Horrible Catastrophe. -Uuder the inn
preston of one Of the most horrid sights,
aud in the agitation which it has naturally
occasioned, write TO give you a hurried
statement Of the scene Of which have
been Sweye witness. From the Saiet Of
the Pnrbee unfortunately happening al the
hour Of three and half English time Of this
day, A. nj. crowds Of infatuated pilgrims
forced their way III overwhelming masses
to the sacred bathing place.
As most people who have been up the
country have visited Hurdwar. and seen
the steps leading down to Hurke Pyree, ]
need not give description Of them, fur
ther than stating they are very steep in
descent, and about ten feet broad, with
high walls on one side. AT the summit
from the town Of Hurdwar side, there is
an ascent by broad flight Of steps, at the
tops Of these the guards were stationed to
prevent the crowds pressing indiscrimi.

assess, and Byragoes, who had the quar-
rel in 1876, We'd with each other al the
top for presidency Of bathing, and made
sudden rush, ia which the unfortnne Sc
poys, and all the multitude who were de-
scending, were carried down with such
violence that they got jammed together
within three steps of the water, where an
angle Of the old sacred Pyree Muih, and
an angle of the Munder of the Mahadce
closes the passage to about Z feet, and
opens with swell behind. Here the
unfortunate beings were crammed together
with snch violence, that motion or use Of
limbs was unavaiIing, the weak, the strong,
in vain made efforts, ii was all the same,
the more exertion made the more intwiDed
their limbs became. A, half past I, A. M
I was witness to the horrid scene; the
cries, the means of the unfortunate multi
tude were heart-rending in the extreme /;
strength, force or any continuance OF effort
to assist them was in vain. made seve-
raj attempts to eytricate those who were
in the foremost file below, but their boz
dies, legs and arms were SO intwined, that
it was impossible to extract one of them,

Poiarce Brahmin, A pleasing part Of this
recital throws ray Of a brighter hue on
the Sepoys OF the 5,h and 9th, and the
Gorkeeah corps, who though people Of
high cast and prepossessions were stript
and actually employed in Extracting
the dead; this was labor Of no small
exertion, as they had to clear away the
dead from near go feet. in an angle of Sc
or go degrees, before they could extract
the living who we're below. Col. Patton
and several officers by their exertions and
cheering the Sepoys, induced them to
clear the mass Of dead away. At 10, A..
M. the living who we're below, were ex-
tracted in most horrid state; their
limbs blistered, infIamed, and in state
OF pntrefaction the number alive did not
exceed 80 beings, and an extraordinary
instance must record, which was young
woman who was under the whole mass 10
the centre and alive, who had merely her
| head and arms free.

Of the death d those on the upper steps,
