Well -Known £rtt!veler on' the ZeeZabae Coast. lsloodtkersty ant 4i14Wbo Areae Seven .as the Weld Beasts. ° I have just returned to France after an absence or lour Imre whioh were spent in some of the wildest 1 egions of Central Africa. During one of my previous journeys ou the Zanzibar coast while mapping out the mountains in that country, a doubt came into my mind ae to the enures of the jabs, a elver of Northern Ziezibar, which ' is represented as formed by the Omo, a river of the Kingdom of Shoe. From the oonfigur• aeon of see country I wee surveying, and other easons, I became impressed with a cones, blon that the Omo aud the Juba numb be d&atinot water.00arsee, and it was partly to remove all doubts on the subject that I undertook a voyage of exploration to the sources of the Omo. At Aden I engaged the services' of sixty able-bodied and weU•armed men, among whom were a oertein number of Abyssinians and Harrarle, who accepted to Dross the Red Sea and escort me to Farrar, on pay- menu of 10 thaleris or about (50 a day, This I agreed to do. As trade whore I was going is generally curled on bybsrter, I took about $14,000 worth of silk and linen goodie gime bead, gold and`eilver enebroldery to exchange with the natives, and from $3,000 to $4,00Q of gold in ingots, booklet' the instruments I ueedud for Scientific observe - genre I DECIDED TO ENTER AFR= The country le wild and broken, marched by by a oandenb sun, and furrowed by depres• mmime ono and cavities, a of whioh sink to a depth of a thousand and more feet. These rooky masses offer a suooepsion of long and steep aeon's. The ravines by whioh the high basaltic hills are intersected are, at their base, strewn with huge blooke and• boulders that have been detached from their faces. , The descent from the plainofeWardilissan, whioh is covered with stones and pebbles— the pest of the country -and hes neither grass nor water, to the Bahr Assad (Salt Lake), lies through a traob which seems to have been ii'QRNED TOPSY-TURVY between high and steep hills, and reminds one of the infernal regions. Nature has undergone some awful cataclysm in those solitary washes. The lake is 670 feet below the level of the sea. About a third of the soil in its vioinity is covered with a sheet of salt half a footthick, whioh resembles ice. As saltie not only used for culinary pur- poses, but also as a currency, <it. is out into pieces of the stripe of a whetsone ; they are about nine Innes long, one inch and three- quarters thiok, and in the middle two inches wide. Black lava beds abound, and • eaeveral deep craters, diimosas,'from which gum arabio is collected, acacias, saline plants, and a few groves of doom palm trees are also met with by the way. • After days of toilsome jouneying through this desolate country we oame upon a huge wall of solid rook and entered the gorges of Gugunta, an exceedingly narrow defile in the mountains whioh close in, on every side. On approaching the tableland, as we wormed our way through these precipitous and lofty cliffs ofporphyry and diorit, the decent was very steep, espeoially for laden camels ; within a few miles the rise of the basaltic ,a mase amounts to 6,000 or 7,000 feet. We were soon among the wandering tribes of the• Ad Alli. Woe to the unfortunate straggler in these : parts, for he is sure to be cub off 1 The Ad Alli are exceedingly ferocious'and •bloodthirsty. At times we "• et' nom : of;wtheix women and children driving their Hooks of sheep and goats. Nor hid we less to fear from the !LAVAGE DENIZENS OF THE FOREST and caverns, for here wild beasts abound. Lions are occasionally meb with. Leopards also sometimes appear. There are numerous wolves, hyenas, lynxes, and texas. As we approaohed the Hewash River, whioh constitutes the boundary between the Dankali•Ad•Alli tribes and the Kingdom of Shoe, the aspect of the country suddenly changes.' It becomes verdant and widely onitivated. Small villages are perched on most of the peaked hills we pass. Tho oamel•thorn, babooi, ''tamarind, and the luxuriant s000trine aloe•plant smiled on every side. Game is abundant. ' Zebras nail bustards and beizeer, pur•fowls, quail, bu fiorioans swarmed around our path. Ante- lopes were to be seen .grazing ; ottriohes and herd's of wild asses flew past in the jungle. Snipe and duos sought refuge in lakes cov- ered with the lotus plant. In the trees, parrots in gay . plumage and dog headed monkeys disported themselves among ` the branches; and though serpents' were not numerous in the vndergrowtn, some are deadly eadl oleonous. The bed of the Hawaeh is oovired with thick jungle, the haunt of elephants and rhinoceroses, We crossed the river and reached Ankoboer, formerly the capital. of Shea. it is built on two wooded hills ; bhe northern one strongly palisaded ; tie south- ern thickly clustered with houses, which are very rude ebruoturefs of conical ubape, cov- ered with overedwith thatch. ' But we made noisstay at fl this plane, hastening on to Antoto. whioh is the present capital of the kingdom. .entoto, whioh is at about sixty days' journey from the coast, is the reeidenoe . of King . Mtnilok II„ who OLAIMS DESCENT FROM SOLOMON. I was well received at the Cowt of King 1Ne1.1ilek II. Like all travelers on reaching Antoto, I had to go through the ordeal of unpacking all my goods and show ing the King every article in my possession. It is customary or suoh .000asione to offer the sovere1 n any object whioh he may whh • to own. Should you fail to offer it as a present he will alk to buy it and faithfully keep his word ; but in the event of your refusing even on such fair terms to_ part with the coveted object; ens of your diking an exhorbitant price fora --must ex sot nupleasantness to follow; '` p, king 'Menilek liai+a regular court, which is Made up of numerous dignitaries and funeiioneries after the manner, of feudal times.

There are three rcaogaised sorts of mer riagee,as in the Byzantine oode: concubinege: marriage in the presence of parents, and the religious form of marriage. A man who marries in a ohuroh can not,. if, his wife dies wed another woman at the a lar.

Mycourse now law to the south. Finally 1 reached the banks of the Ghibie.Ennharye, better known as the Oma,which was the ohief object of my present expedition. In so doing I had discovered en entirely new region and entered the country of bhe Bob -1 tors, After threading iavast forest, I mane upon the source of the Omo, and acquired the oonviotion that, throughout its entire. course; it had nothing in oommon with and was quite distinct from the Juba. Having settled this point beyond all possi- ble dispute, I painted on as far as I could into those wild regions, which contain scenes of extreme grandeur. I was so well re- ceived in the . kingdom of Djimma that I. stayed' there a whole twelvemonth, making an exhaustive topographical survey of the country. There, at the foot of the May. Goudo, I explored an immense sweep of territory, extending from the south in an easterly direction, and whioh had NEVER BEFORE BEEN RECONNOITRED by any soientifio traveler. • Continuing due mat, I visited in turn Tambaros, the /ladies, the W ualansoe, the Koolos, and obher pagan tribes, each of which has its own peculiar laws, language, mannere, and superstitions. The Tambaros have three distinct tongues of their own. They elect a new king every month. Their kings in former times were life-long possessors of the throne ; but, die= covering one day that one of these grew rich too rapidly, they put him aside and ekoted somebody else, whose sovereignty was not to extend over a year, This, however, was found too long a spell also ;End the council of elders decided that henceforth no king should reign over them beyond thirty days. I have carefully studied these different tribes, Salt, whioh, as we have seen, is accepted as currency among the Gallas, is re• jeoted by these tribes. They have three species of currency : slaves, who represent what we may style bank -notes ; calves, which answer the purpose of coin ; and bits of iron which stand in lieu of copper ooin among us, They willingly buy at their markets cotton goods of Liverpool mauufao. ture, bat unravel the whole into thread, from which they in turn weave their own stuffs. They have no idea of the process of dyeing ; when they see a bit of blue stuff, they fancy the wool on the sheep's back rom which it is made must have been of that color. THEY TREAT THEIR sevens is WITS BI dDNHS8. Children, as slaves, bring higher prices than grown men and women. A girl of 12, if handsome, fetches from $16 to $ib A full grown man, if strong and healthy, is worth $8 at most. They have more slaves than free men. Once bought, a el ave isaever sold to another ; the marred thing is to give the slave away as a freewill gift.' Horne and mules abound all over those regions. Tho Galla oxen are magnificent beasts, with horns sometimes four feet long. But Most of these tribes are difficult to approach. They are very mistrustful, es- pecially as concerns foreigners, and are often at war with one another. I suffered ab bhe hands of the Koallas, who fell upon 'my" es•' corn in the mountains ; we drove them bank the first time, bub got the worst of it ho a second encounter. The same thing happen- ed among the Zingeros, on the banks of the Omo, whither I repaired with a neighboring ohief at the head of 1,800 fighting men. The Zingeros were beaten in thefirab in. stance ; bat they returned in laige numbers. repu'sed oar forma, killed several of our men, and made others prisoners, who were condemned to drink boiling water. These Zingeros are addicted to bhe hide - OM practice of offering up hudaan sacrificer. The viotlme are Invaribiy chosen from the best families. Every month a 'certain num: ber are seleoted, and disembowelled with knives. I have brought back the names of over bwenty five of these diatinguiehed families. The foregoing is in substance the outline, of a lecture whioh I am o tly to deliver before the Paris Geograp .lSooieby,where ii the numerous articles Ir lsghb back have been on exhibition for eev ral weeks pant. "Wait 'Til I Get You Home."

A simple het , attraobive gown worn at a five-oolook tea recently was copied front a Paris•mao,e dress, bub of a different color and quality. The gown was of a lovely tint of heliotrope silk, Hanging straight all around', the skirt was, as fashion direots, excessively full, though there were no visible aids to the fulness at the back. At the hem was a deep border of beliotrope velvet considerably' darker than the dregs in shade. The perfect fitting corsage had Empire fronts of velvet on either bide, The sleeves were fashioned with a long, loose puff to the elbow, meeting a close coat sleeve of the velvet,' whioh buttoned up -the acme on the outsile, The vary simplicity oe the style lent or oharni to; the gown, added ix) the fact that its wearer was charming also. Among ,the autumn cloaks ;recently dis- played is a long one of a riot golden shade of terracotta figured with blank, the figures woven to "represent a fine black braiding. •Its is hung from a shorb tight -fitting under- jeokeb. Straight from bhe nook to the feet in front are rows of revere of black moire, wide at the ehoulders and narrowing to the bottom of the akiro. There is also a. deep gape toiler of the moire.—The rich watered silk looked very handsome and not ab all heavy or gloomy, being relieved by tee sof'' terepoobba of bhe cloth.Another cloak hat; a woven design of paseementerie figures, and is decorated With ivy leaves worked in glittering copper beads.

A pretty and becoming modification of that old prime favorite, the English walking•hat, has appeared,less narrow on the brim front, and not rolld so closely to bhe crown on the. sides, making it more than ever becoming td•. slender faced women, to whom the shape, like the Frenoh turban, is .aivaya a boon; The new felt bonnets are beautifully soft • and fine, and dyed in all the autumn shades, both dark, pale, andneutral, to match street cos- tumes. Some are in prinaesse shape, others with small coronets, or in the flat style of the new English oapote, whioh reveals all of the waved or Huffy mass of heir over the forehead, Some of the orowns, low at the back, are pinched into a few soft folde, thus taking away the plain, straight look usual bo these shapes. Fancy figured, mottled. heabher•mixed, and checked felts are shown, bo be worn with -bailor suits of similar, pattern. The shorb fanny j soketa of cloth, ,cashmere, silk, and velvet bid fair to remain popular all the fall and winter, as they are Ohio and pretty, and make becoming and dressy addle bions to plain home toilets, or addto the effect of one more elaborate. Some of the new j lckets are in close basque form, having jacket fronts 'that open over a Continental vest, with bands of embroidery on the packet - flaps, collar, and fronts. Some of the expen sive Empire jackets are Vandyked ab the edge, each ,point covered with a Vandyked ornament of silk gimp, or simply tipped with a beaded pendeloque. Another Empire j tc .t is made of military sloth, this cut with'etroleht fronts and close fitting at the back. with a deeply ourved seam down the centre and one under the arms. These do not quite reach the waist, and are worn with a soft Greek sash knotted at the left side. The Louise jacket, on the contrary, comes about .three inches below bhe belt, .fins the form closely, and opens from ono fastening over a double-breasted velvet vest brimmed with handsome gold buttons. There are velvet revers and deep turn -down collar of the same orthe-jacket. Black moire and lyaok armure royal jackets are lined with. rose colour, mauve,mahogany, or other ooloared silk, with vests and revere of like tint. There appears to be a great difference of method between the English and French dreasmmker in the modeling of their gowns. The foundation of the Paris -made dress is almosb invariably silk, and fitted on the in- tended wearer's figure with as much pare as an English dressmaker bestows on the bodice of her olienb. Unless ib be a regular "tailor" dressmaker, the modiste very generally leaves bhe foundation skirt to take care of itself ; that is, she has a pattern for the slim and for the stout, and she shapes her founda• -one bythe one or .the other of these,appor dons r PP tioning them severally' to her eye estimate. No wonder, considering the individual exigencies of most figures, that these skirts hang so badly. No good arrangement of the over drapery can redeem the faults of the foundation part of bhe skirt. A. number of Englishwomen recently stopping ab a fashion- able hotel in Montreal were richly attired ; their gowns were of handsome and expensive material, bus utterly devoid of the a hang " and atbractiveness of even bhe simple little gowns worn each day by the quaint French parlour -maid at the hotel for although their dresses were invariably.of either muslin or cambric, they had, notwithstanding, the cachet and unmistakable grace of a gown never either made or worn iby an Englieh• woman.—(N.
