantry. 
 
 The Nuwab of Cambay, Bundeb Ali Khan, succeeded to his brother, 
 Futteh Ali Khan, in 1 822. These were sons of Momin Ali Khan, who was 
 related to, and succeeded Muftakhur Khan, as Mootusuddee of the Chowree- 
 assee, (or district of 84 villages,) of Cambay. Cambay, formerly the principal 
 seaport of Gujerat, is now the capital of a small compact territory, compre- 
 hended between the Muhee and Saburrauttee rivers, on the east and west, and 
 
 * The following is a copy of the first part of the 1st and 3rd articles of the Treaty ; which, 
 was formally executed, and ratified by the usual binding forms. 
 
 *' Treaty of Balajee Bajeerao, Peshwa, with Juwan Murd Khan Babi, from which no devia- 
 tion shall be made, so long as any of the descendants of that nobleman are in existence. 
 
 " 1st, The Pergunna of Puttun shall be given in Jagheer, unconditionallv, together with the 
 nine Mahals, in the Puttun district, viz. Burnugur, bumi, Moonjpoor, Beesulnugur, Tehrad, 
 Kheralloo, Dunpoor, Terwara, and Beejapoor, Szc.

 by the British and Gackwar possessions, on the north. The revenue is rated 
 at about 2,50,000 rupees ; the Chouth was ceded by the Peshwa, to the Com- 
 pany, in the treaty of Bassein, and is rated, in the schedule annexed to the 
 treaty, at 60,000 rupees. The company also possess half the customs, which, 
 last year, realized 34,096 rupees. 
 
 The dea^eneracy of their descendants should not operate, as a check, to 
 perpetuating the achievements of the illustrious dead ; and as it is my pur- 
 pose to notice more particularly those, whom others have passed over, let this 
 be my apology, for a longer notice of the first, as well as the second, Momia 
 Khan, otherwise styled Nujeem-ood Dowla. The first Momin Khan is con- 
 spicuous in the annals of Gujerat, from 1725, till he succeeded the Maharaja, 
 Abhee Singh, as Soobehdar of the province, in 1736. He retained this charge 
 till his death, which happened in 1743, when the care of the province, by a 
 royal Firman, was entrusted, jointly, to his son, Muftakhur Khan, and Fida- 
 ool-Deen Khan, who had been latterly his colleague. They were both ejected 
 by Juwan Murd Khan Babi, as soon as the purport of the Firman was kiiown, 
 when they retired to Cambay. In what relationship Nujeem-ood-Dowla 
 stood, to the first Momin Khan, does not appear ; but he was Mootusuddee, 
 or chief of Cambay, in 1746, when he repulsed a force, sent from Ahmeda])ad 
 to subdue Cambay* A difference arising between the Gaekwar and Peshwa, 
 in 1748, the Nuwab requested the latter to send an agent, to collect the Mah- 
 ratta share of the revenue; and, from that day, the Peshwa had an interest 
 in the affairs of Cambay, to which the British Government has succeeded. 
 After beating off the Gaekwar forces, in 1753, he was unable to pay his troops 
 their arrears, and gave them leave to plunder a village, belonging to the Raja 
 of Limree. Finding that this violence was not noticed, he attacked Goga, 
 and exacted a Peshcush from it, and every other village on his route ; and, 
 next year, sent a force into Goelwar, and Katteeawar: and, in two months, 
 took Peshcush from all the Zumeendars of these provinces. In 1755-6 he sei- 
 zed upon Ahmedabad,* which, after a long seige, be yielded up to the Mah- 
 rattas, with whom it has since remained. In 1758 he was besieged in Cam- 
 bay, when he agreed to pay the Peshwa an annual fixed sum, of 10,000 ru- 
 pees, in lieu of the customs of the port. Momin Khan is said to have ob- 
 tained a Sunnud, for the Chowreeassee of Cambay, from the Emperor ; if so, 
 it is the only territory, I imagine, held upon an imperial tenure, in Gujerat. 
 His eldest son, Futteli Ali, succeeded him, and was at the head of the Gov- 
 ernment, when the Honourable Jonathan Duncan visited the place, in 1801. 
 
 The Raja of Eedur, Gumbheer Singh, is great grandson of Anund Singh, 
 who was a brother of Abhee Singh, the Raja of Joudpoor, and viceroy of 
 Gujerat, between 1731 and 1736. Anund Singh, together with his enterpri- 
 sing brother, Kae Singh, obtained possession of Eedur about this time. Anund 
 Singh was killed in action with the Mahrattas, in 1742, near his own fort. 
 Eedur wara, of which this is the capital, is a mountainous and jungly country, 
 inhabited principally by Bheels. 
 
 The Raja of Ahmednugur is a son of Sungram Singh, and grandson of 
 Anund Singh, the first Raja of Eedur. Raja Rae Singh, the brother of the 
 latter, joined the Mahrattas in 1740, but went over to the Soobehdar's side, 
 during the following year, when he had Ahmednugur, Amliara, &c. conferred 
 upon him, in Jagheer. 
 
 * I have followed Grant Duff, as to the date of the capture of Ahmedabad, in 1753 ; at the 
 «ame time, I must be permitted to observe, that Mac Murdo gives a journal of a siege in 1753, 
 conducted by Duraajee GaekwA*, and Rugonaih Rao; when the Royal authority was subver- 
 ted : and again, in 1757, when the siege was more obstinate, and of greater duration. The 
 ■defence was conducted, this last time, bv Nujeem-ood-Dowla, otherwise Momin Khan, ances- 
 tor of the present Nuwab of Cambay, who had obtained possession of the city ; and Juwan 
 Murd Khan Babi, was on this occasion iii the ranks of the besiegers. 
 
CHIEFS IN GUJERAT. 49 
 
 The Raja of Barreah, has retained his independence (paying tribute to 
 none) from the impervious nature of his country, a hiliy and jungly tract, 
 situated on the N. E. frontier of the Gaekwar possessions. His revenue is 
 small, consisting- principally of exactions, levied upon the villages of other 
 States around him, as the price of forbearance. The marauding parties of 
 Bheels, sent out from these wilds on former occasions, when their dues were 
 withheld, consisted usually of 7 or 800 bowmen, who drove off the cattle and 
 inhabitants, who were held for ransom. A small party of Sindhians, Arabs, 
 &c., partly on foot, and partly mounted, usually composed the rear guard in 
 the retreat. They advanced to the point, where they intended to commence 
 their depredations, under cover of ravines, taking along with them all travel- 
 lers, who discovered them, and plundered, as they retreated to their jungjes, 
 with a management and celerity, which baffled pursuit. 
 
 The Nuwab of Baiasinore, is a tributary of the British Government. 
 He is a descendant of an elder branch of the powerful family of Babi. The 
 earliest accounts we have of them are, that during the reign of the Emperor 
 Shah Jehan, Oosman Khan, a person high in authority at Delhi, obtained 
 for his two sons, Sher Khan, and Bahadur Khan, charge of the then distur- 
 bed Soobeh of Ahmedabad, and upon their subjugating the town and district 
 of Theraud, it was, with Baiasinore and Veerpoor, granted them in Jagheer. 
 Sher Khan died childless, and the property descended to his nephew Sufdur 
 Khan, and from him to his sons and grandsons. One of the latter, by name 
 Bahadur Khan, took forcible possession of Joonaguih from a Rajpoot, about 
 the beginning of the eighteenth century, another established himself, at a 
 latter period, at Puttun, and a third at Theraud, which, with Naundepoor, is 
 to the present day enjoyed by his descendants in Jagheer. Baiasinore and 
 Veerpoor continued appendages of the Joonagurh estate till circumstances in- 
 duced Bahadur Khan to send his eldest son, Sirdar Mahomed Khan, to Baia- 
 sinore, and dying shortly afterwards, his two younger children took possession 
 of the Joonagurh Gadee, without any opposition from 'their elder brother ; 
 since which each Gadee has descended to the posterity of the respective 
 families. The Baiasinore property, during Sirdar Mahomed Khan's lifetime, 
 yielded but a trifling income, and in the following reign, the period of its 
 greatest prosperity, the revenue was about 50,000 rupees. Till 1768 Baiasinore 
 remained independent, when it was made tributary to Ahmedabad, by the 
 Peshwa's Mamulutdar, who then fixed the tribute at 3,000 rupees, which he 
 afterwards increased to 10,000 rupees : his successor however experienced 
 difficulty in realizing this sum and brought an army before Baiasinore, but after 
 a six months siege the chief was obliged to submit, and since this period the 
 fixed tribute has be^n regularly paid by succeeding chieftains. In 1818 it 
 became ours by right of conquest from the Peshwa. 
 
 The Thakoor of Ghorasir, an ancient and powerful chieftain. This 
 family formerly resided at Huldee a village a little distance from Ghorasir, 
 on the bank of the river Watruck. Previous to tlie British sway, this chief 
 had made many of the surrounding villages tributary to him ; he in return 
 guaranteeing them protection against the incursions of other independant 
 chiefs. The custom of villages purchasing the protection of such chiefs by a 
 voluntary tribute prevailed much in Gujerat, and when this was not the case, 
 such a payment was forcibly demanded. The right to tribute from villages as 
 may be supposed, gave rise to much contention between the chieftains them- 
 selves, and their power fluctuated often with the caprice of their tributary 
 villages. This Thakoor is now, as indeed are all others in the Kaira Zilla, 
 quite peaceable. In lieu of their tributary payments. Government pay them 
 a given sum under the head of Girras. Their wanta lands, and other acknow- 
 ledged heriditary property, have been continued to them, and they are now 
 agents for Government in the Magisterial capacity ; conducting themselves 
 with every degree of propriety, and being overawed from committing excess, 
 they are reconciled to a system combining security to themselves, and their

 property, and which has conferred so much prosperity not only on the com- 
 munity in which they themselves reside, but has been also productive of 
 happiness to the inhabitant of the surrounding country. 
 
 The Thakoor of Sinnore is next in importance: Sinnore is about five 
 or six miles to the eastward of the town of Balasinore. What has been said 
 of the Thakoor of Ghorasir, equally applies to that of Sinnore ; the same 
 habits and pursuits actuated them alike in subduing, and bringing into 
 tribute, the surrounding country and minor chieftains. 
 
 The Thakoor of Ometta. Bahria Vijey Singh, is son of the late Nur- 
 sing,h Bahria. This Thakoor is of some importance and though a greater 
 person than that of Sinnore, cannot be said to be equal to that of Ghorasir. 
 The same remarks as above noticed with respect to the Thakoor of Ghorasir, 
 applies to this person. His yearly revenue is about 50,000 rupees, and he 
 keeps up a party of seven horse and about thirty matchlockmen. Ometta is 
 about twelve miles west from Baroda, on the Muhee River. 
 
 The Thakoor of Dehwan, near Borsud, is a person of the same stamp as 
 thatof Ometa, though perhaps a little inferior in importance. His revenue 
 is about 50,000 rupees, and he keeps up about ten horse and forty Sebundy. 
 
 The Thakoor of Kurraul, in the Kuppurwunj Pergunna, is a person 
 much the same as the above : he is subject to the Gaekwar authority, but 
 enjoys some land in the Company's district. 
 
 The Thakoor of Senalee, in the Mondah Pergunna, is of but little note. 
 
 The Thakoor of Soneepoor is a person who was of considerable note 
 in former days : he is now a peaceful and obedient subject. 
 
 GuNGADHUR SiiASTRY, PuTWURDHUN, who was assassinated in July, 1815, 
 at Punderpoor, while on a mission to the Poona Durbar, from Baroda, left 
 three sons who receive, between them, pensions of 10,000 rupees from the 
 British Government, and 60,000 rupees from the Government of Baroda. 
 Shumboo Shastry, brother of the deceased, has a pension of 1,200 rupees a 
 year from the British Government, and holds vari ms enam villages besides, 
 in the Konkan, Deccan, Surat Zilla, and BunJelcund. 
 
 CHIEFS IN KATTEEAWAR, 
 
 ( A Iphahetically arranged.) 
 
 The Chief of Amrun is a descendant of Meroo Kowaus, a minister to 
 the Jam of Noanugur, who threw olf his allegiance shortly after the accession 
 of the Jam, Suttajee, and possessed himself of the districts of Jooria, 
 Balumba, and Amrun. The latter place, was with twelve villages, confirmed 
 to the Kov/aus family when they evacuated the forts of Jooria and Balumba, 
 on Colonel East's force encamping before the former place. The present 
 chief, who is entirely given up to opium eating, pays 12,000 Kowries* towards 
 the Noanugur tribute. Amrun is a small fort of no strength, and its wall is, 
 in many places, in ruins; there is, however, one strong bastion, in which 
 some guns are mounted. There is a Mahomedan tomb, ot white marble, in 
 the place, which is worthy of remark. 
 
 The Chiefs of Bauntwa. This Talooka (which comprises eighty villages, 
 of whixjh thirty-six are now deserted) was given by Sulabut Khan, the second 
 Nuwab of Joonagurh, in 1740, to his younger sons DuUeel Khan, and Sher 
 Jumma Khan, to be held in equal divisions by them and their descendants.

CHIEFS IN KATTEEAWAR. 51 
 
 The principal holder at present is Kamal Deen, who has twenty-two villages. 
 The other twenty-two villages populated, are held by six proprietors, the 
 principal of whom are, Mahomed Khan, and Nuttoo Khan. Bauntwa yeilds 
 a revenue of about 1,00,000 rupees, and pays a tribute of 32,000 rupees 
 by Colonel Walker's settlement ; but the villages are in a wretched state, 
 and the six proprietors descended from Sher Jumma Khan, are in very 
 penurious circumstances. The Talooka is still subject to the gaddee ot Joo- 
 nagurh, and pays a share of the tribute, besides its own. 
 
 The Rawul, styied also Raja, also Thakoor, of Bhownugur, Vujjee 
 Sing. The revenues of this chief are estimated at 7,40,000 rupees. The 
 Bhownugur district itself, including the sea and land customs, is estimated 
 at 2,00,000 rupees and the Talooks of Gogeh, Burra Sehore, and Oii.ralla, 
 under the Ahmedabad collectorate, are rated at 1,00,000 rupees. The British 
 Government tribute is 75,400 rupees annually, and on account of the Joona- 
 gurh Zcortullubbee 23,400 rupees more. Vujjee Sing is probably the lichest 
 ciiief in the Peninsula, and the greater part of his country is in a flourishing 
 condition. He is about fifty years of age, and a man of piuch talent and 
 energy. He has several children. His elder son resides at the fort of Se- 
 hore. ' 
 
 The Chief of Bujana, Dhureea Khan, is a Jhut (a tribe of Mahomcdans, 
 supposed to be the earliest converts from Hindooism, and froiu whom the 
 Province of Jutwar derives its name.) Bujana is a very small Talooka, with 
 a revenue rated at 13,000 rupees, of which 5,000 is paid in tribute to the 
 British Government : the town itself however is populous, and situated on 
 the south bank of the Runn. 
 
 The Chiefs of Cheetul and Jaitpoor, are Kattees of the Khoomaun* 
 tribe. The principal of them are Vikumsee and Mooloo Wala. The tri!)ute 
 paid by Jaitpoor and Cheetul together, to the British Governmenr, is 54,264 
 rupees, and the Joonagurh ZoortuUabbee is estimated at 3,530 lupees more, 
 annually. The whole revenue is estimated at 1,. 50,000 rupees. The receipts of 
 the Nuwab are 960 Jam Shye Kowries from the customs ;umually, and a fixed 
 share, (being ftlis,) of the produce of what is termed tiie Julpud lands.f The 
 Kattee lands of both Cheetul and Jaitpoor are at present under attachment, 
 on account of the Khoomauu chiefs, for whom the Jaitpoor Kattees are 
 security. Jaitpoor is situated on the Bhadur river, has a good strong and high 
 wall, and contains about 12,000 inhabitants. It was in this place that the 
 refractory Kattee chiefs usually left their families when they went out upon 
 pilla*;ing excursions. 
 
 The Raja of Durangdra, Oomar Sing, is head of Jhalla Rajpoots. 
 Being entirely given up to devotion, his resources are left in bad hands, and 
 the estate, which comprized in 1809 about 200 villages, has now not more than 
 100 inhabited. The population is scarcely one third of what it was, from the 
 effects of the famine of 1813, and the incursions of Meyanuas and other free- 
 booters. Thetownof Durangdra, which is in good preservation, and the 
 walls newly built, is situated on a clear stream which falls into the Runn. 
 The revenue is rated at 1,67,900 rupees, and the tribute to the British Govern- 
 ment is 48,909 rupees ; but latterly, on account of the impoverished state of 
 the Talooka, 44,000 rupees only, have been taken, and I rather think, that last 
 year only 40,000 rupees were taken. Seepage 97 of Itinerary,

 was, it is said, conferred upon their ancestor by the Emperor, in the eighth 
 century of the Hejra. It is divided into two large Patties, or shares. The 
 chief proprietors are Mulluk, Adobye Lalmeah, and MuUuk Bawajee Mul- 
 lukbhoy. Colonel Walker, in 1809, settled the tribute of this Talooka at 
 14,001 rupees, but owing to the poverty of the chiefs, there are considerable 
 arrears, and the Talooka is now under attachment. Of late years there has 
 been scarcely half the produce, and Government, the year before last, made 
 a new settlement remitting 2,000 rupees of the tribute, and 12,001 rupees is 
 now settled for the five years from 1826. 
 
 The Chief of Goondul, Chunder Singh, has a large district in the 
 division of Hallar : his chief towns are Goondul and Dhorajee, both large 
 and thriving, and the disinct comprizes 179 villages. The chief himself 
 however pays little attention to the affairs of his Government. His revenne 
 may be rated at 2,63,225 rupees and his tribute to the British Government is 
 53,005 rupees. Dhorajee and Ooplaita are at present under farm to Kun- 
 choorjee Dewan, on account of the debts of the Goondul chief to Nanjee 
 Veerjee, and others. 
 
 The (JiiiEF OF H UL wiiD is subject to the Durangdra Raja, and pays tri- 
 bute with Durangdra. He has eight villages besides Hulwud. 
 
 The GovEkWoR of Jafferabad, Eyib Khan, bin Yakoob Khan, is a See- 
 dee, or Abyssinian. He was appointed, in succession to his father, about 
 1808, from Jinjcera, otherwise Dunda-Rajpoor of which Government, Jaf- 
 ferabad is an appendage. It is a walled town of considerable strength, 
 and has five villages subject to it ; the revenues of each however not exceed- 
 ing 500 rupees, and the whole of the revenues of this petty colony, including 
 land and Sea Customs, may not exceed 15,000 rupees. The present qimi 
 had boon the Governor for many years. Vide page 24^ for the Scedee of 
 Jinjeera. 
 
 The Nuwab of Joonagurh, Buhadar Khan, was placed on the Musnud 
 in 1811, at which time he was about sixteen years of age. From his habits 
 of extravagance, and the ill administration of those who have had the 
 management of his affairs, his country has been rapidly going to ruin, and for 
 the purpose of freeing his Highness from his embarrassments Government 
 have been necessitated to place the administration in the hands of a farmer, 
 Govindjed Jhalla, in 1823. The land revenues are farmed to this person for 
 ten lacks and a half of Kowries, (including his own salary 75,000,) out 
 of which the Nuwab receives 2,40,000 Kories for his maintenance,* and 
 the remainder is set apart for the payment of his Sebundy and creditors. 
 Besides this amount. His Highness has another source of revenue in the 
 Zoortullabbeef or collections from most of the chiefs in Katteeawar paid to 
 him ; this iS farmed at present to Nanjee Veerjee, a Merchant of Poorbunder, 
 at 2,23,000 Kowries. The Mooluck-geeryf collections, which were ceded to 
 the British Government in 1811, realized last year 82,384 rupees. The 
 Joonagurh dynasty originated with Sher Khan Babi,t who during the confu- 
 sion occasioned by the struggles between the Mahratta and iVIoghul for 
 superiority, in the province about 1730, established himself in the Government 
 
 * The Nuwab had lately an increase I believe, towards his maintenance of 10,000 Kowries 
 a month. 
 
 f The ZoortuUabbee and Mooluck-geerj, seem to be a similar species of revenue, being 
 a forced settlement upon every village in Katteeawar levied at the head of an army ; the 
 former was established by the Nuwab, the latter at an earlier period I suppose, by the Mah- 
 ratta's Similar to this is the revenue extorted under the head of Ghas Danu, vhich seems 
 to hiv^ commenced with the Feshwa's farm of the Gaekwar's Mahals in Gujerat. Gha?- 
 Danu, iiowever, seems to have been exacted for the benefit ^of Sirdbarsof the Mooluck-geery 
 army, while the Mooluck-geery exactions were for the benefit of the Prince.

 of Soreth, of which Joonagurh is the capital. The other chief towns are 
 }5untlee, Kesor,Choorwaur, Soodra-Para, Oona-Dilwara, Kootianna, Vaira- 
 wuI-Puttun, &c. Joonagurh is surrounded by a well built wall and rampart 
 thirty feet high, with a ditch at its base exavated out of the rock, and twenty 
 feet deep, — making the height from the bottom of the ditch fifty feet. Tht5 
 inhabitants are estimated at 30,000 souls. 
 
 The Chief of Limree, now a minor, is a Rajpoot. The revenues of the 
 Limree Talook are estimated at 1,57,075 rupees; this does not include either 
 what is derived from the Bhyad villages, or those under Ahmedabad. The 
 tribufe payable to the British Government is 51,931 rupees annually. The 
 town of Limree is situated on the banks of the Bogwara river, but fs now a 
 place of no strength, and the walls are fast going to decay : but it is extensive 
 and celebrated for the number of its monied inhabitants. The Talook is divided 
 asfoliows. Thirty-two Durbar villages: thirty-nine under the Bhyad (brothers 
 hood) i. e. under the management of, and for the support of, cadeis of the 
 family : thirty-four under the Ahmedabad collectorate, including Dundooka, 
 Bur wala and Wuddara : the latter pay tribute through the Collector. 
 
 The Thakoor of Mallia, Suttajee, a Jahrejah Rajpoot. Having lost 
 his facalties from the iniraoderate use of opium his a£fairs are managed by his 
 mother a woman of talent and ability. She exhibits one of the few instances 
 of a Rajpoot lady sitting in Durbar in the presence of Europeans. The 
 residence of the family is at Kokrajee a large village five coss from Mallia, 
 and three from the Runn. The revenue is estimated at ahout 70,000 Kories, 
 or 17,138 rupees, and the tribute to the Gaekwar Government is 1,200 
 rupees. Mallia has seven villages under it, and three Bhyad villages, the 
 latter pay a fixed sum towards the tribute. 
 
 The Nuwab of Mangrol, seems formerly to have been dependant upon 
 Joonagurh. The first who assumed the title of Nuwab w as a Kusbatty, but 
 his descendants have retained it. The principality remained independant 
 until the time of Omarjee the Dewan of Joonagurh, who compelled the Kus- 
 batty to cede the villages of Seal, Buggusra, Meyaree and Dewassa, to his 
 master; fixed the Mangrol share of the tribute at 11,000 rupees yearly, 
 which the Joonagurh officers collect : and further to cede the half produce 
 of the remaining forty villages in this Talo^'ca. The Nuwab of Joonagurh 
 has authority to decide in all cases of disputed succession, but no authority 
 in the town of Mangrol itself, nor any share of the customs. The Mangrol 
 produce is estimated at about 1,25,000 Kories, not including either the 
 customs or the town revenues, which amount to about a lack more of Kories. 
 The town of Mangrol is very populous, and the port much frequented by 
 small craft. 
 
 The Thakoor of Morewee. Jehajee, a Jahrejah Rajpoot, is the princi- 
 pal chief of Muchoo Kaunta. His estate comprizes ninety-seven villages. 
 His revenue is rated at 1,68,641 rupees, and his tribute to the British Govern- 
 ment is 40,001 rupees. His chief towns are Morewee and Tankaria : the latter 
 is at present in the hands of Meiral Bhow a Baroda shroff for debt : it has 
 nine villages under it not included in the Morewee Talook: the estimate of 
 the Tankaria revenues may be about 20,000 rupees annually. Jahreja Jehajee 
 has also several villages in Kutch under him. The Morewee villages are now 
 rather in improving circumstances. 
 
 The legend says that the ancestor of the present Chief of Morewee, by 
 name Rewajee, who was the eldest sen of Raidhunjee, Rao of Kutch, and 
 should have succeeded to the Gaddee of that country, was murdered about 
 1685, by his younger brother, Pragjee; and his oft'spring were obliged to fly to 
 Morewee, then a possession in Katteeawar, belonging to the Kutch State, 
 which, at a subsequent period; confirmed the Talook to an ancestor of the 
 present Chief of Morewee's. 
 
64 CHIEFS IN KATTEEAWAR. 
 
 The Jam of Noanugur, RunmuJjee, is the head of the Jahrejah Raj- 
 poots. He was adopted by the widow of Jam Suttajee, the last chief, wlio 
 died about 1814. The widow continued in the administrnjion of affairs 
 during his minority aided by Jug-Jeewan, a Nagur Bramin, of >ome talent, 
 as her minister. His Government extends over the greater part of iUv 
 province of Hallar, and his revenue is rated at .5,60,000 rupees wheicoi 
 95,000 rupees is paid in tribute to the Gaekwar Government. Noanugur, the 
 chief town, is the most populous in Katteeawar, is nearly four iriies in iir~ 
 cumference, and is principally celebrated for the beauty and texture of its 
 cloth manufactures. The other principal touns in the Jani^n dominions, are 
 Jooria, Kumbalia, and Sutchana, which are the chief sen ports in Katteeawar 
 in the Gulph of Kutcb, and Balumba a well built town, containing about 
 1,000 houses, surrounded by a double wall and ditch. The Noanugur country, 
 is at present farmed, on account of \he debts of the Jam to the Jate Soonderjee 
 Sewajee,* for 17,25,000 ICowries annually ; outof whi(h the Jam recdves 
 three lacks for his maintenance, and the rest goes to pay his tribute "and 
 creditors. There are upwards of three hundred villages in this talooka in- 
 cluded in Soonderjee's Farm, which is now held by his sim Soonderjee De.vjee. 
 
 The Raja of Paulitana is a relation of the Raja of Bhownugur; he is 
 however much in debt, and his counirj' is a^ present mortgaged to a Banyan. 
 Paulitana is a principal place of pilgrimage iu Gujerat. The principal 
 place of worship is on the summit of the Shaitrojee hill the bottom of which 
 is about a mile from the town. The top is covered with temples of various 
 kinds, but the finest is that dedicated to Parisnath, which is elegantly car- 
 ved, the image is of black marble and is always adorned with a great 
 variety of rich clothes and jewels. Most of the other; temples are well 
 carved and the gods are of white marble. 
 
 The Dessaye of Patree. His estate lies on the northern extremity of 
 Katteeawar. The town was formerly reckoned a place of considerable 
 strength, but is now much in decay. It is surrounded by three separate walls, 
 at the inner of which is a ditch. The revenue is rated at 18,000 rupees, and 
 the fixed tribute to the British Government is 5,652 rupees. 
 
 The Rana of Poorbunder, Halajee, styled Pritheraj, is a Rajpoot of the 
 Jaitwar tribe: he is head of a petty maritime State called Burruda, or Jaitwar, 
 which is under the immediate protection of the British Government. The estate 
 comprises about 100 villages, including the forts, of Chya, Ranawau and Kun- 
 doorna, and the seaports of Nuvee-Bunder, Mcannee, and Poorbunder. Half 
 the port duties of the latter place, rated at 37,500 rupees, were ceded, in 1808, 
 to the British Government to defray the expense of 100 sepoys and an officer, to 
 be stationed at Poorbunder. These port duties realized 3 1 .230 rupees last year. 
 A tribute of 30,000 rupees is also paid to the Gaekwar. The Rana is a man of 
 little capacity : being joined by a number of profligate associates, he raised a 
 rebellion against his father, about 1810, and established himself in the adjacent 
 fort of Chya, where he was besieged in the following year, by Colonel East's 
 force, which, after sustaining some loss, succeeded in taking him prisoner, 
 when he was delivered over to his father. His country is in a very impover- 
 ished condition: when it was farmed to Soonderjee Sewajee the revenues 
 were estimated at upwards of six lacks of Kovvries. 
 
 The Thakoor of Rajkot, Soorajee, is a minor ; he has a revenue rated 
 at 34,500 rupees, — his tribute to the British Government was fixed at 20,500 
 
 *Tbe late Soonderjee Sewajee was a merchant in Katteeawar, deserving notice for the 
 patriotic manner in which he has applied his great wealth : 1st, To the improvemei t of the 
 country — 2d, In extensive charity, particularly duiing the farniKe in 1812-13, when he ex- 
 pended two or three lacks of rupees ; and 3d, In works tnat will perpetuate his name for son:e

 rupees, but I rather think that only 17,000 rupees is now taken. The Talooka is 
 at present farmed to Runchorjee Dewan, the ex-minister of the Nuwab of 
 Joonagurh. The principal town is Sirdhar, which was formerly the residence 
 of the chief. 
 
 The Thakoor of Saeela, Alluda Sing. The revenues of his district may 
 be estimated at 35,000 rupees of which 12,000 is paid in tribute to the 
 British Government. In 1809 the Talooka comprised thirty-eight villages 
 but of these seventeen were depopulated by the famine in 1813. The revenue 
 at the first period was estimated at 50,000 rupees, and Colonel Walker 
 settled the tribute at 18,782 rupees. Saeela is a large walled town situated 
 in a open country, and upon a large Tank. Serraw a well built walled town 
 west of it, is the next principal place under this Talook. 
 
 The Thakoor of Wavkaneer, Dosajee, has a small district comprising 
 villages in Mutchoo Kaunta. He is an old man, and looks olderffrom 
 the effects of eating opium, a practice common to the chiefs in Katteeawar. 
 His revenue in 1809 was assumed at 40,000 rupees, and his tribute fixed at 
 18,000 rupees. The former is now reckoned 26,000 rupees and the tribute 
 taken is 12.000 rupees. Seepage 99 of the Itinerary, 
 
 The Raja of Wudwaun, is a minor, and the Government is conducted by 
 the mother of the late Raja, Jhallum Sing, who died last year. The Bhyad 
 villages of this Talooka settle separately for their tribute. There are twenty- 
 eight Durbar villages in this Talooka, all in a high state of cultivation, the 
 finest cotton in Katteeawar is grown in it. The tribute settled by Colonel 
 Walker for Wudwaun was 27,831 rupees the revenue may be estimated at 
 J,00,000 rupees. 
 
 GOVERNMENT of KUTCH. 
 
 The Rao of Kutch, is of Rajpoot origin, and is styled the Maha-Raja, 
 Mirza Rao Shri Dessuljee. He was unanimously elected in October, 1819, 
 by the Jarejah chiefs to succeed to the throne of Kutch, in succession to his 
 father Bharmuljee, who was deposed on account of his tyranny and oppression 
 to the Jarejah Bhyad, (brotherhood of chiefs.) During the Rao's minority, the 
 affairs of the Government are transacted by a Regency of six persons, viz. 
 the Jarejah Chiefs, Nonguljee of Kotree, Banjee of Motarah, Chandabycof 
 Nangurcha the Minister Mehtah Luckmadass Wallubjee, (one vacant) and 
 the British Resident for the time being. 
 
 The Government of Kutch subsidizes a Battalion of Native Infantry with 
 Artillery, for which it pays to the Honorable Company ssven lacks of Kow- 
 ries annually, besides eighty-eight thousand rupees for the rent of Anjar and 
 its Pergunna, which was in the year 1822, re-transferred to the Rao. The 
 military force of the Durbar is very limited, consisting of about three hun- 
 dred horse, and two thousand Sebundy, which are employed principally in 
 the collection of the revenue, and police of the country. A few Arabs are 
 maintained for the defence of the forts of Luckput arid Mandavee. 
 
 This country had long been the scene of disorder and misrule, and its Gov- 
 ernment being too weak to prevent the constant irruption of Banditti and 
 Freebooters into the Company's Territories, led first to the treaty of Anjar, in 
 1815, and subsequently to the Subsidiary Treaty of Bhooj, in 1819, which 
 guaranteed the security of his dominions to the Rao, and arranged for the 
 permanent residence of British troops at his capital. Since that period the 
 country has been subjected to many misfortunes ; in 1819 a dreadful earth- 
 quake took place, which destroyed the forts and principal buildings in Kutch 
 and occasioned the loss of many hundreds of lives. In 1823, and the vear 
 
5G GOVERNMENT OF KUTCH. 
 
 following, the periodical rains failed, wliich occasioned much distress, and 
 the emigralion of a large portion of its population. In 1825, the country 
 was overrun by plunderers from Sinde which ai led to the distress of former 
 years. Since that period Kutch has been better protected, order has been 
 restored, and its population has chiefly iet-»rnod. 
 
 The revenue of the territories belor^Jng to the Rao of Kutch, may be cal- 
 culated at between twenty-eight and thirty lacks of Kowries, and its expendi- 
 ture exclusive of the Subsidy, at between twelve and fourteen lacks. The 
 remaining portion of the country has been granted away in Jagheers to the 
 Bhyad. or to religious establishments. ^ 
 
 The soil of Kutch is principally of a sandy description, but it contains 
 extensive tracts of country, such as the plain of Abrassia, and some districts in 
 Wagur, of an extreraeh' rich, and productive nature, and particularly favor- 
 able to the growth of cotton, which may be considered the staple of the pro- 
 vince. It possesses likewise, on its northern boundary, extensive grass lands, 
 which are resorted to by numerous tribes of wandering Rehbaries, .Jhuts, &c. 
 
 The Jarejah Bhyad of the Abrassia and Wagur acknowledge theHao as 
 their chief, and on a summons from the Durbar are obliged to attend at the 
 camp of the Rao with their retainers, both horse and foot, but during their 
 attendance subsistence is demanded From the chiefs in Wagur only, a 
 Jummabundy or tribute is levied of forty Kowries on each plough of their 
 Ryots, but this arrangement has been subsequently commuted into a fixed 
 tribute, according to a calculation of the number of ploughs in each village 
 in 1819 : the settlement is shewn in the following table. The deposed Rao 
 endeavoured to establish a similar tribute from the rest of his chiefs in other 
 parts of the country, but failed. The following statement shewing the reve- 
 nues of the Kutch State does not include the villages assigned for the main- 
 tenance of the ladies of the Durbar, over which they have the sole sovereignty 
 and management. All disputes amongst the Bhyad are referred to the Durbar 
 at Bhooj for adjustment.

 The petty STATE of SIROWI. 
 
 The Rao of Sirowi, is a Rajpoot claiming descent from Mehnse, a 
 Chowhan Prince, who reigned at Jahlore. To Sessmull, one of his descen- 
 dants, is ascribed the founding of the city of Sirowi, in A. D. 1424, then 
 named Sheopooree. The revenue which comes into the Rao's treasury does 
 not exceed seventy thousand rupees, but the Marwar Government have ad- 
 vanced claims to a share of it in tribute. The Rao keeps up at present 
 between 300 and 400 Sebundies, but the whole population, which is composed 
 of the predatory tribes, chiefly, Meenah, Grassias, and Bheels, are always 
 armed. The mountain of Arbud, or Aboo, celebrated for its splendid Jain 
 temples, is within this territory ; and the superb ruins of the ancient city of 
 Chandrawattee, are to be seen near to the village of Mawul, close to the 
 south eastern shoulder of Aboo. See Itinerary page 116. 
 
 PRINCIPAL OFFICERS, 
 
 At the Court of Gwalior. 
 
 SiNDHiA, styled Maha-Raja, and Ali-jah. Ranoojee, the founder of this 
 family, sprang from a menial rank in life, but left at his death, which occurred 
 about 1750, to his successor a government, extending over the greater part 
 of Malwa, with a revenue estimated at 65 lacks of rupees. He had five 
 sons, of whom three were killed inaction, during his lifetime. Jyapa, his 
 second son, succeeded him, and was present at the capture of Ahmedabad, 
 about 1755. In 1759, he was assassinated by an emissary of the Raja of 
 Joudpoor, whom he was besieging in Nagore. Of the sons of Jyapa, one was 
 killed in action ; Junkoojee, the other and most distinguished as a soldier, 
 was, in 1761, taken prisoner at Paniput, and afterwards put to death by the 
 conqueror. Mahadjee, the fourth son of Ranoojee, being now the only 
 survivor, though illegitimate, (the other having been killed in action,) and 
 having established claims by his own services, was confirmed in the Jagheer : 
 Mahadjee died at Poona in 17^4, and was succeeded by his grand-nephew, 
 axid adopted son, Dowlut Rao ; who, like his^ predecessor, extended the M^h-

 ratta conquests in Malwa, and Rajpootana, and died 21st March, 1827 ; 
 leaving territories to his successor, capable of realizing, under ^ proper 
 management, an annual revenue of nearly 140 lacks of rupees. The late 
 Maha-Raja having no male heirs, and there being but little prospect of any, 
 he shortly before his death, sent to the Deccan for the children of some of 
 his distant relations, that he might select an heir from amongst them. The 
 candidates, five in number, arrived at Gwalior after his death, and the right 
 of selection fell upon Bueza Baee, the acknowledged Regent, who chose Moo- 
 gut Rov*^, a boy twelve years of age, the second of the candidates in respeit to 
 years. The ceremony of adoption took place on the 17th June, 1»27, and of 
 marriage, on the same day, to the grand-daughter of the late Maha-Raja, by 
 his daughter married to Rao Suenaputee. He was seated on the Gaduee on 
 the following day, under the auspices of the British Government ; assuming 
 the name of Junkoojee, in compliment to his distinguished ancestor of this 
 name. 
 
 The army of the State at the period of the death of the late Maha-Raja, 
 was at the lowest computation, exclusive of the British .contingent, and 
 garrisons to forts, estimated at 14,000 infantry, 10,000 cavalry, and 250 pieces 
 of cannon. 
 
 The Regent. Bueza Baee, styled the Baec Sahibah, the younger,* but 
 favorite, wife of the late Maha-Raja, assumed the reins of Government on 
 his demise, agreeably to the understood intentions of her late husband, who 
 died intestate ; and she has been recognized by the British Government, as 
 Regent during the minority of her adopted son, Junkoojee Rao, who is now 
 twelve years of age. The chief persons in the administration are : first, her 
 brother Hindoo Rao Baba Ghatgay, who is at the head of the Military De- 
 partment ; and, 2dly, Bapoo Rugonath, who is Mookhtiar, or Prime Minis- 
 ter, and at the head of the Financial Department : the latter is the cele- 
 brated minister of the Dhar State, during the period of anarchy in Malwa, 
 and of whom so full an account is given in Sir John Malcolm's memoir on 
 that province. But, Atmaram Pundit, Raojee Khasgeewala, Appa Chitna- 
 wees, a dependent of Hindoo Rao's, and Dajeeba Potnuwees, seom the 
 principal male persons who have access to the presence of Her Highness. 
 
 JuE Singh Rao Ghatgay, styled Hindoo Rao, is the son of Sukaram 
 Ghatgay, sti/led Surjee Rao, and brother to Bueza Baee, the favorite wife of 
 the late Dowlut Rao Sindhia ; since whose death he has, naturally, attained 
 greater influence at the Court of Gwalior. The uncle of Hindoo Rao, 
 styled Wiswas Rao, was, together with his father, originally in the service 
 of the Raja of Kolapoor, whose daughter was married to the former. The 
 town and district of Kagul, an ancient possession of this family of Ghatgay, 
 and supposed to be a royal grant, was confirmed in Jagheerto Wiswas Rao, as 
 his wife's dower. After his death, it was conferred upon Surjee Rao, as an 
 enam, in reward for important services, rendered by him to the Raja of Kola- 
 poor. Surjee Rao's daughter, who was celebrated for beauty, having been 
 espoused by Sindhia, he became minister at Gwalior, in 1796. After a 
 series of the most unexampled atrocities, perpetrated during the period that 
 his influence predominated in Sindhia's camp, he was killed in an affray, in 
 which an attempt was made to seize him by Sindhia's orders, in IblO. His 
 son, the present Hindoo Rao, did not go to Gwalior till 1815-16. His Ja- 
 gheer, in Sindhia's country, is estimated at 1 ,50,000 rupees, and he has an 
 allowance from the treasury besides. 
 
 Dhabarry Yeswunt Rao, styled Suenaputee. His ancestor, Khundee 
 Rao Dhabarry, held this office under the Raja Sahoo, and was the fourth

 person, who held it under the house of Satara. His career was short, but 
 brilliant : he died about 1720, and was succeeded by his son, Trimbuk Rao. 
 By the success of his lieutenants, Kantajee Kuddum Bandy* and Peelajee 
 Gaekwar,t he obtained the chouth ot Gujerat, in 1724: Trimbuk Rao 
 arrived the following year from the Deccan, and assumed charge of the army, 
 but was killed in an affray among his own troops, while besieging Cambay. 
 His mother succeeded to the management of the family interests; and her 
 lieutenants, in various actions, defeated the imperial officers, as well as 
 the agent of the Peshwa, who was jealous of the power she had acquir- 
 ed, and was desirous of having the chouth of Gujerat established in his own 
 name, instead of the Suenaputee's. Ooman Baee died about 1748, and was 
 succeeded by Ambaka Baee, the wife of another son, named Baboo Rao 
 Dhabarry ; and from about this time the office of Suenaputee became a 
 sinecure, and w ithout influence. He holds Jagheers in Sindhia's country, 
 rated at 70,000 rupees ; in the Dec-can his personal Jagheer is rated at 
 22,850 rupees ; and his enam villages, of Tuligaom, and Endooree near it, 
 together, are rated at 8,300 rupees. His son, Manyaba, styled Baboo Rao, 
 has a pension of 2,500 rupees per month, from Sindhia's treasury : he was 
 married to Chirana Baee, the eldest daughter of the late Dowlut Rao Sind- 
 liia ; but she died in 1820, leaving three daughters : the eldest is married ta 
 the Powar of Dhar,]: the youngest to the Maharaja, Junkoojee Rao Sindhia, 
 Bahadur, now at the head of the Government ; and the second is still 
 unmarried. The present chief was the nephew, and adopted son, of his 
 predecessor in the chiefship. The office, or rather the title, of iSuenaputee,]! 
 was bestowed, last year, by H. H. the Raja, upon his own cousin-german, 
 which gave rise lately to a remonstance from Yeswunt Rao. 
 
 Bala Baee, (literally High Lady) is the second daughter of the late 
 Mahadjee Sindhia. She was married to Ladoojee Seetolay, commonly 
 called, Ladoojee Deshmookh, who was appointed Soobehdar of Delhi ; but, 
 having deserted that city, in fear of Ghooiam Kaudir, of notorious memory, 
 he only escaped a capital punishment, by the intercession of his wife ; and 
 afterwards died at Poona. She holds Jagheers, rated at 3,00,000 rupees, 
 including territories, rated at about 50,000 rupees, intermixed with the British 
 possessions in the Deccan, viz. : Fooltamba, Undersool, Sonaee, Mamda- 
 poor, Rajooree, Maloonjee, and Largaom, in the Ahmednugur districts ; 
 and 16, or 20, villages in Khandes. 
 
 Lala Sahib is the son of the late Gopal Rao Bhow, and has charge of 
 part of his father's Jagheers, rated at 1,00,000 rupees, in Sindhia's country ; 
 which have been assigned for the support of the present generation of 
 descendants of Gopal Rao Bhow. He is about twenty-five years of age, 
 and possesses the freehold villages of Waukry in the Satara districts, and 
 Belapoor in the Ahmednugur Collectorship.

 in-Chief, and brother to Narraen Rao Bukshee,§ who was in 1800 barbarous- 
 ly put to death, by Surjee Rao Ghatgay, by the order of Sindhia, for his 
 adherence to the interest of the Baees, or widowed Princesses, of Mahadjee 
 Sindhia. Yeswunt Rao was one of the principal leaders, among Sindhia's 
 chiefs ; but having, in several instances, protected the Pindarees, in 1817-18, 
 he was attacked by the Bengal Division under Major General Browne, when 
 his army was dispersed and broken up, and he w^s afterwards deprived of his

 the late Ghatgay Surjee Rao, in persecuting the persons, attached to the 
 interests of Mahadjee Sindhia's widows, as well as in his various severities ; 
 and is now attached to the party of Hindoo Rao. He served a considerable 
 time in Hindoostan, with Gopal Rao Bhow, and was a favorite companion

62 PRINCIPAL OFFICERS AT THE COURT OF GWALIOR. 
 
 Dajeeba Potnuwees (principal revenue accountant,) is uncle to Amrut Rao, 
 to whom the situation of Potnuwees belongs in succession to his father Krish* 
 najee Mahadjee Sindhia : but Dajeeba is styled Potnuwees, as he does the

 MuLHAR Row HoLKAR, the first member of this powerful family, was the 
 son of a shepherd and weaver of camlies in the village of Hole Pergunna, of 
 Phultun, from whence he derives his name. At an early age he enlisted as a 
 horseman in the troops under Amrut Row Kuddum Bhandy and subsequently 
 having raised a small troop of his own, gained distinction under the banners 
 of the Kuddums, which his descendants continue to use, now they have 
 attained to the eminence of Princes. Sir John Malcolm, in his history of 
 Malwa, has supplied all the information required of the exploits of the first 
 Mulhar Row, the administration of his extraordinary daughter-in-law Ehlya 
 Bye, of the character of Tookojee, and of the feats of Yeswunt Row, his 
 illegitimate and youngest son, whose illegitimate offspring, the sole but dis- 
 jointed descendent of the house, now sits on the Musnud at Indoor, and rules 
 over the half of Malwa, yielding a revenue of 25 lacks of rupees.

 tricts of Zeerapoor and Machiipoor. The present possession of the family 
 comprises only 20 villages. It is a dependency of the Holkar State, to which 
 it pays a yearly tribute of 1,500 rupees. 
 
 The Chiefs of Oomutavarra. This province takes its name from two 
 Chiefs of the Oomut class of Rajpoots. They established their dominion over 
 great part of Malwa during the decline of the Moghul empire, but were con- 
 fined to their present limits by the Mahrattas. Newul Singh, styled Rawut 
 or chief, resides at Rajghur, and Hunmunt Singh, styled Dewan or Minister, 
 at Nursing-ghur. They are of the same family, and deduce their genealogies 
 from brothers, between whom the territory was equally divided, not into dis- 
 tinct tracts of country, but by each taking the alternate village. The country 
 contains about 800 villages, and at present produces from four to five lacks of 
 rupees. The Rawut is tributary to Sindhia, and the Dewan to Holkar. The 
 amount of tribute from each is 85,000 rupees, that of the Rawut hov/ever 
 has been commuted, in 1819, for territory ceded. The Rawut besides pays 
 1,050 rupees to the Raja of Kola. They continue to receive a Tanka (rent or 
 fee) from some of the districts formerly in their possession. 
 
 The Nuwab of Koorwyee, Ukhber Khan, is the third in descent from 
 Nuwab Duleel Khan, the founder of the principality. The district contains 
 now only 92 villages, yielding a revenue of from twenty to twenty-five thou- 
 sand rupees. The family are Afghans, and established themselves in this 
 part of Malwa during, or shortly after, the reign of Aurungzeeb. Koorwyee 
 lies east from Seronj. 
 
 The Nuwab of Mahomudghur-Basowda, Assud Ali Khan, has a small 
 territory of 17 villages, yielding live or six thousand rupees. He is a branch 
 of the Koorwyee family. Basowda lies to the east of Bhilsa. 
 
 The Nuwab of Mahomudghur, Ahmud Koolce Khan. This possession 
 contains 22 villages, producing six or seven thousand rupees of annual reve- 
 nue. The chief is of the same stock as the Koorwyee chief, and nearly re- 
 lated to Ussud Ali Khan, of Basowda. Mahomudghur adjoins Basowda. 
 
 The Raja of Mukraee, Devi Sah. This chief is a Gond, whose ances- 
 tors, in former days, are said to have held the Punj-Muhals of Hurda and 
 Hindia, till they were taken possession of, first by the Moghul, and latterly 
 by the Mahratta. A tract containing 45 villages, is all that is now left to 
 the family. This State was a dependency of the late Peshwa, and, conse- 
 quently is now one of the British Government. 
 
 The Chief of Muxoodenghur, Bhyree Saul, stuled Raja Bahadoor, 
 Muxoodenghur is all that remains of the conquests made by the late Doorjun 
 Saul, whom the present chief succeeded. He is descended from an elder 
 branch of the family of the present Raja of Ragooghur. He belongs to the 
 Khychee class of Rajpoots, from whom the tract called Khycheewara takes 
 its name. The district under Muxoodenghur contains about 60 villages, but 
 produces a revenue of only five or six thousand rupees. The districts having 
 been nearly destroyed, during the protracted contests between the Khychees", 
 and Sindhia's Government. The chief now considers himself under British 
 protection. 
 
 TkiE Thakoor of Agra-Burkaira, Chuttur Saul. His estate consists 
 of 12 villages : the cbief is also hereditary Zumeendar of Gunj -Basowda^.

 and receives a percentage on the revenue, besides holding several half vil*- 
 lages. Chiittur Saul is a Powav Rajpoot, son of Nirbhee Singh, who, during 
 the period of anarchy, headed four or five hundred horse, and subsisted them 
 by plunder. 
 
 The Raja of Sheopoor. The legend of this family traces its descent 
 from one of six brothers, from Adjeegurh, who lived about the year of the 
 Hejra 590. Two of these fell in battle, three became Rajas, of Ajimeer, Harow- 
 tee, and Nagore, respectively, and the fourth surviving brother, a Jagheerdar 
 of twenty villages. The descendant of the Raja of Ajimeer, Jogaee Raja, 
 became involved with the Emperor Jehangeer, and died a fugitive in the wilds 
 of Lukhairee. His son, Gopal Rao, became, for a time, a leader of freeboo- 
 ters, but having afterwards, in the service of Shah Jehan, taken Asseergurh, 
 he was appointed to the command of it. Gopal Rao, together with his son, 
 fell in battle near Tutha (Sinde) and his brother, Wittul Dass, who had re- 
 mained as his deputy at Asseer, had districts in Malwa, including fifty forti- 
 fied places, conferred upon him. Wittul Dass divided this territory between 
 liis two sons, Inder Singh, and Arzoon Singh. The first had Shahabad &c. 
 and the second Sheopoor, &c. and hence the origin of this family. The le- 
 j^end enumerates a long line of heroes, but it may be sufficient to say that they 
 are of the Gour tribe of Rajpoots, and that the present Raja holds a.Jagheer 
 irom Sindhia's Government, valued at 40,000 rupees, being a part of his former 
 territory, and resides at Gwalior, within the Residency limits. Sheopoor is 
 situated S. W. from Gwalior, 120 or 130 miles j e^nd was the head quarters 
 of Jean Baptiste, in the days of his prosperity. 
 
 CtilEFS IN JHANSI AND BUNDELCUN0. 
 
 The Soobehdar of Jhansi, Rao Ramchundur Hurry. Hurry Daniodhur 
 the great grandfather of the present Soobehdar, and his brother Sudasew 
 Damodhur, had each command of a small party of horse in the service of the 
 Nizam. They afterwards entered the service of the Peshwa Bajee Rao i3ul- 
 lal, who conferred upon them, in enam, Parola, and other villages in Khandes, 
 rated at 7,238 rupees, which the family still hold. On Raja Bahadur* being 
 recalled, by tlie Peshwa, from Jhansi, Hurry Damodhur was sent to succeed 
 him as Soobehdar. His son Shew Rao Hurry, styled Bhow, rendered himself 
 in some measure independent, by ceasing to send his accounts, or any portion 
 of the collections, to Poona, after the decease of the Peshwa, Sewai Madhoo 
 Rao, in 1797. Shew Rao entered into a treaty in 1804 with the British Gov- 
 ernment, when he acknowledged himself one of the Peshwa's feudatories. 
 He had three sons, but the eldest, who was father to the present Soobehdar, 
 died during his father's lifetime. When Jhansi was first ceded to the Mah- 
 rattas by the Raja Chuttur Saul, the revenues, rated at 24,00,000 rupees, 
 were allotted as follows : —

 and in deference to his wish expressed before his death, it was confirmed in 
 perpetuity to his grand-son, Rm Ramchunder Hurry. The military estab- 
 lishment I do not know, but the chief of J ansi is bound to employ his troops, 
 whenever required to do so, in subordinate co-operation with those of the 
 British Government. 
 
 The Chief of Saugor, Kalpee, and Jaloun, Nana Govind Rao. With the 
 first acquisition of territory in Bundelcund (properly Boondelkhund,) by the 
 Mahrattas, a story, perhaps an idle one, is connected. It is said that Chut- 
 tur Saul (who I suppose to have been a descendant of a powerful Zumeendar 
 in the province of either Gurah or Mundela, of the name of Lodi,) served 
 as a bargeer in the army of the Raja Sahoo, and having had a sword 
 conferred on him by his Prince, in acknowledgement of some distinguished 
 service, he declared that with it he would acquire dominion. He after- 
 wards went into Boondelkhund, of the whole of which he gradually pos- 
 sessed himself, A quarrel with the neighbouring powerful Prince of 
 Furrukabad, obliged him to call in the aid of the Mahrattas, which being 
 timely afforded, turned the sca!e of victory. ChatturSaul, in gratitude, adop- 
 ted the Peshwa, Bajee Rao BuUal, as a son, and conferred upon him, at his 
 death, in 1733, an equal share of his possessions with his other two sons. Be- 
 sides Jhansi, the Peshwa's share of Boondelkhuiid rated at 20,00,000 rupees 
 r£alized, in 1779, 16,40,935 rupee?, "^ at which time Baloojee Govind Rao, son of 
 Govind Bullal, the first Soobehdar, was in charge. Govind Bullal, the first 
 Soobehdar of Saugor, was killed in action, when transporting the revenue of 
 his Government to the army at Paniput, in 1760, He had two sons, Baiajee 
 Govind Rao and Gungather Punt. The Peshwa confirmed the first in pos- 
 session of Saugor and other districts ; and the latter, v. ho was grand-father 
 to Nana Govind Rao, was put in possession of Jaloun, which has been con- 
 firmed to him in perpetuity by the British Gcvernment, having fallen under 
 our direct authority by the Treaty with the Peshwa, in June, 1817. The 
 district of Saugor is now under the administration of the British Governmen', 
 and from the revenues, assumed at 6,98,000 rupees, a sum of 2^ lacks is assigned 
 as a provision for the maintenance of Seeta Baee, the widow of the son of Ba- 
 loojee Govind Rao, the last Raja, and also to maintain Venaik Rao, the former 
 manager : and whenever the assumed estimate is realized, a stipend of 
 1,18,360 rupees is payable to Nana Govind Rao of Jaloun. ^

 ed at Ayodya (Oude,) and was succeeded by Ids second son, Ankoosli. fioif. 
 whom Gungrukh, who founded Gayah in Bchar, and erected some splen- 
 did buildings therein, is the sixteenth in lineal descent. The twentieth Raja, 
 Buldeo Rukh, founded the place called Pruyag: in Allahabad, and his son, 
 Indradumun, built the celebrated temples of Juggernath. It is from Rant 
 Singh, the second son of the 32d Raja, that the Burgoozur Rajpoots derive 
 their origin. The 34th Raja, Kurmshya, conquered the province of Benares. 
 Kemkurn, the second son of the 46th Raja, having, together with a person 
 named Mulsa, performed some religious austerities on the summit of Hinda- 
 Chul, succeeded in propitiatuig Bedraosheney, the tutelary Devce of the 
 mountain, with her permission, proceeded against, and overcame, Khan 
 Jehan Khan Lodi, Raja of Jukumpoor, where they reigned 69 years. The 
 60th Raja, Prutab-Roodra, built the fort of Ourchar, for his son Bharteechund, 
 who succeeded him. Mudkur^ the 62d Raja, reigned in the time of Akber. 
 His eldest son, Ramasa, succeeded to the throne of Ayodya, while the younger 
 son, Nursingh Deo, was confirmed by Jehangeer in Ourchar, and the district 
 of Chunderee was given to Ramasa, as an equivalent. Nursingh Deo "had 
 twelve sons, the third son, Pahar Singh, accompanied the Emperor Aurung- 
 zeeb to Aurangabad, and founded a Poora, or Suburb, which now bears his 
 name. With Bhugwandass, the fourth son, originated the tribe of Koorers. 
 The 69th Raja, was Owdhoot Singh, adopted from the family of the Raja of 
 Hurdwar, and the present Raja, who succeeded his father about 1817, is No. 
 72. The Raja of Ourchar is considered as the head of the Boondely tribes, 
 and all the other Rajas receive their investiture from him. His chief town is 
 about eight miles from Jhansi, and his revenue, at present, does not exceed a. 
 lack of rupees. 
 
 I should have been ff lad could I have given a fuller account of the Chiefs in 
 JBundelcund, or those holding posessions on its frontier. The Boondely chiefs 
 are perhaps the most ancient in India^ and a careful comparison of their legends, 
 with those of other tribes and nations, who have had intercourse with them, 
 should furnish something of value to the historian ; the Soobehdar of Jhansi, 
 and Chiefs of Saugor, and Kalpee, are but of modern date. The principal chiefs 
 of the ancient family, who have been received under British protection, are^ the 
 Itaja of Sumpter, who, by his engagement, furnishes a contingent of horse ivhen 
 required. The Itaja of Dutteeah, with whom similar engagements exist, viz. 
 Protection on the one side, dependence^ fidelity, and co operation on the other., 
 The Raja of Gurah-Kota, has been rcsiored to part of his possessions, but 
 mrtuaUy reduced to the rank of a Zumeendar. The Rajas of JRewah, of Tehree, 
 and many others, names arid style unknown to me, are in like manner guaranteed 
 in their possessions by the British Government.

 STATE. 
 
 The Raja of I^agvoov., styled, Scna-Sahib-Soobah. Rughoojee, a minor, son 
 of Nana Goojur, by a daughter of the late Rughoojee Bhonslay,was placed on 
 the Gaddce under the auspices of the British Government, in 1818. Her High- 
 ness Buka Baee, widow of the late Rughoojee, was at the same time appoint- 
 ed Regent. This branch of the Bhonslays affirm, that they owe their origin 
 to the Patels of Hingun-Berdee,* near Poona, and Dewoor, near Satara. 
 The story, of their emerging from obscurity, is as follows : Pursojee Bhons- 
 lay, Soobehdar of Berar, about the beginning of the nineteenth century, had 
 a nephew, Rughoojee, who served under him with four horse, but of whose 
 remarkable talents he became jealous ; Rughoojee in consequence deserted ; 
 plundered some villages on his route ; and, collecting a party of about 100

 horse, entered the service of the Raja, Cliand Sooltan, the brother of Biikht 
 Boolund, Raja of Deognrh, and then ruler in Gondwana : these Kajas, had 
 heen converted to Mahomed anism. About this time a Sahookar, by name Put- 
 wurdhun, onhis way from Benares to the Deccan, had heavy transit duties levi • 
 ed upon his merchandize, by the Gond Raja, and Pursojee declined his inter- 
 ference to get it remitted. It happened that Pursojee's tribute, 3,00,000 rupees 
 annually, had not been sent to Poona for sixteen years, and the Peshwa was 
 preparing to enforce it, when Putwurdhun suggested, that a member of the 
 same family should supersede him. Rughoojee was, therefore, sent for to 
 Poona, and received the investiture of Soobehdar : Putwurdhun became his 
 security for the payment of tfie arrears of tribute, rated at fifty lacks, and 
 Rughoojee engaged to subdue the Gond Raja. Rughoojee took his uncle 
 prisoner and he was sent to be confined at Satara. The Gond Raja, Buklit 
 Boolund, having died without issue, an illegitimate son of Chand Sultan, 
 named Meer Buhadocr, usurped the Government in Gondwana ; tiiough 
 three legitimate sons were living, viz. : Boorahan Shah, Akber Shah, and 
 Wulee Shah. The latter had been put to death by the usurper, and his mo- 
 ther called upon Rughoojee to avenge it, at a time that the -crafty Mahratta 
 was assembling troops to invade GondAvana, in pursuance of his engagement 
 with Putwurdhun, who had provided funds for the payment of 10,000 horse. 
 Rughoojee invaded the province, and encountered Meer Buhadoor ; but botb- 
 armies drew off ; and Meer Buhadoor was, afterwards, seduced by his oppo- 
 nent to an interview, and treacherously put to death : the victor restored the- 
 other brothers ; and, having received Pownec, Brimapooree, &c. in Jagheer, 
 returned to Berar A domestic quarrel shortly after happened, and Akber Shah 
 wounded his elder brother, and made him prisoner ; when the confined 
 prince entreated Rughoojee, again to enter the province : on his arrival at 
 Brimapooree, Akber Shah met him, with an army of 15,000 men ; of these, 
 12,000 were detached, by Rughoojee's contrivance, when he surprized, and 
 dispersed, the remaining 3,000 men. Akber Shah fled, with about 100 horse ; 
 but he was overtaken, near Deogurh, and his followers being then finally 
 dispersed, he reached Aurungabad, a solitary fugitive ; and was sent, by 
 Nazir Jung, to his father's court, at Hydrabad. Nizam-ooUMoolk was^ 
 preparing to espouse his cause, when Akber Shah died, in 1745 ; and Rughoo- 
 jee, from this date, became undisputed Raja of Gondwana. About this 
 time he received the title of Sena-Sahib-Soobah. He ruled seventeen years ; 
 and died in 1753, leaving four sons : Janoojee and Sabajee, the elder, were 
 by his younger wife ; and Beembajee and Moodajee, by his first wife. He 
 divided his territory between them. To Janoojee* was left the supremacy, 
 with the title of Sena-Sahib-Soobah, and Dcogurh was assigned to him : he 
 reigned about twenty years, and died ; having adopted Bapoo Sahib, other* 
 wise Rughoojee, the eldest son of his brother, Moodajee ; who was afterwards 
 confirmed, as Sena-Sahib-Soobah. Sabajee had Berar assigned to Mm ; 
 Beembajee had Chuteesgurh ; and Moodajee had Chundunpooree. Dureea 
 Baec, the widow of Janoojee, officiated as regent, with Sabajee's assistance, 
 during the minority of Bapoo Sahib. Moodajee, conceiving that he had best 
 right to the office of guardian to his own son, collected troops, and gave battle 
 to Sabajee, at Pachgaom, near Nagpoor, on 27th January, 1775, and was 
 defeated : the victor approached his brother, and was in the act of uttering 
 some consolatory expressions, when Moodajee drew a pistol, and shot him 
 through the head : Moodajee, by this act of atrocity, became guardian of his 
 child, and ruler in Gondwana. He died in 1788, and his son Rughoojee, the 
 Sena-Sahib-Soobah, succeeded. The younger sons of Moodajee, viz. : Chim- 
 na Bapoo, and Venkojec Munya Bapoo, otherwise Khundojee Bhonslay,

 had Chundunpoor assigned to tliem, in Jagbeer. The Sena-Saliib-Soobah 
 sent his contingent, of/ 10,000 horse, to join the Peshwa, in the war against 
 Tippoo, and his brothers accompanied it. Chimna Bapoo greatly distinguish- 
 ed himself at the siege of Sadauiy,in 1786; and it is said, that in the last 
 assault, the greater part of his division were amongst the slain : he had the 
 title of Sena-Buhadoor, with presents in Jewels, rated atone lack of rupees, 
 conferred upon him, on his return to Nagpoor : the Raja, however, became 
 jealous of him, and fearing equally, to allow him to conduct the re-inforce- 
 ments, or accompany them himself, and leave his brother behind at Nagpoor, 
 lie purchased the absence of his contingent, by paying a contribution of 
 10,00,000 rupees towards the war. The Raja is said to have used incantations, 
 for the destruction of Chimna Bapoo, who died in 1795. Rughoojee reigned 
 forty years, and died in 1816. He was succeeded by his son, Baila Raja, 
 otherwise Pursojee, who was blind, and reputed (as usual in such cases) to be 
 the victim of witchcraft. He was murdered in 1817, by Appa Sahib, his 
 cousin-german, the son of Munya Bapoo, who ascended the Gaddee. After a 
 short reign, remarkable for repeated perfidy towards the British Government, 
 he was arrested, but escaped irom his escort, on the way to Allahabad, which 
 had been flxed upon as the place of his confinement ; he is now a fugitive, 
 forgotten, and friendless. He was, by the latest accounts, residing in privacy 
 at Lahore, upon a scanty allowance from Runjeet Singli^ The revenue of the 
 Nagpoor State is rated at 40,00,000 rupees, exclusive of the revenue of the 
 territories alienated for the payment of the Subsidiary Force. The military 
 establishment consists of two regiments of infantry, clothed and disciciined 
 in every respect like the Company's regular sepoys, and 3,000 irregular horse, 
 the whole commanded by British officers. This is exclusive of ga^-risons to 
 forts, and the Sebundy employed upon revenue and police duties.

 THE MODERN DIVISION of BUNDELCUND and NAGPOOR 
 
 STATE. 
 
 About the end of the sixteenth century the province of Gurh, or Gurah, 
 and Mundela, was held by a number of independent Zumeendars, who each 
 governed within their own limits. One of the family of Lodi,t named Dul- 
 put Shah, seems to have been the greatest among these Zumeendars, and to 
 have been looked up to as chief in the province. He died in A. D. 1585, and 
 was succeeded, in his influence, by his widow Doorgawutee, who, in 1600, 
 being defeated by the emperor's forces, stabbed herself, leaving the province 
 in possession of the royal authorities. Adhur Thakoor, a Kaet, then minis- 
 ter, on this went to Delhi, and obtained the investiture for Chunder Shah, 
 
 * Why should any original historical notice of a newly acquired country, and of which 
 but little is known, stand a chance of being consigned to oblivion in some one of the bundles 
 of papers which my heirs may one day direct to be sold by weight in the bazar. This account 
 of the provinces of Bundelcund, Gurah, Muiidela, &c. supposed lo have formed, formerly 
 the dominion of Raja Chutter Saul, exhibits an alienation successively of district after 
 ^district from his posterity, till the last of his descendants was subdued by the Bhonslay pf 
 Nagpoor, — thrown into confinement, and his remaining possessions annexed to the Nagpoor 
 atate. Many of these districts, now denominated the Saugor and Nerbudda territories, form 
 part of the acquisitions of the Honorable Company, arising out of the events of the war of 
 1817-lft ; and the rest are held by the descendants of the ancient possessor who are attached 
 to the British interests under the usual engagements, viz. protection against enemies, on the 
 condition of paying tribute, or furnishing a contingent to be employed m subordinate co- 
 cperaiion with the British troops.

 Pergunna of Karobag, comprising 700 villages, which was afterwards con- 
 ferred upon Mahadjee Sindhia by the Emperor, in 1789, with the Vizarut 
 of the empire. Chunder Shah, was, it is said, murdered by his own son, 
 Mudhookur Shah, who ruled until 1614 when he died of leprosy. He was 
 succeeded by his son Prem Narraen, who reighed nineteen years, until Beer- 
 singh Deo, and Hursingh Deo, the Boondelly Rajas of Dutteeah, invaded 
 his country, and having seduced him to an interview, treacherously put him 
 to death in 1633, and usurped, for a time, the Government of the province. 
 Hurdesa, the son of Prem Narraen, was at Delhi at the time of his father's 
 murder, but returned home on hearing of it, and concealing himself in the 
 jungle, was joined by many of the Zumeendars, and, with their aid ejected 
 the usurpers. He reigned until 1659 when he died, and was succeeded by 
 his son Chuttur Saal, who died in 1671. His son Keshury Shah then succeed- 
 ed and reigned six years, when he was murdered by his half brother, Hurbunus, 
 when out hunting, supposed at the instigation of Pahar Singh, their cousin, 
 who came from Delhi, says the legend, for this purpose. In 1677, Neerun- 
 shah, the son of the deceased, a boy seven years of age, was placed upon the 
 Gaddee, but the conspirators, Pahar Singh and Hurbunus, having collected an 
 army, the young prince took refuge with Bukht Boolund, the Raja of Deo - 
 gurh, who espoused his cause, defeated the conspirators, and Pahar Singli 
 having fallen in the battle, Neerunshah was restored to his Government, 
 and conferred the districts of Chahooree-Seonee and Chuppura, rated toge- 
 ther at 1,00,000 rupees, upon Bukht Boolund. In 1742 the Bhonslay subdued 
 all the Raja of Deogurh's territories except these two named districts. la 
 1767 Janoojee Bhonslay proceeded to Poona, when Mujid Khan, a Patan, 
 one of his most distinguished officers, accompanied him. The Peshwa, for 
 what purpose does not appear, seduced Janoojee to the palace, where he 
 determined to keep him in durance. On this Mujid Khan, under pretence of 
 demanding their arrears of pay, went to the palace, with about 100 of hi*? 
 followers, and having obtained access to Janoojee, in a mutinous and tumultu- 
 ous manner, seizing his hand, dragged him forth from the intended place of 
 his confinement, declaring that he must first discharge the arrears due to his 
 troops. By this stratagem he was carried to camp, and afterwards escaped 
 to Nagpoor. Mujid Khan, for this service, had the two aforenamed districts 
 conferred upon him, on condition of his subduing them, and his descendants 
 now hold great part of the Chuppara district, in Jagheer,* under the British 
 Government, to whom these districts were ceded in 1818. 
 
 Juggot Rae, son of the famous Chuttur Saul, took the following Pergunnas 
 from Neerunshah, viz. Saugor, Billeroo, Runoly, Tuyano, and Dummode, 
 together rated at a revenue of 2,05,000 rupees, which were afterwards given 
 with Kalpee, and other districts, to the Peshwa, by Chuttur Saul. Five more 
 Pergunnas, viz. Burdee, Mopal, Goonurgurh, Raisseen, and Bairsceah, 
 together rated at 7,00,000 of rupees, appear about this time to have been 
 alienated by the Peshwa from this dominion, and to have fallen into the 
 hands of Mahomed Hyat Khan Rohilla, one of the Peshwa's officers, who 
 assassinated Chynshah, then in charge.f Raja Neerunshah died in 1730, and 
 was succeeded by his son, Maharaj Shah, who was killed at the assault of 
 Mundela by the Mahrattas, in 1742. The Peshwa, Nana Saliib, then con- 
 firmed Seoraj, the son of the deceased Raja, as his successor, exacting a 
 Nuzur of 1,00,000 rupees on his installation, and fixing an annual tribute of 
 3,00,000 rupees, which was assigned to Rughoojee Bhonslay in Jagheer. 
 
 * I am uncertain whether this Jagheer has ilot lapsed to the British Government, by the 
 decease of the grandson of Mujid Khan without heirs.

72 ACCOUNT OP GURAH, MUNDELA, &C. 
 
 This prince died in 1749, and was succeeded by his brother Nizam Shah, who 
 transferred the Pergunnas of Deoree, Punagurh. Gourjamur and Meettee ; 
 together 1,200 villages, and rated at three lacks of rupees, to the Mahrattas, 
 in lieu of the chouth or tribute. In 1779, Khundoojee Bhonslay, surnamed 
 Chimna Bappoo, on his route to invade Orissa, deprived Nizam Shah of the 
 Pergunnas of Kunjee, Khyrogurgh, Kurrola and Khurowgurh, comprising, in 
 all, 1,400 villages, and rated together at 6,00,000 rupees. He reigned 27 
 years, and dying without issue, was succeeded by his nephew, Nurhar Shah, 
 who held the remaining twenty-seven Pergunnas about two years, when he 
 was dispossessed of them by the Peshwa^s Generals Lukshmun Rao, surnamed 
 Boondely, and his deputy Moropunt, surnamed Mundely. The circumstance 
 which led to the final subversion of Nurhar Shah's Government was as 
 follows. Lukshmun Rao, with Moropunt and Veesajee Punt under him, 
 had been put in charge of the Mahratta possessions north of the Nerbudda, 
 by the Peshwa. But the former had become jealous of his colleague and 
 deputy Moropunt, who was renowned for his skill and bravery, and ha^ him 
 thrown into confinement, from whicli he escaped. Lukshmun Rao shortly 
 after discovered a conspiracy against him among the Zumeendars, headed by 
 Nurhar Shah, when Moropunt seasonably presented himself with assurances 
 of fidelity. They then assembled a force, overturned the Government of 
 Nurhar Shah, threw him into confinement, and annexed the province of 
 Gurah-Mundel, and the other districts belonging to that prince, together 
 twenty-seven Pergunnas, with a revenue rated at 15,02,905 rupees, to the 
 Mahratta possessions in 1778. These districts were held by them till 1793, 
 when the Peshwa, agreeably to a promise given some years before, conferred 
 them upon Khundoojee Bhonslay, in reward for his services at the capture 
 of Badamee in 1786. The Bhonslay appears at this time to have had a well 
 equipped force of 11,000 men, under leaders of experience, which after the 
 battle of Kurdla, he employed in wresting the above districts, for which he 
 had obtained sunnuds, from the possession of Lukshmun Rao and Moropunt. 
 The latter, who was a brave and active officer, was encountered and defeated 
 in two battles, when the whole of the twenty-seven Mahals of Gurah and 
 Mundela, above mentioned, fell under the Nagpoor State. Eleven of these 
 Mahals lay to the south of the Nerbudda, and were rated at 6,73,750 rupees ; 
 and 16 north of the river, rated at 8,29,155 rupees. Moropunt died of a 
 disease called Patea, and Lukshman Rao a natural death, Radhabaee, the 
 widow of the latter, and their son Venaik Rao, were permitted to retain four 
 forts on the Nerbudda, viz. Dhamoree :* Chowragurh : Mundel : and Tez- 
 gurh, of which the two former afterward held out against the British troops 
 in 1818. Bapoo Sahib, on obtaining possession, gave the Soobeh of Gurah 
 to his relation Nana Ghatgay : that of Shrecnugur to one of his Mootusud- 
 dees, Mahadjee Punt Mukhlasee, and the Soobeh of Seeonee-Hoosingabad 
 was bestowed upon the Nuwab Sidum Ali Khan. In 1809 Meer Khan 
 advanced to Chowragurh, whicli induced Venaik Rao to call upon the Bhons- 
 lay for assistance, and Mahadjee Punt marched in consequence from Shrec- 
 nugur. On Meer Khan's retreat, possession was taken of Venaik Rao'sf four 
 forts and a fixed sum assigned to him in lieu. Nana Ghatgay died in 1810, 
 having raised Jubbulpoor from a small village into a populous and thriving 
 town, and it is now the modern capital of the province. Jeejaba GhatgayJ 
 succeeded his father and managed during two years. He was superseded by 
 Ramjee Tatia, a deputy of HurbajeePunt Kuturny, who had charge of tlic 
 Soobeh in 1818, when events transferred it to the Honorable Company. Ram- 
 jee Tatia is now at Nagpoor, employed as Dewan to Her Highness the Regent 
 Buka Baee. 
 
 * I am uncertain whether this is Dhamoree or Dhamonee. 
 
 i Venaik Rao has been provided for in the settlement with ihe Chief of Saug-or ; see page G7. 
 
 t This chief now resides at Kolapoor, vilh the Raja of which his fnhnly is connecledby 
 marriage, and under which Governmer.t he holds a Jagheer, r.ited at 8,000 rupees. He is not 
 related, liowever, to the KaguUair Ghatgay,

 Routes through Kutch. 
 
 Places, &c. 
 
 Troops crossing to Chorar ought to halt 
 here till their baggage comes up, and, 
 troops going out of Kulch ougi t to en- 
 camp near it before crossing the Runn 
 in preference to remaining at Addysir 
 The road after this leads to Peeprala, 
 not Royoo, the I'oad to which is 
 higher up.

 Note, — There is seldom more than a 
 foot and a half of water, and very lit- 
 tle mud ; it dries by November, and fills 
 by April. 
 
 This road is good even in the depth 
 of the monsoon. The rivers which 
 occur only flow in the rains, and very 
 soon run down. There is a variation 
 in this route by going from Vijpassir 
 by Addooee to Cheetrore— avoiding 
 Lakree.

 Total miles ... . 
 
 Note. — The Runn is seldom passable 
 here before December, on account of 
 its breadth which is 8m. 6f. The near- 
 est village is Vowa, which is 3^m. from 
 the E. bank, or 12m. 2f. from the west 
 bank. — Dookurwarru is 5^m. from 
 Vova. 
 
 In crossing over to Dookurwarru 
 there is no necessity for going by Bhey- 
 la as the road strike; oft' from Row and 
 is as follows. Row to Geeree, 4m. 
 Geeree to Mooanu, 16m, by which a 
 
 stance of SJ miles is saved. 
 
 The whole of the above route is pass- 
 able in the monsoon as the wvers are 
 small.

 The dak crosses the Runn at this place,

 From Cambay to Kairah, 
 
 Note. —The Roads to the northward 
 and westward of Muhee River ars en- 
 tirely over a sandy soil and after the hea- 
 viest £a'b of rain art free from mud. In 
 some few places, particularly between 
 Cambay, Kairah, and the west bank of 
 the Sauburmuttee, they are liable to be 
 flooded, this tract being remarkably 
 low and flat, but it is seldom that they 
 are not passable for wheeled carriages. 
 
 The Road from Baroda to Jumboo- 
 sur, is over the game kind of soif, and 
 is at all times equally good. The Road 
 from Baroda to Meagam is of a similar 
 description with the exception of the 
 bldck soil intervening in a trifling de- 
 gree in one or two places. 
 
 From Jumboosur to Tunkaree Bun- 
 der, aud all the southward of these 
 places and Meagam, through the A-| 
 mode and Broach Pergunnas, to the 
 north bank of the Nerbudda River, the 
 soil changes to rich black mould, and 
 a few hours heavy rain rendeni the 
 roads quite impassable for carts.

 Note.— This route was measured by 
 Lieutenant Beek of the 9lh Regiment, 
 under instructions from the Quarter 
 Master General, last year, and is more 
 likely to be correct, as far as regards 
 the distances, than No. XII. in the 
 Itinerary which is the same route great 
 rart of the way. Lieutenant Beek ob- 
 serves that his baggage was conveyed 
 upon carts from Khandala to Mali- 
 gaom, and that the only difficult part 
 for carts was the descent from Dolsena. 
 Under these circumstances I am of 
 opinion that the best route from Bom- 
 bay to Maligaom is the one now offer- 
 ed ; there is less jungle than on the road 
 by Bhewndy andtheTuU ghat: (LIV. of. 
 the Itinerary reversed,) a grsater facility 
 of obtaining carriage, and, as fiar as 
 Tuhgaom, is a more frequented road.

 be obtained in the aajoming Kutcuery 
 and Treasury. Mahar is a populoui 
 town, aflbrding abundance of supplies, 
 and where 60 or 70 hafiials may be ob- 
 tained, so that a traveller ma;y easily 
 make his arrangements to run up to 
 Mahabuleshwur by dak on the day of 
 his arrival, 
 
 Over a level and good road to 
 Poladpoor, 20 shops and Dhur-

 Note. — At two miles from Mahar, 
 the river J!?aweitry is crossed, the chan- 
 nel broad and stony, but not much wa- 
 ter in it The best place to encamp 
 is in "i grove of n.aiigo trees close to 
 the village, and near the r.ver.

 ellers find accomniodalion, and tents 
 should be pit-^hed in front of it, or on 
 the hi^h ground beyond the village. 
 The foot of the Par bhat is 3 miles 4^ 
 fuilongs from Poladpoor: the first as- 
 cent of nearly one mile is easj ; it is 
 then abrupt for 3;^ fur. then a level of 5

 Note. — At 6 fur. from Par the Royna 
 river is crossed, and at 1 mile the Run- 
 tanda Ghat commences. The Ghat is 
 exceedingly rocky and steep, but the 
 rest of the way is less steep, and the 
 road good ; there is a well of good 
 water, ard a shady resting place at the 
 summit of the Ghat. 
 
 From the top of the Gbat to the 
 ground chosen for the Hospitnl is 2

 7 furlongs further, and the road good.

 N. B. — The time of high water, =:==. 
 at the full and change of the 
 moon at Bankoot is about eleven 
 o'clock. (See page 166 of Iti- 
 nerary) and it will occupy 24t 
 
 hours or two tides to reach Ban- 
 hoot from Bombay ; with an un- 
 Javoi able wind, and twelve hours 
 when Javorable. 
 
 It is recommended to leave 
 Bombay by the first or last quar- 
 ter of the Moon, between the 
 months of November, and Feb- 
 ruary, in order to make a speedy 
 passage. After February, to the 
 middle of May, (when the JS. W. 
 monsoon commences) there will 
 be no obstacle io a speedy passage 
 to Bankoot. It is also recom^ 
 mended to sail from Bombay in 
 the evening so as to arrive off' 
 Bankoot next morning, in order 
 to get the advantage of the sea 
 breeze in jrroceeding up the River.

 From the Residency to PuUana,

 Mairtah lies east VZ miles from Oodee- 
 poor, to which there is an excellent car- 
 riage road through a ghat, the only 
 one leading into the valley of Oodee- 
 poor, This road was constructed with 
 infinite labour, under the superinten- 
 dence of the Political Agent, Captain 
 Cobbe. 
 
 Road notth, over a level plain. Oo- 
 deepeor range of hills on the left, and 
 from the surface of the plain several 
 detfiched ranges and hills rise One of 
 these is called Nhar Muggra or Tiger's 
 hill, tied remarkable as the place where 
 Holkar put several English Qificei's to 
 death. 
 Nauthwarrah or Nathdwara, 
 
 Note — Road north,— first three or 
 four miles country similar to yesterday, 
 after this the road becomes rugged, 
 and passes through several ghats none 
 of which are difficult. The town is 
 situated on the inner slopes of a group of 
 hills — the entrance being by ghats, 
 through which there is an excellent 
 p-oad or terracs. 
 
 The temple of Nauthwarrah is sacred 
 to the god Krishna, here called Gove- 
 ren Nautjee. It is held in the highest 
 estimation by all of Vishnnva persua- 
 sion throughout Hindoostan. The 
 image of the god here worshipped, is 
 believed by them to be the original one 
 which was formerly at Bindrabund, 
 near Muttra, and the reason they give 
 for its leaving the birth place of 
 the god is this, viz. that one of the 
 sovereigns of Delhi built a Mosque in 
 the neighbourhood of the temple of 
 Krishna, and thus polluted this once 
 sacred city. The god was therefore 
 wroth, and caused his image to take a 
 journey under ground— th^t it made its 
 appearance in different places in Hin- 
 doostan, at each of which a temple is 
 built, but at last it settled at Nauthwar- 
 rah, which from that time became the 
 head-quarters of the Vishnavas. The 
 priest of this temple lives in sovereign 
 stace, and maintains a considerable 
 force of Cavalry and Infantry. He is 
 received by the different Rajahs in this 
 part of the country, as a superior. 
 They pay him the first visit, and take 
 their seat on his right, but when he '

 hood. The temple is rather an elegant 
 building, consisting of a series ofDomes 
 surrounding one of large size, and the

 ?v. B. — A portion of the thirty rupees demurrage^ noticed in the 5th pm-^i-. of 
 the Advertisement, will be returned to the traveller from Bombay on hi% arrival 
 at Poona, provided he has been punctual to time. Attention to the not -\ ^rpe 
 134 of the Itinerary is recommended to persons travelling dak between />^ ::<ij# 
 nnd Poona. 
 
 There are Taverns at every stage on the road to Poona, and the prices for h. 
 freshments, Liquors, ^c. (which are exhibited upon a board hung up in a conspic- 
 uous place) are very reasonable. There is always plenty of carriage of all sorts 
 (except hamals,) at Panwell, and the rates of hire are shewn on the next page. 
 
 As gentlemen sometimes are no: sufficient ly explicit in their instructions when 
 requiring a dak to be laid for them, the following form of a Letter is recommend^ 
 ed to their attention, 
 
 (FORM.) 
 LETTER OF ADVICE to the POST M4STERaT POONA. 
 To The DEPUTY POST MASTER at POONA, 
 Sir, 
 
 I request yon will have the goodness to direct a Dak to be laid for me be- 
 tween Panweil and Poona ; I propose to leave Panwell on the 
 at o'clock f morning or evening.) It will be requisite that Baugy- 
 
 toen should accompany each set of Bearers, and that Masauljee's should be 
 sent to the Stations of and which 
 
 I propose to pass during the night. 
 
 Mr. will follow me and take up the Dak on the following 
 
 day, for whom I request the favour of your making the necessary arrange- 
 ments. 
 
 A receipt for the amount of the D^k, together with demurrage, on account 
 of Ml. which has been paid at the General Post Office, is 
 
 herewith transmitted to you. I have, \ c. 
 
 THE BANGY ESTABLISHMENT. 
 
 To the Editor of the Bombay Courier, 
 Sir, 
 
 Having reason to believe that the nature of the Bangy Establishment, now 
 existing between the Presidency and this station, is not generally understood, 
 which occasions to the department and myself unnecessary trouble, I request 
 t"he favour of your givirg publication to this letter. 
 
 The Bangy Establishment cDusistsof twenty hamals, stationed at ten differ- 
 ent places, two at each, from Bombay to Poona. The p.ckets, or parcels, are 
 contained in covered cane baskets which are sealed up at the office from which 
 they are despatched, and opeied only at the office to which they are addressed. 
 
 The Bangy was originally established for the convenience of the communi- 
 ty at Poona, as well as to aid the mails, and the advantage of this might be 
 extended to places in the interior. I shall be happy, for a Jew month.c, to 
 forward any packages arriving by B.in<j:y, and addiessed to my care ; but the 
 transmisson to me of a receipt from the head writer of the General Post Office, 
 for the amount of the cooly hire from Poonah to the place to which the pac - 
 kage is intended to be forwarded, is indispensable. Letters on this subject 
 should be " Post Paid,'* and addressed to '^ The Post Master at Potna.'* 
 
 The usual rates of cooly hire at Poona are as follows, and the same rate 
 is charged for a package of five pounds weight as for one of 30. Packages 
 will be committed, through the Bazar Muccadum, to trust worthy persons ; 
 but it is proper to notify, that the department is not responsible for any that 
 may be lost.

 %* The Hire of a Cart with two bullocks from Panwell to Poena is 8 
 rupees : this includes the expense of taking the Cart-load to the top of the 
 Ghat, by men, which usually costs about two rupees. 
 
 Return Camels are sometimes met with at Panwell, but the Rate of Hire 
 depends upon the wants of the parties. 
 
 It is useful to the traveller, and certainly only humane to the ferry- 
 men, at Poonowla and Ound, to apprize the former, that the latter have 
 no monthly pay, and that they depend for subsistence, principally, upon such 
 of their fellow creatures, more fortunate in that respect, whom they convey 
 across in their boat. It is only during the rains, that these rivers are not 
 fordable, and there are but two ferries on the direct road between Panwell and 
 Poena. Gentlemen going to Poona, will never be refused a passage over, though 
 they may not have money upon their persons, but it should not be forgotten 
 that some one of the Boatmen has to trudge all the way to Poena to obtain 
 their dues when they are not paid at the ferry. The amount is but trifling ; 
 i rupee for a Palankeen and Bearers : i rupee for a horse : and 2 pice for 
 each individual.

 *** Candy and Maund have already become part of our lan- 
 guage, it is too late therefore to restore them to their proper form 
 of Khundee and Mun ; — willing to accommodate myself to the 
 European and Native I have written the first Khandy. 
 
 Rutl, used to express an English pound, is, I ima>gine, the Rottolo 
 of Italy and the Levant, 
 
 I have omitted the Itinerary Measures of India in the following 
 pages f as m^ore curious than useful. 
 
 There is also a measure, or mode of calculation, in use among 
 Shawl Merchants, who mark all clothes of value, especially shawls, 
 by numbers, and sell, or buy, at so many annas per lack. A little 
 knowledge of these rates, might save my fair friends, occasional- 
 ly^ from imposition, and trouble, and should another edition of 
 this publication ever be called for, I may then be more able to 
 give an account of both the Shawl manufacture and traffic* 
 
SECTION IV. 
 
 WEIGHTS ANii MEASURES. 
 
 Throughout India, and particularly the Deccan, a very considerable diver** 
 sity prevails, not merely in every district, but in every \illage, in Measures, 
 whether of Weight, Length, or Capacity; nor wre the subdivisions to be foun^ 
 in a determinate propoilion to each other. To whatever this may be owing, 
 vi^hether t») ihe want of a c»»mmon, or universal standard in former times, the 
 decay, or abrasion of the measures and weights, the knavei7 of the owners of 
 them, or to the apathy or connivance of the native district authorities, isproba- 
 bly immaterial, but the present ill- defined system must lie felt by all the class 
 of bujeis as a hardship, and thej, doubtless, would be grateful for any benefi- 
 cial arjiendment. 
 
 There are three kinds of Weights in use in India; the first are for weighing, 
 drugs, gold, silver, &c the second for all bulky articles, — and the third for 
 pearls and precious stones. 
 
 Those of the first class seem to be founded on the weight of a tola through- 
 out India, and the tola, under most Governments, seems to conform with the 
 rupee, or principal Current Coin of Account. In towns the weights generally 
 are of iron or lead, sometimes in a determinate form, but oftener as a shapeless 
 mass. In many villages however, the shopkeepers have only basalt stones 
 as weights, which are mtt with in beds ol rivers. Indeed when great weights 
 are required they are generally made of stones, and under any circumstance 
 considerable advantage would be derived by the people were the use of stones 
 as weights prohibited under severe enactments. The Table of Weight an- 
 nexed, will shew the great variety of the first class, (and its corresponding 
 English Weight) which exists throughout Western and Central India. Nor 
 are the weights, at the Presidency less multifarious, than they are in the 
 interior. In the following Table of the various weights, by which goods are 
 sold in Bombay, it will strike one as a singular incongruity, that, varying as 
 those weights do with almost every variety of goods, and that, serving as such 
 must, to clog conmierce, this system should be submitted to, when the fact is 
 known, that actually every article* is weighed by one Weight, viz. The Eng- 
 lish AvoiRDUPoiDS, and afterwards reduced, by calculation, into the great 
 variety of local Weights, vvhich are merely nominal. 
 
 How much would it facilitate commercial operations, were the English 
 Weights, the only ones actually in use, substituted for these local ones, that 
 exist but in a name, and what an advantage would surh afford the stranger in 
 readily comprehending at once the value of goods, and simplifyini;: his calcula- 
 tions. It is most difficult to overcome native prejudices in favour of customs, 
 they have, for generations, been familiar with, yet might nrt firmness on the 
 part of the European Mercantile community in Bombay effect a change. 
 
 We have an instance of the failure of such, however, in the attempt to alter 
 the custom, when stiles are made by a per centage on the Invoice,* of valuing 
 
 * This circumstance is not g^enerally known to gentlemen at Out-Stations, who receive for 
 reply, from the Bombay Shopkeeper, when coniplaining of his extravagnnt prices, " What can 
 do, Master ? —Give Mercfiant so large per cent on Invoice;" and this he at once verifies by the 
 production of the Invoi. e and the agreeujcnt at so much per cent. Seldom does the party com- 
 plaining know, however, that 8 Rupees only were given for the Pound Sterling, when the ex- 
 change required perhaps 12.

 The Small Weight, commonly called Gold Smith's Weight, is either 
 founded on the Goonj or Ruttee, or the mustard seed. The Goonj or Ruttee 
 is the small red seed, whether of the white or red species, of the abrus preca- 
 torius ; these seeds are very uniform in size, and the plant producing them 
 grows wild all over India. Two seeds, otherwise Goonj, make one wall, a 
 weight represented by a seed of the Cheelur. This weight is further subdivi- 
 sions as follows : — two Barley Corns=l Goonj, and eight mustard seeds=one 
 Barley Corn. Under different Governments of India, the tola is composed of 
 different proportions of these Goonj, or of the massa. The Bengal Tola, being 
 of 100 Goonj or 12^ Massa— the Malwa Tola of 96 Goonj or twelve Massa. 
 The Bombay Tola of 92 Goonj, or 11^ Massa. Several districts in Southern 
 Konkan of 92 Goonj, or 11^ Massa ; 90 Goonj, or 11 J Massas ; and 96 Goonj, 
 or 1 Massas. The pice of Kotah in Malwa, is equal in weight to 18 Massa, 
 so that from these we may hope to obtain something approaching to the com- 
 mon weight of the Massa or Goonj, the fundamental measures of weight. 
 
 The Weight of the Bengal Massa in troy grains is 15.353, — being 191.916 
 troy grains, the Weight of a Calcutta Sicca Rupee, divided by 12.5, the num- 
 ber of Massa in one tola. The weight in Troy grains of the tola in Malwa 
 is 190 grains ; which being divided by 12, (the number of Massa in one tola) 
 gives 15.8333 Troy grains for the weight of the Massa. 
 
 In ascertaining (says Major Sykes,) the weight Troy of a Goonj, with a 
 Hydrostatic balance, turning with the 10th of a grain, the results were as fol- 
 lows: — 32 seeds, or Goonj, weighed 60.5 grains Troy — 16 seeds or Goonj, 
 "weighed 30.5 grs. — 8 — weighed 15.1, and 56 seeds — weighed 105.2 grains, — 
 which would give an average weight of 1.914 grains Troy for each seed ; 96 
 of these would make the tola equal to 183.7536 grains Troy. But as the 
 seer weight of 80 rupees, or 13.800 grains troy, is to consist of 72 tolas, the 
 tola should weigh 191.6666 grains instead of 183.7536, affording sufficient 
 evidence that the tola in use, like every other weight, is below the proper 
 standard.

 MEASURES OF CAPACITY 
 
 Whether Measures of Capacity in India are de rived from those of l^njrth, 
 a|::reoab1y to the notions of many able theorists in Europe, and in which 
 they are borne out by very ancient writings anrong the Hindoos, or whether 
 they were invented Olio inallv tnerely to save trouble in weighing gratis and 
 liquids, is a subject of inquiry for the philosopher. I am much incline i to the 
 latter opinion, as far as regards Western India, from observing that the same 
 denominations belong to the Measure of Weight as to the Measure of Capa- 
 city, and also, relatively, to their subdivisions. In this case it seems to me 
 highly probable that the Tukka or Tunka, a small Silver Coin, current during 
 the period of the Moghul supremacy, and in which the revenue was collected, 
 and reckoned, throughout the Western Provinces of their Empire, and 
 particularly in the Nizam-Shahee territories, was the foundation of the 
 weights at present in practice throughout the Deccan. Seventy-two of these 
 Tukka go to the Seer, which makes it nearly similar to the Tola, and the 
 nuo-tank, or nine tanks, is still a Measure for Liquids in very general use. 
 The Chetak, or six tanks, is tlie 16th part of a Seer of Weight in the Dec- 
 can : but my inquiries regard the wei<;hts that are in use, and not those that 
 have been. The most popular of the actual Measures of Capacity, are, the 
 Huo-tank, the Seer, the Pusseeree, and the Adhoiec. 
 
 -^»«®©«*— 
 DRY MEASURE. 
 
 The Adholee.— The Dry Measure called Adholee of two seers, which is 
 the largest in use in the Deccan, is, in towns and large villages, made of 
 wood turned in a lathe and lackered. It is in form nearly that of the hour 
 glass and the half seer, \ seer, and \ seer, resembleit in form and lackering. 
 In small villages, where the dealers are poorer, these measures are made from 
 the large hollow bamboo sawed through at the joints. 
 
 The Adholee in the Northern Konkan, consists of 3| and 4 Kutcha Seers, 
 and the number of Adholees to the Kokuni Maund, varies in difterent towns 
 in the Collectorate from 17 to 24. W^here the 4 Seer Adholee obtains, 
 there the Maund contains 20 Adholee. and where the A 'holee is 3^ Seers, 
 there the Maund consists of 24 Adholee; so thnt the Adholee and not the 
 Maund differs: the 17 Adholee Measure is perhaps confined to Salsette. 
 The Kokuni and Arali Khandy are both in jrenef d use in this Collectorate, — 
 the first consists of «even Maunds, the othf'r of eight Maunds. The Ghatti, or 
 Deccan Khandy, is also in use, and s us(*d for measuring salt. 
 
 In most countries south of the Nerbudi^a grains are .^old by measures, but 
 in selling the flour, a measured seer of grain is put into one scale, and the 
 flour weighed against it. 
 
 In countries north of the Nerbudda there seems to be no Dry Measure of 
 capacity, and every thing is therefore sold by weight. This appears also to be 
 the case in most of the Nizam's districts adjoining those of Ahmednugur. The 
 introduction of measures into the Deccan appears to be of late date, but on 
 what principle they were constructed it is diificult to conjecture. The solid 
 
WEIGHTS AND MEASURES^ 105 
 
 Contents of a seer of capacity is widely different from a seer of weight throagfh- 
 out the Collectorships of both Po9na and Ahmednugur : the first filled with 
 the grain Bajree varies from 108 to 120 rupees, while the other weighs about 
 80 rupees, or 73 Tola and 4 Massa* 
 
 The Pusseree, or Pinj-seree. There is a measure, as well as weio:ht» 
 termed Pusseree, or Punj-seree, both occasionally met with in the Deccan, but 
 the former is in general use in the Nizam's Country. It ought to contain 
 five seers, as its name imports, but it varies so much, arising either from igno- 
 rance, or fraud, in the construction, that it occasions very general complaint. 
 
 In Gujerat the Punj-seree is, in fact, but the representative of weight, but its 
 cubical contents in ascertained through the medium of a variable stand- 
 ard, that is, one species of grain, rice in the husk, which is liable to fluctua- 
 tion according to the varying weight of that kind of corn in different soils, 
 and seasons. 
 
 The large Dry Measure in Bombay for salt is the para, containing 10^ 
 Adholee, whereof, 100 make an anna — one anna is equnl to 21 tons — and 
 1,600 para, or 16 annas, make one rash, or 40 tons. The Para Measure, 
 when used, is struck off even with the rim by a rod made for the purpose. 
 
 The small Dry Measure for grain is the seer, whereof fo'jr make aJPuheelee, 
 17 Puheelees, a Para : and eight Para, a Khandy :— Batty or Rice in the 
 busk is reckoned by the Moora of 25 Para. 
 
 The Grain Khundee, in the Poona districts, consists of 20 mun : each 
 Mun 12 Puheelee, but sometimes of 16 Puheelees ^ and each Puheelee of 2 
 Adholee : each Adholee of two seers. The subdivisions of the seer are |, f, 
 and ^. The Pulla is a measure of capacity, the contents of which weigh 120 
 seers of 80 Ankoosee rupees the seer, or rather, it is the representative of the 
 wtight called Pulla. The Puheelee at Bheema-Shunkur, Neelsee, and some 
 other places bordering the Konkan, consists of 3i seers only, instead of four. 
 The mun therefore of 12 Puheelee at these places, consists of 42 seers in- 
 stead of 48 Dry Measure. 
 
 LIQUID MEASURES. 
 
 1!'he Liquid Measure is used in the Deccan and Konkan, by the Oil sel- 
 lers, and Spirit dealers : the measures used are of brass or iron, commonly in 
 the form of a truncated cone. Like the other measures the aliquot parts will 
 be found irregular, or varying from truth. Milk in our camps, and indeed in 
 large towns, is sold by arbitrary measures, but they should, properly, be regu*- 
 lated by the seer weight of 80 rupees. 
 
 Oil, Milk, Ghee, and Spirits, are weighed in the Southern Konkan, with the 
 seer of 28 tolas. The vessel in which they are contained being previously 
 weighed, and the weight thereof deducted. Liquids are also vended by 
 weight throughout Gujerat, but the oil and spirit dealers, have measures 
 constructed on the principle of their solid contents being equal to the weight 
 they are intended to represent, hence such measures must vary with the spe- 
 cific gravity of the articles. 
 
 Throughout the Northern Konkan, every Talook seems to have its own Oil, 
 or Liquid, Measure ; it seems, however, to have been originally framed to con- 
 tain, of oil, what would weigh one Kutcha Seer. When oil is bought for re- 
 tail, forty-five seers are reckoned to the maund. 
 
 The Liquid Seer Measure used in Bombay for Spirits, Arrack, and Milk, 
 is equal in weight to 60 rupees, or lib. lOoz. 7dwt. 12gr. troy. The Maund 
 consists of 50 of these seers, and the seer is subdivided into half seers, quarter 
 seers, and the latter into two measures called nuo-tanks, — or nine tanks, 
 or tukka. The measure for oil corresponds with the Maund of 281b., that is, 
 the contents weigh that, and the contents of the seer, consequently, weigh 
 lloz. 4dwt. 
 
106 WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. 
 
 LONG MEASURE. 
 
 TfiE Measures of Length, are the Kathee, the Guz, and thetubit. Tjie 
 first is only used as a land measure, the other two are more used by artificers, 
 and sometimes in measuring piece goods, cloths, silks, &c. not sold by the 
 piece. In most of the provinces under this Presidency the Guz is divided 
 into 20 tussoo. In Gujerat it measures 27.5 inches, making the cubit of 14 
 tussoo, equal to 19.25 inches. In Cambay the Guz is 28.5 inches and the 
 cubit 19.95 inches. At Bombay, and in Malabar, it is 28 inches and the cubit 
 19.6 inches. In the Deccan,the Dooab, the Southern Konkan, Surat, and also 
 in Kutch, the Guz is divided into 24 tussoo, but of a great variety of length, 
 and the cubit into 14 tussoo. The Peshwa's Guz, which is in use in the public 
 departments at Poona, is 33.86 inches. At seven of the principal towns in 
 the Dooab, the Guz varies from 31.75 inches to 34.75 inches, and broad cloth, 
 velvet, chintz, and other articles of Europe manufacture are measured by 
 it. An average, accurately taken, at 12 of the chief towns in Southern Konkan 
 makes the Guz 33.438 inches, and the cubit 19.5()8 inches. In Surat the Guz 
 used by tailors is 27.8, and by artificers 24 inches. In Kutch the Guz is di- 
 vided into 24 tussoo, and measures 26.5 inches. The length of the cubit how 
 ever, almost every where, is usually determined by the mean length of five 
 different men's arms, measured from the elbow to the end of the middle finger : 
 turbans, &c. are sold by this measure, but it is seldom met with out of Surat, 
 as a measure, unless with tailors : purchasers usually measure by their own 
 arm's length. The English yard is in common use at Bombay in measuring 
 Europe manufactures, and indeed in many places in the interioi. 
 
 SUPERFICIAL, AND SOLID, MEASURES. 
 
 Superficial Measures for the measurement of land, Solid Measures for 
 ascertaining the quantity of timber, and many kinds of artificers work, are 
 obtained from the same data, as the measures of length. 
 
 Artificer's Work. In Superficial measurement throughout Gujerat, 
 Deccan, Konkan, and at the Presidency, the reckoning is made by 100 in 
 length, whether Guz or Cubit, by one in breadth. This rule applies also to 
 the manufacture of Carpets, Mats, &c. 
 
 Masonry is calculated by the brass, which is 25 Cubits in length by one in 
 breadth, and one in height. The quantity therefore of the brass varies agree- 
 ably to the Cubit. The Cubit in use among Masons in Bombay is VO inches, 
 (being '4 longer than the timber Guz,) so that a brass of Masonry contains 
 115.74 Cubic feet. 
 
 Timber is measured by the Guz, and the rule for determining the contents 
 is, by the square of the quarter girt multiplied i,*jito the leng^th. A Sawyer's 
 Guz is 32 inches in length, and 9 inches in breadth : — 32X9=288 square inch- 
 es=2 square feet. 
 
 Bombay and Cnnara Measurement of Timber and Plank. 
 
 Timber — ^20 Vissvassa make 1 Vassa — 20 Vassa, 1 Covit, or Candy. 
 
 Plank— Is measured by the Guz of 28 English Inches or 24 Borels : 24 
 Borels in length, — 12 Borels in breadth, and 1 Borel in thickness, make a Guz. 
 A Borel is equal to 1.666 English Inches. 
 
 Malabar Measurement, 
 
 Timber — Is measured by the Candy or Covit — 16 Moganies make 1 Borel — 
 24 Borels=l KoU— 24 Koil=l Covit, or Candy. 
 
 Plank— Is measured by the Guz— thus 16 Moganies make 1 Borel— 12 
 Borels in breadth— 24 Borels in length, and 1 Borel in thickness^ constitute 
 a Guz.

 LANB MEASURES. 
 
 (Extracted from Captain Thomas Jervis's Report. J 
 
 The Land Measures are as follows : — 
 
 The Standard rod of five cubits length used throughout Gujerat, called a gun- 
 tha, also a bans' or bamboo/ sometimes a * moula', and sometimes, a ' wussa'. 
 
 Of five and a half cubits length in the Deccan called a cattiee. 
 
 Of five cubits, and five mooshtees (or palms-breadth) in Malwa, also, called 
 cathee. 
 
 Of five cubits and five mooshtees (or palms-breadth) in the Konkan, also 
 called cathee. 
 
 The length of the several measurers, obtained by Major Williams here under 
 specified, led me to fix the length of the hustu, or cubit, at about 19.3 or 19.4 
 inches, — the districts in which the shorter measures are used being so small in 
 comparison of the districts, in which the larger measures are used.

108 WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. 
 
 In Goojerat the Bheega, or Veega, it is sometimes pronounced, is equal 
 to the square of 20 gunthas ; the square of one guntha being termed a wus- 
 wassa. 
 
 20 Wuswassa, = 1 wussa ; and 20 wussa, = 1 Bheega. 
 
 It may be observed here that the terms wussa, and wuswassa, so generally 
 used in all measures in Goojerat are corruptions of beeswa, and beeswansa, 
 meaning the twentieth part, and twenty-twentieth. 
 
 On the western side of India the Bheega is equal to the Superficial content 
 of a square of 20 Cathees : the square of one Cathee is called a poluh. 
 
 20 poluh = 1 Pand : 20 pands = 1 Bheega : and 120 pands = 1 Chaoor. 
 
 It is customary in the Konkan to reckon 23 pand, equal to one bheega, and 
 the Mhars, whose office it is to measure the land, do not lay the Cathee, or mea- 
 suring rod, on the ground, but raise the one end up, and pass it quickly over 
 to the supj'osed place of the other end, which gives a much less quantity than 
 the true superficial content — this last custom, is also observed iu Goojerat — 
 but in the I)eccan land is measured with a rape which gives the true contents. 
 
 The following is by ^he late Byram Rovvles, Esq. of the Bombay Civil Ser- 
 vice, from whose abilities in revenue matters, we may infer it to be very correct. 
 
 1st. — Akbyr Shah's Bheega (on the authodty of Mr. Colebrooke) 3,025 
 square yards. 
 
 2d.— "Sashtee or Salsette Bheega (on the authority of Mr. Duncan) 3,927 
 square yards. 
 
 3d. — The Bheega of the Neriad Cusba, (by marks on the Chuklasee Bhagul 
 Dhurumsala) 2,994 square yards 4 feet 4 inches. 
 
 4th. — Supposed extent of the large Bheega throughout the Neriad villages, 
 2,500 square yards. 
 
 5th. — Small Bheega of Sulamee, and Posaitu Tenures,^ as well as the Wu- 
 seefa, and other lands, not fully assessed, 1,600 square yards. 
 
 6th.- Bheega of the Western division of Gujerat, comprising grassia 
 tenures, 1,600 square yards. 
 
 7th. — Turab of Mahomedan Law, 1,600 square yards. 
 
 8th. — Kaira Bheega, according to the Patells' rods, 3,404 square yards. 
 
 9th.— The Bengal Bheega, 1,600 square yards. 
 
 [From Colonel Monier William's Meimir, Sgc.'] 
 
 The proportions between the different Land Measures of this country and 
 that of England are illustrated as follows ;— 
 
 Yards. Feet. Inches. 
 
 In an English Statute Acre, 4,840 
 
 In a Standard Koombha of the Jumboosur, Amod, and 
 
 Dehej Purgunnas, • 4,641 20 
 
 In a Standard Beega of the Baroche, Unklesur, and Hansot 
 
 Purgunnas, 2,477 7 64 
 
 In a Standard Beega of the Ahmedabad, Kaira, and Surat 
 
 CoUectorates, 2,844 4 
 
 There are various modes of reckoning land in the Deccan, but they are all 
 founded on the Bheega, measuring, in superficial contents, 400 Cathees of 5 
 cubits, and 5 palms-breadth in length. In the Poona districts 10 Bbeega=l 
 Rooka : 48 Bheega=l Tukka :— a Khandy contains from 20 to 35 Bheega ; 
 and a mun, or Maund, of land is the twentieth part of a Khandy. In 
 Khandes, and in many of the Ahmednugur districts, 4 Bheega=l Purtun, 
 and 80 Bheega=l Dooree. In the Dharwar Zilla, a Koorgee is as much 
 land as can be sown with a drill plough in one day, consequently varying from 
 2 to 8 Bheega.
