Account of the Great Waterfalls of Rewah. 8$ 
rock to the surface of the water in the pool ; and I have no 
doubt if it had been measured from the highest point, there 
would have been a difference of at least SO feet. 
We descended into the glen by a narrow and precipitous foot- 
path, much impeded by jungle and rocks : here we had a much 
better view of the Fall than from above, and were more able to 
judge of its true depth. The bason is full of alligators, which 
we had amply proved, seeing one basking on a rock in the sun, 
and finding the bleached skeleton of another’s head underneath 
a large stone. A dead carcase was also lying at the bottom, but 
how it got there, is impossible to tell, unless carried down by a 
tiger ; and from there being no deer, or other kind of prey, in 
this part of the country, we inclined to believe there can be no 
tigers near. After remaining for an hour to rest us after the 
fatigue, we began the ascent by the opposite side from that 
which we had come down, which was the left, and found it more 
steep and difficult of access. Having climbed for an hour and a 
quarter over rocks and stones, we at length reached the top, just 
under the south bastion of the Fort. 
As I have now spoken at sufficient length of the “ Fall of 
“ Kaioutee,” I shall proceed to relate our journey to the next, 
known by the name of the u Fall of the Behur.” 
We marched again on the morning of the 11th, crossed the 
Mahanuddy by a difficult and rocky passage, passed through 
the village of Bajgurh, and, after fording the Behur river, en- 
camped to the north of “ Chechai” 3 coss or 11 miles distant 
from Kaioutee, (for the coss of this country are generally be- 
tween 3 and 4 miles in extent). This is a pretty little village, 
with a neat small fort, the residence of the Zumeendar. After 
breakfast, we walked along the banks of the stream, which is 
here about 60 yards broad, down to the Fall, t of an hour’s 
walk from camp. 
This, like the former, comes upon you on a sudden, and the 
spectator is immediately struck with the difference of heights, 
whicji is here 93 feet greater than the other, the water here fall- 
ing the tremendous depth of 363 feet, which was measured twice 
by the same officer as before. The quantity of water is also 
greater, and falls more in a mass, which gives it a very superb 
appearance. The bason which receives the Fall is larger, the
