A PLEASANT DWELLING PLACE.-lndia is
said to be delightful place to live in. The
Overland Singapore Free Press gives this
charming little summary of its attractions.
There has been quantity of violent deaths
and serious accidents of late, caused as
much by lightning as wild beasts. The
crocodiles have eaten up very great num-
ber of persons. On the oath of March at 10
p. NJ, a crocodile seized by the thigh citi-
zen of Prinselacy, who was seated ia the
evening on the steps of his house. The man
clung to them desperately, uttering loud
cries, and successfully resisted the beasts
efforts to drag him into the water. A crowd
soon gathered. before whom the monster
withdrew. At Batavia, an alligator caught
native, who was drawing water from the
river by one of his ankles. The man was
fortunate enough to escape. In the district
of Batuvirap, tiger spraug on man pass.
ing through piece of jungle, and killed
him before help came. There were fifteen
wounds on the neck, and five in other parts
of his body. A farmer in that district,
watching his growing crops, was carried off
by tigress. An undevOured half of his
body was subsequently recovered. From
June, 1874, to April, 1856, the tigers killed
more than forty persons 10 the residency of
Kravrang, notwithstanding the inhabitants
slaughtered one hundred and twenty-three
of these animals in that time. The torrents
of Sarahagi had carried away three people
and drowned two.

PARoLEs.-Gen. Buell. deserves credit for
one sensible act. 10 a general order he has
forbidden any officer or soldier in bis de-
partment from giving his parole to the en-
emy, when captured, not to serve till ex-
changed, unless the person thus promising
las the express written authority OF the
reneral in command for entering into such

agenuity which would have been thought
hameless if displayed by Yankees, but is
raiseworthy in rebel land-pirate, he no
ooner captured o dozen or fifty men than

more damage; and thus relieved himself of
a burden he could not have borne. lie bad
no provisions to feed them; he had no men
to spare to guard them; if, with ingenuity
equal to his own, they had clung TO him,
and refused to give their parole, they would
have brought him up at very early stage

AN EPISODE OF THE WAR.

Dead--dead--dead
Far better it should be SO;
To lie in pauper's comm there,
Than SINS temptation 10 know.
For oh, my girl was bonny and fair,
But beauty's curse you see,
When hunger and want disease and care,
Such merciless fends can be,
1t was for her sake that, day by day,
biy heart grew heavy aud sore;
Till hope itself seemed ebbing away
From my life's dark, sunless shore.
She was starved to death, say,
Because of the fierce and cruel STRIFE
mid our kinsman far away.
Man, look on her face so worn and pale,
On her hands so white and thin;
Here was spirit that would not quail
From striving her bread to win.
But wonder, closed is the factory gate,
The engine is red with rust;
And what could we do but starve and wait
,Till peace should bring us crusn
Dead-dead-deadl
With her brother lying ILL.,
And her father shivering on the step
That leads to the silent MILL
Alone kneel in my binding tears,
Alone in my black despair.
My heart Ger burdened with gloomy fears,
Yet far too bitter for prayer.
Why do you pirate how the world still grows
More kind and more wise each dayS
Wars bloody flame still glitters and glowsj
The olives Of peace decay.
Dead-dead-deadl
Oh. God! that my curse should fall
On the heads of those whose selfish aims
Have worked such woe for US alP
Man, blame me not for my burning worde,
Nor bid me these thoughts discaim;
For death bas rven the silvery chords
That swelled through my angnished frame.
True, Pm only a woman whose heart
Lies struck by mortal blow;
But, God, how keen is the b eeding smart
A mother alone may know.
