COMMUNICATIONS.
A Singular Custom.

SsnsuiaI CustOms
The following statement is found in Huc's
travels in Thibet:
The Thibetan women adopt a>sastom, or
rather submit to a regulation certainly UNIQUE
in the world. Before gSfng out of their houses
they rub their sssces with sort of black
sticky yaraish, good deal like conserve of
grapes. As the object is to render themselves
hideous, they daub their faces with this dis
gusting cosmetic, till they scarcely resemble
human creatures. The following was, we are
told, the origin of this monstrous practice.
Abouttwo hundred years ago. the Nomekhan
or Lama King of Anterior Thibet, was a man
of the austerest character. At that period, the
Thlbetan women were not more in the habit
of trying TO make themselves look ugly than
the women OF other countries on the contra
ry, they were extrayagantly addicted TO dress
and luxury.
By degrees the contagioa spread even to
the holy families of the Lamas; and the Bud.
hist converts relaxed their discipline, in a
manner that threatened a complete dissolu-
tion. In order to arrest the progress of this
alarming libertinism, the Nomekhan published
an edict iorbidding women 10 appear Ia pub
lie unless dIshgured In the fashioa above men
toned; the seyerest punishments and the
heaviest displeasure OF Buddha were threat
ened TO the refractory. IL must have required
no ordinary courage to publish such an edict;
but that the women obeyed il was still more
extraordinary. Tradition makes no mention
OF the slightest revolt on their part. The fair
Thibetans vie with each other in rendering
themselves irightful, and she who Is most Of
fensiyely besmeared, passes for the most pious:
the custom appears 10 be considered as dog
ma TO be accepted. In the country the law is
most vigorously observed; but at Lila Ssa lthe
Capital) women are to be met with who ven-
ture to appear with their faces as nature made
them; but those who permit themselves this
license are considered as women of bad repu-
tation, and they never fail TO hide themselves
when they catch sight of an agent of the po-
lice.
