THE HIsToRY OF INDIA LITTLE

The HISTORY OF INDIA IN LITTLE
India is country that has never be-
longed to its natives. Two thousand
years ago Alexander and his Greeks led
dusky eaptives in golden fetters from
thence to Athens After him it became
the prize of Parthian bows and Scyth-
ian spears. Then came Mohammed and
his Persians from Ghuznee, to teach, by
scimetar, the new theology, "Allah is
Allah, and Mohammed is his Prophet" :"
Then the Afghans drove out the Per-
slams. Then the Tartars drove out the
Afghans. Then came Timour, the ter
rible Tartar, and the long and princely
line of Great Moguls-Baber and Ak
bar, Jehangire and Aurengzebe. The
Mogul Empire got, like the British, too
big to hold together. Down went the
throne at Delhi, and up sprung crop
of Viceroys, Nizams, Kings, Shabs, Ra-
jabs, Newaubs and Nabobs, all over the
provinces. About this time II. B. NJ.
East India Company came to trade, and
stayed to rule. By cajoling one prince,
threatening another, invading third,
and protecting" fourth, they got the
whole concern into the hands of John
Bull, and the lion and the unicorn. If
the Sepoys succeed in securing native
Hindoo dynasty now, it will be the first
they ever had.
