Thnt keen observer of nature, John

pretty story of rt woodchuck. In the
nprltiK of 1875 bo whs exploring "m

mid when passing round n frozen luko

CREDULITY OF THE HINDU.
Suiuplo of til Daltlslon Which
lf
Occanlouullx Harbor.
Here Is a remarkable Instance of tho
credulity of tho Hindu, and the wild
kind of delusions which ho occasion-
ally harbor. Tbo writer 1 described
a a Hindu gentlemau of standing mid
reputation, mid this extract Is taken
from a latter written to a gentlemau In I
Knglmid:
Wo are having awfully serious news
circulated In the papers here. Extracts
purported to be from tbe Morning
M-ader, of Ixmdon, and I.a Ilou Ciuon-
din of Spnln, Impress us that the em
u. uviiiii, uuir u nml i.7 n-
pcror on the coronation day was dan-
gcrouely III, nnd wns never really
crowned, for tho ministers caused blm
to be personated by a beggar of Wlilte
chapel. We are really very concerned
to hear It, and wo firmly believe the
uows to bo a false creation, but won
der why the government Is atlll Inac
tive ns regard to taking any Mops to
punish the author of so foul a calumny."
The gentleman who sends me tlio
above extract gives some other quaint
example of the amusing fiction which
gnln currency among tbe native of
India, any a writer In Iondon Truth.
Tbe bigger nnd tho more preposterous
the lie, ho anya, tho more readily It Is
believed. When tho Jubilee bridge over
the Hooghly was being built, the story
got about that the government required
n thousand heads of natives for the
foundations of the bridge, and had
given orders that nil natives walking
over tbe maldnn after dark were to be
seized, and taken to the "Sballnu
Kbann" the native name name for the
Masonic lodge where their beads were
lo be cut off for use In this uncanny en
glneerlng operation. The natives, It la
said, were afraid to walk In thnt direc
tion after dark for this reason. Again
at the time of tbe Inst Indian frontier
war, a fat Ilabu clerk disappeared from
one of tho government offices and could
not be found. It wnn firmly believed,
says my correspondent, by bis fellow
clerks and neighbors, that he had been
seized by order of the government, to
be made Into ointment for the benefit of
the wounded soldiers. Happily, the fat
Uabu turned up again safe and sound;
so no serious consequences resulted
from this delusion. If an Idea llko this
can bo seriously accepted, ob my In
formant says It was, by tbe class of nn
fives who pass examinations nnd bold
public appointments, nothing that may
find acceptance wltb the "lower orders"
can bo wondered at.
