The Rajah having ordered the sports to
commence we turned our eyes to tile area
below with much curiosity, to see what
should first happen. In the middle of the
great square an enclosure or ring, about
thirty or forty yards across, had been form
ed by means ola double line of posts, 10 feet
high, over which was cast a strong netting,
forming secure wall Of ropes, but so loose
that il hung in folds to the ground. The po-
pulace filled the rest Of the square, along with
the guard, some mounted, some on foot, and
am afraid to say how many elephants there
might be-2O or 80 at the least, together
with numerous bodies of policemen bearing
long poles with flags at the end. These, l
presume, were intended for show; but anoth-

sharp-sounding drums and number of shrill |
pipes, resembling in squeak that of our PEN

during the whole exhibition.
On one side of the space within the ring
two beautiful leopards stood chained 10 Sc
parale posts. AS these animals had been
caught in the Jungle the day before, nothing
could be more sleek and glossy than their
coats. Near these noble beasts, as il in con-
trast, were turned in, quite loose, two jack
asses, each of which drew behind him, tied
to his tail, globular empty eathern bottle,
called, ] think, dabbah, about as large as
man could grasp in his arms. Into these
machines handful Of gravel or dried peas
had been inserted, TO make noise as the
poor donkeys moved about. On the other
side Of the arena two painted wooden figures
of men were placed in leaning posture
against stakes fastened in the ground.
