Remarks. 



in which they are settled ; they 

 now speak Persian, or the lan- 

 guage of the districts in which 

 they are established. 



This district is sometimes subject 

 to Persia ; the Sheik's territo- 

 ries extend from the Caroon to 

 Hinduan, along the Persian 

 gulf. He once mustered 20,000 

 men — half his territories are in 

 Turkey. 



From this tribe was KerimKhan, 

 and the Zend dynasty. 



It is impossible to give any cor- 

 rect statement of these tribes ; 

 they inhabit the difficult moun- 

 tains on the western frontier, 

 and are always in an unsettled 

 state, and are the most lawless 

 tribes of the whole country. 

 Looristan formerly was go- 

 verned by its own chief, under 

 the name of Walli, and was 

 supposed to have 50,000 fami- 

 lies under him ; this I think 

 rather under than above the 

 truth.
