THE CHUBCHES OF CALCUTTA.
The Beautiful Trees and Lovely Flow

Church Ediflee.
Caloctta (India), May 23, 1837.
En. Statesman : The heat is very op
pressive this morning. As I write, 11 a.
m., the thermometer marks 91 degrees
In the shade. By two or three p. m. it
will be 93 or 98 degrees, with a glaring,
boiling sun touring down, and not a
breath of air, save what one gets by re
maining under the punka. Even then,
after your punkawalla goes to sleep,
you are in danger of melting, nnless he
is suddenly recalled to a sense of his
doty by a glass of cold water thrown on
him, or a shout of " tono, tooo" (pull,
pull). , -
Only the beautiful green trees give re
lief to the weary eye. There are a num
ber of blooming trees here, but the most
beautiful is the regal Poinciana (French
Flamboyant), a large tree in. shape like
our oak tiees, with lovely, delicate, green
foliage and brilliant crimson blooms. In
the early morning, when the bright sun
beams are touching all things with a
golden glory, the Frinciana Regtna lends
a vivid charm to the landscape. This
lovely tree is indigenous to South Amer
ica. There is another tree that has deli
cate, purple blooms like our lilac, another
whose tiny, snowy flowers, fill the air
with delicate fragrance ; but no one I
have met can tell roe the names of these
trees, except a dwarf tree bearing very
fraarrant white flowers. They call this
the lotus tree.
One sees many varieties of crotons
here, often of great beauty, dwarf palms
and wonderfully beautiful ferns, and
other graceful foliage plants, which are
profusely used to decorate churches, halls,
vestibules, dining rooms, ball rooms,
stairways, verandas, doorways, und some
times shady nooks of drawing rooms. I
have not seen any of our graceful fuschias
or begonias since I came to India, and
rarely anv geraniums
The botanical gardens, t'te zoological
cardpna and rorettv. attractive Ivlen gar
dens, are things of beauty and should be
a lov forever to the inhabitants oi Cal
cutta. The botanical gardens are on the
west side of the Hoogbly river. Often
people get up little pleasure parties, char
ter a steam launcn anu go aown, men
across the Hoogbly to these gardens for a
pic nic excursion in the shade of lovely
tropical trees and shrubs ; and again we
go in carriages across the great pontoon
drawbridge which connects Howrah and
Calcutta, through the sleepy little city of
Howrah, through numerous native tii-
lages, where the little bamboo huts are
huddled togeiner, near some noxious i
tank, and always with a Hindoo temple
or Mohammedan mosque conveniently
near. In these villains we see men in
various stvles of coctume. that being gov
erned by the race, caste or occupation of
the wearer, squatted in the doors of their
hats, dissaving their goods and wares
for sale : others engaged in various kinds
of work, happy-faced and contented-
looking. Many of them are seen smoking
tbe " hubbla hubble "a long, oua-iooK-
ing nine, sitting a la Turk. Native women
of the lower castes are usually occupied
in menial labor, and it is marvelous what
immense loads thev carry on their heads.

poking wild in the forest near Dar

contain many rare, lovely trees, throbs
and flowers; pretty walks and lakes; bat
are chiefly devoted to animals of almost
all known species, except elephants and
camels. Birds of brilliant, beantifal
Elamage are seen here from almost erery
ind, hot outside In the suburbs and the
city we hare only the aancy rook and the
Qgly kite, a few smaller binds of no par
ticular beauty ; and now that the rainy
season Is fast approaching, we see the
large, ungainly adjutant, perched in sol
itary, solemn meditation, on the British
lion, over the great gateway at Govern
ment House, or on the high walls of
large buildings. They Tanish with the
close of the rainy season. The natives
never kill or harm any of the birds, and
are remarkably loath to kill even a
cockroach, believing in the transmigra
tion of souls. What a novel idea that a
cockroacry should possess a soul the
soul of some defunct native! The
nights are oppressively hot, and our fitful
slumbers are broken By the dismal howl
of the jackal, that prowls unmolested
through our streets.
Ht. Paul's cathedral here is a fine spec-
imen 01 cnorcn arcnitecture, ana was
consecrated in OcVur. 1847. The
building is 247 feet Ion', eighty-one feet
wide, and, at the transepts. 114 feet wide.
The steeple is 201 feet in height. The
waiis 10 tne top ot tne battlements are
i . . f . ... ....
nny-one feet. There is an inclosed ve
randa at the west end over which is the
cathedral library, consist in z mainly of
roots bequeathed by JtJisbop Wilson
The vestibule is thirty by twenty-two.
and the lantern beneath the tower twenty
seven feet square. The nave is 127 feet
by sixty-one. The east window (the
crucifixion after a dentin by West) is the
gift of the dean and chapter of indsor,
and it was originally a present from
George III to St. George's chapel, Wind
sor, but it was never placed there. The
original cost of the beautiful window was
tuuu pounus. me communion plate in
use at present was a present fom Her
Majesty Uueen ictoria.
The cathedral is presided over by the
representative head of the Protectant
church in India, as being bishop of Cal
cutta and metropolitan. Reginald Heber
was once bihhop of Calcutta, and died in
1822. His beautiful and well known
lines:
"From Greenland's ley mountains.
From India's coral strand,"
Has immortalized his name. There is
a splendid figure of Bishop Heber kneel
ing in full canonicals in the cathedral,
which originally stood in St. John's
church. There are a number of mural
tablets and monuments of great interest
in the cathedral. In the west vestibule
are memorials to the Karl of Elgin, and
to the Honorable Chief JuKtice Normam,
who was stabtied to death on the steps of
the town hall in 1871, bv a fanati-al
East Indian who ass displeased with
some ruling of the jude. and who was
subsequently hanged. There is a tablet
with sixteen bronze medallion portraits
of officers who fell during the mutiny. In
the south transept is Lady Canning's
monument in marble and mosaic work.
The windows are tintetl blue to tone
down the glare of the sunlight. The
splendid great organ is from London, and
the choir is one of the best trained in
India. The original cathedral of the
dioces was old St. John's, which was
erected about 1710. During the cyclone
and earthquake in 1737, the magnificent
steeple of Old St. John's sank into the
ground without breaking. In Uur-
ing the sacking of Calcutta by Surajah
Doulah, nawab of Bengal, the church
was destroyed. It stood in the north
west corner of Palhousie square, about
fifty yards from old Fort William, on the
east side of the ravelin, where tne
bodies of the victims of the Black Hole
were thrown one sad morning in June,
1756. When Clive and Watson retook
Calcutta in 1757, the church was a mass
of ruins, and the English residents met
for worship in a temporary building in
old Fort William. The present St. John's
was commenced in 1784, was consecrated
in 1784. and continued to be the cathe
dral church of the diocese until the build
ing of St. Paul's cathedral. St. John's is
nt. John's church is covered with tablets
to the memory of distinguished men who
I bravely laid down their lives to build up

TIIE BOYS AND THE BLIND MAN.
There is an old blind man who goes
about the streets alone, peddling some
thing. He is a familiar figure, and feels
bis way with a cane, and seems to know
the street well. In crossing tbe streets
it is customary for some one who Is pass
ing to assist the old man across, when he
goes along abort bis business, thankful
for the assistance. There is a congrega-
on the northwest corner of Walter and
Wisconsin streets, and it is really a beau-
tiful sizhtto see tne old blind man come
along there, jabbing his cane on the
sidewalk. He is aa helpless as a man
can well be, but he do sooner shown op

assistance, takes him by the arm -and

who openly uphold the action of the mob,
citizens generally deplore the affair as un-1
fortunate, especially, since tbe law had
, , j , :.i:M I
itself by hanging tbe murderer through
its regular workings. Criticisms upon
tbe action of Sheriff Groves in not taking
greater precautions to prevent such an
occurrence are freely expressed. It is
claimed that a man was sent from near
McCoy by Captain Alexander, who had
been apprised of the contemplated action
of the avengers. The messenger started
in the evening and arrived at Dallas at I
about 10 o'clock n. m. and e-ave to the I
sheriff his message. Mr. Groves prom
ised that the matter should receive his
immediate attention, and the messenger
returned to the farm of Captain Alexan
der snd informed rum that ne bad given
the sheriff due warning. At two o'clock
a. m. Keltv was hung. Sheriff Groves.
however, denies emphatically that he re
ceived any such warning.
The officers have very wIl grounded
suspicions as to who the parties who did
the lynching are. The difficulty is,
though, to make good their suspicions
and lay hold of the right parties.
All the parties to tbe lynching were
strangers to Depew, the guard. Tbe
leader, whose countenance be saw
clearly as the imperfect light in tbe jail
and the moonlight outside would permit.
he had never seen before, though he
thinks he would recognixe him if be were
to see him again. Several of the parties
wno remained obi mil e were bubo anmaaa-
ed. but thev were as safe from recognition
by Depew as were their companions who
had taken the precaution to cover their
faces. The leader is described as a low,
heavy set, active man, with a fall sandy
beard.
The sublime confidence which the au
thorities felt in Keltv's safety while in
carcerated in the Dallas iail will be shown
when it is stated that on Wednesday even
ing the county commissioners and judge
refused to authorize his removal to Sa
lem for safe keeping, deeming that all
danger of lynching, if, indeed, there ever
had been any. was passed. That same
night the murderer was bung by tbe mob.
Keltv's body was taken to the home

and buried there at 4 p. m. a

The Department of Superintfnilfiice
Discusses the Merits of Books ou
"Physiology and Hygiene."
Further proceedings of Thursday's
session of the department of superintend
ence of the state teachers' association
have been handed in for publication
The subject of "primary text books on
physiology and hygiene" was taken up
Attention was called to the fact that the
legislature at its last session had instruct'
edthe superintendent of public instruction
to issue special circular to the several
county superintendents requiring them
to select, by vote, primary text-books on
tbe above tonic for use in the public
schools ; and that the said circulars mnt
be issued during the present year, in
view of the importance of having prima
ry text books on the above subject, and
in order that schools may nave me use
of such books during the fall term of
school, it was moved and carried that it
was the sense of this meeting mat the
circulars be issued in time to secure tbe
books for the schools opening in Septem
ber.
Tbe examination of primary text
books on physiology and hygiene was
then taken up and the menu of the fol
lowing examined :

in the convention. Mr. Lyman repre
sented and spoke tuicbly of the rathnnd
er series, published by A. K. Barnes &.
Co., making mention that thin series was
recommended by the V . I . T. I ., and
that one of these books had been written
by Mrs. Hunt, national superintendent of
the W. V. T. L . He alto made favorable
mention of other series. It was stated
that since the several county superin
tendents had been supplied long since
ith the Pathfinder series by the mem
bers oi the W. C. T. I. in this state, and
since the leading series of books under
consideration were the Smith series and
the lath finder series as above, it was
suggested that the examination of these
two series be made more extensive and
exhaustive. With this in view, the
raperiatendente present proceeded to a
more minute examination of these books,
the majority determining in favor of
Smith's ' series. On motion, it
solved that it was the sense of this meet
ing that Smith's series of primary text
books on pbysMMocy aad hygiene are
best adapted for sse in srbool work.
After a brief discussion of other school
subjects, the convention adjourned sins
die.
This meeting of superintendent and
the important discuasmna brought out.
will no doubt be of great service to the
school interests represented.
