As If fotn wero determined to revel In Irony,
It Is recorded thnt while the rainy season
of 1770 brought 1111 abundant harvest, In the
meantime millions of starving wretches
crawled despairingly from Olio deserted vlt
Inge to another In a vain Bearcu for food,
dying In multitudes through Inability to live
through tho few Intervening weeks that scp
nrated them from their harvest.
Tho effects of this famine oro felt for
two gcncratlonH. Tho children and youn5
people having nlmost all succumbed, there
was no rlJlng generation to till the fields.
So Jungltn grow up whero ttiero had onco
been nourishing farms nnd villages, and
tigers and elephants multiplied to such an
enormous extent that their terror stricken,
defenseless population lay at tho complete
mercy of savago beasts.
In 1S37 tho Northwest provinces were rav
aged by a famine of which It Is recorded that
In two cltlej tho Inhabitants died at the rnto
of 1,200 11 day, and In tho rural districts hu
man beings perished by village).

Of the threo famines of 1860 1866 nnd
186!) In tho Northwc.U provinces, Orltsn and
Bajputnnd, respectively, 3,000,000 of people
nro pnld to have been swept away: In that

Bengal was again vlilted by a terrible
famine In 1S73, when 3,900,000 people re
ceived dally relief nt a cost to tho govern
ment of $32,600,000, and to private charity
of $1,110,000. On this occasion tho previous
opening up of tho country by roads and rail
ways, ns well no tho heroic relief efforts,
wero succcffiful In holding tho grim scourge
at bay, so that hut few actually perished.
From 1876-1878, however, the provinces of
Bombay, Madras nnd Mysoro wero swept by
fnmlne ami pestilence that nlmost equalled
tho disaster of a century before.
At a cost to the government of $33,000,000,
1.600,000 people were temporarily relieved;
but that this sufficed little Is demonstrated
by tho fact thnt lu ono district of 2,129.000
people, 570,000 aro supposed to have perished,
From tho subseQuent epidemic of cholera
tho deaths wero returned nt 357,000 for
Madras, 68,000 for Mysoro nnd 67,000 for
Ilomlmy. In all, during this fearful period,
the famine commissioners reported that tn
tho provinces under llrltlsh administration
out of n population of 190.000,000, live and
one-fourth millions of deaths tcok place In
excess of what might have been looked for
during the same period In ordinary seasons.

$50,000,000, hut yet muny hundreds of thou

It Is computed thnt fiom tho year 1770
until 1S79 India has been visited In different
parts hy no less than thlrty-ono famines,
with a loss to human life directly nnd Indi
rectly of tho truly appalling total of 17,000",
000. A glnnco at tho map of India will show
tho enormous extent of territory subject to
these droad visitations. With tho exception
of the ntrlp of coast beneath tho mountains
from Bombay to Capo Cormorln, tho greater
part of the provinces of Assam and Durmah,
together with tho deltaic dlstrlctu at the
head of tho Day of Ilcngul, tho rest of tha
peninsula Is liable to drought and conse
quent famlno; with 40,000,000 of people at
nil tlmeB on tho verge of starvation.
In spite of tho vast sums oxpended upon
Irrigation works and tho general develop
ment of tho country under llrltlsh auspices,
"e liopelefHiiess of tho situation Is ex

' recently deceased, who says thnt no com
pensating Influences can prevent theso re
curring periods of continuous drought with
which largo provinces of India nre aftlloted.
Water works on a scale adequate to guaran
tee tho whole of India from drought, not
only exceed the pojslbllltles of finance, but
nre beyond the reach of enEineerlni skill.
