THE FUGITIVE FEMALES IN CALCUTTA.

A lady in Calcutta writes to a friend :
" CALCUTTA. Dam SC
" There is a committee of lathes appointed to re-
ceive and look after distressed lathes and women
from the MofassiL We have had ten large houses
Erldfor them, and they have been constantly
Ve have had to supply them with clothing
sad every requisite for comfort. Many mine to
Oaken& with only the rags they have on, and
Mime to sesn's clothes lent them on their way down.
dome of these ladies are in the moat deplorable state
of health. with constitutions ruined for life from
their sofirriage. Wo have had lirge supplies of
beautiful new clothing sent out from England for
distribution smog them. The ladies and women
from l.ucknow are daily expected, and we have pre-
paredeverything for their comfortable reception.
stories circulating about the garrison during
their long and terrible trial are most extraordinary.
The sense of danger was so intense that after a time
they became callous to death. For 12n days they
were eonstantly under fire, and only foor days puled
without the loss of some of their number. Manama
half the garrison were killed. The ladies now write
down from Allahabad that the reaction and quiet of
their present condition is almost as painful as the
siege itself. The torpor of death OOP= to hare crept
Wei them, and all are giving way under it. Young
bridle of a few weeks are grown into aged, IMP
haired widow., not to be recognised by those who
caw them a few months ago. It seems that some
ef the men cxen, who went through the siege with-
out suffering materially in health, have linos sunk
from the reaction."
