Besides the scientific results of the trip, Schweinfurth has several oddities of travel to relate. One of th» races he visited was the Niams-Niams, who are de. seribed as occupying the country between the fourth and sixth degrees of northern latitude. These gentlemen were formerly reputed to be the owners of tails, but it appears that the caudal appendage is, like some of the accessories of civilized fashion, simply an elegant ornament. The Mon- buttos are also 2 remarkable people, of pronounced Epicurean tastes, their favorite delicacy being the brains of their human Schweinfurth found it rather diffi, cult to get victims. an entire skull fer his collge- tion, as they were usually smasiied in for the purpose of extracting the dainty con- tents. our botanist encountered, the Akka carry off the palm. the pigmies supposed to be referred to in Herodotus and other old writers. When Schweinfurth first dropped among them in the dominions of Munza, King of the Monbuttos,he fancied that he was surround. ed by a troop of impudent boys; but he was informed that they were men and war.

From active and suc- cessful husbandm the soil : uv and tillers of they have been transformed into merchants and money-lenders. They seem to have wholl lost that love for na and that igricultural skill that made Palestine a land of plenty. In Babylonia and Persia, under a comparatively gentle rule they were rather farmers than traders. Even late in the Roman period, and probably until near the sixth century, they were chiefly an agri= cultural people, ture The Talmud abounds in allusions to the cultivation of fields and gerdens, of oil, wine, and wheat, fruit and flowers. Its nice and varied rules of cons duct relates chiefly to the people of rural districts rather than of the cities. When the great schools of Babylon and Pumbedis tha were flourishing, and the vivid intellect of the Israelites was expanding into a liter- ature of commentators and professors, the race was marked by an intense love for the Oriental lands they cultivated jut when the universal prosecution fell upon them, when they were hunted from Babylonia and Persia, and began that remarkable series of wanderings from city to city, and from realm to realm, that has lasted for more thana thousand years, the manners of the race changed. They became a nation of traders, Industry, thrift, learningnd rare acutness they never lost, but they were never again to become peaceful tillers of the soil. They were forced to snatch opportunities of gain from the midst of the wanderings. They became the most acute and untiring of traders. There wares and their profits were such as could be most easily handled and secured, They supplied the barbarous princes of Germany with the most costly drugs and spices of the East. Theydealt in jewels that they could easily conceal or swallow, and in Oriental cloths that were of priceless value. They were the most active slave-traders of the Middle Ages, and the Church vainly heaped its maledictions ou the Jew who should dare to purchase Chris- tian slaves. Their capital im money pro- bably grew from age to age. They were the common money-lenders of the early period. The Jews seemed to have concen trated the wealth of the Middle Ages among t'emselves; they lent t ew money at an enormous interest and upon ample security ; they accumulated immense fortunes, which they were obliged to hide from their perse» cutors in an aspect of extreme poverty. Sut their home was never again te be amidst the soft landscapes of Babylonia and Persia ; and erowded together in a mise: ible Ghetto, lived apart accursed and forssken in the walled, fortified, and secure cities of * est- ern Europe, they counted th irsecret gains and sometimes displayed im ts a obsevre dwellings a suspicious and ©: jental splendor, Their daughters were ¢ id in the rich silks of Persia, und shone with the gold and gems of the East. —Eveent J.awience,in Harper’ s Magazine, for June. sie as Se
