The loss of life was terrible. No few er than 250,000 men, women, and chih ; dreu perished.

The Government Gazette says wherever the i storm .wave passed it is believed not u. third of the population survive. The islands have barely ' one fourth of their inhabitants. The stench Irom the putrefying bodies, scattered over a district hundreds of miles in extent, is intolerable, and there is great fear that the cholera pest, that has just appeared iti rnookholiy, will spread oyer the whole country east of the Pun jttub, and perhaps find its way to the -.j opulou.- Calcutta district and the crowd ed regions beyond News from: the districts of Madras threatened with famine is somewhat bet- ter. .
