Calcutta Coolies. The Coolies of Calcutta, otherwise
porters or carriers, are men of fine physique, and are able
to carry exceptionally heavy weights supported on their
heads. Coolie labourers form an enormous body of men in
the East, no less than 70,000 journeying yearly from India
to Ceylon. The word Coolie is derived from the Hindu-
stani, Kûli-a labourer.
