and Harry have not only lost their gravity,
but the centre of that useful law OF nature,
and have in consequence gone rolling down
the steps. Miss Angelina is doubled up,
as with fit of collie while Dot is extended
on the broad of her back, painting for
breath, and crying out at intervals, "Woh
bhagh giah (He has run awayD woh

key hero, then turns his rage upon Rutnee
but that Amazon, picking up a stick, which
the bunderwallah has slyly thrown TO her,
puckily stands up for her rights. She
does not see why she should not enjoy a
little filtration, not she and rightfully con-
sidering that the first blow is half the bat
tie, she aims 80 fierce a stroke at her liege
lord that, did it descend on his person,
there would have been one monkey less in
tho world. That experienced warrior, how
ever, catches the blow on his shield, but is
nevertheless borne to tie earth, when he
Immediately closes his eyes aud feigns
death. The redoubtable Retnee Is seized
with remorse, and hangs over the PROSTATE
form of her lord, while the buuderwallah
patheticslly exclaims: "Urreh, Rutnee,
Aga ASNeh Ahheh oohip hO MAJ

you done3 You have killed my lord y
Here, quick throw some water on him -
handing her a little cup filled with that
fluid, which she instantly overturns on his
face. Mozufer Khan, restored to life,
jumps up, 10 the great delight of Rutnee.
The two embrace each other, and are in the
midd of a joyful dance, when the recreant
Rustum makes his appearance on the jaded
Lumba Singh, and jumping off, impudent-
ly joins in the dance. Mozufier Khan is
about to take instant aud plenary ven-
geance on him, but is restrained and paci-
fed by the buhderwallah, and, the three
joining hands, the dance is resumed.
Lastly, and to conclude the entertainment,
the goat is called upon TO give a specimen
Of his skill in balancing his large, heavy
body on a surface which, small enough at
first, is gradually reduced till it reaches
the proportion known as "next 10 moth
ing" His master places block of wood
on the ground, shaped like the drum or
the letter Y, having a diameter OF about
four inches at either end, and, holding it
firmly in lis place, invites the goat to place
his four feet ON it by saying, "Churro,
Meah !" Mount, old friend y This being
done, another block, of similar shape but
of smaller dimensions, is placed on tho
edge of tho fret block and while the goat
cautiously transfers his feet, one by one, to
this second resting place, it is gradually
slid upon the lower block and so, till the
last or topmost block does not present
surface of more than an inch and a half in
diameter. On this, therefore, the goat can
not rest more than portion Of each foot;
nevertheless, the man withdraws his hand,
and there stands the animal, in a con-
strained position, no doubt, but one of no
long duration; for having for a few Sec
onds given this satisfactory proof Of his
skill-as an acrobat, shall we say 7-he
kips off, and the performance is at an end.
A servant girl gives the bunderwallah two
annas equivalent to threepence,) which the
man by a multitude of salaams acknowl-
edges TO be an ample reward and not in
frequently one of the children runs up
stairs and returns with plantain for each
Of the monkeys.
