NeVinson '4,er1tes as follows concerning` the elave teed° in Pertu- guese Africa • " bet a year ago WaS etarting for my Walle of MO Wiles across, the Caaltee River and through the,'Hungry Country C! Angola, South of the Congo State. I had already come up from The West Coastby a roundabout route to the die- trict of Dille, and there I joined the path which has for centuries been one of the ' Chief trade roads into the interior. It is Merely "a track in most plaoes so nar- row that you have to walk Tike a na- tive, nUtting QUO foot exactly in front of the other, but it leads in almost a direct line from ,the sea near Benguela across • 4he Wray mountain belt, to the copper ranges of Katanga, and ,so to the lakes and away to the eastern sea. And this. ' little trank, which turns and tveiStS to avoid every tree stump and tuft of grass, has from time iminemortal been one of the great slave routes of the world. • SHACKLED SLAVES.' , It is so still. As I entered the Hungry Country I found .slave shackles hanging on almost every bush. They are the Wooden fetters with'which the hail& or feet, of the slave are tied at night,, or with which slaves are linked together on the march, , " The path through the Hungry Coun- try is 'strewn with bones and skulls, and I found there the fresh bodies of slaves, oome murdered, seine left to starves he - cause through fever or fatigue they had been unable to keep up with the party on the march, and in going through the Hungry Country no one waits. STOLEN OR BOUGHT. In most cases• the slaves are originally obtained by natives, who buy them on .soine charge of witchcraft,. or for debt, or for drink. Sometimes they are' kid- • napped, or captured he' raids. Some- times they are mere plunder of Portu- guese traders. They ,are brought to the so-called "emigration .agents," wtio are established at various points in the coun- try under Portuguese regulations, and are forwarded by them to the coast, where they are received by other agents, 01110Y at Benguela, but ale° at Novo Redondo and Loando. The average prioe given for emigration slaves is 216, -though I have known a man give as iamb as 225 there for a really nide- lca /Mg girl. She, however, was not re- . quered' for emigration. TO WORK ON PLANTATIONS. Large numbers, of the slaves are kept work the plantations" on the main- iand or'.other industries along the shore. But 1 wish now to speak only of the ex - :port: trade to the Portuguese islands of San Thome and Priricipe, in the, Gulf of. Guinea.' The slaves 'are ponvoyed on the •brdinary passenger steamers, which rim about once a fortnight. A day or two befoie the steamer starts they are col- lected in a public building before a Portuguese official called' the Curador. They are asked whether they are will- ing to labor - on the islands" for five yea.rs. Not the slightest attention is paid to their answer." A tin disc with a num- ber and a Uri' cylinder , containing a paper with particulars as to their names, etc., are hung rotted their neeks, and having entered the °trice as slaves, they go out as; "contracted laborers."' The planters pay from 226 to 230 for a grown slave delivered" in good condi- ' tiori.• NEVER • GO'BACK. • It -is almost 'entirely for the cultiva- tion. of, cocoa' that the slaves are re- quired, and the cocoa, trade is• now of great and increasing value. I believe it erTIOUritS to about 21,000,000 a year. And the value of the slaves is consequently so great that I think their masters try in most eases to keep them alive, Yet, as our Consul, Mr. Nightingale, said in his last , published report, the death rate, where we an check it, Is enorMous. 'Among the slaves of the Principe, one live dies every year, and. where I have been able to test the rate on San Thome, it is almost equally high. At the end of the five years the sur- viliors are ealled up in batches of about fifty before the Curador and are informed that their contract has been 'renewed for sanother term of live yfairs. They never go•back. • BRITISH INTERFERENCE. As a nation we have the right t� inter fere, In 1830 we paid Portugal 2300,000 to stop her slave trade. By the Berlin and Brussels Acts of only twenty-one end sixteen years ago, Portugal bound terse% in common with us'to put down The slave trade from the Congo Basin °and Central Africa generally. We haVe eileo the right of common hurnanity, Which. we have always claimed. I go *bout the world a good deal, and I know only too well how much of her repute - tow for humanity and justice England bas lost M the last ten" years. SWEETHEART'S "GHOST." ****•••••••• * Dead,- ‘Giri ftevisits Her Praying Lover.' The story of the return of flia spirit et a dead sweetheart is told on the au- ithority of the Rev, A.

The vicer relates how a young mari M grief. at the death of hie sweetheart grayed earnestly and constantly for a sign that she lived beyond the grave.

Defies Recapture in a Steamship's Hold. • - 'On board the Conerie Castle, of the Union Castle Line, which arrived. at, Plyingutte England, ,recently from South Africa, is a large collection of wild animals, brought home by Mr. H. Wind- horn,'.a German collector. Mr. Windhorn stated in an interview that on the present trip he had lost a large male sphinx beboon. ,About a week after leaving Cape Town it broke out of its cage, and for two days et was at liberty in the hold, and deflect all at- tempts at recapture, showing fight 'when- ever anyone ventured near. Efforts were made to recapture the baboon, but whenever netting was thrown it „would leap clear, jumping fifteen feet at a time. It Was allayed to quietdown, and while' the • keeper Was offering it food, Mr. Windham got to close quarters with A, He, however, slipped, and the baboon kfastenedt its teeth in his legs " He forced openssthe animal's jaws, and 'then ,it fastened its fangs in his hand, badly-Mairaing it., It also bit the keeper and the boatswain of the ship., 'They .attempted to .drug the animal, but it swallowed half a bottle of whiskey -without effect. They, gave it opium enough. to kill ten men, in a bottle of lemonade, but this had no effect upon it. Finally' the baboon was :coaxed through the companion -way, bound se- curely and con-veyed to its cage. It died four days laterehowever—from a broken heart, in Mr. Windhorn's opinion. • CHILDHOOD AILMENTS. Most of the troubles that afflict 1;t•• tic ones may be traced to the stomach or bowels and if these are put right the child will get well and thrive_well. Baby's Own Tablets will cure all sto- mach and }peeve' ailments, and all the ether minor troubles of babyhood and childhood. And the mother has the guarantee of a, government analyst that this medicine contains no, poison- ous opiate or harmful drug. Mrs. Wil- bert McKenzie, Chelmsford, Orin, says: 'My little girl was troubled with obsti- nate constipation to such an extent that we did not think she would live. She cried almost constantly and was wasting away. I got a box of Baby's Own Tablets, and in three days found a great improvement.' I continue,d giv- ing her the Tablets for nearly a month, and every trace of the trouble has disappeared, and she hes since been a bright, healthy child and 'has grown nicely." You can get the Tablets from any medicine dealer or by mail at 25 gents 4 box by writing. The Dr. ',Wil- liam& Medicine Co,, Brockville, Ont. VOICE FROM GRAVE. Robert Louis Steeenson's PronbeeY About 'Frisco. It is almost startling, after reading the accounts of the San Francisco dis. aster, to turn to the late Robert Louis Stevenson's essay. on that ,city. After an extremely beautiful deseription of the place and its suburb, Oaklands, lie goes on :—"Thus, in the' Wiese of a generation only, .this city and its Su- burbs have arisen. Men are alive by the score who have limited sill over the foundalions In a dreary waste e But I wonder what enehantmente of the Ara - blare Nights can have equalled tbie evocil lion of a roaring city, in ,a few year of a man's life, from the marshes and the blowing sand; Soch swiftness of increase, as with an .overgrown youth, suggests a eorresponding swift- ness of destruotion. We are in early geolegical epochs, changeful and inse- cure, and we feel, as with 'a Sellipter'S model, that the author may yet grow Weary of and shatter the rough sketch" Never, surely, have the' crillevirtga of a poetic genius been so suddenly and startlingly verified. 4•4Marriage," remarked the 'ineralizer, ie lottery."
