THE ANTI-SLAVERY BUGLE.

opened this year; whereas we have scarcely q sixth
part OF 1t in operation. But then the railway de-
%partment is u presided over by q high military func'
tlonary, who studied railways for several years ct
o high salary in Timbuctoo.
1t was not many weeks since the passengers by
railway lad to cross in o crazy little native steamer
reached by a single plank from tho muddy beach
to the wet deck. Even now with o good platform
aud q larger boat, the orowding, confusion, and
haste are disgusting and disgraceful, though quite
in keeping with the other arrangements of this
guaranteed line, H.-.
Beyond this, again, is the Mapping of Calcutta,
where the native trading craft from the upper and
easternsprovince congregate in vast masses, laden
with oil the varied produce of the country. A bus.
Ter scene than here presents itself, is not to be met
with in India. Cotton aud jute stores, rice sheds,
linseed warehouses, crow d the dense neighborhood;
whilst, near at hand AN army of ~vultures and crows
await at the burning Chat, tho comfortable pick
ings of the next dead Hindoo.
The whole of the exports Of Bengal, with fow
exceptions, pass through native agency and We
may nearly say the same Of the imports. The
reader in the far West may perhaps form somt
idea of the busy scenes daily enactingin the bazaari
of Calcutta, when he learns that the official thu
by no means the really value of the exports of las
years, was little short Of fourteen millions sterlin,
while the imported goods were valued at over eigh
millions, To convey all this to ard from Euroo
required fifteen hundred ships of an aggregat
burden of nearly a million of tons. To carry tn
same to and from the interior, has needed twice tina
capacity OF tonnage. Thus flows the great strear
of commerce in the East, e~nriching as it passes tn
many thousands who swarm in and around til
City Of Palaces.

AARON BURR.

The last elk chapters of Parton's Life of Burr
contain many anecdotes of Burr, and numerous
incidents, which throw light on his character and
peculiarities. A gentleman who spent some time
in his office, gave the author the following account
of his daily habits
HE rose at the dawn. A breakfast of an egg
and a cup of coffee suficed for this most abste-
mious of men after which he worked among his
papers for some hours before his clerk and assis-
tant arrived. He was a hard t~ask.master; he
kept us all upon the jump All day he was dis
patching and receiving messages, sending for
books, persons and papers; expecting every com
mand to be obeyed with next-to impossible oeleri.
