BUDDELL, OPPOSITE BILCATE, IN THE MOUNTAINS OF SERINAGUR.

The village of Buddell is about fourteen miles from Dusa, and separated from it by a very lofty mountainous ridge. It is pleasantly situated on a delicious stream of liquid crystal, called the Ramgunga. On the opposite side of that river is the large village of Bilcate. It being the time of harvest when this view was taken, and the corn gathered in, the mode of treading out the grain by the feet of cattle, is represented in the foreground, and also the collecting and winnowing it; all which operations are performed in the open air.
