It might be put down in Oude, as it was put down by Mr.Willoughby, of Bombay, in the districts under his charge, by making the abolition one of the conditions on which all persons of the Rajpoot clans hold their lands, and strictly enforcing the observance of that condition.
The Government of Oude as now constituted could do nothing whatever towards putting it down in this or any other way.
_January_ 27, 1850 .-- Palee, eight miles north-west.

The road half way from Sandee to Busora, and half way from Busora to Palee, passes over a very light, sandy soil--bhoor.

I have already stated that kutcha wells, or wells without burnt brick and cement, will not last in this sandy soil, while it stands more in need of irrigation.

The road for the last half way of this morning's stage passes over a good doomuteea soil.

The whole country is however well cultivated, and well studded with fine trees; and the approach to Palee is at this season very picturesque.
