ARRIyAL OF THE AFRICA.

The steamer Africa, which arrived at Boston
on Thursday morning, brings us little news of
interest from Europe.
AS to the greatest point of interest--Sebas-
topol- nothing important has been received
concerning it up to the 9Th of April. The
Russians have maintained their position on the
Tchernaya, and were concentrating toward
Baidar.
The tone Of the British public is that of ex-
travagant adulation in regard to the visit of the
Emperor and Empress Of France, and it is very
different to that which Napoleon was treated
some years since. An official programme OF
their movements has been promulgated.
Napoleon has purchased estates in the Ro-
man territory Of Civita Nova.
With regard to the Vienna Conference, there
are various reports, but everything at present
seems at stand still. New complications are
spoken of with Prussia but of what nature is
not stated. 1t is said that Ali Pacha's instruc-
tons are to assent to the joint protectorate of
the Great Powers, but nevertheless to express
the regret that the Sultan's sovereignty was not
re-established. The question relative to indem-
nifty of the war is deferred,

Further towards The North are to be found
men living absolutely in a state of nature; who
neither cultivate the ground nor live in huts /;
who neither eat rice nor salt and who do not
associate ~ilh each other, but rove about some
woods hke Wild beasts. The sexes, meet in the
langles, % the man carries away woman from
company. When the children are old enough 10
shin Or themselves, they usually separate, nei.
ihcr one afterwards thinking OF the other AT
night they sleep under some large tree, the
branches a. which hang low. On them they
lassen the children In kind OF swing. Around
tho tree they make fire 10 keep of the wild
beasts and snakes. They cover themselves with
q piece u bark, and 10 this, also, they wrap
their childrea. II Is soh and warm, but viii
NOT keep out the rain.
These poor creatures are looked upon and
treated BY the Dayaks As Wild beasts. Hunt
ing parties 81 twenty-five or thirty 20 out and
smuse themselves with shooting at the children
IN the trees with the sampis, the same as mon
Keys, from which they are not easily disln-
gsishsd. The men taken In these excursions
are Invariably killed, aud the women commonly
spared, II they are yonng. Ii Is somewhat re-
faarkable that the children 81 these wild people
VIII mot be- sufficiently tanned 10 be entrusted
with their liberty. solgis told me he never re-
collected an instance when they did not escape
the very first opportunity, noiwibstanding many
Of them had been treated kindly for years. The
consequence Is, all the chiefs who call themselves
civilized, no sooner take them than they cut of
the foot, sticking the stump in bamboo OF
molten dArnar; their escape Is thus prevented,
aud their services In padding canoes retained.
An old Dsyak loves 10 dwell upon bis success
on these hantiag excursions; and the terror OF
the women aud children when taken, affords
fruitful theme Of amusement At all their meet
ings.
The following additional information is, how
ever somewhat unexpected. After speaking Of
the excellence Of che iron and steel Of the inte-
rior Of Borneo, and Of the extent of its manu-
factare among the Dayak tribes, Dalton con-
tinues:
.Those men whom have noticed living in a
state OF nature, building no habitations OF any
kind, and eating nothing but fruits snakes and
monkeys, yet procure this excellent iron, and
make blades sought after by every Dayak; who,
IN their hunting excursions, have ia view the
possession OF the poor creatures spear, or man
don, MS much rs his head Improbable ms it may
appear"
