My own experienos is, that there is some grounds for these charges, for worse of the bills are poopled with civilised or friendly China; and when they cums to the Burmons tillgas to ex- change prednos, they used to be kicked about, deriled, and made a butt of sufficiently to ex asperate any uro. I remember on one occasion two pretty girls from one of the hills beving come down to a Burman village with fruit to exchango for yarn. The prosont King had come nearly to the throne then, and the head of the Burmese village connived the idea of detaining them, and selling him these girls as a present to bo placed in the western stila of the palace, as the arrangemont was known in the time of the old King. He axpected, in doing so, to receive promotion or some other substantial token of zoyal favour, and in drder to cover bîr own nên farious act, he tramped up some charge against Tibs sillage to which the girls belonged, and the girls were said to be kept as tostages till the matter was sattled, Old Chin wo men, with their feens tatooed with a staff similar to Nabian blucking, who come down to the plains, are certainly not fascinating, but the two Chin girls who were kidnapped and intandeil an email wives for King Theoban were, in my epizioa, both pretty and handsome.
