performance of which they insist; on such occasions, for example, as the crossing of
a high pass, or the attempt to ascend a glacier or a peak. Remonstrances are of no
avail; and the natives are the more reluctant to put off these ceremonies, as they do
not fail to derive practical benefit from them. Thus, when, at the top of a pass for
instance, several sheep and goats have been duly sacrificed (which, as a matter of
course, have been bought at the traveller's expense), and a small portion of the meat
has been scattered towards all points of the compass—acts which the traveller is only
allowed to see from a respectful distance—the remainder is carefully packed up, and
furnishes many an excellent repast for the people who have been so anxious to pro-
pitiate their deities.
Disguise. If intending to penetrate into countries where it may become either
desirable or even imperative to assume disguise, the traveller should take the greatest
precaution to keep all arrangements for such expeditions a profound secret; for therein
lies his principal chance of success. In order to avoid suspicion, it is highly necessary
to commence arrangements as far away as possible from the country it is intended
to visit in disguise. One of the greatest difficulties of all is to secure the services of
a reliable man who may be safely charged with the general execution of the proposed
journey. This difficulty is much increased by the circumstance, that such a man
should also be able to act as interpreter. The salary for such persons is high, and
it is best to make the same dependent upon the success attained. These men are
always reluctant to name a definite sum, preferring to trust their employer's
liberality. Certain it is, that, if they perform their duty well, they are entitled to
a high reward; for the personal risk and danger they incur in such expeditions is
very great.¹ Strict adherence to their suggestions respecting luggage, the merchandize
serving occasionally in lieu of money, and the provisions to be purchased, is advisable,
even if in some points their remarks may seem rather strange and objectionable.
