Life On a Tea Plantation in India. Dear ; Watchman: The Assamese about our district and northern Assam are of a white sun-burnt complexion, with a decided resemblance to the Mon gols in their features ; some may be seen almost as white us Europeans. In hnbits, the' are a very lazy, easy-going people, displaying very little intellect ual power, and however anxious the Government mtiy be to employ them in public offices, the majority of the best posts are filled by Bengalese. In the working of our estates, very little local labor ean be obtained, and even the little we have is very uncertain: five to six hours is a good day's work for an Assamee, and then you don't get him everj day. The only work they care for is pruning, basket making, or other light work; hoeing and such other manual labour is out of the question. As a rule they live in villages, scattered all over the countrv. each iat. or caste, having separate townships; for seldom consideration of their giving an agree do people of different juts live in the ment for a period of years, at a certain same village.

In most cases they Pan TameL trees is a sure sign of a , remain there all their life or at least village or what was once the site of a 10 or 15 years; when they reach a cer "Gaon." These deserted Gaons are . tain age, they are called dependents very numerous in Assam, partly caused and receive a pension, so that they are by the ravages of the Burmese, when better off than some people think, they conquered the country, killing or Those who leave after serving a number carrying away the inhabitants as slaves, of years "generally take up a piece of and partly from the superstitious ideas land, build a house and settle down, of the people. For instance, if fever, ' having saved enough money to keep smallpox, cholera or some other deadly them the remainder of their lives. In disease attacks the village, the inhab- j this way Assam is being rapidly col itants immediately say that the place onized by Bengalese aiid the Assamese is haunted, and in many cases they in their turn are dying out. Their leave it en masse, and settle elsewhere. ! houses are built much in the same The Assamee at home rents a parcel of style as those of the Assamese, but all land from Government, at a small are together; the village, so to speak, is yearly sum. Tn April he plants his 1 generally known as the lines. In dhan (rice), and quite contentedly ! religion there are all sorts. Two gen waits until ij grows, reaping it about : eral festivals are held annually, one in October. Low lying land adjoining a 1 March called the Fugwa, and the other "I an ( snaltow wiue river i as a ruie grows the best dhan, the reason beiu that the dhan reouires a erreat deal ot moistnre. The only agricultural im plements used are ' a rude wooden plough, consisting of one upright pole, and a wooden socket projecting from the bottom ; this is drawn by a couple of bullocks or a buffalo; for harrows, a bunch of prickly bushes tied together is used; for reaping, the usual imple ment is a bilihooked knife, about nine inches long; for threshing, the old plan is adopted of treading out the corn by bullocks ; for winnowing the dhan they use as sort of plated tray, and shake it up and down something like what was done in England long ago. When all is gathered in, the native sells part of his grain to the Bengalee coolie for about three rupees per maund (801bs.), the remainder he keeps for himself and family, and as their food almost whollv consists of curried bhaf; pigeons, fish, goat's flesh, &c, they livei qiute happily ana conteuteiu food as beef, mutton, fowls, and the, much hated Gahori (pig) are forbidden by all their religions save in a few cases where the jat is of the lowest description. The native houses are built of bamboos, plastered over with a mixture of clay, &c, and the long jungle grass serves as an excellent roof. There are no windows, chimney, or wooden floor; the earth rubbed over with water soou hardens, and assumes a glossy appearance, and as there are no nails in any of the inmates' boots it never gets loose. In religion the natives are very mixed but the greater portion are Hindoos and Brahmins. They have too great feasts yearly, one 1 in April called Dor oeuu, smu uw-ucr in December named Soot Behiv The (principal parts consist of killing a few goat as sacrifices, feasting, as music (such as it is), and dancing for several ! days. Intoxicating liquors are prohib ited by theic religions, but the natives are tond of smoking hookahs, and chewing can tamel, a kind of hard berry about the size of a marble, and growing on a kind of a palm tree. Chewing can tamel seems worse than the obnoxious habit of chewing tobacco, it makes both the lips and the teeth quite red. The assarnese, like other Orientals, marry very young. First of all a bargain is made between the father of the young man and the father of the girl. The matter being talked over, the young man's father agrees to pay the girl's father a certain sum. This is called the betrothal, and to confirm the contract a feast is given to the friends of the girl by the father of the young man. When the boy reaches the age of 14 or 15 the marriage takes place; friends of both parties are invited, and a great feast is given, last ing several days, at the close of which tlie bride and bridegroom are carried to their house shoulder high. In clothing, the Assamese differ very little from Bengalese as far as style is con cerned, but their tastes just lie in opposite directions, the Bengalese lik ing showy dress, such, as red, yellow ancPgreen. while the Assamese wenr spotless white, verv often native silk. In Lower Assam the natives are called Kacharese, being a much finer class of men than those met with in Upper Assam. They travel about a good deal, and play much the same part Irishmen do at harvest time in England and Scotland, coming up hare to work on the estates while their dhan ingrowing, I getting together a few rupees and then returning to their homes. They are fair workers with the hoe, hut are often very troublesome customers to deal I with; a manager who will employ more l than 100 of them at once is thought a j bold man. Besides Kacharese, we have similar visitors from the hills called j Kia as. These people can handle an axe or a knife with much adeptness, and they are generally employed cut ting jungle. While at work they keep time to every stroke with their war cry, which sounds something like hae hoe, and when walking along the road in single tile you will often- hear the same hae hoe to every step. lhev are a verv dirty lot ot people Nothing manes a uener least ror tnem man a roast dog stuffed with rice, or an old gharry bullock. They seldom even wash tht?ir faces. They are a very warlike people, some tribes are quite; independent, and many are the feuds between the different tribes; sometimes 100 will be killed at once. The real labouring classes of Assam, so to speak, are the imported Bengalese. These coolies are imported by owners of 1 I ii H L 1- - ll 11 estates, all their expenses are paid in liroeuwiiiwr tiineu uic iuuin iwi. The Fugwa consists of a great feast at which every boxly puts on his showiest clothes. Music and dancing and paint ing each other's faees 'with a kind of red powder called "Fakwoogooie" are among the things indulged in, and at the .end of it all drink is used to excess. The Doorga Pooja is the greatest festi val of the year. The ceremonies differ according to the particular part of the country. The chief office consists in sacrificing goats, pigeons, etc., to the god Kali. If the first stroke of the axe kills the goat that signifies that it is accepted, but if it should require two strokes, it is counted as a bad omen. After the animal is killed the blood is daubed on a long bamboo with the tips of the four right hand fingers. A piece of cloth to serve as a flag is after wards fastened on the end of the bam boo and placed upright in the ground to commemorate the event. Another part of the business consists of an image of Kali being thrown into the river, and if it sinks that is taken as signifying a good season, but shpiild it float, it is regarded as the omen of a bad seasoa. There are many other cere monies, some performed by elephants, &c, the conclusion being much like the Fugwa, and Ting Ting heads are rather fashionable when work is re sumed. The favorite Bengalee liquor is lad pani, a kind of intoxicant made from fermented rice I mean favourite because they cannot afford to pay for European liquors, though whisky or beer seems to be liked uncommonly well when the Sahib gives them any. In clothing nothing is "too loud" for the natives. They are also very fond of jewellery. Bracelets are worn 1 1 a -Li on tne arms ana ansies: nn m heir ears, noses, toes and finders. A little casket is hung round their necks from infancy to keep away the evil spirits. It regard to tea planting a few particulars may be of interest. The seed for the "tea resembles black marbles. We plant about January in a piece of good land, abouVfour inches apart. These plants soon appear above ground, and in about nine months' time they are about two feet high. In December they are removed into the new clearance prepared for them, and planted at intervals of Oft. by oft. It takes two years more before they yield any leaf, and then for the two succeeding years they yield but very sparing quantities. Plueking generally commences about the end of March, and is carried on all through the year until December. The leaves after being plucked are spread on trays to wither them; this operation in fair weather takes about twelve hours. Afterwards the leaves are rolled and' fired by machinery: the they are picked sifted and finally fired before being packed. From December to March the bushes are pruned, clearances nade, building and sundry other oper ations are carried on. Hoeing and cultivation, of course, is done all the year round. This is absolutely neces- sary, owing to the rapid growth of jungle. The principal be.ists of burden are the elephant, buffalo, and bullock. Horses are foreign to the Assamese, and are only used by Shahibs for riding and driving purposes. The climate for about four months of ths year resembles July in England, only there is little or no rain. The remaining eight months are not quite so nice, heavy rains and a hot sun causing a moist heat. English people here, as in other foreign coun tries, are very sociable with each other, and many are the pleasant days and evenings spent at tennis, polo, and cricket. English flowers and vegeta-. bles grow splendidly out here; nearly every resident has a garden worth look ing at. Orchids and geraniums are to be found as common as any other kind of jungle; any tree with good shade is almost sure to have an orchid some where about it. There is plenty of shooting to be had from the tiger down to the snipe. Jackal hunting is great ly resorted to now, and many fine runs are made over the ''Pitars." . A Runaway Train. A THRILLING ACCIDENT ON THE ASHE VILLE AND SPAKTANBUKGJIOAD. Charlotte Observer. A construction train, heavily loaded with dirt, yesterday got beyond con trol while descending a heavy grade, and shot down the mountain side with frightful velocity, killing five of the convicts and one guard who were on board, and wounding eight other con victs. The accident occurred on the steep grade near Saluda, and from the best information which can we obtain it seems that it was caused by the breakage, or failure of the brakes to act. The train was quite a long one, composed entirely of flat cars, all load ed with dirt. On top of the dirt on each car was a spuad of convicts, and guards were distributed among them. The grade near Saluda is a very steep one, and just a-? the train had be gun the descent the engineer found that the train was pushing him ahead, and despite every exertion, he quickly found himself powerless to check the speed of tlie train. The long line of ars behind him, all heavily loaded, pushed his engine forward as if it had been a mere to', and the speed of the train increasing with each revolution of the wheels, it was soon along the rails at the rate of a mile a minute. The convicts aboard the train had nothing to hold on to except the tumbling dirt, which was blown from the cars in showers by the force of the wind. Some of the convicts were blown bodi ly from the cars, while others were forced overboard with tumbling dirt. The train made a run of two miles before it could be stopped, and along the route back to its starting point were strewn the bodies of dead and in jured convicts. Five convicts and one guard were picked up dead, but we have been unable to learn the names of the unfortunates. Eight convicts were quite severely injured, but of those who managed to remain on the cars not one was hurt. Persons Overcome By Heat. As we are in the midst of the heated term of the yeiw it may be interesting to know how to treat persons who may be prostrated by the heat. If one who is overcome by heat is pale, weak and pulseless, he wants a teaspoonful of strong stimulant. If he is flourid in the face, and his heart is running like a windmill, he wants an application of water with ice on the temples and wrists. The first is "overcome by heat," the second is genuine "sun stroke," and a good deal more danger ous. The former is preceded by nausea and dizziness, the latter, if there are any premonition at all, by sudden dimness of sight, everything turning green. The fact that the Democrats of Iu diana have mustered up courage to adopt an unequivocal tariff plank, for revenue only, is an interesting political pointer. That is the straight way out of the wood, and the right w&.yPhili Record, Dem.

Wilt tee Ijd it Slip Through Our Fingers? Winston Sentinel. The South Atlantic and i orth western RailroaU Co. is the name of an organ- ization which proposes to build a trunk line, designed to connect the great Northwest with the Atlantic seaboard at Smithville, thirty miles below Wil mington. The link necessary to be built is from Smithville to Bristol, Tenn. Beginning at Smithville the projected line is aimed to touch at Conwayboro, Marion and Bennettsville in northern South Carolina, thence the road will extend to Kockingham, in this State. At this point the syndi- cate having the road in contemplation, pause to consider two different routes to Bristol. One is to leave Kockingham, go to Albemarle, in Stanly county, thence to Salisbury, Mocksville, Wilkes Iwro and through Cooke's Gap into Tennessee. The other route, which is shorter, through better countrv, easier and less expensive to work, anrl touch ing at points having larger freights, extends from Rockingham to Troy, in Montgomery county, thence to Lexing ton, on the North Corolina Road, to to Winston and thence to Yadkinville, Wilkesboro and on to Bristol. Col. David Risley, representing the South Atlantic and Northwestern rail road, Visited Salisbury last week as.we learn from the Watchman, and held a consultation with leading business men of that place. Col. Risley states that the objects of this road are to make another shorter and better seaboard connection for the northwest, and make monev out of the freight traffic inci dent to a countrv containing fine coal beds, deposits of superior iron ore, and producing as great crops of grain and tobacco as does this section of North Carolina. He thinks these are suffi cient reasons for an adequate and con tinued freight traffic to the coast, and that the distribution of the local freights will give business to the west bound trains. He claims that the pro posed route will be 100 miles shorter to the sea-coast than any other line, and it is expected to become one of the inost important and remunerative roads in the country. Col. Risley has been over the whole of the route and reports that the people are very entnusiastic. lue counties of Brunswick and Stanly, through their Commissioners have already or- 1 t fin .! dered elections tor the purpose or voting $100,000 each to the scheme The situation is relieved of any risk whatever, by the syndicate assuring the people that not a cent of the county subscriptions will be asked for until the road is built and trains are acutual ly running. This ought to be a mat ter of encouragement for the people, doubfy so, when Col. Risley avers that the road will surely be built. The contractor of the road, Mr. Bil heimer, now has a corps of engineers engaged in making the survey from the Smithville end of the line, they are expected to reach Salisbury within a few weeks. If Salisbury bestirs herself she may doubtless win the route, but the Watchman intimates as follows: '"The seeming immediate prospect of active work on the Yadkin Kiver Kailroad,H and the papers already signed by the directors as the road with Dr. Em mens of London, acts as a check on a very rapid movement of our leading people here in regard to the new trunk line scheme represented by Mr. Risley." On the other hand, if Winston-Salem go immediately and earnestly to work this road can be attracted this way. Whatever is to be done in this matter must be done quickly. Our business men vq have to act with emphasis and decision, or this road, like several others will elude our grasp and give us the go-by in not so literal a manner as many of us would like best. Our crisis has arrived! Shall Winston-Salem seize this opportunity and place herself on a grand trunk line that will make a teeming city of her, in very truth? Or shall we sit idly back and let our streets grow up in weeds, our real estate sink to the bot tom, our store houses, placarded, "For Rent," our dwellings vacant and our populatian gradually decreasing. town ever grew to be a city of atir extra dimensions with only 29 miles of Railroad, and Winston-Salem cannot be Jong an exception to this rule. We must have additional Railroad facilities! It is our vital need. To have them we must not only consent to voting at least $100,000 to the project but our leading men must first see that the road is brought this way. We must work, work, WORK, with vigor, energy and perseverance to gain this great industrial point, or else we must reap the bitter reward. The Sentinel hopes the Chamber of Commerce will take hold of this pro ject and put its best efforts to play to ward a realization of the benefits to be derived from so important a Railroad connection.

This is said in justice to a city that has been spoken of as having pro duced no heroes or famous men since the revolution, The Romance of the Baltimore Cemetery Corrrttpondencr of the Xetc York Star. . . . Ihe Cemetery in Baltimore is a won - derfully romantic place. Some tery 1 1. , , . m. i noted people sleep there. There are th Booth family and Mme. Patterson-Bo- ff. who has c.a,Ted uPon the hl1Se otockor granite that keeps her ambi tious spirit down : w After life's fitful ever, she sleeps well." But the romance that created the cemetery is perhaps the greatest of all. A great many years ago it was a country place of a very,' wealthy family. The father, a widow er, had one daughter and Fevend sons 0n this girl he lavished all the love that . . a man of lasslote can give, and you can imagine how indignant he was when told that she wanted to mar ry ja handsome worthless cousin. He ! positively forbade it, ordered the cousin. not come near his house, and he forced his daughter to promise she would not meet him outside. Weeks passed, and during that time the darkies began to talk of robbers on the place. Theyaleclared that they had seen them, talked so much about it that the sons and their father concluded to keep a lookout One evening. Nothing was said about it for fear of alarminjd their sister. Far into the night they watched, and saw in the moonlight a figure cross the lawn, evidently a white man, and very certainly, they thought, one of the robbers. The father fired, the figure swayed to and fro, and then fell to the ground. Out they rushedTto capture the robber, and they found their sister, dying, unaole to say a word, and. they knealt beside her until her heart ceased to l)eat. Then they lifted their precious burden and carried it back to the home which she had left a few hours before with such a gay heart. Believing that her father's anger was only temporary, she had evening after evening met her lover in the park; and; to escape detection, had each time put on a suit of her brother's clothes. The darkies had seen them, and as they kept their faces well hidden, were quite sin- ! cere m peiieving mem people wno nad j come to steal. The family vault on the I nUito ro.tt:voi fil0 jonri iv . iu il i iii , ,, , , house was torn to the ground, and the beautiful park sold for a cemetery, with the understanding that the vaultavas to remain as it was.
