another panther nesr Of hand which ran up tree

The real Bayaieres.-A theatrical enga gem ent
with six pagan priestesses 10 certainly novelty
king Solomon to the contrary notwithstanding.
There is som elhns very am using in the following
abridgement, from a Paris paper, of tho agree
ment entered into by certain NJ. Tardivel, of
Pondcherry, and tho company of Bayaderes, or
Indian dancing girls whose recent arrival in Paris
has been ehronclcd in tho newspapers.
The names Of the bayaderes are Tile Ammalle,
aged 30 years, Ammany Ammalle, 10, Ranga
Ammalle, ID, and Soundra Ammalle, 10. They
are accompanied by R,malin ga Modely, aged 40,
as director Of the dances, Saravanapoulle, Is a
singer, and Devanayagapoulle, musician, Mr. TAT
direl engages to pay each Of these seven the su IN
Of 10 rupees per month-about dollars-frorn
the day Of ,hor departure from Pondieherry TO
that oftheir return; to pay each in advance be-
fore leaving Pondieherry, the farther sum of 403
rupeca; and the like sum of sou rupees on their
return; and to dcfray all the expense of their
living while absent. The term for which they are
engaged is 10 months. IIo also pays to a certain
Canagambnlam, of Pondiclierry, tho sum of 1000
| rupees-500 on tho day before the sailing OF the
| bayadcre., and 500 on their return-for What ser
vices ia not stated, but probably for assisting o
nsQocn'e the bargain,
Five dollars month for real Bayaderes what
downright imposition. The principle which reg
ulates generally tho difference between the pure
and the spurious, between the real turtle and the
mock turtle-is entirely reversed here. For while
these Observation-Disclosures, Ranga, and Scum
dra, obtain only five dollars per month for dis.
play Of limbs, those limitation bayaderes, Celeste,
Augusta, and Lecompte, net some hundred dollars
nightly! This is clearly unjust. But there are
other considerations the part of the young Ash
atics more obnoxious still. One, in particular, lie
not only tyranous as tending to destroy the elory
of free. will, but considering their secular charac-
ter is covert insult.
On their part the Bayadetes engage to exhibi,
! wherever required by Monsieur Tardivel, &c
with proviso that if any of them shall becom
| ence,ste during the eneamen, she forfeits all m
due tt her at the time, thereafter to accrue
1t has been stated, in some of tie papors, that MI
Yates, of the Adephi theatre in London, has en-
gagged these Bayader"s for England. Ho has Sc.
cured them, the Paris paper says, for IA months
paying NJ. Tardivel E50OO, and taking off his
hands the expense OF reconveying them to India.
They are prtcstesses 1t appears, of the paqoda Of
Tirouvcndi-Pourham near Pondicherry.
