Finally, he remained and slept in the same hut, going away early the next morning. A few days later he surrendered himself to the Russians at Askabad, and afterward had an audience of the Emperor at St. Petersburg.

The villages were usually from one to two miles apart. The ground was everywhere well tilled, cornfields and great melon beds alternating. Another hour brought us to the banks of the Murgab, which I now saw for the first time.

It was my intention to travel to Central Thibet, but subsequent circum stances obliged me to alter my resolution, and directed my steps to a locality perhaps not less interesting. I started by the English steamer Principe di Carignano, ' reaching Batoum early on the morning of the 6th. I found that place wonderfully increased in size, even during the short time which had elapsed since the Rus sian occupation. The number of houses had almost trebled, and, after the fashion of Russia generally, the majority of these consisted of rum and vodka. Sheps. At least one barrel-organ was to be heard grinding in the streets, and, for the first time in the history of the town, public vehicles - the Russian pha'eton, or gig - plied for hire. The same afternoon, the Principe di Carignano continued her voyage, arriving at the mouth of the Rion river in two and a half hours.
