From a late London Magazine. Cupid in India. A Fact. About
two years since, a gentleman of property in Bengal, wrote to
a friend in London, deploring the state of beauty in that
scorching climate, and requesting him to prevail on some
young lady, well born and educated, with a tolerable share
of personal charms, to make a voyage to India, giving his
honor to make her immediately his wife. The gentleman who
received the commission was induced to send his daughter,
who to a disengaged heart, added beauty, music, and every
accomplishment. . .
