a town of Hindustan, and the principal place of a native state of the same name, situate in the province of Rajpootana. The houses are built of brick, and those of a superior class are faced with squared stone; but the streets are narrow and filthy. The territory of Kerowlee has an area of 1878 square miles, with a population of 187,000. Within the last few years, the distracted condition of this principality induced the reigning prince to solicit the interference of the British government, and a compliance with his request led to the restoration of tranquillity. Upon the death, in 1852, of the Rajah Nursing Pal, his adopted son, Bhurt Pal, was recognised by the British government as his successor, and arrangements were made for the administration of the state during the minority of the young prince. The total revenue of the country is stated at Kerry.
L50,690, but so much has been alienated as to leave little more than two-thirds of that sum for the use of the state. The town of Kerowlee is in Lat. 26° 28', Long. 77° 10'.
