RlRdse Troops AbrOna,
NsN Yofk TiheE,


The dispatch OF theIHindoo troops
on foreign service, begun BY Lord
Beacon6eld, involves a singular COM
plication, which admirably illustrates
the difficulties encountered by English
statesmen in dealing with their Asiat-
ic vassals. There is nothing which
the ordinary Hindu breads more than
being sent across the "Kala PAM"
(black water,) as he calls the sea.
This arises not only from his horror
Of the unknown, but also from the
fact that such a voyage implies ''loss
of caste" the penalties of which are
as terrible as those of a papal in
terdict" in the middle ages. The
mar who has lost caste is cut of
from all human compauionship, even
that Of his nearest aud dearest. No
one would speak TO him, no one will
even approach him. Were he diving
of hunger, not soul would give him
food, for to do SO would be to become
a partaker of the same stigma. Hap
PLY, the removal of this fearful ex-
communication, like most other things
in the East, is a mere question of
money. A %coolie, or day laborer, may
earn his pardon by the payment of 100
silver rupees, $500; a trader or store
keeper must pay more, and so on up to
the highest grades of society. A few
years ago one of the native Princes of
Central India visited England, and
spent some time in London. When
be returned the Brahmin priests who
met to consider his case, agreed that
such a big thing" must not be let
slip, and many thousands of rupees
were required to reinstate the unfor-
tunate maharajah among the ortho-
dox.

FROLICsOME TOURISTS.
Six Lively Young Ladies on q
TramP-HazardOus Way of
Saving Railroad Fares.
Special to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

MOUNT AIRY, N. c., August g.
Six gay and frolicsome young ladies
arrived in this place to day, all rugged
out and equipped for a journey on foot
through the mountains Of this State,
The girls wear dresses even shorter
than the regulation walkisg SUIT, have
k~napsacks strapped over their shout
ders, wear broad bottomed easy shoes,
dark hose aud are fixed up for comfort.
They propose to take a trip on foot
through all the mountain counties of
North Carolina. In their baggage they
have hammocks, which will be used in
Ease they will have to camp out at
night. The trip will consume about
two months, and cover a district Of six
or eight hundred miles. The girls are
all young, the oldest probably not over
twenty two, and the youngest sixteen.
They are 1.-THE, hearty, and appear to
be able to make fifteen or twenty miles
a day easily. Three of the fair pedes.
TRANS are from Virginia, and the
other three from Maryland. Four of
them are pupils Of a well known sem
mary in Virginia, and the daughters Of
we'll known business men in that State.
Their present novel aid independent
trip is made principally to crafty one
or two of the party who could not af-
ford to travel on railroads. When a
desire was expressed by them in the
presence of the other four girls who
make up the party, to see the magnif
cent scenery of the western part Of
this State, it was at once proposed to
tramp il through the country and
thus avoid railroad fares, and at the
same time afford a better view Of the
picturesque. The party will leave
here tomorrow for Ashville, in Bun
Oombe county. They do not manifest
any fear of being molested in the long
and lonesome route. They say they
are able to take caFe of themselves.
Part ofthe way is through dense for
ests, which even daring men are not
anxious to travel through, especially
at night.

them Renewal Bonds, amounting to

will the boilers do with these? Will
they repudiate them?
Under the 90 6 funding aetthe fund

those not funded by this timer Will
they repu late them? or will they pay
them 10 fulI2 or will they scale them
down without the creditors consent?
These are grave questions, and it is
time they we're considered.
