to see him. 81 wanted to see you," said the
General wanted to see you, Vallandigham,
to see whether you had rascaPs face" Then
changing the subject rather abruptly-and
bringing down the fore finger of his right
hand in that rapier-like style which is a con-
spicuous feature of his gesticulation when he
is in terrible earnest-he said VaIlandigham
don't you come back here. If-you-do-Val-

They Nav BE the Missing Link.

In Sumatra there is very singular race
called the Kubus, who are too shy to mix with
the other races Of the island, and dwell in the
recesses of the forests They are looked on as
interiors by the Malays and thought to be
little better than beasts. Such is their shyness
that they will never willingly face stranger.
Their trade with the Malayans is consequently
carried on in strange manner The trader
announces his arrival by beating gong, and
then retires from the place of rendezvous.
The Kubus approach, put their forest treasures
on the ground, beat a gong, and retreat. The
trader returns and lays his commodities down
in quantities sufficient. as he thinks, for the
purchase of the goods on sale. Then he retires,
and the Kubus reappear and consider the bar
gain. And so. after more Withdrawals and
approaches and gong beatings, the respective
parties come to an understanding, and carry
off independently their bargains. The Kubus
in their wild state do not bury their dead.
They live snakes, grubs, fruits, and the
flesh of any deer or pigs they can Stay. They
are skilful spearmen, and throw stones with
marvellous accuracy. They know Of no state
after death. In some physical respects they
assimilate closely to the anthropoid apes.
