Saleu, Sept. 16. jridi-2 Pufwr* ? By capt. Neat, of the A.trxaiidcr uikl capt Dennis of the Btiugal, we have been politely favored with Bom bay paper* to the 1 7th of May, and Calcutta Uppers to the Kth of May, from which we have lhadesome interesting extracts for tins day's gazette. llorriblrnrlf- immolation. We under stand that one of the papers brought in the Bengal, but which we have not been able to obtain, contained an acount of two females being recently burnt on the tunc pal pile oi their deceased husbai*ds, near Calcutta. The British government, it is * said, inter fered to pervent it, but finally a compromise was made, that no force, or binding of the limbs, should be used, but that the women should, after the fire was kindled* be left to their own free will. The cofisqqueiice was, into i\w, .

Co. of Boston. From the Madrdmi Courier. On Weusdjy, the 26th of I'ob. as three "young gentlemen were shooting npar Killa nour, (Killanour is lo miles from Pondich crry, on the Tindevenum roa.1) a villager informed them that a woman had been torn about two hours before by U tiger, and said he would show them the jungle to which he had retained ; they accordingly went with hhn. Several villagers followed with tom toms ; they were not long in tiding the re mains of the woman's clothes, with a basket and some grass which she had been gather ing. The villagers soon roused him, in passing from one pan of the jungle to another he caught one of them and tore him very se verely ; the great noise made at the time caused him to let go his hold, and retire to a large bush on the hedge of a banK. The gentleman then surrounded the place, but not supposing he was there, from his being so quiet, one of them went to look in, when he ruse from the middle of a bush, with a dreadtYil roar leapt upon a villager, and threw him a nonsiderable distance ; while in the act of leaping, be received a ball in his hihder quarter, which laid him on his back, but still kept hold of the man ; in this position, hejrotunother in his shoulder, fvhichmade him furious, the third gentleman tl?^w ran lip and sent-u charge^of shot through liim, a flpekr shackled him to the ground, while villagers (one or two, for the others had made the heant use of their legs) thumped his head with large sticks, which soon put mn end to his existence. - He was mot e man seven feet from his nose to the end of his nil ; to judge from the condition he was in, he must have made great depredations in dus neighbourhood. 1 he man) who was last caught, had his arm so very, much shattered, that 1 am afraid he will neaer be able to use it, the Animal having the greatest pail of his side in his. mouth at the same time.
