Barma havana weuoseeded in gotting the lease of this Barmore forest from the King,and that in conqueses offers have been made by a syndicate of Surmens and English merchants to parohare the legs of the forest hald by the Honsbay-Barmah for eight lakhs of rupees. This competition for tank forants in Upper Barmah will at any rate have the effect of opening the oyms of the Burmese Cloteroppant to the valce of their beak forsats, for which they bare hitherto goia varylandoqusto revenue, compared with the profits made by the workers. "In the Red Karon country, whoses the timber goom to Moalmain, where loga waza formerly obtaiunt in the forosta at Rs, 20 esah, I am told foresters were buying last year as t. 85 in the forests. When the expenses of foating and lows of logs on the way is considered, high prices have to be realised in Moalmain to ranke the speculation & paying one.
Those are things she accomplished as a queen but she was equsile famota for her personal Tirtues and shrístian ebamcter...
While yet a child, long before she seaanded the throne, she threw in her lot with the abris Giang, and was contact to occupy a very humble position. Throughout the persecution she conti. bued afandfest in tha faith." We oftin so that Then the people was raised ferm a low position to honour and power they fall away from their christine simplicity; the slevation of Eausra lona II only intensifed her devation and caroleranse. At her coronation, she caused every thing to be so arranged that there should beno doubt as to her christien oharacter. Both by personal piety and christian conversation this was alsotsdified. Frequently her proclamations teamed with passages from Holy Scripture. Her public baptism and continued Hiberality for churp purposes whether at Christmas in siding and ornating church buildings for poorne dis. triots, showed the geuninouas of her ohamoter. She must have expended not less than £1,800 every year in such objects. In this we find hor reason the destruction of the idols, and ker intcleration of all connected with former superstitions.
From the time she laid the foundation stone of the chapel royal, until its completion she took most lively interest in the building, and after it was opened she never failed to attend its servioss,
In all times of great moment in the affairs of the nation, as in her personal concerns, she in variably laid the matter before God in prayer Through all hor sickness, she continually derated part of the Saturday, that in the midst of ber Illmass she should not loove her reason the never so nor drank or partook of her medicine without giving thanks to God, and her inst mo- ments were passed in prayer.
