looking, but the brow receded, the chin
and ears were prominent-in short, she
reminded me of nothing so much as a
very handsome monkey. She might
have been the missing link.
The lady was pointing at her with her
hand. 'How dare you9" she said. Are
you going to disobey me again2 Have
you forgotten what 1 told you, .Babyan

''Ah! all" grunted the woman, who
seemed literally to curl and shrivel up
beneath her anger. "Don't be angry

Then, dream or no dream, / deter

well as my swollen tongue would allow;
.'give me water."H
'.Ah, he nvesi" cried the beautiful

Oh! that drink of cool, pure waterl
never had tasted any thing so delicious.

from me almost by force.

turned and crept to where Tota lay
by the side Of Indaba-zimbi. 1t was i'm
possible to say if they were dead or
=swooning. The lady sprinkled Tota's
face with the water, which 1 watched
greedily, for my thirst was still awful,
while the woman Hendrika did the same
office for Indaba-zimbi Presently, to
my vast delight, Tota opened her eyes
and tried to cry, but could rot, poor
little thing, because her tongue and
lips were so swollen. But the lady got
some water into her mouth, and, as in
my case, the effect was magical. We
allowed her to drink about quarter of
a pint, and no more, though she cried
bitterly for 1t. Just then old Indaba-
;zimbi came to with groan. He opened
his eyes, glanced around, and took in
the situation.
What did I tell you, Macumazahn?"
and he seized the bottle and took long
pull at it
Meanwhile sat with my back against
the trunk of the great tree and tried to
realize the Situation. Looking to my
left saw two good horses-one bare
backed and one with rude lady's saddle
~on it By the side of the horses were
two dogs, of stout greyhound breed,
that sat watching us, and near the dogs
lay dead Airiie buck, which thew had
evidently been coursing.
'Hendrikas" said the lady, presently,
-they must not eat meat just vet. Go
and look up the tree and see If there is
any ripe fruit on it"
The woman ran swiftly into the plain
and obeyed. Presently she returned,

were restored to power, through revo-
buttons tolerated by the Republican
party, and began to prosecute their
opponents, and to hold their places by
means and practices ruinous and de-
structive to the morals of our people,
and especially when the wealthy plant
ers for pecuniary gain continued to bring
carloads of negroes into the State to
further increase the dangers they pro-
fessed to fear, all my sympathy for them
ceased.
A distinguished Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court of Mississippi, speaking
of the reconstruction period, said:
when negro domination had by these meth
DDS been established. there ensued a scene OF
incompetence, profiigacy and pillage, the like
OF which has never disgraced the annals Of an
English speaking people. 1t was wealth plum
dered by pauperism, intelligence dominated by
ignorance, America ruled oy Ethiopia At
length, when longer endurance became impos-
sible, the maddened whites burst their bonds
burst them under the forms OF law AID The
guise Of the oallot-box, since Federal power
would not otherwise permit, but by means, in
some instances certainly, which a firm believer
in the efficacy OF the ballot-box would find diff
fcult TO defend"
After deploring this condition of af-
fairs, he says: 1.-THE men of the South
