The course of this journey lay through a considerable tract of country which had not been explored by any

      European . It extended three hundred miles beyond Lattakoo , which was the limit of his first journey , and it con firmed the conjecture which he had formed , that he should find the country better peopled , and more advanced in civilization , as he proceeded towards the North . The introduction which his missionary objects

      gave him to the Chiefs of the several nations he visited , and the confidence with which he was received by them , afforded him the most favourable opportunities of observing their manners and customs , as well in the administration of

      their public affairs , as in their domestic relations . This was particularly the case with regard to the Mashow and Marootzee nations , whose chief towns , Mashow and Kurreechane , contain several thousand inhabitants . The work will contain a Map of the country through which he travelled , and other illustrative engravings .
