SKETCHES. OF INDIA.
No. VI.

Sumatra, known also by the names oil Pulo Pu-
rchu, Indalas, and Java Minor, and which is also
supposed to be the Ophir of the Scriptures, is about
1000 miles in length from Acheen TO the Straits Of
Sunda, and about 65 in its average breadth, through
the extent Of which there runs high chain Of noun
tans, some peaka Of which ,S42 feet above the
level of the sea. The island of Banca, celebrated
for its tin mnes lies on the eastern side of Sumara,
and along its western coast extends chain Of islands
which seem to have originally belonged to 1t. II IS
separated by the Straits of Malacca from the penln-
sua OF that name, which extends 775 miles by 1875
to the isthmus of Kraw, which joins it 10 India, be-
You'd the Gauges. The western coast OF Malacca
is also studded with islands, which seem all to have
been at some time or other attached 10 the continent
Pulo Penang, or Prince Of Waess Island. is one OF
great consequence and the Ncobars and Andamans,
which form chain almost from Acheen to the head
OF the Bay of Bengal are cuFiosi.es on account of
the savages by whom they are Inhabited, The great
Andaman is the principal island of this cluster and
is about lao miles in length by 20 in bresdth, and,
near the centre OF it, mountains rise to the height of
400 feet above the Its inhabitants are sup
posed to be oriental negroes OF the same origin as
those which inhabt the interior of Maacca. In the
Andamans, their number does not exceed $500.
and they are perfect savages living on fish and rep
tiles of every description. Their hair is short and
woolly; their noses fiat, their lips thick, their
eyes small and red their skin is deep dirty black,
and their whole appearance horribly highu' their
limbs being very slender, aud their bellies protuber-
ant. They go quite naked, smear their bodies over
with mud as preservatvc from the bites OF lnsects,
paint their hair with red ochre, and their counte-
nance presents a most disgusting picture of misery
and ferocity. Their chief occupation is fishing,
hunting, and searching for birds nests among the
rocks for they know nothing OF husbandry, at least
thew will no, practise it They rarely above
Eve feet in heig hit. Providence has given them, at
particular season OF the year, an abundant supply
Of fish, which they dry in the and lay up in their
wretched nuts for time of necessity; but such is
their want of care and foresight, that they arc often
forced to eat the most obscene reptiles, and II has
been asserted that they anthropophagi. Lizards
puanas rats, snakes, and edible birds nests, are,
however, known TO be among their daily food. Fist
