The Giljee tribe, one the most celebrated of the Afghans, although reduced to subjection by the Dooranees, have not yetforgotten their ancient rivalry. Their insurrections under the Kabul Monarchs, had been both bold and frequent; nor after the restoration of Shah Shoojau, when many of their forts had been destroyed and Chiefs captured by a force under Major Outram on his return from Kabul at the end of 1839, as a punishment for their hostility to the army on its advance, did they cease disturbing the tranquillity of the country. In a tribe where every man capable of bearing arms is a soldier, for a disaffected Chieftain to collect followers is an easy task. In May 1840, Captain Anderson, 59th Bengal Infantry, defeated a large body of them in rebellion against the Shah. In November, the following year, their continued revolts rendered it necessary to detach more troops under Colonel Wymer to reduce them, and after experiencing another reverse at his hands, the fort of Kelat-e-Giljee (eighty miles from Candahar, and one hundred and fifty from Guznee) in the heart of their country, was ordered to rebuilt and garrisoned. Kakur Khan (whose portrait is here given) an influential Chief of the Shaboodeen Khail, at this time surrendered himself to Major Leech; but others of the tribe, awed yet not subdued, attacked and overpowered, between Guznee and Kabul, a small party under Captain Woodburn, 44th Bengal. Infantry. During the late insurrection, the garrison of the fort under Captain Craigie, 20th Bengal Infantry, was completely isolated; and, after the fall of Guznee, and imprisonment and destruction of its defenders, fears were entertained for its safety. The desperate assault of the Giljees on the 20th May 1842 was however, so gallantly met, that they were repulsed with great slaughter. A few days afterwards, a force from Candahar relieved them, and the place was evacuated and destroyed. The dress of the Giljee female, as here shown, is that of the poorer class. It is remarkable for the peculiar manner in which their hair is made to act a partial veil, by being brought over the forehead, plastered with gum, and then wound in a flat circle round a piece of green grass. The Huzzareh are inhabitants of villages near Guznee. Their dress of “urruk,” (a kind of coarsev cloth,) over which, in winter, they wear a sheep's skin pelisse, and the close fitting skull cap, distinguish their costume from that of their Giljee neighbours. One of the group has a charm written by some holy person as a preventive against sickness, folded up in a piece of silk, and sewn on the back of his garment. It has the policy of their Afghan rulers to reduce to insignificance the Huzzareh Chieftains, so that at the present period, notwithstanding their numbers, but few of this tribe have wealth: none power in the state.
