Duchesnia
indica, common in wet places; a Bamboo, paniculis (culmis) nutantibus
aphyllis, amplus. Pandanus; Curculigo pumila, floribus sub-solitarius
ante folia, 6 vel. 4 partitis; a Careya, Dillenia, arborea floribus
numerosis parvis luteis.

AEschynomena, Anthistiria arundinacea, Composita arborea, 40-50 pedalis.
Another species of Anthistiria, common on the margins of hills during the
march. Fir trees are reported to exist on _Lioe Peik_, which bears
South from Kioukseik. Volcanic hills reported to exist near the Endaw
Gyee, but no salt rock occurs. This mineral is said to be found three
days' march from Kioukseik on the Nam Theen. The revenue said to accrue
from the Serpentine mines, is probably highly exaggerated; and the supply
of the stone is said to be diminishing yearly. Casually found on the Nam
Toroon, a Sterculia arborea, florib-masculis clavato, infundibul.
coccineis, pubescentibus: a Sophora, floribus albidis pallidissima
ceruleo tinctis, of which the flowers alone were seen; Prenanthis
flosentis citrinis, a Polygala and Hypericum were likewise found.

_April 9th_.--Left Camein at 6, and reached Mogoung at 6 P.M. after a
march of at least twenty-five miles. The course at first was nearly due
east, until we reached the Nam Pong, but subsequently it became more
southerly. Camein bears from this about S.S.E. The country traversed
was the same, generally comparatively open, that is to say, grassy plains
with Rhamnea, Nauclea, Bombax, etc. For some distance the path extended
through shady woods. No villages, nor any signs of such were observed
_en route_. We passed many streamlets particularly during the latter
half of the march. Our original intention was to have come to Mogoung by
water, and with this view Bayfield told the man sent by the Myoowook to
procure two or three canoes. At 6 A.M. the Havildar came up to our hut,
and said that the headman of the village was disputing violently about
our taking the boats. Bayfield proceeded down to the river side, where
the Yua Thugee was very insolent, and he and his followers drew their
_dhaos_ (swords) on Bayfield, who slightly pushed the Thugee. It ended
in our going by land. We had previously heard of the rebellion at Ava:
the Thugee's behaviour evidently arose partly from this. I did not
observe the dispute, as I remained near the stockade.

Noticed a Lonicera in low places, and the Viola of Suddiya on the plains,
a Cardiopteris, Kempferia,
