considerable Bay exists in this part of the 
peninsula, called the bay of Passir; and the 
range is interrupted, in the north of the bay, by 
a sandy plain through which several villages 
are dispersed. From here 1 crossed the suc- 
cessive ridges towards the Western boundary, 
where likewise several extensive Caverns are 
situated on the Southern Ocean, the chief of 
which are those of Nagassari and Jingkla. 
The constitution of all the successive ridges 
is similar to that of the first and second above 
described: in several places, where vertical 
sections of the hills were exposed, I noticed, 
stoncs of aqueous deposition, either in the 
place where they appear to have been formed, 
or carried by a current to a distance; the for- 
mer separated spontaneously often from immense 
masses, of which entire ridges appear to be com: 
posed in the forms of cubes, rhombs, parallelo- 
pipeds &c. in the others fragments of varions 
forms were jumbled together, and the surface 
was uniformly covered with a friable earthy
