me that to the south of Kafa and Susa
there is very sultry and humid country,
with many bamboo woods, inhabited by
the race called Dokos, who are no bigger
than boys Of ten years old THAT is only
four feet high, They have dark olive
colored compilations, and live in COM

ing neither houses, temples, nor holy
trees, like the Gallas, vet possessing
something like an idea of higher being
called Yer, to whom in moments of
wretchedness and anxiety they pray
nor in the erect posture, but reversed,
with the head on the ground, and the
feet supported upright against tree or
stone. In prayer they say; eyer, if
thou dost really exist, why dost thou al
low us to be slain? we do not ask thee
for food and clothing, for we live on ser
pents, ants and mice. Thou hast made
US to be trodden under foot Z" Dokos
have no chief, no laws. no weapons they
do not hurt They do not till the groupd,
but live solely on fruits, roots, mice, SER
peuts, ants, honey aud the like, climbing
trees and gathering the fruit like mon
keys, aud both sexes 90 completely max
ed. They have thick protruding lips,
fat noses the hair is worn by the women

hands and feet are allowed to grow like
the tallons of vultures, and are used in

Whereas by an act of Sd March, 1853,
the postage upon all letters, except such
as are entitled to pass free, between plac-
es in the United States, is required to Ee
prepaid and whereas the Department,
through courtesy has hitherto, at consid,
cradle labor and expense; notified the par
ties addressed, in all instances in which
the writers failed to pre- pay, that their
letters would be forwarded on receiving
the postage due thereon; and whereas;
instead of diminishing, the number of
such letters continues to increase, thus
showing that the omission to prepay is
intentional; it is, therefore, ordered that
from and after the first day of November;
1860, all such unpaid letters are to be sent
to the Dead-Ietter-O Office, to be disposed
of in like manner as other dead-letters:

A non-political friend in one of the
rural districts of Pennsylvania writes to
the n. Y. Tribune, in the Course of a
business letter, as follows:
"Pennsylvania has spoken decisively
in her late election. The politicians Of
the Republican party itself are astounded
at the result. The victory is SO great
because the people achieved it, indepen-
IDENTIFY of the politicians. You cannot
imagine how deep feeling exists among
the people. Thousands who heretofore
did nothing more than merely vote, went
among their friends and neighbors, and
talked earnestly with them over the great
issues of the day. There is determine;
ton in the minds of these men to make
themselves felt, that was never known
before. Depend upon it, Pennsylvania
will give majority of $4,000 for Lincoln
over all the opposition combined

METEoRs FALLING INTO THE Sun
On the 1st of September last, distiH-
guished astronomer, Mr.. Carrlngtou, had
directed his telescope to the sun, and
was engaged in observing his spots, wheH
suddenly two intensely luminous bodies
burst into view on its surftGe. They
moved side by side through space Of
about 5000 miles, first increasing in
brightness, then fading away; III five
minutes they had vanished This re-
markable phenomena was witnessed and
confirmed by another observer, Mr.
Hodgson, at Iighgate, who, by happy
coincidence, had also his telescope di-
rectcd to the great luminary at the same
instant. 1t may be, therefore, that these
two gentlemen have actually Witnessed
the process of feeding the sun, by the
fall of n,eteoric matter.
