d.
EDITOR COsMOrLITE: desire. as an uns solicited
tribute to the merits of Helmbold's Buchu and for
the benefit of those similarly afflicted a. myself to
LAY that after sulting many eminent y>icians,
and trying nearly all the best advertised remedies,
in the vain hope of finding relief from aggravated
kidney and bladder diseases, from which have
uttered excessively for many years, good fortune
finally suggested To me IIembOld's Buchu which
commenced using with little faith, and no apparent
beneficial results for about a month At the eXpr.
alton OF that time, however, thought commenced
to experience slight relief, which encouraged me to
pcr-eyere in its use and now at the expiration of
four months, although am an iniirm old man,
nearly Is years of age, and consequently medicines
cannot be expected to favorably affect me as they
otherwise would. have found ,uch unspeakable
relief and permanent benefit from Mr.. Helmbold's
valuable discovery, that feel ] ought to publicly
record the fact, an acknow Judgement to him and
IA valuable suggestion to the public.
Your. respectfully, d. NJ. LAREN.

Hindoos have spoiled the lives of their wives
and daughters, and Nemesis has spoiled
theirs, and made them the easy prey of
their Saxon conquerors, whose ancestors were
naked savages when they we're a splendid and
cultured race, but whose women, even in
those old days of Tacitus we're Thought to
have in them somewhat of the divinity" The
marvel is not that Hindoos are what we find
them, but that any race can have survived so
long such monstrous infraction of natural
laws. Most marvellous of all is it that Hin
doc women, with the ''set of their brains, as
we should think, turned to idiocy through

Women i'm India.

The condition of women in India seems to
have constantly deteriorated since the Vedic
ages. At the time of the institutes of
Menu, it had reached a stage of absolute
sa6jection, but had yet something worse to
fall to, the affection of the modern practice
of incarceration for life, and death by suttee.
ebay and night" say the Institutes, !" ''must
women be held by their protectors in state
of dependence. Their fathers protect them
in childhood, their husbands in youth,
their sons in age. A woman is never fit
for independence. Women
have no business with the texts of the
Vedas. Having, therefore, no evidence
of law and no knowledge of expiating tests,
sinful women must be as foul as falsehood
itself. She who keeps in subjec-
ton to her lord her heart, her speech, and
her body, shall attain his mansion in heaven.
Even if husband be devoid of
good qualities, or enamored of another
woman, vet must he be constantly revered as
n god by a virtuous WIFE" The code does not
hint at the practice of widow-burning; but,
from making the position of single women
and widows absolutely unbearable, the ground
was laid for the two great crimes of later
ages against women-viz., lnfanhcide and
suttee. The stupendous selfshness of men,
who were not content with reducing woman
body and soul to the adoring and un-
reasoning dependence of dog during
the life of her husband, but re-
quired her after his death to "emaciate her
body, live on flowers, and perform harsh
duties till death, " led to those not unnatural
results. They were the most merciful
mothers who put their female children out oi
world which offered them no mercy, and
perhaps not the most unmerciful Brahmins
who urged the widows to terminate theil
miseries on the funeral-pile. At the present
dav in India il is An ordinary thing for q lady
to be born in the upstairs zenana, and never
once to have trodden the earth, even of the
most confined garden, before she is borne tt
her grave. What existence must be among
a knot of women thus immured together
with nothing but their loves and hatreds ant
iealousies to brood upon, is awful and piteou
