OBAUNOEY 1L DEPEV7, Secretary of State Sixty Thoonnd Person* Drowned la India. L»ter advices reveal the full extent ofthe disas'or inflioted by the terrible oyolore In India. A Calcutta letter to tho London T.mee\ jaat Joctived says : \I tea that the news cf 12 000 persons having been lost Lq,the oyclone was received with inorudelity In Fngiand. The estimate was wide of the truth, but only because It vastly underrated tho calamity. As ererj one who knoiva this country will readi ly conoelve there ha no possibility of ascertaining pnWisely the loss of life, because hundreds might be e*opt away and leave no trace be- hind. But wo are not without data for our conclusion, and it hee been now calcu'ated tbat there oannot be fewer than 60,000 per- sons drowned or otherwiah killed by that furious storm. In the Island of Sanger BIODO before tbe cyclone,tbere were 8,200 persons There are no«r about 1,200—nor have tbey left It to go d-»esere. 7,000 were carried clean away by tbo etorm wave. All up the fivtr the population has been swept off, if not in tho same proportion,yet in very .-urge numbers Ai wo all anticipated* disease ia rngiDg eve-yahere—cholera, fever and smail-pox.
