EUROPEANS IN Irma—No one who has not been subjected to the enervating character of the climate can imagine how it drains the mind of' all desire to improve itself, until it comes to be satisfied with stagnation and wish for nothing better. I~took out fancywork to Madras with me, which I never accomplished ; after a short time the needle would so dull in my hot hand, that the exertion of pulling it through the cloth was too much for me. Every woman knows how irritating it is to work with a needle that will not pass gliny through the material. Even the native tailors who are in your service, and sitting cross-legged all day long in the ver- andah working, are obliged to keep a bowl of water by their side, to dip and cool their fingers in as they proceed. And I remember my great difliculty Was, not to get my work done, but to find sufficient for my tailors to do ; for the natives sew very fast and very neatly. Singing is hard work, too, in a hot climate, and the pianos get out of tune. I think drawing in water-colors is about the nicest and most useful employment that any one can have out there; but unfortu- nately, I was too stupid to do that myself. The men who have not appointments waste their days quite as much as the women; for they smoke their lives away—and we all know What smoking generally leads to. N 0 mother, whose son is destined to spend his best days in India, can do him a greater kindness than by seeing that the culture of whatever accom- plishment he may possess the taste for is not neglected amid his general education. The best men that I have known in India, the quietest, the most moral, and I think I may add the happiest and healthiest, have been those who had a taste for music, or some equally innocent means of passing their time during the hot part of the day, instead of spending it in shirt and trousers, with their legs higher than their heads, a cigar in their mouths, and a tumbler of brandy-and-water within reach. I have mentioned What struck me as strange in the behaviour of these ladies who were more Indian than Eng- lish in their manners, but I am not going to dismiss the sub- ject without animadverting on the conduct of some of the wives of the officers in English corps, who used, on account of their own supposed superiority, to affect greatly to look down upon the married ladies of the “ N.I,” (as the native infantry regiments are technically termed,) as well as upon their husbands. After a period of seven years spent con- tinuously in the presence of both, I may be supposed to be capable of forming an opinion on the subject, and I most em- phatically affirm that, as a rule, I have never met with gentle- men anywhere to surpassin breeding and manners the officers of"

n the native infantry regiments in Madras,Bengal, and Bombay.
