Not only is the garden full of such magnificent specimens, but there are beautiful avenues of them round the town.

The tamarinds of Allahabad are even mentioned in geographical works.
On one side of the lofty wall which surrounds the garden, two caravansaries are built, which are remarkable for their beautiful high portals, their size, and convenient arrangement.

They presented an uncommonly lively appearance, containing people in all costumes, horses, oxen, camels, and elephants, and a large quantity of wares in chests, bales, and sacks.
10th January.

About 3 in the afternoon, we left Allahabad and continued our journey in a post-dock as far as Agra, with some short stoppages.

The distance is nearly 300 miles.
In twenty-two hours we reached Caunipoor (150 miles), on the Ganges, a town which is remarkable for its English settlement.
The journey so far offered little change, an uninterrupted richly- cultivated plain and an unfrequented road.
