Until quite recent years, when the colon.
iai fever became epidemic, Portugal pat
forth no claim to any territory beyond the
Ruo, a bributery of the Shire, some distance
to the north of the Zimbssi. Whatever
information may have been buried in the
archives of Lisbon the maps of thla region,
issued cfiicially about the time of Living -
stone's expedition thirty years ago, show
that only the vaguest notion existed as to
Lake Nyassa, and that the origin of the
Shire River was quite unknown.

explore the geography of the region but to
encourage the development of its resources
and its trade, and to promote the

The company hie introduced many mew
cultures into the country, whioh in time
must become a source of wealth ; and, above
all, it baa shown the people the great ed.
vantages of legitimate frade over that in
"black ivory,' to whioh the brutal Arabs
had accustomed them. From the two tiny.
coffee plants seat oub from the Botanical
Gardens in Edinburgh no less than 100,000
trees have sprang and are flourishing at the

Mincing•lane, and is pronounced of high
quality.
Such, then, era some of the results of
British enterprise in Nyasaland daring the
het twenty-five years. Oar "title deeds'' to
this region may bo summed up in the stirring
words of the Rev. Horace Waller, himself
one of the Nyasa pioneers: "Darted bare.
and there, trom the mangrove swamps to the
liongonc: mouth of the Zambesi to the furth-
est extremity of Lake Nyaesa's shore, we
pans the graves of naval c facers, of bravo
Mies, of a missionary Bishop, of clergymen,
Foreign Office representatives, doctors,
scientific men, engineers, and mechanics.
All these were our countrymen; they lia in
glorious graves ; their careers have been
foundation stoner, and already the edifice
rides."
British mission stations are working at
high pressure on the Shire highlands, and
under various auspices, nob only upon the
shores of Lake Nyassa, but on its is' -ands
also, and by desperate choice, as it were, in

mapped out; commerce is developing by
sure and steady steps; a vigorous company
is showing to tribes and tribes that there are
more valuable commodities in their land
than their sons and daughters, for whom the
Arabs and half mates peddle and barter;
and it is a eatiefaobion,'by the bye, to ue to
hear that a fair return upon English capital
is a result of these particular operations in
Central. Africa. Putting aside the question
of money outlay alone, which we see has

made forbidding him to part with it
According to evidence already given by
Stanley and Mr. Bonny, Tippoo broke his
ooatraob with the expedition with a view to
obtaining all the stores and ammunition be-
longing to it. The witnesses also declared
that Tippoo Tib's nephew, Selim Mohamed,
punished by death the natives who were
desirous of bringing food to the expedition,
and prevented the Zsrzibarilefrom meeting
those who were bringing them sustenance,
thus causing a high rate of mortality among
Mr. Stanley's followers. It was further
shown that in June, 1888, Tippoo Tib pro-
vided 430 Manyeme, his ulterior objects be

of the action, all speculation is, course,
premature.
The Crown of Prussia.
The royal crown of Prussia, whioh dates
from the time of King Frederick I is lined
with velvet, contrary to all heraldic rules.
This fact has led to several discrepancies,
more especially to matters of art. The
painter, Professor Hildebrant, a well know,.
authority on ;points of heraldry, some years
ago sketched a banner for a veteran assoola-
tion,striotly adhering to the heraldic rule in
drawing the royal crown without s lining.
Oa the sketch beim sent to the minister of
the interior the cfiicial ebjacted to it, in•
slating upon the P-ussian crown being Iined,
but fiaally yielded to the professor. Ib may
be mentioned here that the crown of 1701
can 110 longer be worn nowadays. It was
fitted ab the time to bo worn over a wig,
and therefore, is far too large. The Emper-
or William, on the occasion of his oeron-
abion, had a new crown merle for himself.
When the court jeweler delivered ib he re-
quested the king to try it on, but the king
declined, saying that he could not possibly
consent to " try on " a Drown whioh he was
first to place upon his head en so oolemn an
occasion as a coronation.

Early Potatoes.
Ib le au item to have et least a few early
penstock, and it will pay to take a little
pains to secure them. Oafs of the firat items
to secure is good. Bead, not only an early
variety but a good quality. Potatoes, like
all other teed, will run out, unloes good
care is taken in the eolootion. And the
quality has considerable loflueuue in teour-
mga supply early. Ib la bosh to secure the
lead iu good taason, to that when the time
comes planting the seed there nod be no
delay,
The soil should be well drained; if not
ander•dralaed, good surface drainageshould
be provided. While potatoes require eon-
siderable mofeture, yet in a cold web soil
they will make a very poor growth; hence
it le beat to see that good drainage .ie pro•
vided. A riot loamy suit that oda be readily
werked into a good tiltb is best.
One item is : Snare a quick growth; and
a good supply of available plant•food le
neaeasary.
If good drainage cannot readily be se-
cured, a good plat is to make atoll ridges,
nob as high as for sweet potatoes or as
large. Fur the center of this maks a roas •
onebly good furrow, and in those Ilaces
where the deed ie to be dropped put a small
spadeful of fresh manure. Caves this
lightly with soil—two inches will beplenty.

Ridging up gives a bettor opportunity
for drying out and warming np. The fresh
manure will aid materially to keep the soil
warm. I tried putting the 'manure on top,
after planting the seed, and covering with
soil, bat I prefer to pat the fresh manure
in the bottom of the furrow and pub a thin
layer of aoii over thin, and planting the seed.
Give good cultivation, keeping the soil in a
good tilth, so as to induce :a quick growth,
It is not neaeseary to put in ridges if the
soli is naturally dry, although more benefit
from the eon. in warming up can be scoured
if ridged. Early Sunrise is one of the best
early varieties I have ever raised, although
there are a number of other early varieties
recommended. 'Early Ohio is a good early
variety, but is a little later than Sunrise.—

Onions From Sets.
Now the feed of the oows trom r, hloh we
obtain the manure is largely nitrogenous,
being bran, shorts and ground cockle from
the flour mills. In growing a crop requiring
so much nitrogen as does the onion, the
manure from the cows fed aa above stated
has alwaya given good result. We use at tire:
rate of 75 tone per acre.
Wa prefer to plow in the fall if convenient,
if nob, as soon as possible in the spring. In
spreading, the manure should be well broken
up. We sometimes do this with a harrow
and roller, going over several times if neces-
sary, so that when plowed and harrowed the
manure will be in fine particles and well
mixed up with the soil. The land being
plowed, harrowed and planked down, we
mark with a twelve -inch marker and stick
the sets three inches apart and clown a little
beneath the surface. After planting we bread
the rows with our feeb, heel to toe, right on
top of the sets ; the pressure firma the Bete
and breaks up any little clods of soil that
otherwise might in a dry time cause a dry-
ing out at the roots.
The planting being done, in a few days
we take a steel rake and rake lightly over
the whole patch, whioh oan easily be done
without disturbing any of the sets if the
work thus far has been done as before advis-
ed. This raking makes an even, mellow ant
face and destroys.all eurfaoesprouting weeds
whioh in onion oalbnre is of the greatest
importance. When the sets have become
wall rooted we apply a top dressing of dry
wood ashes or of wood ashes and bones, the
ashes and bones having' been previously
packed in barrels and sufficiently moistened
with water to reduce the bones bo small'
particles as fine as if ground. The rains will
leach the ashes and let loose such an amount
of plant food from the manure that bhe crop
will now be seen to grow exceedingly rapid .
Wheelhoeing and weeding will now ba in
order until such time Mc the orop is large
enough to market. -13, S, G:aybefore Min `
