Mr.. Goldie, the naturalist, who
has passed eighteen months in New
Guinea, has, among other matters,
informed the Brisbane Courier that
his party came in contact with a
tribe Of natives in the interior
whose custom suggested to him
the probable origin Of the rumors
that have been always current Of
race Of tailed men in some re
mote corner of the globe" These
natives wear artificial tails of such
cunning construction as to entirely
mislead o casual observer. They
are entirely naked, except for the
caudal ornament, which is o plat
of grass fastened around their loins
by fine string, and depending
behind to about half way down
their legs.

Returned travellers from Russia all note the
signs of the duel in the air, for which the year
1879 is but a breathing spell. Russian pur.
chuses on large scale Of krupp guns, the war
vessels built, or to be built in this country,
the good credit which the Muscoyite has with
the Hopes, Rothsohilds and other banking
houses, are so many signs by which 10 proph-

ped the patriotism Of the Russian peoples in
the event Of another war II is not so easy 10
read this as It is to note the military prepar

or along the Volga may or may not mean that
the smothered fire is confined to a few quar-
tiers or that il has burned itself out. Ii is not
likely that any foreigner can see far enough
into the secrets Of the Police Bureau to read
this, or that any predictions as to Russian
home matters are safe to venture on. The
NihiIist conspiracy did not lose any strength
or ground, apparently, by the Turkish war,
and yet war is the game by which absolute
rulers divert their subjects from too much
dangerous thinking. On the contrary, the
blows lhht were struck Tor the oppressed
Slavs in Bulgaria, and the modicum of free
institutions that were secured to these by the
treaty Of San Stephnno and the Berlin Con.
