The Travels of Marco Polo

M. Desgodins, a missionary in this part of Tibet, gives some curious details of the way in which the civilised traders still prey upon the simple hill‐folks of that quarter; exactly as the Hindu Banyas prey upon the simple forest‐tribes of India. He states one case in which the account for a pig had with interest run up to 2127 bushels of corn! (Ann. de la Prop. de la Foi, XXXVI. 320.)
