" Near this munutnetit, but in a separate ins-lo-
cust, stands the niau.olcunt of the famous Katijah
Ayass, father of the celebrated Noce Jehou ; it is of
a neat oetsgou figure, hearing a dome, which is
covered with marble slabs ; the tomb is of marble,
inlaid with flower-work of stone, and bears Arabic
inscriptions of the sink)'-unie Dallies of God,
&c. but what 'is singular enough, neither the
saute of the deemed, nor the time of hit decease
are enticed : this tomb is neglected, and is falling
fast into ruin. To the southward of this, on the
urea plain, is to be teen the mtsmainent of Noes Je-
Adis &gate, Ashrsjiil Ails ;. it is a square of 36
paces, law, with a at roof, the tomb of plain mar-
ble, %wheat any kind of inscription, arid is still iu
good court dial,. Close to it is another, said tocon-
sain the remains other favourite waiting-maid: the
aistesto which are vaulted, but are now in a ruin-
-o.ls state, the wall by which it was inclosed is com-
pletely levelled with the ground, and as the Rajah
pars no attention to it, his Sowari find it s aunt
couven.eat place for the accommodation of them-
selves and their horses. The country on that side
of the river is pretty dell cultivated, and studded
with clamps of mengn, janteen, and plane trees,
eontiguons to the nionuinewa; and in its wider
landscape, 'presenting to the eye a vast extent of
verdant 4datin. The R jab has a- taint here, as
well as at Amrutsur, and also &cannon foundsry,

" This inornioi tge.Rajah chewed me hie rm.
practice within the fort ; at a mark, placed 9.50
yards distant, his gunners fired several renrds
from au English Iran 13-pounder, a Dutch brass
5-pounder, end three other brass guirs.coa ntry made,
and a very fine brass 5-pounder. which he took from
the Potefi/ultaisli. and which bias an iron cylinder,
like tile gnus captured at the battle of Dehil, Mtul
carries very sceutattley. The Rajah, who is it ca-
pital abet, laid his gun, end hit the centre of the
target, the first so.ot. Their carriages are tole.
reedy good, end one of them was lately made by a
carpenter from Dehli, in imitation of owe, though
not equally well executed ; it is constructed of
good, welt-seasoned osso-wood, and cost him 1.100
rupees. They have elevating screws, and in good
order; his Goolandauze are from Perron's and the
beim SIINO*O.I service. They have been well
trained. and are very expert. The English gnn
bears the King's Arms, and was brought into this
country fifty yeses ado, by Jeitid Khan. Subander
of Guserat. This practice with the guns, and
bore exorcise. are the favourite amusements (.f
the Haj.l4, from day-break till 9 o'clock. His
gun-powder is of the common kind. all usually
manufactured in the country. and is made
at Lahore and A mrutsur ?—He has both brass
and iron shot, all beat, and some brass shells,
which he fires out of ten-inch mortars with
wooden fusee*, and which his Goolanslettse in-
formed me answered extremely well, seldom tent-
in; hefire they mile iu contact with the ground.
Three of the Goolaudaure having hit the target
ill this morning's exereire, received each ton re-
eves and a piece of cloth, which kind of reward
he never fails to make to ally of his soldieradtsplap
ing particular beavers or dexterity; an encourage-
ment which, if combined with a regular. geed sys-
tem ofiliatiplinr. would eselt" great eisiulation sod
promote perfettioo, lint without which the natural
indolence and love of ease. of these people, toge-
ther with the inferiority of their understanding, ope.
rate as a liar to that exertion, so necessiry to its at-
tainment. The llsjah is at all time, both feared
and beloved by his soldiers, to whom be is kind awl
