ABSTRACT

The fateful events in India, singular in the history of mankind, and perhaps only comparable to the violent and continuing uprisings of mercenary soldiers in old Carthage, have animated in all those of a thoughtful disposition the interest in that eternally strange land and its inhabitants. For the civilized (sic) European, India has suddenly moved significantly closer, a mutual influence of both the worlds, especially the intellectual struggle innate to Christian nature, will come to the fore and familiarize us with those related tribes. 1
