WILD MAN IN AFRICA.

There is another inhabitant of the woods by the Gaboon River, more to be feared, than the African boa it is the wild man of the woods—not the ourang-outang, though an immense ape—always acting in the offensive, and ready to attack man. Tho bones of his extremities are lo/iger thari those of an ordinary sized, full grown man. I have examined them here, and whilst contemplating the skull, the jaws, and terrible apparatus, really experienced a sort of shuddering. The canine teeth arc upwards of two inches long, and of proportionate bulk. There is a ridge running from the top of the nose backwards over the crown of the head to this is affixed a muscle, by which the living animal draws backwards and forwards a most frightful crest of stiff hairs when enraged, or proposing to inflict injury, he erects them and draws the crest forward over his largo® eves, and utters most hideous yells at tho same time.

Nothing seems to intimidate him. Some-, times he advances slowly with boughs of trees broken off for the purpose of concealing his approach and attack, and suddenly grasps the legs of a human being, bring him instantly to the ground, breaks his bones by blows of his mighty arms and hands, and tears the flesh by his monstrous teeth. The native huntsman who goes in starch or meets him, whilst pursuing less formidable animals, has learned that the safest way to engage is to act quite cn tho defensive to let the monster draw near when he will immediately seize the end of the muzzle of the gun, (ready cocked and presented,) between his teeth. Instantly it must be discharged if the man either delays till the ape has compressed the barrel so as to close it, or fails to give a mortal wound, his doom is sealed.

THE FIRST "KNOW NOTHING."—It has been generally supposed that the notorious rascal, "Ned Buntline," was the first ono who started the Know Nothing order, but it is a mistake the credit mHst be given to' a very different personage. The principles of the order, too, are very old being promulgated in the United States nearly a century ago. The Know Nothings of tho present day, who profess to be such great
