Stanley. the Explorer.

Mr.. Henry M. Stanley is doing a good
work for geographical science and
humanity by exploring the heart of
Africa, and the proprietOrs of the Herald
deserve the credit of sending him on an
expedition of SO much difficulty and
peril and Importance. He is thorough
American, with great ingenuity and
stiffness and energy and unconquerable
push, which carries a man through all
obstacles and makes him invincible.
His manners are coarse enough, and his
Overbearing ways and offensive self-con-
ceit cost him the respect of the English
Swans and brought him into ill-repute
almost everywhere. He seems To care
far more to exhibit himself and his ex-
PLOTS than to gain information. He has
little Of the prudence and patience and
modest selfabnegation of Livingstone,
and in the quality of cool courage is far
inferior to Baker and Spoke. But in i'm
petuosity and sheer dare-devilism he ex-
cells them, and the graves that mark his
path show what stuff he is made of. But
the pioneers of civilization are usually
hard-headed If not hard.hearted, and It
Is easy to forget the man in his uses, and
rejoice at the results Of an expedition
that displays commendable enterprise on
one hand and indomitable energy on the
other. Africa must be explored before
it is colonized, and the sooner this
pioneer work is done the quicker that
great continent will be won to the uses
Of civilization and humanity.-New York

A Very Ancient Wall In Mississippi.

About eighteen miles from Port Glib
son and one mile from Brandywine
Springs, on the place. of Mr.. O'Qnn, the
existence OF great number of blocks of
cut stones has been known for an indef-
mite time, and the people in the neigh.
borhood have used them for props for
their houses. Mr.. James Gage, Jr., went
out there a few days ago to explore, and
had a specimen stone brought into town.
1t is about three feet long by twenty
inches square, resembling in shape bar
of soap. 1t is probably native sand
stone. Mr.. Gage took this block from
beneath the roots of large pine tree. 1t
formed a portion of a wall about twenty
feet broad on the top, which Mr.. Gage
traced for distance Of two hundred and
fifty yards. The inference that one
would naturally draw from this super
fetal view is that this must have been a
city wall, but deep exploration might
show it to be portion Of fort, temple
or other building. Any way, its anti
guilty is probably immense, antedatine
