Mr. Lindloy remained in Africa until 1S73, when the failing health of Mrs. L. induced him to come back to the United States. As he spent thirty-nine ye ais in Africa, speaks the language flu ently, and has traveled thousands of miles through the country on foot and on horse back, there is probably no m3n liv ing so well acquainted as he with the reli gion, the mental and physical characteris tics and tho manners anil the customs of the natives of Africa.

B«*k and Job Work, of all klads, PROMPTLY AND NEATLY EXECUTED AT THIS OFFICII. Naming Hoises.—I liked the English habit of naming their houses; it si ove the importance they attach to their homes, All about the suburbs of Loudon and in the outlying villages I noticed nearly every house and cottage had some ap propriate designation, as Terrace House. Oak tree House, Ivy Cottage, or some Vil la, etc., usually cut into the stone gate post, and this name is put on the address of the letters. How much better to be known by your name than by your num ber! I believe the same custom prevails in the country, and is common to the middle classes as well as to the aristo cracy. It is a good feature. A house or a farm with an appropriate name, which everybody recognizes, must have an ad ded value and importance.—Scribner t Monthly. Happy Children Make Happy Men.— All dissonance of character has its real foundation in these early impressions. The happiness of children depends much on their being as little as possible inter fered with in their little joys. How qnickly do their good inclinations unfold themselves ! How open are they to every humane and gentle feeling ! Harsh and erroneous treatment acts in the very op posite way; it shuts them up. It is not the ideas, I believe, that one learns, which really work on the character, but those which one makes his own, because the im mediate bearing on our disposition is what makes them really important. Right ideas, therefore, may engage tho imagi nation whoso creations become hereby only more harmonious. But every fancy does not act and create in the same de gree. It is that alone which points out to the teachers tho different treatment that is neocamTj.-Oetlrrt. ly inhabited by three nations or tribes, the Guineas, the Hottentots and the Zu lus. The last named tribe extend for some six hundred miles on the eastern coast. They have never been guilty of the infamy of the slave trade, and when Mr. Lindlev found them forty years ago, they wero uncontaminated with the vices of civilization. They were in a state of nature and furnished a fine illustration of what the light of nature, unassisted by- revelation, can do for the elevation of the human race. They had no idea of a God, none of the future state, none of the im mortality of the soul, none of rewards or punishments beyond the grave. So completely ignorant were they of these momentous truths that they had no words in their language to express them. Unlike the heathen world in general, they were not even idolaters, for the sim ple reason that they had no idea of super human or superior beings.—They were afraid, however, of tbe ghosts of then- ancestors, though they had ill-defined notions of what these ghosts could do or could not do. A “ghost” they said, "is a shadow which cannot be seen." Thev had (in 1834) no clothing, save an apron of untanned monkey hides, which was tied around the waist with sinews taken from animals. They had no knowledge of working cotton, wool or flax. They knew nothing of tho metals, gold, silver, iron, etc. Their houses wero made of long poles, an inch or two in diameter, worked into the shape of a cone and cov« erod with grass A hole to crawl in was the only opening in it ; the hut having neither window nor chimney. The women, who did all the work for their lordly masters, dug a holo in the middle of the hovel, made there the fire, and cooked in an earthen pot the mush for the family. When the meal was prepared all gather ed around the pot and ate with paddles or wooden spoons. The dogs licked the pot and the children licked the paddles and spoons, and that was all she washing they get. Many children were burned to death or seriously injured cverv year by falling into the pit where the cooking was done. Owing to tho life of druagery of the women and to their ignorance, improvidence and carelessness, a small fraction of the chi! dren borne by them lived to be grown The bods in the bub; were nothing but skins spread on tho floor, the pillov Iceland. Mr. James Bripe, in an article in the Cornhill Magazine, describes Iceland in a chilly way. Ho says there are no trees, though apparently there were plenty in tho tenth century, when we hear of men hiding among them and being hanged from them. No corn is grown, nor any other crop, except a few turnips, and po tatoes which taste only half ripe. The only wild quadrupeds are the blue fox (who has probably come, as the white bear now and then does, on ice-floes from Greenland,) and tho reindeer—tho latter introduced about a century ago and still uncommon, ranging over the desert mountains. There is no town except the capital, a city of 1800 people, no other { >lace deserving to bo called even a vil age, unless it be the hamlet of Akureyii, on the shore of the Arctic Ocean, with some fifty houses; no inns (save one in that village whose resources consist of two beds, a single jug and basin and a billiard table); no hens, ducks or geese (except wild geese); no pigs, no donkeys, bo roads, no carriages, no shops, no man ufacturers, no dissenters from the estab lished Lutheranism, no army, navy, vol unteers or other guardians of public or der, except one policeman in Beykjavik, bo criminals, only two lawyers, and final ly no snakes. “What, then, is there?” asks Mr. Brice, and replies, “Snow, moun tains, glaciers, hot springs, volcanoes, earthquakes, northern lights, caverns, morasses, and, above all, deserts. A Paradise or Sand Pies.—Children in St Petersburg, Russia, have glorious times. That is those of them who delight in making sand pies, or who find huge enjoyment in digging among sand. In many of the small parks there are here and there large open spaces covered with gravel. Every morning may be seen in eaeh of these places a largo cone of sand about four feet high and six feet in di ameter at tho base. During play hour* the children of the vicinity flock to the spot armed with little spades and other implements, and having little wagons and other vehicles, all of which are drawn in to requisition to scatter the sand over the gravel space. This affords the chil dren much amusement and gives them good healthful exercise. The sand cones ere renewed every moning, the matter being attended to by the authorities. The idea appears to be that tho sport gives the children a taste for physical exercise. They certainly get lots of fun out of it, and more than enough to compensate for the occasional spankings which a too Careless delving among the dirt undonbt- •dly earns. ♦—^ii Wxlbtjh Bailet, a colored teacher re quests to announce that there will be a meeting in LaGrange, on November 7th, to consider the question of colored people colonizing on some of the nuoccnpied territory of the United States. We hope if tho negroes feel it to be their interest to go West, that they will be enabled to do so. The whites in this county are ready io help them.—La Grange Reporter. Woods, of the Hawkinsville Dispatch ha* abandoned the gonrd vine businea*. Hi* latest is in the piscatorial line^ and is in these word, as follows, to-wit: “Mr. J. A. Turner, of Irwin county, on Satur day, Mth October, caught with a hook and line, in the Alapaha river, one hun dred and twenty five pounds of fish in above five hoars. They consisted mostly of jack fish and trout bolsters were stones or sticks of wood, Tho natives owned sheep, cows and chick ens.—These they took with them into their huts every night as a protection against wild beast. The heat, filth and stench from the conglomerated mass were beyond conception. The chickens were raised only for their feathers, as the negroes would neither cat their flesh nor their eggs. The Zulus had obtained scraps of iron from CapeTowu. and these were shaped into rude hoes and spears.— The hoe was the only agricultural im plement used. Long ago the Indian corn had been introduced, and was cultivated by tho women with the hoe. They also cultivated a kind of sorghum cane, but for the seed only. The cano and sorghum cano seed wero ground into a kind of meal by rubbing between two rocks, and this meal was cooked into a kind of mush.—This, with pumpkins, constituted the breadstuff of the natives. Their meat was either beef or mutton. Living on a coast abounding in fish, they did not know how to catch them, and would not eat them when caught by other per sona! The government under which the Zulus lived was a hereditary monarchy. A king by the name of Charka had subdued many tribes and his kingdom covered many hundreds of miles. He was the Napoleon of Africa, and by his bold innovations upon the old system of tactics became a great conquerer. The Eastern Africans were ignorant of the use of bows and arrDws, and went to battle, each warrioi* carrying half dozen spears and an ox-hide shield. Charka made his spears to be used as bayonets, and not to be thrown. He organized his men into companies and regiments, and when they went into action, they moved steadily forward up on their enemies and got into close quar ters with them. The other tribes were accustomed to stand at a distanco and hurl their spears. Charka’s close work terrified them, and many tribes were over thrown and became tributary to him. He was murdered by his broth er who reigned in his stead.* In an evil hour the assassin king made war upon the Dutch at Cape Colony. Twenty-five Dutchmen armed with muskets killed fifteen hundred of the Zulus in a single en gagement. and tho Dutch in the end broke tbe power of the Charka dynasty. Tho English now have control of most of the country which was once snbject to the African Napoleon. Mr. Lindley describes these Eastern Africans as the most honest people on the globe. Theft is almost unknown among them, and is invariably punished with death. They are a litigious people and are constantly going to law with one another. All their cases are adjudicated by the King and his Council. The Zulus are sprightly and intelligent, fond of harranguing in public and great talkers in private. They are very truthful about indifferent matters and groat liars where their own interest are concerned. They are hospitable in their own .way and are ever rea dy to welcome a stranger, give him a portion of their mush and a skin pallet among the sheep and cows in the hat. The two great obstacles which tho mis sionaries have to contend with are super stition and polygamy. The negroes believe in ghosts and witch craft, When a child has fallen in the fire, or an adult is taken sick, the calamity is attributed either to the ghost's being offended or to the effect of witchcraft. There is a med icine-man who decides that question. If he say* the ghosts have been offended by not being sufficiently well fed, the afflic ted persons set aside a double portion of to propitiate them. If ho says that witchcraft is the cause of the trouble, then is a solemn convocation of the whol* tribe, no one dare absent himself. Tbe medicine-man then picks oat the ne gro who bee the most cows and sheep as the wicked conjurer. The wretched man is immediately ran through with a spear, his wive* sad children are killed, his are all burned and hie sheep and cattle are divided between tbe Song and the The Brunswick Appeal say* the planter* have mad* a good crop, wd have] medicine man.—Grant and hi* party |li|»fcmaUe Ji»* to father ifc tip* torn tfc»Mton man.—Grant and hi* ^artgnmat xSH""* m-vtto hundreds of miles around. Port Natal, which has been the centre of the opera tions of Mr. Lindley and other mission aries on the coast Over a largo belt of conntry, European civilization has been introduced to some extent. The natives in that belt wear shirts if no other cloth- ing, use horses and plows and cultivate sugar cane, sweet potatoes and the cereals. They have also learned to han dle the axe, the saw and plane. In 1834 the negroes, as we have aid, had no im plements save the spear and the hoe. When the latter was worn down almost to the end, they put a different handle to it and changed it into an axe, with which they cut down the reed-like poles that are used to make tho frame-work of their houses. Over a large portion of Africa there is nothing of the timber kind, ex ccpt these reeds or bushes, which arc somewhat like the chapparal brush of Mexico.—The vast plains arc covered with grass and are roamed over by herds of antelopes, gazelles, gnus, rabbits, etc., which are the prey f f lions, tigers, jack als, and other ferocious animals. Tho lion is less courageous and dangerous than the tiger. He never pursues men or animals, but lies in wait and makes a sudden spring. If he fails iu his leap he gives up and makes no further effort to catch his intended victim. The natives having no knives in 1834, killed their beef cattle by running a spear in the left side and then cut them up, a* best they could with their spears and rude axes. They ate all the beef, inclnd- iuo entrails, except the bones, and these were mashed up for the marrow. A man is valued according to the num ber of wives he has. Thero is no ro mance in Africa. The wife is simply a piece of property, worth ten cows in the market. These go to the father of the bride. When a man proposes a purchase, the father tells his daughter to get ready to go to the house of her intended. The girl seldom object*, but if she does she is tortured into compliance. One of the methods is to tie the sinew of some animal around her fingers until she faints. Another gentle process, is to break a mud-nost of ferocious ants npon her naked person and these sling her into more reasonable frame of mind. It ^omotimes happens that «n old man of seventy with a dozen wives takes a f. nry to a girl of fifteen. Ho may bo noted fi r ins savage character, the girl may loathe and abhor him, and she may be dread fully afraid of ill-treatment from his other wives; but if the father gets the ten cows he will sell her to the old polygamist and force her to go with him. Tho wives hate each other so cordially that tho hus band is forced to give each of them a se perato hut. He takes care that each one shall do work enough to pay him back for his ten cows. In two weeks after the birth of a child, the mother straps it on her shoulders and goes to the field to work the corn, pumpkins and sorghum, for the support of her leige lord, and her children. He loafs around and chats with other idle men or goes to court to conduct his own law suit about a cow or a strip of land. The narrative of Mr. Lindley suggests two thoughts. 1 That the so-called light of nature can never teach man the character and attributes, of God, and the duty man owes to him Rome, when mistress of the world, and at tho head of the worl l’s civilization, worshipped as her chief God Jnpiter of Olympus. . The die- ties to whom the war-like Romans and the cultivated Greeks bowed down were all monsters of wickedness. Mr. Lind ley gives it as his deliberate opinion that the Africans would never in all time have emerged from heathenism without aid and instruction from abroad. This proves beyond all peradventnre the ne cessity for missionaries, and answers the objections to the missionary canse. 2d. The South has christianized and civilized more heathens than all the missionaries in the world for two hundred years. The North brought these heathens here, and when they were unprofitable to them as laborers, turned them over to the South. Our people have aocomplished the work so well that even in the judgment of our enemies, or “late enemies,” (more appropriately?) they not only “fonght nobly for the Union,” but are now the only loyal subjects of his Majesty, Ulysses, in Ml the South, and are the only persons in all the South fit to be rulers and trus ted officials, save the carpet baggers and their allies of blessed memory and savory character.—Southern Home. *»r Lbree baa tho foiloirinff iinpr- vemeota on it, to-wi Toro duelling bouane, oce containing ail rooms and _ basemenl. anil in rear tnereof, a kileben and atabla or barn, encloaed by a cubatantial plank fence, and now ' known as ocoupiad by Hamp.
