under false circumstances, is no secret there. The Armenian
Manufacturers there dye also the Turkey
red in Cotton, in high perfection & the Tartars
prepare the Shagreen of various colours, whi
the preparation of which likewise has been little
known in Europe. — A surprizing variety of
Melons, Cucumber &c may be collected there.
Mr. Habliz, who has the care of the Imperial
Garden there & is Correspondent of the Academy,
a very ingenious young man, will be of use
there & is so much my friend, that he will
be glad of serving you.
Going up the Volga, there are remarkable
Ruins of Tartarian buildings, the remains
of the residence of that people, which once
overruled Russia, just over against the fortress
of Yenataefka, at the place called Dshighit
where a Salpeter work (Selitrennoi Sawod)
was once established.
A Little past Jshernojarsk follows a place
called Solotnikowa, where a change of horses is
established; thereabouts you may enquire for
the field of battle, where Pughatshef was
defeated the last time.
