Anew People Discovered In Africa.

In the Southwestern portion of Afica
is a tract of about 300 miles in breadth,
from North to South, and between 400
and 500 in length, from East to West,
iaiI down on the maps as Herero Land
or Damara Land. 1t extends from the
Cunane river, on the North, to the
Walfisch bay, on the South, and from
theacoast to Lake Ngami, in the interior.
Very few Euroreans have visited it;
three elephant hunters only, between
1867 and 1864-Anderson whose works
on Stake Ngami, &C., are so we'll Known;
Green aud Smuts. Anderson vas so
much pleased with the country that he
purchased large tract of land there,
and raised some thousands of cattle. He
died there in the early part of the pre-
sent year.
There are two races inhabiting the
county, the Bechuanas, who occupy
somes kraals or. villages in the Central
and Nerthern part, but who are in a

forcibly pmarks: - ca - -
The pndition os i'll ts,s ssoM Southern s Ssaes, e
at, the pesent. time is full of promise.
They sesl to have fairly tided over their
industrial hud political troubles, and the
futuere is bright with the promise Of a
high, and We trust, enduring prosperity.
Another bod cotton crop, of which the
Indication appear to be the most favor
able, willplace the in position which
even the Northern States may envy.
The SouthSn people, fortunately for
themselves, hve had no credit for seve-
raj years pas and have therefore no
debts at the present time. They have
been forced tolivo economically, and de-
pend entirely upon their own resources,
while the No,herners, as rule have
been extruvagat aud wasteful. 1t is
probable that j the event of the occur
renee of the financial panic which some
persons regard as imminent, the South
ern people woud feel the shock much
less kccnly, ant recover from it much
more rapidly than some of the more
wealthy pd apparently more prosperous
Northery States.
The condition of the cotton market at
the present time indicates that no ma
terial reduction is likely to occur in the
present prices Of the great staple. The
supply of cotton in both England and
J the United States is scarcely adequate to
the requirements of consumers during
the interval that elapses before the new
crop begins to come forward. The cable
quotations of 124d, for middling up
lands at Liverpool, is fortune for the
Southern planter. That there will be
no important reduction from this price
is apparent from the evident inadcguacy
of all abe cotton fields in the world to
supply the demands for consumption.
The supply is falling off from India in
spite of all tho efforts of England to
stimulate production in that region The
South, for series of years to come, will
be the great source of cotton supply for
tho world. King cotton rs recovering
his lost throre, but he will reign hence
forth as n constitutional monarch over
frcemcn, not rs dcspot over slaves
Free labor Will ultimately vindicatc its
superiority even in the cotton field.
Nothing, then. but the contingency of
unexpected and unlookcd-io ior disasters to
the new crop can prevent the South tax
ing new start. At present, the ac-
counts of she cotton and corn crops arc
favorable, and the yield of both these
products will be largely in excess of last
year. With the prospect of plenty Of
money, and with no debts ON hand to
other successful harvest will possess the
means and capital required to stimulate
the great railroad and other industrial
that arc destined to impart to
it new impulse on the road to pros
perity.

For twelve months an epidemic has
been raging in our midst, which for
long time baf1ed the skill of our medi-
cal men and the sanitary regulations of
our city; and this smallpox, or black
plague, is GENERALLY attributed to the
Chinese. From the density of their
population and their peculiar mode of
living, they are subject to many diseases
almost unknown among the Caucasian
race, to which wc are rendered peculiarly
liable by the introduction of Chinese
into our hotels, restaurants and private
dwellings as cooks, washers and domestic
servants.

larger number of young men seem to

the betting classes with its events for
making or losing money, it is now

heretofore, but we are certain of an M
