SALE OF CHILDREN IN NAL
ABAR.

Malabar children are generally q
cheap commodity at Anjingo. At
the end of the rainy season. when
there was no particular scarcity in
the interior country. purchased a
boy and girl. about 8 or 9 years of
age. as a present to a lady in Bonn.
bay, for less money than couple of
pigs in England. bought the young
couple, laid in two months provisions
of rice and salt fish for their voyage.
and gave each Of them four changes
of cotton garments, all for the sum
of twenty rupees, or fifty shiIlings.--
English humanity must not pass 4
censure on this transac ton: it was a
happy purchase for the children; they
were relieved from hunger and naked
ness, and sent to an amiable mistress,
who brought them up tenderly, and
on leaving India, provided for their
comforts; whereas, had | refused to
buy them, they would have assured
" have been sold to another. and pros
badly have experienced miserable
bondage with some native Portuguese
Christian, whom we do not reckon "a
mong the most merciful task.masters.
A circumstance of this kind happen
ed to myself; sitting one morning ia
my yerandah, a young fish woman
brought a basket of mullets for sale;
while the servant was dlspnsing of
them, she asked me to purchase a
fine boy, two years of age, then in
her arms. On my upbraiding her
want of maternal affection, she re-
piled, with a smile, that she expect
ed another in a few weeks, and as
she could not manage two, she made
me the first offer of her boy. whom
she would part with for rupee She
came few days afterwards with a
basket of fish, but had just sold her
child to Signor Manuel Rodriguez,
the Portuguese linguist. who though
a man of property and a Christian,
had thought it necessary to lower the
price I.alf rupee. Thus did this
young woman, without remorse, dis
bose of an only child, for IS pence.

ed to leave him to his fate. expecting
every moment to share it with him.
The winnings of the passages tbrp'

ficuIty of our escape; we might take
a wrong turn, and never reach the
great antichamber we had first enter
ed. Even supposing we took the
shortest road, it was but too proba-
BILE our strength would fail us before
we arrived. We had each OF us, Sc
parately & unknown TO one another
observed attentively the different
shapes of the stones which projected
into the galleries We had passed. so
that each had an imperfect clue 10
the labyrinth We had now to retrace.
We compared notes, and only on one
occasion had dispute, the Amefi-
can differing from my friend ana my
self; in this dilemma we were Geter~
| mined by the majority. and foftu-
nately were right. Exhausted with
fatigue and terror, We reacnea the

least to stop, if only for five minutes,
to allow him to recover his strength
1t was impossible--to stay was death.
and we could not resist the desire to
,u.h on and reach the open air. We
encouraged him to summon all his
force. and he cleared the trench
When we reached the open air. it
was one O'Clock, and the heat in the
sun about 100 degrees. Our sailors,
who were waiting for us, had lucki-
~ bardak full of water, they sprink-
led it over US, but though little re-
freshed, it was not possible to climb
the sides Of the pit; they unfolded
their turbans, and singing them
round our bodies, drew US to the top.
Our appearance alone, without our
guides, naturally astonished the A
rab, who had remained at the en-
trance of the cavern, and he anxi-
ously inquired for his friends. To
have confessed they were dead, would
have excited suspicion; he would
have supposed we had murdered them.
and have alarmed the inhabitants OF
Amabdi to pursue Us. 4 revenge the
death of their friends. We replied.
therefore, they were coming, and
were employed in bringing out the
mummies we had found, which was
the cause of their delay. We lost
no time in mounting our asses, re-
crossed the desert, and passed hastl-
ly by the village, to regain the ferry
