4 Queer People, Chambers Journal,
discussing recent book of missionary
travels in Africa, thus alludes to one of
the tribes which aro found in that terra
ancOgnitd:
''But tho strangest of all are tho
stories told of tho Dokos, who live
among the moist, warm bamboo woods
to tho south of Kaffa and Susa. Only
four feet high, of dark olive color,
savage and naked they have neither
fire nor human food. They live only
on ants, mice and serponts, diversified
by Il few roots and fruits they let their
nails grow long, like talons, tho better
to dig for ants, and tho moro easily to
tear in pieco their favorite snakes.
They do not marry, but live indiscri-

and tho mother thinks no moro about
it. Tho Dokos are invaluable as

Tho slavo-hunters hold up bright
colored clothes as soon rs they como TO

these human monkeys live, and tho
poor Dokos cannot resist tho attrac-

They crowd round them, and arc taken

In slavery they are docile, attached,

lovo for ants, mice and surponts, and II
habit of speaking to Yer with their
heads on tho ground, and their heels in

power, to whom thoy talk in this conf

Mr.. Aspinwall had been dead pany

lcave her only daughter dependent
upon the bounty of friends.
She had but few relations ln the
world. and only one who was very near.
This person was Mrs. Sumacr, her hus-
band's sister, who, although quite an
omiable woman, was far from possessing
those traits of character which the
nious. devoted mother desired should
ever surround her child. But after
careful consideration, she concluded 1t

trusting that its innate qualities and
sweetness would not be ruined by neg

reflect upon and bcautify all that it
surrounded. She therefore sent for
her sistcr-in-law to como and attend
her dying couch, and in few short
weeks she had ceased TO be of earth,
and the frail tenement returned to the
dust from whence it sprung. The
weeping Myra then left her home in the
ouiet village of Staunton, for II resi-
dence with her stylish aunt in the great
capitol of our Union.
Itwas hard ordeal for the young heart

Yes, the young wifo began in the
right way. The little ball of shining
twine gradually increased in size as
the thrifty hand spun and wound until
it became too largo to clasp. Tho

their example, and she is driven, like
Eve, from the social paradise. IF even

President gave away the bride, and
amid the congratulations of the most dis
tinguished of the land, the young cou
pie left for a short tour to the South.
When they returned, Mrs. Sumner
issued cards for large reception, and
as it was to be e. stylish one, she was
very desirous that Mrs. Moore should
appear elegantly attired. Sho knew
her plain taste and convictions on
extravaganza, for she had selected her
marriage wardrobe with great economy;
so she toolz-one of her own handsome
head dresses. composed of white ostrich
plumes, and persuaded Myra to wear it
together with splendid brocade robe,
on that particular occasion.
Not long after this Mr.. Moore rented

Myra went simply dressed, caring
nothing for the body's adornment, but
seeking always, in all her walks in
society to adorn the mind. The next
day her husband asked her:
why she observed such plainness
the last evening-that her white plumed
head dress would have added much to
the beauty of her attire
She told him that the article he spoke
of belonged to her aunt.
He then presented her with sum of
money, telling her to purchase one of
the same description for herself.
She took it, and smilingly said that
she would do everything that would
insure tho happiness of one she loved

A week after, he wanted to know if
the feathers were bought. Myra replied
that they were, and that they were up

COLLECTING SOUTHERN Revenue. - A
Washington correspondent of the N. Y.
Post has the following:
"The administration, I learn to day,
has had the question of the collection Of
the revenues at the South most fully un-
der consideration, and does not anticipate
any immediate diminution of the reve-
nues. Orders have been sent south and
West to seize upon all goods brought into
the loyal States through the seeded ports.
This, it is expected, will put an end to
smuggling free goods into the free States !;
for the risk Of con6scation is too great for
the importer to take. In case the south
ern confedcracy is acknowledged, the New
York merchant will still sell his imported
goods to the Southern buyer, at the same
goods are now sold to Canadian traders.
By similar arrangement, the New York
importer will sell his goods to Southern
merchants out of the warehouse, they pay
ing no duties here"

A SOUTHERN WEAKNESS. A southern
correspondent of the Post thus unwilling
ly sets forth the unfailing characteristic
of the section and class that has so long
furnished the chief leaders and strength
of their party:
"The Southerner is not used to having
his will thwarted. Our cotton planting
friend is accustomed to think that what
he believes right IS right, and to order it
done forthwith; and if it is not done then
an overseer is to be discharged or a niger
thrashed, certain ! A discipline which,
whatever we may think of its working in
political affairs, is found to be necessary
and wholesome one on plantation"

COERcING A MAIL AGENT.-Thc Lynch
burg (Va.) Republican has the following
paragraph: Mr.. Crook, Lincoln's mail
agent on the Alexandria road, made his
first trip up on Saturday, and in passing
Charlottesville was waited upon by CON-
mittee of citizens, who informed him in
the politest manner possible, that he had
better throw up his commission and re-
tire from public service, or he would be
dealt with according to his deserts as a
Black Republican, who would never be
permitted to scatter his foul teachings
over Virginian soil. Mr.. G. thinks eds
erection the better part of valor," consent
cd to resign on his return to Alexandria,
and he was permitted to pass. 1t is also
stated that the said gentleman, upon reach
ing this city Saturday evening, made a
castle of his mail car, from which he was
afraid to bulge and come out in the city,
but remained safely ensconced in it until
his departure yesterday morning, sending
the mail up by substitute.

EXTENSIVE MAIL RoBBERY.-In the
month of October last, the mail which
was made up at Falmouth for Boston, was
robbed. Among the plumber were pack
ages containing $4,000, in bills and
$25, 900 in drafts and notes. which were
being sent to the Suffolk Bank. The mat
ter created great excitement among those
interested. by whom it was kept pro-
found secret, and Mr.. Holbrook the secret
mail agent at once set at work to unravcl
the affair, and we understand that the
matter is quite likely to be cleared up.
Among the bills taken was one of $500
on the Canal Bank, Portland, which has
recently come to light, which fact, to-
gether with others, in possession of the
government, have led them to suppose that
the mail was robbed before leaving Mon
ument depot.-Ne,0 Bedford Standard.

Affairs in Texar.

The New York Herald gives the follow
ing version of affairs in Texas, derived
from United States officers who arrived at
New York in the Steamer Daniel Webster
on Saturday:
"The Texans were coming in in small
numbers to occupy the forts and stations
evacuated by the United States troops,
but it is generally believed they will con-
centrate their forces for the purpose of as
sailing the Mexicans The Indians are
already sweeping the frontiers, driving off
horses and cattle and breaking up the set
Elements. Cortinas is reported to have
between two and three thousand men as
sembled, and is actively engaged in pre-
parations for making an attack on the
Texans.
The number of men already assembled
is thought to be very much exaggerated,
and five or six hundred, it is thought
it would be much nearer the mark. The
Texans will, however, have employment
for all their forces as the Indians have
already committed depredations within
one hundred miles of Brazos. All along
the Rio Grande border the people are in
favor of the Union. At Brownsville on
the day of election, there were about nine
hundred Texan Rangers present, who con-
trolled the election, and only few of the
most influential and wealthy citizens cast
their votes without being inundated by
these men.
Much dissatisfaction has been caused
by the statements which have appeared in
some of the New York papers that the
United States troops stationed in Texas
had become in some measure dcmoralized,
and unwilling to fight. They are all
so say their officers-strong Union men,
and will fight for the Union should they
ever be called upon to do so.
When the Daniel Webster reached Key
West they found the people very much ex-
cited, and apparently not inclined to sup
ply them with fresh water; but finding
that the troops were determined to take
by force if necessary whatever supplies
were needed, they complied with their re-
quest, although with very ill grace"
