The Queer Nasal.

A more remarkable or unique race,
says Joseph Thomson in 'sThrough
Nasal Land,n does not exist, on the
continent of Africa-lndeed, T might
safely say in the two hemispheres. In
their physique, man ners, and customs,
and religious beliefs they are distinct
alike from the true negroes and from
the Gala and Somali. They are the
most magniticently modelled savages

fully proportioned,.. they are charac-
terlzed by the smooth and round out.
line of the Apollo type, rarely showing
the knotted muscles of the true ath-
lete. -, The women are very decently-
dressed IN bulluck's hide They wear,
by way Of ornament, from twenty to
thirty pounds ofsthick iron wire coiled
round the limbs, arms, and neck, be-
sides a great assortment of beads and
iron chains. The men wear only a
small kid skin garment round. the
shoulders and breast, that being of
somewhat more ample dimensions
among the married men. The most
remarkable distinctions charact erizing
the various epocs in the lite history Of
the Nasal. The, boys and girls up to
certain age, live with their parents
and feed upon curlled milk. meat and
grain. At the age Of IL with the girls,
and from12 to Il years with. the boys,
they are sent from the married mems
kraal 10 one in which are only young
unmarried men and women. There
they live till they are married. AT
this stage the men are warriors, and
their sole occupations is CATTLE lifting
abroad and amusing themselves at
home. The young women attend to
the cattle, build the huts, and perform
other necessary household duties.
Both sexes are on the strictest diet.
Absolutely nothing but meat and milk
pass their lips. Spirits, and beer, to-
bacco or vegetable food are alike es-
,cheWed. So peculiar, indeed. are they

Moreover, the meat and. milk are never
taken together. For several days the
one is the sole diet, to be followed BY
the other after partaking ola power

pleasant does the Nasal warrior find
this life that he seldom lnarries until
he has passed the prime of life, and
begins to find his strength decline,

lo-hide shield. the knot kerry, q are
then laid aside. For q month he
Sdons the dress Of an unmarried woman,

DIED.

LEAvELL-On Monday evening, Sept.
28th. at her residence in this place, Miss
MATTE A. LEAvELL.
Her disc ase was consumption, from which
she had been long sufferer, but her death
is believed to have been hastened by an at
tack of the prevailing dengue fever. She
was lady of very high character and supe-
rior mind. A large number of her friends
and neighbors followed her remains to the
grave. The funeral exercises were conduc-
ted by Rev. Mr.. Arnold, pastor of the Bap-
tist church. assisted by Rev. Mr.. Harris,
Methodist near neighbor of the deceased,
who feelingly testified to her patience, r, g.
ignation and unfailing Christian faith.
Much sympathy is felt for her bereaved BROTH
or and sister.
For there is hushed on earth
A voice of gladness-there is yelled face,
Whose parting leaves dark and silent place
By the once joyous hearth.
A smile hath passed, which filled its home
with light,
A soul, whose beauty made that smile 80

DIR PUBLIC SCHOOLS

win open on Monday, tho 5th inst The
main building Is undergoing repairs, and
the house Of Mr.. Basoom Lyell has been Sc
cured for the primary department which is
TO be taught by Mrs. Duncan. New desks
have been ordered. and are expected soon,
meantime chairs will DO used. In spite Of
tho croakers, We believe an suspicious ca
reer awaits our Free Schools. and that In u
few years all opposition will be silcnced and
they will be the pride of our little city.
To the San Marcos Free Press:-Did you
never publish a saloon advertise ment and
did You not for certain moneyed consider
alton Join tho prohibition partyS We don't
say you did,-we only ask you II you did
|not-Kyle News
We answer;
I. In years past before we had duly
considered the wrongfullness of the prac-
tice, we have, to very limited extent, pub
lished saloon notices.
2. We have never received cent TO in
duoe us to join the prohibition party, or
from that party SINCE.
We are not aware that our advocacy Of
prohibition has materially affected our in-
terest or patronage. II any difference, il
has been to our disadvantage, because the
whisky interest is better united than the
opposition, and far more in the habit of
spending money in and Of their cause. We
hope yet to see the friends Of temperance
as united and active in defence Of the right
as their opponents are in advocating the
wrong. ..-..
Among the certiiers TO the unexceptionable
character of the Kyle News, published in
Its last issue, we find the names of two
ministers of the gospel and the principal
and two leading assistant teachers Of Kyle
Seminary. When it is recollected that the
News, TO say the least, is an organ Of the
saloons, advertising them by the column
and putting them frequently editorially;
that It's editors chosen companions are sa-
loon keepers and their disciples; and that
he is himself an Incorporate man; this en-
dorsement of his paper by preachers and
teachers of the young, is most remarkable.
But we are glad to remember, by way Of
contrast and rebuke the record of the late
Father Morril, and the course of the Bap-
fist Herald of to-day.
