Now that the sugar-cane is ripe, not one cane would be preserved in any field within five miles of any place where the Nazim kept his troops for ten days." _March_ 12, 1850 .-- Seetapoor, nine miles over a plain of muteear soil, the greater part of which is light, and yields but scanty crops without manure, which is very scarce.

Immediately about the station and villages, where manure is available, the crops are good.

The wind continues westerly, the sky is clear, and the blight does not seem to increase.
The 2nd Regiment of Oude Local Infantry is stationed at Seetapoor, but it has no guns or cavalry of any kind.

Formerly there was a corps of the Honourable Company's Native Infantry here, with two guns and a detail of artillery.

The sipahees of this corps, and of the 1st Oude Local Infantry, at Sultanpoor, are somewhat inferior in appearance to those of our own native infantry regiments, and still more so to the Oude corps under Captains Barlow, Magness, and Bunbury.
