LAMA OR BHUDDIST PRIEST AT HIS DEVOTIONS.

This office is hereditary ; at the same time there are thou- sands of this priestly profession idling about the city attached to this or that de...ity, fed at the expense of the State and given free quar- ters.
I conversed at some length with one of this sanctimonious class in his own language — Mahrathi — to his great surprise. He came from a village near Satara of the Bombay Presidency and tramped as a bairagi — re- ligious mendicant — from shrine to shrine, covering a distance of 3,000 miles in two years.
