A pony was wading about in the pond, and feeding on the c. ssy hillocks, but the crocodiles took no notice of him.

I should be sorry, hewever, to to repeat the experiment, and not from the chances of meeting with a crocodile (for I believe the Fakirs of the temple guard well against such accidents), but from the circumstances that (as is generally the case' all over the East) lepers and persons affected with loathsome diseases repair to anch localities. The crocodiles dig deep into the sand, under the neighboring date trees, and there deposit their eggs. Quantities of deciduous theeth, of various sixes, were strewn along the slimy sides of the pond.

Accordingly we bad a goat slaughtered, during which operation the brutes seemed to rouse themselvea as if prepared tor a rush. Then our guide, taking piece after piece of the flesh, dashed it on the bank, uttering a low, growling sound, at which the whole tank, become in motion, and crocodiles of whose existence we had before been ignorant splashed through the shallow water, struggling which should aecure the prize.

I should be sorry, hewever, to to repeat the experiment, and not from the chances of meeting with a crocodile (for I believe the Fakirs of the temple guard well against such accidents), but from the circumstances that (as is generally the case' all over the East) lepers and persons affected with loathsome diseases repair to anch localities. The crocodiles dig deep into the sand, under the neighboring date trees, and there deposit their eggs. Quantities of deciduous theeth, of various sixes, were strewn along the slimy sides of the pond.

Accordingly we bad a goat slaughtered, during which operation the brutes seemed to rouse themselvea as if prepared tor a rush.
