A TVrrl flc Ilnrrlrnnn nt ('nti'ritfa nuiniln of
Italn Monsoon Drouth, Famine, und
Irmh the Hnnlt.
A correspondent of tbo London Times, wi lting
Irom Calcutta' under duto of Juue 11, gives the
following graphic description of a recent hurrl
runo: On Wednesday, the nth, tho city and surround
ing country were swept by a hurrienne for some
twenty hours. About sunset on the previous
duy tho high wind and rapid fall of the barome
ter, both in the Meteorological Reporter's OIHco
and at Haugor Inland, led to tlie belief that a
cyclone was pausing over Bengal along tho usual
track, which Is between north-northeast and
north-northwest. Only three weeks before, on
the Kith of May, a cyclone had thus passed,
doing little liurtto Calcutta, but so violent to the
eastward that tho Jessore district was wasted,
and the mail steamer Cheduba lias not since boon
heard of. About 4 A. M. on tho Hth it became
apparent that we were In for a hurricane of no
ordinary violence, and the trusts of wind in
creased in force up to between 10 and 11, when
they averaged W pounds to the square foot,
went up as high as ." pounds, or 114 miles
an hour. Few merchants and ollicials were
able to reach their ofllccs. while their native em
ployes could not attempt to do so. One of the
daily papers had two printers and the other
throe. The roof of tho Lock Hospital fell in,
killing two women and wounding nine others.
Trees were blown down, brick houses were in
jured, and huts were generally levelled with the
ground, wherever tliey were not sheltered. The
(shipping rode out with few casualties, but cargo
boats were swept away, and some lives in us
have been lost. Tito tide was unusually high.
Tho squalls continued till toward midnight, ac
companied by heavy rain. At least eight inches
fell, (ircat as the violence and injury have
been, thev are nothing to our experience of
181.4 and 1807. In the latter vcar I had to barri
cade with heavy tables the windows of a house
on the south bank of the Ilooghly; and even
then three were blown in. 1'ort Canniug suf
fered, but less than before. Uarrackporo seems
to have escaped cheaply. The only crop which
has Buffered is that of the plantain trees, and the
pau leaf, which is chewed with the betel nut.
The leaf is grown on elevated sites, under close
wicker-work roofs, to keep out the sun. In
the course of a si --mile drive aloicr the
Grand Trunk Hoad, at some dis
tance from Calcutta. I found these
erections in almost every case prostrate. Not a
plantain tree stood. Young and very exposed
trecb had yielded, and in some cases the road
was impassable until the axe has been applied.
As to tho poor people's huts, none had survived,
unless when under tho lee of thick trees. Deep
tanks which were empty the day before, were
filled to overflowing by the rain and drainage
from tho road, and the greater part of tho dis
trict near Serainpore, which was inundated last
year, was under water. As the storm came dur
ing the day, tho people were more cheerful than
in 187, and to-day the sun is out, converting
Bengal Into a vast vapor hath, so that the damage
is being rapidly repaired with bamboos and mud.
Mr. lilauford, the Meteorological Reporter, is of
opinion that tho course of the cyclone was from
about the mouth of the lliii riuiiOttali, past Cal
cutta, at a distance of some miles to the north
east, and therefore in a northwesterly direction.
Tho trains on the East Indian Railway were de
layed in departure, from the impossibility of
communicating by river with Calcutta. We have
yet to hear from the Day of licngal.
There are few things so glorious as tho burst
of the rain monsoon on parched India the
clouds rolling up from the sea in precipitous
masses, attended by all the an illery of heaven;
and, as they pass on to strike against the Hima
layas, discharging their treasures as they go, all
nature wakes to life, aud becomes green as if
by magic.
"Even at tho price of a cyclone, tracts like those
of Central India and Itajpootana would gladly
welcome the Lord of ltain. Tho unexampled
heat there, as everywhere this year, has stricken
down many an English soldier and ollieial, and
many an Asiatic with apoplexy and cholera,
while famine has done no little evil in the native
States. It will bo some time till the deserts of
Western and the valleys of Central India get
relief. They arc almost at the point of rest where
the monsoons pouring up from the Indian
Ocean and the Hay of Bengal exhaust them
selves, and the rain-fall, which is from 70 to 100
inches on the coasts, and from 100 to 250 on the
hills, shrinks into an annual sprinkling of from
five to twenty inches. Writing just a week ago,
a correspondent in the heart of the feudatory
territory tells me that ''things are as quiet as
sunstroke and cholera will admit." People
make few signs. No doubt many have died
how many we shall, perhaps, never know.
Villages i.i some of the States have been
swept by cholera, and the Marwarees, straggling
along tile road ou their return to Itajpootana,
have left their dead on the highway. Many
corpses were thus seen a month ago, but now
there is a lull. Towns in llolkar's territory,
about Indore, have suffered much. Death has
been moving all through lJhopal also, and in the
Goona district tho ravages have been great, in
Bundelkund. where the famine has been sorest,
cholera lias been milder than in other places:
but there is a time of trial yet to be tided over
till the rain crops arc ready. We have been
saved so many horrors which seemed inevitable
in the famine that was so nigh, that we may well
bear this burden, and strive by supplying food
and work to meet the future. In tho atllictcd
districts charity has been great aud general:
had it not been so, Kajpootaua, Gwalior, and
Bundelkund would have been depopulated.
JSueu is the opinion of the highest authorities on
the spot.
AllcKed IOnh of Ten Thousand Lives.
Another account says:
The second of the two hurricanes which
visited Bengal on the 10th of May and tho lUh
of June was very destructive, but far inferior
in violence to the terrible storms of 18H4 and
1807. The plantains and the pau leaf, which Is
chewed with tho betel nut, were ruined, but the
ther crops escaped. At Calcutta business was
entirely suspended. Few merchants were able
to reach their places of business, and those who
did found themselves minus their native eici
plores. The roof of tho Lock Hospital fell in, killing
two women and wounding nine others. Trees
were blown down, brick houses were injured,
and huts were generally leveled with tho ground
wherever they were not sheltered. The ship-
Eing rode out with few casualties, but cargo
oats were swept away, and some lives must
have been lost. In the country the huts of tho
peasantry wcro blown down in all directions,
except where they were protected by thick
trees. No news of shipping disasters had come
In when the mail left. One paper asserts that
ten thousand lives were lost by tho first cyclone
that of May ltt.

Kot-hf. tiifSyktf.m. Tt is a sad thin to pass throaeb
lifoonly half alive. Yet there are thousnnils whoso ha
bitual condition isono of languor and diibiliiy. They coin
plain of nospoeillc disoano; they snlTer ni positive pain ;
lint they havo no relish for anything which afford mental
or sensuous pleasure to their moio robust ami energetio
fellow-beings.
In nine cat-en out of ton this ststo of lassitnilR and torpor
arises from a morbid stomnch. Indigestion dostrors tho
onerpy of both mind and body. When the waste of nalure
is not supplied by u due and regular assimilation of the
food, every organ is starved, every fund ion interrupted.
Now, what does common sense siiKtreit under these cir
cumstances Of depression? The nilrin nee'ts riviHinij mtd
Hreniihetiinii: not merely for an hour or two, to sink after,
ward into a more pitiable condition than ever (as It assu
redly would do if an ordinary alcoholic stimulant were re
sorted to), but radically and permanently.
How is this desirable object to be accomplished? The
answer to this (iiest ion, founded on the unvarying experi
ences of a quarter of a century, is easily Kiven. Infuse now
vior into tho dixes'ivc owns by a course of Hoktf.t mil's
SloMAc lI BlTlEIis. Do not waste time ill administering
temporary remedies, but f"ftv the niytrm up by recuperating
the fountain-head of physical strength and energy, the
great oigan upon which all tho other organs depend for
their nurture and support.
By the time that a dozen dosee of tho great vegetable
tonic and invigorant have been taken, the feeblo frame of
the dyspeptic will begin to feel its benign intluence. Ap
petite will be created, and with appetite the capacity to
digest what it craves. Porsevere until tho cure is com
pleteuntil healthful blood, lit to bo tho material of flesh
and musclo, bone and ncrvo and brain, llows through
tho channels of circulation, instead of the watery pabu
lum with which they have heretofore been imperfectly
nourished.
