FOREIGN MISCELLANY.

The Pig and the Fat Thereof and the
Trouble Caused Thereby in India.
DELHI, Oct 8-The i'll feeling recently
aroused between the Hindus and Mohammedans
here over the mutual violations of their re-
spective religious principles eliminated in riot
last night. Several persons were killed. The i'm
mediate cause of the bloodshed was the pro-
flaming of the Jumna Musjeed, or Great Mosque,
by Hindu sectarian leader, who tied small
pig in painful posture within the sacred edifce
SO it squealed with all its might. This enraged
the Mohammedans, and they at once assaulted
the Hindus. At Bombay society has been
ganzed to propagate hostility to Mohammedans
ard to inculcate general knowledge of the true
Hindu religion. The native religious agitation
is continually gaining dangerous activity. Ore
cause of much of the trouble is the fact that the
butter IN common use had been found to have
beena duterated with pigs fat.
