Information was expected 10 result from his travels
IN Calcutta paper OF the 28ti of FEBRUARY last with
which we have been favored, find letter TO The
editor, dated, Subatoo, Jan 81, which mentions that
two mouniaiIeers who accompanied Mr. NJ had ar
rived at the latter place, having LEFT him Oct g. NJ

turned by way of kashmcer, the only practicable
route mt that season OF tho year The length of this
letter precludes the publication of it entire, and we
therefore, make the following extracts furnishing
some information of country hitherto but liltle

OF kooloo, upou the Banks of the Beas OF Hyphasis
OF The Greeks, whence he proceeded to Leh."
The writer states as singular fact, that within five
days travel of Leh upon the confines of China and
Ludak, the mountains rise to the height Of 90 500 feet
ana even higher, OF pure limestone, the qualification
