THE PARADISE OF SrRoNG-MINDED WoMEN.-The
adventurous African explorer, DR.. Livingstone,
states In recent letter. that he has found nothing
more remarkable among the highly intelligent
tribes OF the Upper Sambesa than the respect uni
versally accorded to women by them. MANY of the
tribes are governed by a female chief. f'If YOU
demand anything of man." remarks the intrepid
explorer, che replies, Il will talk to my wife about
it. II the woman consents your demand is grant
ed II she refuse you will receive negative reply.
Women vote in all the public assemblies. Among
the. Bechanas and Kaffrs, the men swear by their
father; but among the vertabe Africans, occupy
ing the centre of the continent, they always swear
by their mother. If young man falls in love
with maiden of another village, he leaves his
own and takes up his dwelling in hers. He is
obliged to provide in part for the maintenance of
his mother-ln-law, and to assume respectable at
titude, sort of semi-kneeling, in her presence
