An event occurred in the latter wears
ot Ala Bhye, OF too interesting and az

son, Malice Row, has been noticed. She
had, besides, one daughter, Muchta Bhye.

after reaching manhood, died at Mhysir.

TO leave her dcsolatc and alone uDon earth
Muchta Bhye, although atieciionate, was
calm and resolved. "You are old, mother,
(she said and few years will end your
p'ous life. My only child and husband are
gone, and when YOU follow, life, feel. will
be insopportable ; but the opportunity Of
terminating it with honor Will then have
passed" Ala Bhye, when She found all
discussion unavalling, determined TO wit
ness the last dreadful scene. She walk
ed IN the procession, and stood near the
pile, where she was supported by two
Brahmlns, who held her arms. ALTHOUGH
obviously suffering great agony Of mind,
She remained tolerably firm until the frs,
blaze Of the fame made her lose all self
command and while her shritks inCreas-
ed the uoIst made BY the eXuitinp shouts
OF the immense multitude that stood
around, she was seen to gnaw in anguish

the persons by whom she was held. After
some convulsive efforts, she so far fecov-

1t is pleasing to ind,' observes Sir
John Malcolm, that her devotion, al
though it forbade her TO infringe what
usage had sanctioned and rendered holy,
had not subdued in this admirable wo-
mans mind the maternal feelings Of hu-
mainly After her husbands death, who
was killed before she was twenty years Of
age, she always dressed in plain white

lost upon Ala Bhvc. A Brahmin wrote
book in her praise she heard ii With
patience, observed that she was unde-
serving the enComiums bestowed on her,
ordered IL to be thrown into the Nerbud-
da, and took no further notice Of the au-
thor. Sir John Malcolm remarks, that a
female without vanity, and bigot with
out intolerance, form an extraordinary

man, rest, he assures US, on grounds that

The following passage is taken from
CampbelI's Lectures on Poetry, published
in the New Monthly Magazine -" He
slod summary explains the origin Of
evil, by throwing all the blame Of it on
the weak sex. Superstition has seldom
exhibited man in more ignoble light,
than as the author Of this hctiou--a
wretched being, attempting to wreak his

Jpstinian, in his code, remarks 5, that tile
lot OF woman, in many res poets, is hard
er tlan that Of man This observation
IS correct, when applied to the Roman
Laws, and those Of more barbarous "a
tions; but, as society became more rein
ed, and man felt that all his earthly hap
piness originated in the female part ol
the community, laws were passed for
their protection ami in some instances.
they were even more favorable than those
made expressly for the other sex.

AIR SADLER,S BALLOON.

The ascent Of Mr.. s,adler in company with
Mr.. II. ii. Peel, of tAc Sd Dragon Guards,
took place at Liverpool on the goth OF May.
MIR. Peel appeared in blue flannel round
lack ct, and military foraging cap, and white
trowscrs; Mr.. Sadler wore a round jacket
and trowsers, and fur cap. The balloon
being sufficiently filed, the several mstrn-
mcnts for observation, the barometer, COM
pass, &c. were placed in the car, together
with a quantity of sand-ballast, iii bags Oh
eight pounds each. Mr.. Sadler, accompa-
nicd by Mr.. Platt, tic young gentleman who
assembled with him few weeks ago from
Richdalc, entered the car to ascertain the
power of the balloon; and after adjusting 1t,
Mr. p. reluctantly resigned his scat to Mr.
Peel, who cyinccd the utmost calmness Oh
the pcrious occasion. The balloon now APP
pearcd in it's full magnitude, in alternate
stripes of crimson and yellow, and as the sun
shonc upon it, rendered it semi transparent: ::
it nndulatcd to and fro, as if impatient to
bound into the realms of ether. 1t was now
taken to the windward end of the yard, and
having been several times let go, and again
dragged to the grodnd to adjust it to the de-.
sired buoyaucy, it was announced that all
was ready. Two ladies came forward and
presented the flags to the rronauts. Every
bosom now throbbcd with intense cxpecta-
ton. and in a few moments the word "let co."
was given, and the balloon with its pendent
voyagers scared majcstically from the earth.
1t rose nearly perpendicular for some dis
tance, and taking a ). f. direction, slowly
and beautifully iloated aloft, over the town,
the sun-bcams cleaning on it as Oh burn
! ished globe. 1t is :mpossiblc to conceive an
ascent more sublime and gratifying than this.
The giant bulk of the balloon formed strl-
king contrast to the diminutivc size Of the
car and the intrepid voyagcrs, who, suspend
cd beneath the gorgeous orb, sailed calmly
and noisclcssly through fields of air. There
| is an ,ndescribable emotion which arises
from the contemplation Of SO extraordinary
Il spectacle of human ingenuity and daring,
/ and we know of no qualification Ill which all
classes may more freely and innocently in
dulgc. Every eye was fixed upon the GRO
nauts, who waved their flags in token OF the
prosperity of their departure; and nothing
was heard but the eager exclamation OF won-
der and admiration. The air borne vehicle
however, was soon beyond the ken OF those
within the square, and the multitude began
to move towards the southern and higher
narts of the town, where the view was unln-
terrupted by houses. The pressure Ill the
narrow part of Lime street was extreme;
but the crowd was soon divided by the
branching streets. From the Mount, and
the houses in the neighborhood, the balloon
was distinctly seen for upwards OF 40 MN
utcs, in the direction of the Runcorn. 1t did
