auts. which invaded a pantry, evidently by
wav of the seal jape connecting a water
tloset with the sewer, by scattering pow
dered camphor on the shelves and wherever
they harbored. In three days there was
nut one to be seen.
Abyssinian Slaves.
The Abvssinian girls are remarkably
j.rettv. with large eyes and delicately-shaped
f utiuvs. These girls are brought down
I'n.m the Cialla country by the slave-dealers
ir-'in Abvssiniai). That beautiful country,
which, had we not wantonly deserted it,
inHit have become of great importance, is
now a prev to anarchv. The opposing
tribes arc only too happy to sell their le
inale prisoners to the Arab slave-traders.
These enple bring down the young girls
in gangs by various routes, but the princi
pal outlet is the lied Sea, at Massowa. A
great market is at Gallabat, the frontier
Town of Abyssinia. There I have seen
them crowded together in mat tents, wait
ing for purchasers from those commissioned
to procure slaves by the wealthy Arabs and
Turkish officials. At Gallabat a handsome
vouni: trirl of sixteen is worth about 15,
but the same girl at Cairo would fetch 40
ir .(. The Abyssinians are a much ad
vanced race compared with the negroes of
Central Africa. The women are very af
fectionate ami devoted to those who show
them kindness. Thus, as they combine
beauty with devotiou, they are much sought
for, and command a high price iu the mark
et. They are seldom purchased by com
mon jteojile, as their pnce is too high, and
they cannot earn money by bodily labor
like ncgresses, being too delicate and un
able to sustain fatigue. Although they are
generally termed Abyssinians, (llahbes
hem,) 1 have never met with a true high
caste Abyssinian girl these would be
Christians ; whereas all I have seen have
been Gallas a Mahommedau race. Many
of these poor jrirls die from fatizue on the
desert journey from Gallabat to the sea-
eoast. Those who reach Khartoum, or the
towns ol Lower Lgypt, are sold to the
wealthy, and generally take a high position
in the harems, often becoming the wives of
their purchasers. In the Soudan I have
met several charming Abyssinian ladies,
who, having married European residents.
!iave become perfectly civilized ; proving
uit race is capable ol great advancement.
