Who can tell what is going on up there ? I met a few days ago 

 two Mahomedans who had arrived from Leh in 19 days, just to 

 cross the Sutledge to Ram poor. One a Kashmiri told me, that Mr. 

 Schlagintweit was alive, and that he had gone on to Kashgar, with 

 Mahomud Amin, the native who accompanied him from Kulu. If 

 true, this is a curious move for him to make, and the Chinese would 

 certainly never allow him to return the way he went to Tarkund.
