Queer People.

Chambers Journal, in discussing re-
cent book of missionary travels in Africa
thus alludes to one OF the tribes which
were found in that terra incognita:
But the slrangest OF all are the stories told
o. the Dokos: who live among the moist,
warm woods 10 the south OF Kaffa and Susa.
Only four feet high, of dark olive color,
savage and naked, they have neither houses
nor temples, neither fire nor ordinary hu-
manhood. They live only on ants, mice and
serpsnts diversified by few roots and
fruits they let their nails grow long, like
talons, the better to dig for ants, and the
more easily TO Tear 10 pieces their favorile
snakes. They do moi marry, but live the
inGscrimnate lives of animals, multiply
ing very rapidly, and with very little ma
terna instinct. The mother nurses her
child for only short time, accustoming ii
to eat ants and serpents as soon as possible;
and when il can help itself, il wanders
away where it will, and The mother thinks
no more about it. Dokos are invaluable as
slaves, and are taken in large numbers
The slave hunters hold up bright colored
cloth as soon as they come 10 the moist, warm
bamboo woods where these human monk
eys live, and the poor Dokos cannot resist
the attraction offered by suck superior
people. They crowd around Them and are
taken in thousands. In slavery they are
docile, attached, obedieut, with few wants
and excellent health. They have only one
iault-a love for ants, mice and serpents, ,and
habit Of speaking to Yer with their heads
on the grouEd, and their heels in the air
Yer is their idea of a superior power, 10
whom they talk in this comical manner
when they are dispirited or angry or tired
of ants and snakes, and longing for un-
known food The Dokos seem 10 come
nearest of all people yet discovered TO that
terrible cousin of humanity-the ape.

Obituary Fibs.

The story of a good mans life, simply
and truthfulIy related while the mold is yet
fresh upoE his grave, is one of the most in
structive and impressive lessons which the
press can present to The rising generation.
II all the obituary notices published in the

due rigor the misdeeds OF departed scoun-
drels. But The mercy of silence is all which
the utmost stretch of benevolence can right.

:ous. The Latin apoihegm de mortuus nil
niss bonum-"Speak only good of the dead"
lis in the highest degree mischievous as
social maxim. To gloss over, excuse or
justify the crimes OF bad men who have
passed TO their account, is treason TO the
living. We have 100 much of this post-aor-
TEN haltery. Death abaies nuisance-like
a faithful scavenger removes a piece of
moral puuefaction from our midst. But al
the heels o: Death comes the literary en-
balmer, intent on perfuming with the in
cense of compliment what the worms, if
they were intelligent, would disdain 10
touch. The deceased is returned upon our
hands transEgured, clothed in shining raj
meni. and surrounded With all the gIories
supposed TO belong TO tie just made perfect.
Too often the
"WelI-graced actor leaves the stage"
unhono-sd and unsung, while the exit of
the rich and bloated sensualisit is followed
by flourish Of irumpeis

Little and Precious.

Everything is beautiful when it is little
except souls little pigs, little lambs, little
birds, linle kittens, Iiue children.
Little marlin>boxes OF homes are gener-
ally the most happy and cozy; little Will
ages are nearer to being atoms OF shater-
ed Paradise than anything we know Of
Little fortunes bring The most contentmert,
and little hopes the least disappointment.
Little words are the sweetest TO hear,
and little charities ay the fastest, aud stay
the longest on the wing Little lakes are
the stillest, little hears the fullest, and lit
tie farms the best titled little books are the
most read, and lille songs are the dearest
loved
And when nature would make anything
especially rare and beautiful, she makes it
little little pearls, little diamonds, ltlle
dews.
Augur's is model prayer. but then il is
little prayer, and The burden of the petl-
ton is for little. The sermon on the Mount
is little, but the least dedication discourse
was an hour. The Roman said Ueni Uidi
piei-l came, ] saw, conquered-bul dis
patches now a-days are longer than the
battles they tell OF
Everybody calls that little that they love
best upon eauh. We once heard a good
sort OF a man speak Of his little wife, and
we lancied she must be perfect bijou of a
wife. We saw her she weighed two hun.
dred and ten we were surprised. But
then il was no joke the man mean; it. He
could put his wife in his heart, and have
room for other things beside aud whai
could she be but little
We rather doubt the stories of great ar
gosies OF gold we sometimes hear OF, be
/ cause Nature deals in littles, almost alto
gether. Life is made up of Titles /; death il
what remains OF them all day is made uI
of little beams, and nigh. is glorious will
! little stars.
Aultum in pdrUo-much in liltle-is tn,

Life in Switzerland.

The taste and skill oil the Zurichers in the
mechanic arts is not less decided, and the
hmm of industry is heard literally in all her
borders. The manufactures are not crowd
ed into one corner of great city, but oc-
cupy the leisure hours of those who live in
the country. Especially is tins the case in
the weaving OF silk. All those beautiful
fabrics, which now equal those of any part
of the world, are produced in the cottages
scattered over hill and dale, and by those
who perhaps work in the field in the sum-
mer and weave silk in the winter, or de-
vote the leisure hours of every season 10
this light and tasteful labor
First, you must see the weavers, who
wear white linen cap ornamented with
glass beads on both sides, and lied under
the chin with a velvet ribbon. A short,
blue jacket, with light blue bodice, on
which appears the letter v, wrought or
formed with colored velvet ribbon. What
the letter signifies we do not know, and
they do not know themselves.
The house is of two stories, built first oil
,imbers, aud then wall of course bricks OIL
stones, covered with plaster On the frs
floor are sitiing-room, two small rooms
and kitchen. These are finished with
panels, painted light green, looking beau
iifnlly neat The most conspicuous objec
is the great stove of potter's work, veneeres
