An Existing Race of pygmies.

DIR. Schweinfurth, who has Travelled
extensively in Central Africa, recently en-
tertained the Berlin geographical society
with an account of diminutiye race of
men, the Aeca, whom he takes to be the
originals of the Pygmies celebrated in Gre.
clan literature, agreeing with Aristotle in
the opinion that the Pygmies of Homer and
of llerodotus were not altogether creatures
ofthe imagination. DIR. Schweinfurth made
diligeEt inquiry wherever he went as to the
existence of dWarfish races of men. On
the upper Nile he was told of men [" not
over three feet in stature, wearing white
boards, who were skilled in elephant hunt
ing. and who sold ivory to foreign traders"
Bot it was at the court Of Munsa, king Of
the Mombuttu, that he first saw an individ-
ual of this diminutive race. " One morn
ing,o says he, the camp rung with joy
Gus shout as my people brought in curl
Gus, timid little man, the palpable
embodiment of myths which have been
current for ever so long" By means of
gifts and kind usage the Pygmy was
induced to take seat, when he was
measured and his portrait taken. He
stated that he was the head of family,
living half an hours journey from the
capital that his tribe are called Acca, and
that their country lies south of that of the
Mombuttu; that they had been con-
quered by the latter, and settled in the
neighborhood of the royal residence. His
height was one metre (thirty-nine inches),
and albeit he had pendent belly and very
slender shanks. he performed incredible
ieats of agility. On the next day several
others of his tribe, induced by the promise
oil gifts, paid our traveller visit, and thew
too were measured and had their portraits
taken. 1t is to be regretted, however, that
during the entire three weeks stay of the
doctor at Munsa's court, he never had the
good fortune to see Pygmy woman. But
why did he not 60 out to the settlement
and visit the ladies himself?
The Acca are noted warriors, notwith-
standing their diminutive stature. 1t hap
pened during Schwenfurth's stay at the
court that King Mumery, escorted by sew
eral hundred Acca warriors, paid visit to
his brother N1nnsa, bringing him a share of
the plumber taken i'll recent campaign.
These Tikitiki (men who understand war;
fought sham battles for the entertainment
Of the traveller.
The only domestic animal among the
Acca is the common barn-yard fowl, and il
is worthy of remark that an ancient mosaic
atNaples pictures the Pygmies in company
with such fowls. The Acca are much
superior morally to the Bushmen, and are
ct great service to King Munsa, who in
turn deserves the thanks OF ethnologists
for saving from extinction SO interesting a
race.-ScieafJic Miscellany, in Auglist
GafaSy.

The wonderful virtues of. Ink,

No fluid, water perhaps excepted, has
SO benefited the world as ink. 1t has been
the medium through which the great
thoughts of all the ages have been preserved
and disseminated, the discovery by which
the art preservative of all arts was made o
possibility. And yet much as has been
written on the subject, and long as it has
been experimental with, il has remained
for the present day to develop some Of its
most remarkable qualities. One night last
week a Louisville gentleman, who had
retired to rest after a light supper of soft
crabs and cucumbers, awoke in the night
with certain pains which excited his fears
of an attack of cholera. No time was to
be lost in warding off the fell destroyer.
lie sprang from his spring mattrass, and
Selling bottle of camphor, took swallow
and then vigorously rubbed the afflicted
portion of bis person with the restorative,
continuing the application after he had re-
turned to bed. He experienced prompt
relief, but, as his fright left him, it
occurred to him that his camphor
had lost its customary odor. Again he
arose, and this time turned on the gas. A
single glance at his night-shirt told the
tale. Instead of camphor he had used o
bottle of superior writing fluid.
Another discovery Of the virtues of ink
was made at Washington during the recen
heavy thunderstorm. An elderly lady, {
devout Catholic, became SO alarmed a
the severity of the electric discharges tina
she closed the windows and curtains o
her bedroom, and having made the room
as dark as possible, procured from thu
cupboard bottle of holy water, will
| which in one hand and prayer-beads in tn
other, she sprinkled the room. A
was to be expected, the storm soon ceased
and with feeling Of relief the curtain
were raised, the shutters were thrown open
and the good lady discovered the carpe
and furniture and counterpart ard wall

Every effort was made to remove the spot
and prevent the joke from leaking out, bu
in vain-the printer heard of it, and tn
