Sixty Thousand Persons Drowned in
India.
Later advices reveal the full extent
of the disaster inflicted by the terrible
cyclone in India. A Calcutta letter to
the London Times, just received says :
I see the news of 12,000 persons hav-:
ing been lost in the cyclone was receiv
ed with incredulity in England. The
estimate was wide of the truth, but on
ly because it vastly underrated the ca
lamity. As every one who knows this
country will readily conceive, there is
no possibility of ascertaining precisely
tlie loss of life, because hundreds might
be swept away and leave no trace be
hind. But we are not without data
for arriving at a conclusion, and it has
now been calculated that there cannot
be fewer thail 60,000 persons drowned
or otherwise killed by that fearful storm.
In the Island of Saugor alone, before
the cyclone, there were 8200 persons
There are now about 1,200; nor have
any left it to ga elsewhere. Seven
'thousand were carried clean 'away by
the storm wave. All up the river the
population has been swept off, if not in
the same proportion, yet in very large,
numbers. As we all anticipated, dis-
Rage is raging everywhere-.--cholera,
lever, and sinalt-pox. The epidemic
fever, which I have mentioned in pre-
Timis letters this year, is depopulating
whole districts. A magistrate told me
the other day that he had been riding
through a village in which there was
'hardly a grown-up person left. They
had died without hope of assistance,
without medicine, without food—for
the corpses are rotting on the ground in

the general misery by turning the ryets

;hind-hand with their rents. There is
gooney enough here to give relief—such
imputes:can be got for money. But
lhuman means seem quite powerless to
stop the awful diseases that are walking'
through the land, carrying thousands'
before them. The native feels himself!

And there, and yet it is solely by Euro
peans
that good is being done. The
rich native will not help his country
men. God gave him his money, and
Grid intended him to keep it. That is
pretty much his mode of reasoning.— )
Sometimes the fever strikes him, and
then in abject terror he offers English
**vire a tee of five hundred rupees to
come and visit him. In a recent case
of that sort, the man—who was worth

Diptheria or Ntrid Sore Throat.
This very previlent disease has swept
from the parental lap many a sweet babe;
and to prevent further ravages among
the little innocent should be the earn
est object of tiithErs and mottles. A
friend has handed us the following recipe,
which we take ple4ure in giving to our
readers; A poults made of the yolk of
an egg and tine sal of a pastelike con
sistency, to be put tin the throat, and
kept on thirty minsies, unless sooner
dry. If the child it* very feeverish the
poultice should be repeated. A wash or
gargle should &so be prepared and used,
consisting of equal parts of fine salt and
alum!' mixed with vinegar. For a very
severe case, make a wash tar the throat
of blood root, golden seal and pulverized
bayberry. We are Credibly informed
that in every instance where these sim
ple remedies have bees applied, the suf

It will of coarse be oidervid that the ex
penditures of the Institusion during the
present year, greatly exceed those of any
previous year. This was unavoidable, un
der the great advance is the price of every
article used or consumek
11 V products of 0
the farm constitute a comp ' 017 small
portion of the consumption . Howe,
which necessarily leaves every # ing oho to
be bought at the present enormous prices.-.-
Besides this, the number of inmates is CM
stantly increasing, and the Directors minima
well see how the annual expenditures detail
be less under existing circumstances. It is
also proper to state that at least five his
dred dollars, charged in the present year, is
fairly chargeable to the year,.lBBB ; the eist,,
penditures having occurred is that year, bnt
unavoidably remained unsettled at the Net
account.

The Directors, however, herein increased
confidence that even under the presenthigh
prices, the actual cost to the public, is he
less than under the old system.
