Many far-fetched projects on foot how to draw all tie traffic of Persia and the inland parts of the East Indies up the river Hydaspes [Jhylum] into the Oxus that falls into the Caspian Sea, whence the commodities are to be brought up the Volga to a strait of land not above forty miles and so into the Dwina that comes to St. Nicholas or Archangel, the ordinary stations of our shipping in those parts. Doubts that these are but discourses in the air and yet Sir Henry Neville has had, by the King's commands, much conference with the council upon them. [Copy. East Indies, Vol. I., No. 39.
