mired before a fell nutlet of this sonny, on Sator!ay
sight, by Colossi Bybee, ILP., *pea "Tralta of ladle&
Character." The avowed object of film lecturer we. to pre-
sser the favourable bile of the Hisdeo character in contrast
Is the unthawed dasher in which it hes of late brooms the
habit to represent it, at the ran time that be teadily ad-
, twitted the exiatence of much evil among the natives, and
rbrmeven Ito preponderant* over good. The "Undo;
ee, was repreenned as neither aagal nor deal,
but a matt, sliming the faults and virtues of
uninisel humanity. His mach-talkel d imenuta-
oy was dispeoved in a clear and aucciset sketch
the modem chews and modifications which
the haw 'skins mind has uadergone, tracing it from
the primeval slap d e'emental worship and tuidevaloptl
cane, as displayed fn the Rig Veda, down to modern times,
especially adverting to the universal spread of Boddeioni
is ladle at one period, end its emaciate extinction at piss sat
throughout the peninsula. The intense devotional 'esti-
mint, the fidelity, the charity, and even the chivalry of the
satins of India, were severally Mounted by a series of
appropeat• anecdotes, some historical, and others derived
Teem the lecturer's own experience. The lecturer con-
cluded by quoting • forcible opinion of Sir John Malcolm,
deprecating over-seel in changing the condition of the
inhabitants of India by crude and premature reforms before
we have obtaised a fall and thorough insight Into its MOS
nature.
