English_ are on the road. I am a perfect

frightened - out of their wits by stories told
thud bY ti member of a ninth party whorled
lieen plundered of his slaves, walked offend
left me to face the terrible Mazitu with nine
Nassickhoya, .The fear which-the English
name has strtie4 - into-the -sonlssof the-slave
traders has thus been an inconvenience. I
could not go around the north erui,of the
lake for fear that my Johanna men, at sight
of danger,. would do there.hat they actually
did at the southern end, and the owners of
two dhows now on the lake kept them out
of sight, lest I should burn them as slavers,
and I. could not cross in the middle.
Rounding the Southern end, we got up
Kirk's range, and among Manganja, not yet
made'srale:fiellers. Thirivas a greartreat,
for,like all'who have • not been contamina
ted by that blight, they were Very kind,
and, having bean worried enough by. un
willing Sepoys and cowardly Johanna men,
I followed my bent by•Yeasy mitichis among
friendly, generous people, to whornl tried
to impart some new ideas in return Tor their
hospitality.
The country is elevated, and the climate
cool. One of the wonders told of us in suc
cessive villages was that we slept without
fires. ' The boys' having blankets did not
need fire, while the inhabitants, being,scan
lilp have
their huts plastered inside
and out, and even the roofs. to make, them
selves comfortable. Our progress since has
been slow from other and less agreeable
causes. Some parts have been denuded of
food-by-maraudaig-Mazith.or Zplns; we.
have been fain to avoid k these, and gone zig-
I rag. Orice nearry welkedintO the lumds
of a party,•and several times we have been
detained by rumors of the enemy in front:
January. 18137—1 mention several causes of ,
' delay. I must add the rainy season is more
potent than all, except hunger. In passing
through the Barka country we found that
food was not to be had: The Babies are
great slave traders, and have, in conse
quence, little industry. This seems to be the
chief cause of their having no food to spare:
The rams, too, are more copious than I ever
saw them anywhere in Africa; but We -
shall get on in time. February 1, 1867.-1
am in Bemba, or Lobemba, and at the chief
man's: place, which has three 'stockades,
around it, and a deep, dry ditch around the
inner one. .He seems a fine fellow, and
gave us a cow to. shinghter `-bn our arrival
yesterday.,We ae going to hold a Christ
ma's feast o ff to-morrow, as I promised the
boys a blow-out when we came to a place of
plenty. We have had preciousMtni,time
and I would not_complain If it hid not
gnawing hanger,. , Jaanyra daY,"and our
bones sticking ti "n-dagh -alor they would- 1
burst the skin. When we- were in a part
where game abobraded, I filled the pot with
a first-rate rifle given me
_by Capt. Fraser;
but-elsewbereWe had-but Very short rations
of a species of millet called "macre," which
passes the stomach almost unchanged. The
sorest grief of all:was the loss .of the•medi
cine box \vhich your friend at Apothecaries'
Hall so kingly fitted up. All other thinvil
divided asirons thc'bundlea; so lhat if one.
mrttio were lost we should not be rendered
destitute of such articles; but this I gave to
a steady boy, and-trestedThim. •
He exchanged for a march_with two vol
unteers, who behaved remarkably well, till
at last hungry Marches' throfigh dripping
forests, cold; -hungry nights, and fatiguing
days - overcame their virtue, and they made _
off with "Steady's" load—all his clothes,
our plates, dishes, much of our powder
and two guns, and it was impossible to

is besieged for small loans until he is either
