Dosaron. He is however mistaken: the Mahd-nadi is the diamond river, 
and his Dosaron. consists of the united streams of the Brahmai/, and the 
Cocila and is so called, because, they come from the Daséranvya also 
Dasdrita, or the ten forest-cantons. He might indeed have been led into 
this mistake very ‘easily, for the Brahmané and Cocila come from a dia- 
mond ‘country in Chuta-Nagpur, and in Major Rennux’s general map 
of India, these diamond mines towards the source of. these two rivers are: 
mentioned, and seem to extend over a large tract of ground. 
Berore we pass over to the other side of the Ganges, let us consider 
the rivers which fall into the Yamuné. The first river is the Goghas, to 
be pronounced Goghus, which passes close to Amara, or Amere near Ji aypur. 
It comes from the east, and is first noticed at a place called Ichrowle, as it 
passes to the north of it, at some distance. It winds then towards the S, W. 
and goes towards Amere and Jaypur, thence close to Bagroo, when it 
turns to the south and soon after to the S. E. The village of Ichrowle, being 
near the Goghus, is also called Goghus after it, or Cookus, as it is written 
in Arrowsmirn’s map: but it is considered by that famous geographer, as 
a different place from Ichrowle. This river is called Damiadee, by some of 
our writers of the seventeenth century, and is supposed by them to come 
from the mountainous district of Hindoon, and then to flow close to that 
city towards the west, and to fall into the Indus at Bacar, according to 
Captain R. Covert, who was there I believe in the year 1609 or 1610. 
Vhis is by no means a new idea, for this is the river without a name menti- 
oned by Protumy, who places, near its source, a town called Gagasmira, 
in which the names of the Goghas, and of the town of Amere are sufhi-
