Lived on an Idols Dinner.

An old sailor, now a pilot at Port
Royal. S. C., is fond of relating an in
cident which occurred near Calcutta,
India. The vessel which he command
ed was wrecked in the bay of Bengal,
and he and two companions were the
only ones saved. The three men
reached shore, and in seeking food
and shelter came upon an immense
Hindoo wooden idol. While they were
looking at it they saw party of ma
tives approaching and hid themselves
in the bushes near by. Each native
carried dish of eatables which he
placed in front of the idol, and after
they Lad departed the hungry sailors
had a sumptuous feast. For nearly
week the sailors camped in the vi.
cinity of the idol, living on his pro,
visions, until they were discovered.

tives, and although victorious thought
it prudent to move on, so they made
their way to Calcutta, and there Sc
cured passage homeward.
