THE BOSJESMANS, OR BUSH PEOPLEf OF AFRICA.-

The line of demwention between man and the I,,wer

order of animals is very slight indeed: the American
Savage, the Hin. 00, the Aborigines of Australia, and
the .\f teat) Bushman, are all specimens of this distinc
tion, but fvom their paucity of numbers the Bosjesmana
are the most extraordinary. Even in their own country
they are comparatively curi sities of humanity; they are
dying year atter year, and the specimens now exhibiting
are the first, and probably the last of that diminished
and diminishirg species whom we shall see. Intelligence
they do possess to a certain extent, but it is the result o!'
instinct rather than of reason. They remain in this
country hut a very short time longer, and the naturalist,
as well as the phdisopher, must look on them with in
terrst. They have an infant with them which will soon
be admitted into the pale of the Christian Church by the
solemn Sticr,ment of Baptism. During the present
week they have been visited by the following distin-
guished individuals :—Mr. Baron Parke, 'Sir Robert
Peel and family; Lord anti Lady Stanley, Prince Louis
Napoleon, Vi-count and Viscountess Comber', ere, an
Duke of Newcastle and the Ladies Clinton, Mtircrisi a

DE BEAUVOIR TOWN, KINGSLAND. A public
meeting of the house proprietors and tenant of the
above district was held in the large room of the Jolly
Farmers, Southgate-road, last night, to take into con-
sideration, and endeavour to provide a remedy, for the
impassable state of the roads and footpaths during
winter. It is well known tha- this is unlike any other
district of London, there not being a piece of pavement
laid down on any part of it, and the miry state of the
roads in winter is such, that it is absolutely daegerous
for delicate persons to venture out : property is thereby
much depreciated, while the rates are equally high with
those places where the comfort of flag pavement is ex-
perienced. The chair was taken, at half- past eight
o'clock, by W. R, Ives, Esq., of Doctors' Commons, who,
in a brilliant and flcible speech, stated the object of the
meeting, and was ably followed by Messrs. Matson, Pot-
ter, Pritchard, and others, and a imputation to the High-
way Board was appointed, to represent the necessity of
due attention to the interests of this now important
portion of the parish of St. John's, Hackney. A vote
of thanks to the chairman, and Mr. Hawkins, the secre
tary, was proposed and seconded, and the meeting brok,
up at 10 P.M. There is at present in the course of
erection in Albion square a very handsome edifice,
in-
tend, d for a Literary and Scientific Institution,
.m which
will be lecture and class rooms, and library of circula
tion; such has been much wanted, and it is expected to
be opened in September. It has been the subject of con-
versation that parties building houses in this parish must
have ransacked the regions of fancy and imagination,
MS,. sacred and profane history, in search of names for
their various residences; instead of at once naming the
street and numbering it from one and upwards, each
brick erection is designated with some peculiar name.
inclinationaccording to the fancy and of the proprietor,
so that a stranger to the neighbourhood finds it a matter
of no little difficulty to find the house, it. the " villa"
of his friends. It is some time before the postmen be-
come familiarised to the beat.

Great excitement was caused on the sth in the
peaceable town of Ai. A man, named Viet,r Moreau,
had long entertained a violent hatred agairst his brother
Gu-tave, but it was hop-d that his ha-red had died away
during the period he had served in the army. On his
return to Epernay, however, he showed that his senti-
ments had undergone no change; and he actually bought
two pistols, powder, and shot with the remainder of a
sum of money which his brother had given him, most of
which he had spent in debauchery. He then went to Al,
it is believed, with the firm intention of killing his
brother. Luckily he did not find him at home. He
then went to several cafes, and drank a great many
glasses of liquor, after which he proceeded to the him-,
of an uncle and aunt. He burst into the room, and,
without any salutation, said he was hungry. His aunt
invited him to eat, and whil-t doing so, an old master of
his, named Roger, came in, and knowing the violent di--
position in which he was, tried to calm him. " What do
you want here ? " cried the man; " begone I " and then
added, "I must put an end to this; I must kill you !"
At the same moment he tot,k a pistol, and fired it
at his uncle and aunt, but without touching them.
M. Roger again extreated him to be calm, but
the prism -r cried out, " Let me alone, or look to your-
self!" and he immediately fired the other pistol at him.
Fortunately he was not injured, and an alarm being

as he drew his .word," that it you miss me I will run
you through the hotly!" and turning to the people, he
couraaeonsly said, " Comrades, if you tae me tall, never
mind, but seize the man, to prevent him doing more
mischief." The man immediately snapped the trigger of
a pistol, but it dashed in the pan. In the twirki.rig of
an eye he presented another pistol, but he checked him
self, and said, " Why should I fire on you? I ht•ar you
no malke, and you only do your duty. Look th. re!"
