GENERAL OBSERVATIONS.

1. To each place the province is added in which it is situated; the abbreviations printed in italics are as follows:

Rim. = Himalaya; Tib. = Tibet ; C. As. = Central Asia.

2. The number of stages between the places contained in this Table is calculated only for the routes in the mountains, and not in the plains. Thus, Marri could be reached from Tashkend, the Russian cantonment in Central Asia nearest to the Indian Empire subject to British government, in a much shorter time by Bokhâra, Kabul, and Peshaur, than by Yarkand and Leh, along which line the stages of this route have been compiled in accordance with the principle just explained. Again, the quickest way of reaching Srinagar (Kashmir) from Nainital is by descending into the plains of India (to Bareli) and then pushing on through the same by dàk as far as Sialkeit.

3. In general the number of stages is calculated only along the principal routes, and not along those which, though nearer, are difficult and impassable for horses.

4. Most of the routes from places situated in the outer parts of the Himalaya (as Nainital, Mässari, Simla, &c.) to those of Central Asia . (as Yarkand, Kashgar, Kokand, &c.) have been assumed, in the compilation of this Table, to pass by way of Leh and across the Karakoram Pass.

5. The time actually required to reach a distant place is, in general, considerably greater than. the number of stages here indicated; as at least after every six marches the traveller will find it imperative to make a day's halt. Thus, even under very favourable circumstances, the journey from Leh to Yarkand will occupy forty days, viz. thirty-four clays of actual travelling and six clays of halts.
