In connexion with fire-arms, it is usual to advert to gunpowder, but as I have no new evidence to adduce on the subject, I must refer the curious reader to Wilson's *Essay* "On the Art of War as known to the Hindus", Sir H. Elliot's "Note on the early use of gunpowder in India", in his *Index to the Historians of Muhammadan India*, and Lassen's *Indische Alterthumskunde*, II. p. 641, *et seq.*
