Section 7. Account of commercial ports, and factories, on 



the coast. 



This section merely contains the names of some obscure 

 places, in the Nellore district, where trading used to be 

 carried on by vessels ; with the nature of imports, and ex- 

 ports, and mention of places to which export were made. 



Section 8. Division of the Carnatic. 



A list merely of the names of 112 places under the title of 

 " pergunnahs," into which the Carnatic, in revenue matters 

 was divided. 



Section 9 . Statements of Revenue. 



This is merely a statistical memorandum of the revenues 

 of the Arcot-Soubah, or kingdom under the Mahomedans. 



Section 30. Duties of various offices. 



A mention of nine official situations of revenue, or police, 

 under the Arcot-government, when mahomedan : with a 

 definition of the duties' attached to each office. 



Section -11. "General history of the Carnatic by the 

 Muzamdar" (or accountant of the country.) 



This title is copied from the hand writing of Colonel 

 Mackenzie. It has a reference to some very early matters ; 

 with a legendary story to account for the existence of the Dan- 

 dacaranya, or great Peninsular wilderness. A transit is 

 made to Rama, and his son Lava. Some matters, lower down, 

 are adverted to ; the authenticity of which may be estimated 

 by Salhahana being made to follow the Chola rajas. The 

 Bayer and Yddava, dynasties are mentioned, as also the 

 transition of power to the Mahomedans, and finally to 

 the English.
