British Child Mortality in India.

A correspondent of the PaU Mall Gazette in Calcutta writes: The most painful feature of British rule in India is the sacrifice of English children which it yearly involves. Some start ling statistics have lately been publish ed, which show that in 1871, out of Ill., GOO soldiers children in India, 40 per 1000 were i'll every day throughout the died. It is stated that one-third of the India die under six months old; that eighty-five per cent. perish before they reach two years; and that out of 100 in fants born only eleven attain maturity. The popular idea of Anglo-Indian life is that of an armed adult community which garrisons and rules over con- quered empire, and trades in its princi- pal cities. As matter of fact the first thing that strikes a stranger is the ab- sence of English child-life. On the other hand, the most prominent feature in an Indian grave yard is the number of children's graves. The little mounds cluster thickest, and out of all propor- tion to the ratio of children to adults in the barracks or in civil life. The bur den of Indian existence falls with it's most cruel weight upon the young. The human suffering and loss of English life which the Indian Empire yearly costs Great Britain takes place, not in the trenches nor on any battlefield, but upon the white cots of English children, where every day hundreds of poor little souls lie tossing with fever. An adult soldier represents too much money to allow of his being subjected to any avoidable risk, and his life is conserved on strictly financial grounds. But it is impossible to enter an Indian grave yard, which forms so essentially one of our insignia of empire, without think ing of the curse on the rebuilder of Jericho: "He shall lay the foundation thereof in his first born, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it"
 A Fish Story.

Highly grat flied at this token of appreciation from some absent admirer, he de etermined tC feast few friends herewith. He sent invitations to few of his Fifth avenue friends, and there was joyous gather ing around his hospitable board but while each took his full share of fish no one ate more han mouthful, a cir cumstance which puzzled him exceed ingly, until he receivsd 0 letter from { brother clergyman in the rural districts stating that its author had obtained tn, fish two years previous, and had pre- served it in alcohol on account of it monstrous size. Hearing, however, o the establishment of the Museum o Natural History in the Central Park, h. now sent it to his friend, asking him t. have it put back into alcohol and pre- scented to the Museum
