KEMARK.UU.E DISCOVERY 01' A HITHERTO
I'SKNOWN VARIETY Of TIIK. HUM AS
SPECIES, POSSESSING NO LEI IS
AND BUT ONE ABM.
A correspondent of the New York
H'uiiit writes from Africa (in tho cor
ner of the attic of the World building)
concerning some remarkable discov
eries of a party of German explorers
whom ho had accompanied to the in
terior under tho lead of Or. Von Gul
denhorn. On the l‘22d day after en
tranee into a hitherto unexplored
forest, thoy emerged ui>on a vast
plain, on which were soma large
trees, looking across which one could
seo the silvery glimmer of a lake, be
yond which mountains rose to an
enormous height. For some reason
the gorillas which had been follow
ing the expedition refused to follow
them in the clear, but stood on the
borders of the forest, shaking their
lists angrily while their faces wore an
expression of fiendish and vindictive
delight, which puzzled the Germans,
and certainly, if all that Dr. Von Gul
den horn says is true, should afford
Dr. Darwin anew chapter in regard
to the expressions of emotion in ani
mals. Their actions were, indeed, so
aggravating that the men could with
dilliculty be withhold from giving the
brutes a taste of gunpowder, for Ger
mans ha\’e a special dislike of being
made the subject of ridicule the cause
of which they cannot understand.
After the fatigues of their long jour
ney it may readily be believed that
the explorers were gratiilod to find
green sward on which to lie,and plen
ty of water to drink, for the plain was
irrigated by a number of streams, on
the bunks of one of whicli they sat
down and proceeded to eat a hearty
dinner. Carefully observing the
ground they saw at a distance of about
five hundred feet a plot of land which
seemed to indicate that the territory
was occupied by people skilled in ag
riculture. It was, or appeared to be,
planted with a vegetable resembling
gigantic red cabbages, arranged in
regular rows. Dr. Von Guldenhorn
approached them in order to make a
closer inspection, when, to his great
surprise, they moved rapidly away,
each on its own pedicle, giving at the
same time a loud shorn, which struck
tlic exploring party at once with
amazement and consternation. In
less than a minute thereafter the air
was full of stones, hurled with consid
erable velocity from tho place to
which the anomalous beings had re
tired, towards tho Germans, and two
of the party were struck, although
the aim taken did not seem to have
been very accurate, several of the mis
siles falling wide of the mark. Boused
by this attack, Dr. Von Guldenhorn
ordered his men to fire, and two of
the beings curled up in death, their
pedicles kicking and convulsively
quivering like the legs of a hen whose
head has just been violently removed.
The noise of the explosion and the
fall of the two beings seemed at once
to strike terror to the hearts of their
comrades, who ran off again, filling
the air with their clamorous shouls.
The Germans then advanced t.o tho
place where those lay who had been
bit with the bullets and examined.
They wore found to be animals so
closely resembling men as to necessi
tate their classification in the yvnm
homo. Taking hold of the extremity,
what had at first been supposed to bo
a pedicle, of the corpse of one -the
other being merely wounded—Dr.
Von Guldenhorn found it in every
particular to resemble the hand of a
man, In lifting it from the ground
t.jie atm of this strange tiling was
found attached t.o the irnnk by a ball
and socket joint: the abdominal in
teguments, which were very small,
were situated as in a man ; there was
a very short neck, and the enormous
head had first caused the beings to
be mistaken for cabbages. This head
was furnished with the eyes, nose,
mouth and ears of a man; the eyes
being small, but w r ell set in tho fore
head, the nose somewhat fiat and
quite broad, the mouth capacious aud
the teeth large and strong, and the
ears like those of a negro. The top.
of the head was bald, the hair having
beeu worn off in a way the cause of
which the party afterwards discovered
to their cost. "The bone of the top of
the skull was apparently very thick,
rather elastic than otherwise, and
evidently capable of great resistance.
While the one who had been kilted
was undergoing such slij/ht cv
nminatoin as then be
raven, tlic fttner, which was more
fy' suffering from a fractured hu
merous, the ball having cut the bi
ceps and shattered tho bone, lay on
the ground cursing and groaning
loudly, tearing his hair and watching
THE DAILY TIMES.
| Ills captors with glaring mid revenge
ful eyes. The language ho used was
tiniest identical with that of ilic Dos-;
jesiimus, with which several of the
party wore tolerably well neouuintod,
and in it, as used by the fallen hero
in liis extremity, could he detected
such expressions as “fool, double-1
headed Dutchman, donnenvettef ”
and ol lu rs evincing rage and possibly '
also despair. As there seemed no
probability of an Immediate attack, j
Dr. Von Guldetlhord set the injured j
bone of liis prisoner and endeavored j
to engage him in conversation, but
lie Continued sullen and would hove
little or nothing to say.
As night had now come on, pickets
were stationed, and the rest of the
party lay down and were soon asleep.
About midnight thoy were aroused by
a shout, immediately followed by an
attack of tho legless, one-armed men
of Obiljipoona, who discharged them
selves at their enemies by means of a
device curious in tho extreme. They
had slowly worked their way into the
trees by inserting Hie stroug nails of
their hands one after another into the
bark, until a limb lit for their purpose
was gained. They then 'flung them
selves from tliis brunch backward and
forward until their bodies obtained a
considerable momentum, when they
discharged themselves singly or in 1
volleys direetly at their fix’s, striking ■

that the Germans though hard press- i
ed and in danger, could not refrain
from laughter, which only added to
the indignation and rage of their op
ponents, who carno ut them, now m
broadsides and now singly, apparent- j
ly with the uotiou of sharp-shooting, j
which was not, however, particularly I
successful. At. dawn the whole iiarty
swung and waddle I away in disgust
aud chagrin,
Tho Gormans had lost but one of
their force August Krumpelhoini, a j
promising young engineer from Bin-1
gen, who was struck on the head in

on the farm. Those best acquainted
with this property say it is worth

eludes Home line horses, and is valued J
at $50,000. Home ono has estimated j
that all Grant has received in the way
of salary since 1800, allowing' a fair
amount for liviußexpenses and mark
ing tho rest at a fair per cent., would
make a little more than $:*oo,ooo. lit
is worth three times that; amount to

THE WEEKLY SUN baa now attained a circula

aro found in every Btato aud Territory, and its
quality is well known to tho public. We shall
not only endeavor to keep It fully up to tho old

tion tiiat disgraces the country aud threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of knaves, and seeks no favors from their
supporters.
The markets of every kind and the fashions
are regularly reported.
The price of tho WEEKLY HUN is one dollar a
year for a sheet of eight pages, and Alty-six col
umns. As this barely pays the expenses of paper

make special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under the new law, which requires payment of
l postage iu advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents tho cost of prepaid postage added, is the
| rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
j up a club in order to have tho Weekly Hun at this

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
11 one grain of Vaccina Virus, taken from tlie
cow’s udder and kept dry for years, then mois
tened, and the keunent point of a Lancet dipped
in it and drawn gently on the arm, so as not to
druw tho blood, will so impregnate and change
the entire system as to prevent the party so vac
cinated lfcom taking the most loathsome of dis
eases (small pox) for an entire life; agaiu, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere the poison malaria, why will not the
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy the poison, known as malaria, aud thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
impunity?
We claim that there is such a remedy, and that
we have prepared it, aud applied it, aud proved
it in our Auti-mulurial or Euehymial Belt—aud
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the wo rut malarial districts without the fear of
liaviug any diseases arising from malaria; such as
Chills and Fever, Biilious or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Eularged Liver aud
Spleen, Indigestion, Coustipation and Hem
orrhoids, ami that it will cure all the above dis
eases, except tlie worst costal of Biilious and Yel
low Fever.
This iH called an Auti-malarial or Euehymial
Belt, as it corrects the humors of the oody aud
produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys
tem, aud thus enabling it to per.orm its various
duties without fearing the effects of malaria iu
the least.
It has been tried in thousands of cases without
a failure.
They can be obtained from the proprietors in
any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broud aud Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a Mingle Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee that it will cure or the money refunded.

Atlanta, Ga., June 5, 1875.
Messrs. Love & Willhon: Gentlemen—ln April
laHt I was taken sick with regular Fever and
Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had
run ou me for two weeks, I was induced to try
one of your Auti-malarial belts; so I discarded all
medicine, aud simply wore one of your Belts, as
directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for some three or four
times, when it left me entirely, with a good appe
tite aud clear skin; aud iu future, if I should ever
have a Chill or Ague,l would want one of your Pads,
and no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
bo unfortunate as to have Chills aud Fever may
be fortunate enough to get one of your Belts,
I am, respectfully, etc.,
W. J. Wilson.
Atlanta, Ga., June 3, 1875.
Drs. Lov* k Willson:
On the first day of December last I was taken
with Chills aud Fever iu Thomasville, Houthwes
tern Ga., and was treated for the same by three
eminent physicians who were able to atop it only
for a few days at a time. It made such inroads
ou my constitution that my physician pronoun
ced me to be in the first stages of consumption,
wb en I accidentally met up with Drs. Love k Will
son’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured
me. 1 have had but one chill since, aud that was
the first day after putting it ou. lam now in us
good health ha I ever was iu my lile, aud think
this Belt a God-seud to.the afflicted.
J, M. Mathews.
Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4,1875.
Home nine years ago I contracted malaria in
Savannah, Ga., from which 1 have suffered, at
times, ever siuce, until I met up with Drs. Love k
Willson’s Anti-malurlal Belt some three months
ago. I have worn it continually, and have had no
chill since, anil find my general health, which
has been poor, much improved. I would recom
mend it to others suffering with malaria.

Friend Hodgson: I received your letter of the
26th ult., on yesterday, I have been off ou a fish
ing excursion and just returned.
The people of this town don’t chill worth a cent
yet. I have sold two of the pads, and that I did
the very hour I first received them, ono to one ut
our conductors, and to Mr. Vaughn, a Clerk in
the, office. They both suy that they tried Quinine
and other remedies, and that thoy failed till they
put on the pad; siuce then they have had no more
Chills or Fever, and they recommend them to ev
erybody. ***** Alex. Mathews,
The above pads were sent for us by Dr. Hodg

Jordan's Joyous Julep.
A Specific for Neuralgia.
TESTIMONIALS.
PKTKBSBUttO. Vs,., Jan. 20th, 1870.
John L. Jordan, Esq.~De*r Sir: So well pleased
am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes
tify to tho superior merit of your uneqtluled
preparation for NcuralgU. I shall esteem my
self happy should even one of that worst of all
classes of sufferers be fed through me to take tho
Julep. My wife has for ten (10) years been a mar
tyr to the most maliguant and persistent neural
gic torture, without being able to find any relief
except from your preparation. Bhe was relieved
by tho second dose as per directions, and has not
had a return of it for two mouths. To some I
may seem strangely sanguine about your medi
cine, but I have a right to be so. It is not rea
sonable to suppose this malignant malady would
have died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for
sustaining itself, and that too in a minute, and
tho very minute your modicino was taken. If so,
It is a most remarkable, simple coincidence, and
I prefer giving tho credit in your favor of the '
best testimony man can ever have—experience.
Vary truly yours,
JAMES T. TOSH.
Columbtjs, January 16, 1875.
Mr,Jordan:—l take great pleasure in recom
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
has produced a most wonderful relief in one o*
tho severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter
ever has had. She has been treated for it by
three skillful physicians, with very little benefit,
and used all the usual remedies with little suc
cess. 1 can with much confidence hope for a per
manent euro. It is only two days since we began
the use of it, and it is apparently of permanent
benefit. Yours, with respect,
MBS. I* I. NOBMAN.
