In passing through this part of Egypt I was much struck with the ingenuity of the Egyptians in applying (if they do not invent) machinery to the purposes of cultivation and other useful arts. They appear to me in this and in some other respects to be far more advanced than the people of India. We put up at Cairo in the house of our Suez friend, Suliman.

I was much disappointed with Grand Cairo. I had heard of it as one of the finest cities in the world, but I found it was by no means superior to the better class of cities in India. The French bazaar is the best part of it and the most thickly populated. The rest of the city is old, dirty, and in disorder.-HASSAN.
