Women TN Cochin Ch5na.-In Cochin China,
as In all countries where civilization has made but
little progress, the women are doomed to the most
laborous occupations. traveller in that country
says the women may be seen standing from morn
ing TIL night in the midst OF pools OF water, up to the
knees occupied in transplanting rice. They I'M
dertake the labor of tillage, and the various en-
pigments of agrculture-while those who live in
seaports, besides the management of their domestic
concerns undertake the superintendence of the va.
rious branches of commerce. They even assist in
constructing and repairing the cottages they con-
duct the manufactures; they ply the boats in the
rivers and in the harbors, and carry the articles
produce to market But nothing can be stronger
proof of the degradation of the female character and
the unceasng labor to which they are doomed,
than the proverbial expression in that country,
that 6 woman has nine lives, and bears a great
deal of killing"
