To Make Baiky Horse DraW.-
The London Times gives remedy which
proved successful. After all sorts OF

suggested that a simple remedy used IN
India should be tried-that is, TO get a
small rope and attach it 10 one Of the fore
feet of the Stubborn animal, the person
holding The end of the rope TO advance a
few PAGES, taking with him the horses
foot, when, as matter of course, the
horse must follow. The suggestion was
at first ridiculed, but at last rope was
brought and applied as described, when

ting rid of the husband. A few nights al
forwards he and the wife seized Rodrigo
while asleep, and after binding him hand
and foot, dragged him about mile from
the house, where, placing rope around
his neck, in spite of his prayers and
shrieks for mercy, they hung him and
beat him 10 death with stick. After the
guilty parties had succeeded in killing their
unfortunate victim, they covered the body
with logs, sticks and such things.
After lapse Of nearly month, Gabri-
ell Rosales, who had been forced by threats
TO accompany the murderers and witness
their terrible deeds, moved by compunc-
tons of conscience, communicated the IN
telIipence of the horrid act 10 the coroner
of the parish. whereupon The man BreSen-
lie and his paramour Juana were arrested.
On accompanying The witness 10 the spot
which was designated by him, the body Of
the murdered man as found. The muir
derers were examined before Justice Payne
AND committed TO Jail. Since the com
mitment, Bresente has confessed his guilt.

UoRRiBLE SPECIMEN OF HUMANITY.
African travellers have spoken of
tribe of negroes who possess that orna-
mental appcndagc 50 much admired by
Lord Monboddo, a tail; but their
statements have never received cre-
dence, 1t appears, however, that a
race Of men with tails really does ex-
ist in the interior of Africa. In re-
cent sitting of the Academic des Sci>
ences, NJ. de Couret related that in
1S42 he found in the service of a friend
at Mecca one of these wretches, the
lowest, assuredly of mankind. The
creature had an exterior prolongation
of the vertebral column to the extent
Of tthree or four inches. He stated
that he belonged to the tribe of the
Ghilanes, whose territory is situated
far beyond the Sennar, who are thirty
or forty thousand in number, worship
the sun, the moon, the stars, the ser>
pent, and the sources of a great river,
(supposed to be the Nile to which
last they immediate victims. They are
verv partial to human flesh, and eat
the bodies of their enemies, of all ages
and both sexes, whom they may slay
in battle. They, however, prefer the
flesh of women and children, as more
succulent. They rarely exceed five
feet in height, are ill-proportioned, {,
with long, thin bodies, long arms, long
er and hatter hands and feet than the
rest of humankind, have the lower jaw
large and long, the forehead narrow
and excessively retreating, the ears
long and deformcd, the eyes small,
black, and brilliant, the nose large and
fat, the mouth large, the lips thick, the
teeth strong and sharp, the hair being
woolly, but not very abundant. The
man examined by M. de C"uret had
been so long in slavery as to have fer
gotten his native language but he stat
ed that Notwithstanding he had done
all in his power to subdue the savage
appetite, he was twice a week seized
with a rage for raw flesh, which his
master satisfied by giving him an cnor.
NOUS piece of raw mutton, and that if
this was not done he felt that he could
not refrain from slayng and eating a
woman or child. NJ. de Couret says
that the natural dispositions of this ami
NAL were good; that his fidelity to his
master was striking; and that he was
not without intelligence, but in the
slave markets of the East, where the
race is not unknown they are consider
ed detestabie.
