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,

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.
