HISTORICAL DISCOVERY IN CALCUTTA.
The Englishman newspaper mentions an interesting historical discovery lately made in Calcutta, This is the exact site of the monument erected to Holwell, the survivor and annalisb of the Elaok Hole. Special interest attaches to the monument, as it marks the spot where the victims were buried. When the search began the Government of Bengal gave a small sum, but that grant was expended, and the work continued at the cost of Doctor Hunter and some other gentlemen. It is proposed to mark the spot with a slab.
