TABLES

OF

ROUTES AND DISTANCES

FROM

CALCUTTA

THROUGH THE

PRINCIPAL INLAND NAVIGATIONS.


THE first Column of Figures shews the intermediate Distances between the Stages: and the second Column the Distances of the several Stages from Calcutta, in Miles, Halves, and Quarters. The Letters R and L stand for Right and Left; and point out the Side of the River on which the Place is situated, in going from Calcutta.
WHEN the Route goes with the Current of the River, the Names are printed in italics; and when contrary to it, in roman Characters. The Names of Cities and Provincial Towns, are in the proper Capitals of each respective Character, but differing in Size. The Numbers I, II, III, &c. refer to the Maps in which the Routes are delineated.


WHEN the Passage lies through the Tidesway, the word Tide is inserted in the Margin.
