A short account of Khyrpoor and the Fortress of Bukur, in North Sind. By 

 Captain G. E. Westmacott, 37^A Regt. Bengal N. I. 



The recent achievements of the British Army in Sind and Kabul have 

 advanced our frontier to the Indus, and placed in our hands the fortress of 

 Bukur and the town of Sukhur in Khyrpoor, places of the first importance, 

 as they command the navigation of one of the finest rivers in the vrorld ; 

 the route by which an army can threaten our territories from the north, 

 and the productions of Persia and Central Asia are transported to Western 

 India and the ocean. 



During a residence at Sukhur, in the summer of 1839, I obtained some 

 information about the country adjacent, which I have the pleasure to lay 

 before the Asiatic Society, in the hope, as little has yet been published 

 about Upper Sind, that it will be acceptable. The Government were 

 jealous of their subjects mixing with the British, and narrowed the circle 

 of my inquiries. I did not visit the interior of the country, and the 

 information is defective on points I had wished to elucidate, but it will be 

 found, I believe, tolerably correct.
