lx Proceedings of the Asiatic Society . [June, 1845. 



Review, page 156, (the Seikhs and their country.) " The word Kora-Chetre denotes 

 the field of Kora, the opponent of the Pandus." 



" With Thanesur nearly as the centre of the country around in a radius of twenty miles 

 is holy ground, and every ghat on the Saraswati, and nearly every tank within that area 

 is a Teeruth, a place of pilgrimage." 



The words " opponent and centre" are of course the trifling mistakes I allude to. 



Should there be a difficulty in lithographing the Teeruths in red letters it will not sig- 

 nify their being black with the rest. 



By this day's banghy dawk I have despatched a drawing of a Prathanea found at 

 Bhyn Jahsh some years back, which ought to be reduced to quarter its present size to 

 bear binding in the account of that Teeruth. 



I have to apologize for the execution of the map. Having had no time myself to devote 

 to it. I have been obliged to entrust it to a very indifferent Native draughtsman, but 

 still the best procurable, of its correctness notwithstanding I am well satisfied. 



The border of the map which is very incorrectly drawn being taken from the Pratha- 

 nea is suitably antique. 



I shall be happy to publish the map and account myself on ascertaining the probable 

 expense through your kind assistance, should the Society, from the fact of their not being 

 in English, consider them unadapted to the Journal or the Researches, or I shall be hap- 

 py to see them put into any other shape or language under the auspicies of the Society 

 by any one having the necessary leisure which I have not. 



Your's very truly, 

 (Signed,)

Read the following letter from the Archaeological Society : — 



The Secretary of the Asiatic Society, Calcutta. 

 Sir, — I am directed by the President and Council of the Society of Antiquaries of 

 London, to forward to you the following publications, for the use of the Asiatic Society , 

 Calcutta, viz. 

 Archaeologia, Vol. XXX. 

 Index to ditto, from Vol. XVI. to Vol. XXX. 

 Somerset Place, 29th Nov. 1844. Nich. Carlisle, 



Secretary. 



Read the following letter : — 



To H. Torrens, Esq. Vice President and Secretary, Asiatic Society. 



Sir, — I have the pleasure to forward the accompanying (7) seven volumes, being the 

 only works in Sanskrit in the Calcutta School Book Society's Depository. I regret that 

 our stores should furnish so meagre a supply, but works in the Sanskrit language are so 

 little called for that the Society have not considered it worth while to enlarge their selec- 

 tion at present. 



The amount of the books is 8 Rs. 9 an. ; which you can either pay now, or allow to 

 stand over to some future time, as most convenient to yourself.
