Nallolnell EoraI Mems.

An out of door religious meeting, under
the direction of the Young Mems Christian
Association, was held on Monday evening in
the vicinity of the post office, on which oc.
cason some three TO five hundred people
were addressed in earnest and well chosen
words, by Rev. Mr.. Peekham of the Free
Baptist church in this city. Several old
fashioned revival hymns were sung in true
congregational style, and with heartfelt en-
ergy. After speaking for about twenty min
utes Mr.. Peckham closed the out door exer-
cises with ferveEt and We doubt not etfectual
prayer. The audience were then invited to
assemble in the Free Reading Room, which
was Immediately filled to oserflowing, where
social meeting was held for ali hour or
more with gratifying interest to all present.
Another meeting was appointed for next Mon
day evening.

CENTRAL AFRICA PIGMIES.

The last letter Of Bayard Taylor to the
New York Tribune, from Cairo, contains the
following description Of some pgmies from
Central Africa which he saw at Cairo.
The Khedive spoke Of race Of pigmies
which had been discovered in the very heart
Of Central Africa, beyond the land of the
Nyam- Nya ans, and advised us to look at two
natives of the tribe which had recently
reached Cairo. On leaving the Palace Of
Abdeon, therefore, we drove Immediately to
the Palace Of the Nile, near Boulak, where
they are now kept. On making inquiry, the
soldiers in the inner court Immediately
pointed out two small boys apparently,
wearing the fez, and dressed in jackets and
trewsers of white wool. / shULid nave taken
them for children Of some Ethiopian tribe at
the first glance, and was not satisfied, until
after close inspection, that one of them was
full grown man.
DIR. Schweinfutth saw some natives Of the
tribe among the Nyam- Nyams, but did not
reach their country, which lies beyond that OF
the latter, and therefore south of the Eaua-
tor-probably from 800 TO 500 miles west of
the central part of Albert Nyanza. But
after Schweinfurths return the veteran
Italian traveller Mana, whose name, carved
upon a tree near Fatiko, will be remembered
by all readers of Spekes and Bakers mar
rztives, started on a new journey of explora-
ton from which he was destined never to re.
turn. On the 9Th Of November last some
boats reached Khartoum with the journals
and collections of Mana, who died in a
country called Monbootoo. These were taken
by the Governor Of khartoum, and three
pigmies, who were supposed to be slaves,
were temporarily imprisoned. When the in
teiiixsnce reached Cairo, the Khedive ordered
Miani's papers and collections to be given to
the Italian Consul and the pigmies to be sent
TO him. One Of them, woman, died on th.
way; the other two reached here few weeks
ago. They are the first of their race which
have ever been seen outside Of Central

WASHIAGTON MATTERS.

Mr.. Pratt, Chairman of the Senate Com
mittee on Pensions, will report this week a
bill relating to pensions for soldiers in the
war of 1912. The bill will, it is understood,
extend the benefits of the pension laws to all
the survivors of the last war with Great
Britain, without regard to the length of their
time of service, and will restsre to the rolls
those whose names were dropped on account,
of actual or supposed aid to or sympathy with
the rebellion. Mr. Prat, will make speech
on the subject.
The reduction Of the public debt for the
month of April, 81 9G5. 45l ~, as shown by
the debt statement just issued, is considered
by the Treasury Department "a very crafty
ing exhibit of the condition of the national
finances; especially so in view ofthe fact that
during that period the Treasury was called up
on for the large amount of about SO 200, 900 for
other purposes than ordinary expenses of the
Government nearly $500, 600 having been
paid for cotton seized during the war under
judgments rendered by the Court of Claims,
and about the same amount for deficiencies
in the postal revenues mail steamship service,
quarterly postage, etc. The revenues for the
month came fully up to the estimates made
last November.
