a marginal lagoon two days' journey lower down the river, known as the Jantakköl. It was reported to be then empty, though it had been filled with water at the period of high flood. The upper part of this side-arm bears the name of Jantakköl-aghsi. During the course of the day we passed the following forest-tracts — Siva-kotan, Käpä, Jätim-kirlidi, and Milka. In the last-named locality we observed a masar, situated amongst some sand-dunes, scantily covered with vegetation. Here on the left bank was a shepherds' track, running from the Kodaj-darja to Avat and Ak-su. At this place the river was 56.7 m. broad, and had a mean depth of 0.685 m., a mean velocity of 0.5533 m., and a volume of 2 I.49 cub. ni., in the second.

October loth. A drop of 1.7 cm. in level; the transparency being 37 cm. For a space the stream serpentined in an unprecedented way. At Ghirlang and Akjarsik the woods are again very fine. Here too wild-boar were abundant. By
