THE NATIONAL REGISTER.

I hfa. d iqle express her entire ignorance of the father of her
child. The thermometer is now, at one P. M. between 74
and 75, but this is cooler by 15 degrees than I have lately
expetienced it. The elevation of Hajjee is about 4000
feet.o

A letter inserted in the Calcutta papers, gives the follow-
ing account of a curious practice witnessed by an Officer,
while on duty in the late war against the Napatilese:—" At
the village of Danguikunar we observed a curious practice,
%v 1 ich 1 must describe. Small streams of water, conveyed cool
from then native springs to the huts of the inhabitants, en-
tered wooden spouts, under which the women having lulled
their children to sleep, and %%gapped their bodies and limbs
in blankets, placed their little heads, on the tops of which
the water t. om the spouts descended. This custom, they
tell rrn., i universal, and selves to make them strong and
keep them cool. I saw two children under this operation,
and they slept calm and composedly. The plan of first
causing them to sleep loy violent rocking on the knees,
seemed rather calculated to shake the child to pieces than to
induce slumber; yet the desired al:et was instantaneous,
for the child, though wondering and surprised by the sight
of strangers, SOOII lost its senses, slept, and was conveyed
to the spout. I know not if this practice be observed else-
whet e."
