The South and Nation.

Under the above head the Nash
vile Banner talks some good hard
sense as follows:
ALREADY a number of Southern
newspapers are beginning to say
that it would not be expedient to
urge the election of Southern Demo-
crat as Speaker of the next House.
This is all fol-de-rol and nonsense.
1t is expedient to elect a Southern
Democrat Speaker if he be competent
for the position. We get tired Of this
everlasting obtrusion of sectional
bar between Southern men and
National honors. 1t is high time to
put an end to this apologize posing of
the South. If the South continues to
give tacit endorsement of the idea
that her sons must still do pennance
by retaining from any political COM
petition that might prejudice the
North and embarrass the party, the
ban will never be removed by the
North. The solid South, without
which the Democracy of the North
would be powerless, has a right to
demand political recognition in Con-
gress and in the national Democratic
convention. 1t may not be best pol
icy in given instance to urge man
for a place from any section or State,
but if a man from the South be not
pressed for any position, let the rea-
son not be given that lit will en-
barrass the party" to present his
name because he is from the South.
1t is time to get rid of clam and
crawfish politics."

Oldest People on the Earth.

Mr.. Stanley found them in the very
heart of the great Dark Continental
race Of queer little people not more
than four feet high. They are the
oldest race known, and from earliest
times they have never gone away
from their homes-little stay-at
homes we might very well call them.
Near a place called Avetiko, on the
Ituri River, his men found the first
pair of these tiny people squatting in
the midst of wild Eden, and peel
ing plantains. The men carried them
to the explorer Gin the same spirit"
he says, "as they would have brought
me big hawk moth for inspection.
AS they stood trembling before me,
| named the man Adam, and the
miniature woman Eve. Poor little
things Their faces said clearly as
they looked at one and the other of
us, where have these big people
come from? Will they eat us?'
There were some nervous twitchings
about the angles of the nose, and
quick uplifting of the eyelids, and
swift, searching looks to know what
fate was in store for them" You
may be quite sure fears of the little
couple were quite groundless, and
they met with kindness of treatment
from Stanley, who describes them as
follows: "Little Adam was four feet
high, and Eve little less. He may
have weighed about eighty-five
pounds; the color of his body was
that of half~baked brick, and, a:
far as intelligence was concerned, hi
was certainly superior to any black
man in our camp. The mysteries o
woOdcraft, for instant, he knew bet
ter than any of US; he knew
what wild fruits were whole
some, and what furgi were poisonous
He could have given us valuable les
sons how to find our way through
, the forest. The little man talked
+ very briskly by signs,and gave proof
of his quick understanding" Afte
this, Stanley and his men passet
through about one hundred village
inhabited by this ancient and tin.
folk, who have been able to hold thci
own land for over fifty centuries.
