SKETCHES FROM FUBTHER INDIA.
Ti unstated frm the German of lir.Jagor, "Reises:
kizaen tu$ UinterinOun "
The work or Mr. Jagor, which comprehends
his observations in those distant regions dunnr
a residence of live years, belongs t that class
of wntines that are less calculated lor the scien
tific public than lor general readers. His device
is: "He who brines much, will hava to jrive
vomethlng to everybody." This promise he has
completely fu) tilled.
Mr. Jagor left Hamburg in June, 1857, and
alter a passage of one hundred and live days,
was in sight of Singapore. During the whole
voyage, until his arrival before the Sunda
Islands, no land had been seen but .the small
deserted Islands, Martin Vas and Trinidad, lu
the South Atlantic Ocean. But just at that
point there were, at the same time, thirteen
ships in sight, and this was no huzurrl, as Mr.
Jagor justly bserves: ,-Mr, Maury, the cele
brated surveyor ot the sea, has shown with great
clearness that the iocean, which, apparently
without any path, is lu reality crossed by large
commercial roads, upon which all ships move
like caravans in the desert. And here we found
ourselves at such a crossing point. Ships which
had come round Cape Horn or the Cape of Good
Hope, others which had sailed troui Europe tor
tha eastern or western shores of the Pacific
Ocean, met here; with favorable wind they
quickly pass each other, but in calm weather
there is a large gathering of ships at such main
points."
In Singapore, at the time of his arrival, there
lay 146 ships at anchor, and the free Frets gives
the following statements concerning the number
of ships arrived from dilterent countries : "Of
merchantmen, those which sail under German
colors (thirty-elKht) are to the English ships as
ne to two; and to those which sail under the
flag of other nations, as two to one. Eitrht years
ago there were at about the same time only
sixty ships at anchor, and the proportion ol
Herman ships to English was as one to eleven,
and that of German to that of other nations as
one to eight. Thus iar, tree trade and German
Industry have been successful, and we would
not at all be astonished if, in a few years more,
the proportion should be still more in their
lavor."
Concerning the geological structure of the
island of Singapore, air. Jagor gives us the fol
lowing data: "lhe island, like the continent
adjoining it, consists ot granite aud strata of
older stone; the latter occupy the larger extent;
tonsils have never been found there, und we are
without means to fix its relative a;;e. The stouts
kave the character of the oldest formations to
which they belong i. e., sandstone, clay, and
loam."
Among the inconvonlcuces of his residence
there, our traveller mentions the extreme ditti
culty of procuring any servant. All found
working loathsome, so that one after the other
ran away from him. This inconveuieuce was
particularly felt when our traveller was invite!
to dinner; for every guest briuga his servant
with him on these occasions.
"Behind the chair of each guest there stands
"his servant, usually a Chinese, with u long tail,
or a kling, with large turban. Each servant is
exclusively occupied with the care of his own
muster, and endeavors to provide him with the
choicest pieces. Oftentimes they are seen fight
ing with each other to obtain them, while they
still maintain their dignified attitude, as it b
liooves them, in the presence of great lords for
such are all Europeans considered. Europeaui
generally lead a princely nianuer ot life, in
which, however, the best is wanting lemale
company. In European society women are not
very numerous; they mostly live in 9uch an ev
pensive style that few men are rich enough to
maintain their wives in such a luxurious manner
as belongs to the generally adopted fa-ihlou.
' Besides, they support less easily than
men the consequence . of the tropical
climate; they soon become apathetic and
sickly, and in order to restore their health
are obliged to return to Europe."' But women
are not only wanting in the Europeau houses of
Kingapcre. but in general a t;ct which is ac
counted lor by the population being moitly
composed of Chinese, and Chinese women very
rarely emigrate to other countries. According
to stutibticul data, the proportion ot women to
men is as one to eight, and in the streets the
lormer are entirely missing. Never dons a wife
walk with her husband or hold him by the arm.
This would interfere with lhe dignity of man,
or make him ridiculous. The Malayan families
walk usually one beliud the other: tim the
children, alter these tie mother, aud then the
lather and other adults. Men alo walk one
bellied the other, first the most distinguished,
after these the others, exactly according to their
respective rank.
When we talk of Singapore, tigers must not
be omitted. We know by the statement of
Governor Crawford that, at the time of his ad
ministration, iu the year 1824, there were not
jet any tigers on the island, and that they
came over from the continent by swimming
across the Straits. Their nurabpr is inerpasunf
every year, notwithstanding all efforts to
destroy them. But it is to be observed, as a
remarkable fact, that the European in Singa
pore do not fear the tisrer at all. "'What a wild
flight would take place among the promcua ler
in Europe, if on a sudden, in a EOological garden,
the tigers should break open their caeva !
How few would venture into the garden before
the wild beasts were causht acain ! But here.
ladies with their children, without any escort,
and quite fearlessly, drive in small open pony
carriages before dawn and after sunset in the
evening, while ou the other side of the road are
dense woods in which ticers are kuown to
prowl. Ho deep-rooted is the conviction of the
cowardice aud the fear of man which are in
born lu these animals I Recently arrived
strangers are the only ones who, when return
fug from their Brbt excursion, though not quite
sure, have scarcely the least doubt of having
perceived a pair of laiere glowing eyes iu the
thicket, probably belonging to tigers; but they
nre regularly laughed at, because everybody is
convinced that it wai but a phantom of their
own imagination. The prey if the tieer are the
Chinese, who work in the fields, aud whom lie
can approach without being perceived." , I
Malacca, the Malayan VenlceJ is
a decayed city, the little rivslet Malacca and
the sea currents have filled the roadstead with
Mich a mass of mud that larze uhlpg are obliged
to lay at anchor two miles off. -F'At
the small inlands where, in 1511, the fleet
a.f Albuquerque anchored in fivt to six fathoms
water, at prtbent only coastinj vesBela can ho.
There were only two of these there when Mr.
Jupor visited them. What a striking contrast
with Moyapnre! Three hundred year auo
JHaliuca was the njoet iirpwlaut emporium -in
fhcpc reicionn, the capital of a powerful king
dom, and even In the times of the Dutch
monoply it was still a very considerable place.
In the neighborhood ol Malacca there is the
tettlenient of a French millenary among the
so-called "woodmen" i. f.. the natives of the
peninsnla. who are called by their national
names, Mintras and Jakoons.
The latter are said to live upon trees, and to
kave scales like fish. Both thee assertion are
to a certain extent true. The Jakooua still
like to build their huts on trees, twenty to thirty
feet above the ground, and as to the scales, it ia
a fact that many ot them are affected with
ichthyosis, I observed thla cntaneoim disease in
several of the Jakoon. but most of the latter,
and almost all Mint? a?, were as cleanly as the
Malays, and more cleanly than most of the
Europeans.
Thi national wpanon of the Malays Is the
blow-pipe, seven lect long and three-fourths of
an Inch in diameter, out ot which they shoot
poisoned arrows. The accuracy with which
they bit the aim is really astonishing.
According to the opihion of the French Mis
aiotary, Mr. Bory, the number of the natives on
the Peninsula amounts to 8000 or 10,000, among
whom there are at the utmost 2iK)0 M intra.
They are partisans of the theory of Darwin; lor
they maintain that they are descended from
two white monkejs, of whose descendants those
who emigrated to the plains became men, while
those who did not leave the mountains re
mained monkeys.
What pepper, nutmegs, and gamboge are to
Singapore, such is the gutta perch a or india
rubber to the inhaoitants of Mulncca. Our
traveller gives the following interesting account
of pntia percha: "The first specimens of gutta
pcrcha were brought In 1843 irom Singapore to
Ixmdon, by Dr. "d' Almeida; but the honor of
having introduced it in Europe ia generally
attributed to lr. Montgomery, who received a
premium for it, althouga his importation took
place later. In an ordinary temperature it is
sottand tough, like leather; while in a tempe
rature ot 60 deg. It. it can easily be kneaded,
and becomes insoluble in water, alcohol, acids,
alkalies, etc.; it therefore rapidly found a large
and frequent employment iu particular In tele
graphy, as possessing, of ail known substances,
the greatest aptitude lor insulation. Unfortu
nately, when exposed to the air, it is trans
formed into a very brittle mass, which becomes
lull ol fissures, admits the wattr, aud loses its
power of insulating.
"In Singapore this substance was known
under the name gitta tahan, and was used ior
the manufacture of whips, peals, and other
utensils; by mistake it received iu Europe the
name gutta percba, hy which name, originally,
a similar but inlerior product iw called iu Sin
gapore. The Taban tree? honanlra gutta), in
consequence of the ever-increasing demand tor
this substance, were very soon destroyed in the
woods of Singapore, a?,'ln order to obtain the
gap, they cut down the wWlV tree. After Sinja
pore, the forests of the peninsula ol Malacca,
and those of the neighboring islauds of Sumatra
and Borneo, were cut down also, llie destruc
tion of gutta trees must be very coniderable a
large tree, at the utmost, furnishing but ton to
til teen pounds of sap; notwithstanding this,
there Is only a transitory scarcity, but not a
total destruction is to be teared. as according
to Mr. Gafl'rou a resident of Borneo th tree,
which it is not worthwhile to cut down before
its thirtieth year, bears seed troui its titteenth
year."
Concerning the great enemies w hich, 'u tropi
cal climates,' attack mini, Mr. Jaor tries to
comfort us by stating that the worst of them,
ever, rages only in the unwholesome districts,
'which ar known to and avoided by the inhabi
tants. The other enemies are the insects, ser
pents, and wild beasts, with regard to which he
observes: ''The great fear of serpents aud wild
beasts is without foundation. All animals fear
man; besides, most ot toe serpents are not
venemous, nfld hide themselves away when they
hear the steps of man. How difficult it is to
meet with them, every oue eas'ily discovers
when he wants to obtain specimens of them.
I paid tor every serpent one toilling Enalish
money, and, nevertheless, within tour years I
could collect only a luw hundred." As to the
third enemy, the insects, our author shows us
how to despise them; still more, he declares
that in Southern Europe this nuisance is worse
than in India, "fleas do not exM; there lice
infest only the natives, but never the Europeau;
this is the nioie aurpriwiug, lor example, ou the
Philippine Islands, tbe natives bulnar thorn
much more cleanlv than the Spaniards. Thu
former bathe every day and take care of their
line hair, while the latter in both respects are
careless: however, the Tsguls, especially the
women, have always vermin in their hair, the
Spaniards never.
'Acainst all troublesome insects, and e.-pc
ciallv aeainst the terrible mosquito, the insect
nowiler is a perfect tuarantee. A mixture of
one part insect powder (Pyrtlhum roseum), two
parts of alcohol, aua two parts or water, pro
tec t the body and all the liiut); against any
kind of attack whatsoever. On the rivers ol
Siam, particularly ill-famed on account of cuni-

the beard and the hands protects the huutpr ou
his excursions by waier against the many flies,
tor at least twelve hours during the greatest

numerous nuts in the tropical zones is very
remarkable.

hnnrdsixincb.es wide ran around the

ant moved along in opposite directions, so thai
the w hole suiluce oi tue Doara appcaicu u.ntu.
A small stripe strewed with this powder was
sufficient to kill or drive them all away." Jir.
Jagor gives us some interesting details ou au
imWirtant noint of Eastern etiquette, concern
ing tne use of parasols: "The parasols in the
MalnvHn countries udicate the rant ot tne pos
sessor. as iu Euroue the epaulettes indicate the
mnW of an officer. In Java twenty-seveu dif
ferent decrees of rauk are indicated by the
narasols. the colors of which are fixed and pre
crihed bv the Goveruoi -General in Council
with the same precision as the different uni
forms in Eurot.e. The most ditiU2uished are
white, ones, with crilt edsie. Then come green,
blue, brown, of different shades. Only the first
six ones haw uilt edges; all the others yellow
Tn Kiiim nlso the uarasol plays an important
part. The puraol of many stories, one above
the other, is the distiuguMiing attribute ot the
Kinir. find on the rreat State seal it is repre
sented on either fide ot the p.uamidul crown."
Wp may here add that the many projecting
roofs ol the pugodas in Further India represent
also parasols in an emoiewauc. iubuu'-i.
Mr. .lae or. as an illustration ot the military
system, gives the following description of a visit
to a o-called military tncanipment: "T he
barracks ot some ol the reeiments were already
finished and inhabited. Thev were very spa
cious. clean, and airv. On either side there
were laree verandahs which ran along the
whole extent. In the sleeping halls 1 was
strii' k bv the large, almost suuare, beds. The
soldier does not bleep alone, but every one lias
a lemale Companion with him. I saw this in
tcrcftiuir portion ot the armv, but ouiyat u
distance, as bv 7 o'clock in the worniuir, when
toe officers pas the inspection, they areoblitred
to leave the sleei ina rooms, aud withdraw into
a separate camp. The native women, who live
with the soldiers like laitliful wives, are not
considered by the officers au element of disor
der, but rather a ssetul complement. During
the march thev are said to lend important ser
vices without causing any additional trouble or
PTTiensp. living as they do on the copious pro
visions of the soldiers. Tlicy clean their weapons
and uniforms, take care ot their washing, do
the cooking, and keep them in good humor,
Being themselves ever cneenui."
How ranldlv in the r.ast pjoule can make a
fortune, is proved by the contract which u Gcr'
man physician mane, uv uruer oi a company oi
Bhurohulders. with the Government ot slum, for
the planting of cocoa trees to the exteut of
inn nnn "The nroiect seemed well planned: be
tween the cocoa trees which scarcely yield any
nrndiK-A hefnrn thp ninth year, cocoa trues.
which yield after the fourth year, and peanut
trees, w men vieiu iwiit ik;i vuc uni icar,
were to be planted. The expectation that this
plantation, once fully developed, would yield a
yearly prolit of 1 per tree, or enj nuu.uuu
year, however ruatrgpratod It may appear to
thoe who are familiar only wV.h the products of
European agriculture, perfect! v agrees with the
daU ,1 myself collected in Malacca. In tMurn
the cost of the planting amounts to one dollar
per tree, while in Malacca it is only hall a
dollar, so tliai after eight or nine years a snecn
lator would earn here 100 per eint., while in
Malacca he would gain 200 per cent, on his
capital I"
