142 Notes of a trip up the Sulween, [No. 3, 
yeen. Besides these, I collected two or three other species familiar to 
me, but not yet described or named, There was nothing absolutely 
new to me here; indeed, the whole expedition only yielded two new 
Orchidee ; the Bulbophyllum already mentioned as found in the 
Kyouk-taga ; and a Dendrobium with the flowers of D. aggregatum, 
but with short, erect cylindrical pseudo-bulbs. 
From Kanlado, after a day’s halt, we bent our steps southwards and 
homewards ; as my limited time would not allow me to go further, 
not even to visit the banks of the Salween which is within an easy 
day’s march of Kanlado on the east. About half way between 
Kanlado and Pahpoon, we turned aside from our path to visit a water- 
fall on the Yoonzalin river, I had often noticed on a map made by a 
local surveyor, professing to be a map of this district, high up on this 
river, the words, ‘“‘ Waterfall, 400 feet ;” but I could never find any 
one who had seen the waterfall. Now, a waterfall of 400 feet is a 
very unusual feature in the scenery of any country and a grand sight ; 
and I had long formed a secret resolution to find out this waterfall 
some day, and verify the statement as to its height. We were now at 
the very part of the country whence, if visited at all, it must be 
visited. I determined, therefore, not to return home without seeing 
it. Capt. Harrison, happily, was of the same mind; so, notwith- 
standing the assurance of the natives that the place was very difficult 
of access, and the mountain side very steep and slippery, we sent on a 
party in advance to find out a way forus and toclear the jungle sufficient- 
ly to make it passable. Arrived at the point of our road whence it was 
necessary to diverge from it to go in search of the waterfall, we struck 
off, and had certainly as hard a morning’s work before we reached the 
object of our search, as any man could desire: but we reached it about 
noon, and that was enough. 
On arrival we were at once gratified and disappointed : gratified at 
finding ourselves in a most romantic spot, and at the preparation 
made for us: disappointed at seeing no waterfall, although we were 
told that all that was to be seen lay before us. 
We had come prepared to rough it and sleep on the ground; we 
were, therefore, agreeably surprised at finding a very capacious and 
exceedingly pretty structure built, and all ready for us. The site was 
selected with great taste, for on stepping up out of the thick jungle
