This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project 
to make the world’s books discoverable online. 


It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject 
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired, Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books 
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that’s often difficult to discover. 

Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book’s long journey from the 
publisher to a library and finally to you.

public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to 
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.

+ Maintain attribution The Google “watermark” you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find 
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it. 


+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just 
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other 
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of 
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner

REPORT OF THE COUNCIL, 
Reap ar Tae Awstversany Mexrixe oy rae 28rH May. 


‘Tux Council have the pleasure of submitting to the Fellows 
the Annual Report on the financial and general 
conilition of the Society. 

Members—The number of new Fellows added to the roll of 
the Society during the year ending April 30th is 292, besides 
one Honorary and two Honorary Corresponding Members. In 
the previous year (1875-6), the number of new Fellows was 
266 ; in 1874-5, 294; andin 1873-4, 342, On the other hand, 
there have been removed by death 66, by resignation 43, and 
by default of subscription 45: making the net increase 138. 
Tn the year 1875-6 the net increase was 149; in 1874-5, 202; 
and in 1873-4, 177. ‘The Society has lost also by death 
4 Honorary Corresponding Members. ‘The total number of 
Fellows (exclusive of Honorary) on the list, April 80th, was 
3295, of whom 760 were Life Members. 


Finances—The total net income of the Society for the 
financial year ending Bist of December, 1876 (exclusive of 
Palance in hand and special Parliamentary grant), was 
86111 11 8d., of which 71097. 11s. consisted of the subscrip- 
tions of Fellows. These amounts compare favourably with 





vi 


the same iftté of previous years: thus in 1875 the income 
was 7934/, 15s. 10d., and subscriptions 64411. 11s. In 1874, 
TOLIL Ue/10d. and 64257. 1s. 6d.; and in 1873, 67521. 48, 4d. 
and 56491: 198, 6d. 

The /net expenditure, as will be seen by the annexed 
Balance-sheet, was 687UJ. 13s. 1d. In the previous year it was 
5689. 48, 10d. Part of this increase is due to the greater 
‘émbunt spent on Expeditions, viz, 10542. 92. as compared with 
6211. 88. 4d., and the rest chiefly to the greater cost of the 
.publications and maps. No money was invested within the 
year. 

The Finance Committee of the Council have, as in former 
years, held their Monthly Meetings, supervising the accounts 
of the Society. The Annual Audit was held in April, the 
Auditors, whose signatures are appended to the annexed 
Balance-sheet, being the Right Hon. Lord Cottesloe and Sir 
Rawson W. Rawson, on behalf of the Council, and General 
Sir George Balfour, u.p., and H. Jones Williams, Esq., on 
behalf of the Fellows, The thanks of the Council and of 
the Society at large are due to these gentlemen, for having 
freely devoted eo much of their valuable time to this arduous 
task.

viii Royal Geographical Society. 

Publications —The 46th yolume of the ‘Journal’ will be 
published during the prosent week, the issue having been 
delayed this year owing to the necessity of including Colonel 
©. G. Gordon's important Map of the connection of the Nile 
with the Equatorial Lakes, and its accompanying Paper, which 
were presented by its author after the rest of the ‘Journal’ 
was ready for publication. Volume 20 of the ‘Proceedings’ 
has been completed, and three parts of Volume 21 issued to 
the Fellows, since the last Anniversary. 


Livingstone Aid Expeditions—The large amount expected to 
be charged in the present Balance-sheet, on account of Ligutenant 
Cameron's Expedition, for which the Fellows were prepared in 
last year's Report, was huppily reduced to moderate proportions 
in consequence of the liberality of Her Majesty's Government, 
who sanctioned a grant of 30002, towards the exponses of this 
truly national undortaking. ‘Tho sum paid out of the Society's 
funds on this account, as will be seen by the Balance-sheet, 
was only 10547. 9s, There are still some outstanding bills 
which will appear, it is expected, in the next Balance-sheet : 
and on the credit side, also, there will appear the amount 
(4501) produced by the cale, a few weeks ago, of the echooner 
which brought Lieutenant Cameron’s followers from Loanda to 
Zanzibar. 


Trbrary.—739 books and pamphlets have been added 
to tho Library during the past year, 585 (including all the 
pamphlets) being donations, and 204 purchased. Besides 
these, and without reckoning newspapers, 1214 separate parts 
or numbers of periodicals, ‘Transactions, Reports, &c., have 
been received. 26 whole volumes and 55 separate parts have 
been obtained by gift in, or towards, completion of defective 
series, 


Tn addition to the numerous pamphlets and small works put 
into covers on the Society's premises, 813 volumes have been 
bound and 44 repaired during the past year. 

‘The sum of 1087. 12s, 2d. bas been expended by the Library 
Committee in purchasing books, and the further sum of 
TIAL, 6, 6d, in binding.

“Qolénel Yuuz, 

“Sineo Nain Singh's absence from this country precludes 
ay having tho pleasure of handing to him in porson, this, the 
‘Victoria or Patron’s Medal, which has been awarded to him for 
Uis great journeys and surveys in Tibet and along the Upper 
Bnhmapntra, daring which ho dotormined the positions of Lhisa, 
an) added Jargely to our positive knowledge of the map.of Asia, 
Theg to place it in your charge for transmission to the Pundit, 

“J will myself addrom a lottor to tho Viceroy in India calli 
lis attention to this award of one of the two Modals of the year, 
tho highest honour this Society oan confer on any Geographer, 
however distinguished by his services to Geographical Soience or 
Discovery, and with a request that His Excellency will take such 
ops as he may deem best for its presentation to Nain Singh. 

“Bat, in the mean time, I would bog you, who wore the first to 
Propore that this Medal should bo so conferred, and took such 

genervas and earnest interest in the recognition by the Society of 
Nain Singh's high claima to that distinction, to convey to him 
from mo, us the President of the Royal Geographical Society, tho 
satisfaction the Council have felt im thus publicly marking their 
high appreciation of the noble qualities of loyalty, conrage and 
endurance, by the display of which in no ordinary degree he 
achieved saccess, and was cnablod to add)so largely to our know: 
Iedgo of that portion of Asin which no European could explore, 1 
would ask you also to.add that. the Council havo not failed to seo 
‘that he bas not worked aa a mere topographical automaton; and 
were perfectly aware that, notwithstanding he was a native of 
Asia nd familiar with Tibetan dialects, his journeys were not 

without great peril to life, I would dually wish you 
t6 convey to Nain Singh, who in tho performance of theso dis- 
tinguished pervices haa suffered seriously in health by the extreme 
Hardships attending his journeys, that I trust this public recog- 
nition of his merit ax a Goographer from the Royal Geographical 
Society, whicli in ity awards knows no distinction of nationality, 
ries or creed, will bo a source of satisfaction to him in his rotire- 
ment, of which nothing cin ever deprive him, to the end of a life 
fio has devoted so faithfully to the public service and the advance- 
ment of Geugrajhical knowledge.” 


Colonel Yous, in roply, aid :—“ I was taken by surprise when I 
was ntked to officiate on this occasion as the recipient of the Medal 
for Nain Singh. ‘The man who, beyond all others, ought to have 
cooupied the position ix Colonel Montgomerie, and I am suro

that nothing but ill-hoalth could havo cansod that gentleman to 
‘be absent on an occasion so interesting to him. Not only had 
Colonel Montgomerie given Nain Singh the most essential part of 
his training, but he was himself one of the most distinguished 
Himalayan and surveyors, and had spent # onsiderable 
Portion of his life at an altitude of 18,000 feot above the sea, Tam 
utterly unknown to Nain Singh, and T shall therefore, by the 
loave of the Society, communicate the intimation of hie having 
been aasigned the Medal through Colonel Montgomerie, But 
though Ido not know Nain Singh porsonally, work, 
and Gal afivin that what tho Procident bia aid about him is 
vory just. Ha is not a topographical automaton, or merely on 
of a great multitude of native employés with on average fi 
cation. His observations have added a larger amount of impor 

knowledge to the map of Asia than those of any other living

It will afford me great pleasure to take steps for the transmission 
of the Modal through an official channel to the Pundit” 


A Geld Watch, with an appropriate Inscription, was also pre- 
ponted to Captain A, H. Markham, nx. for having 
the Northern Division of wlodges in the Arctic Expedition of 
1875-6, and for having planted the Union Jack in 83° 20' 26" #., a 
higher latitude than had ever before been reached by any previous 
Expedition. 

In delivering the Watch, the Presmeyr said :— " 

“Captain Marcnam, I haye much pleasure in ti

Bry Sm Ruruervonv ALCOCK, 6.6.8, D.C, Paestonnt. 





Greriznes, 
| Tux period which has elapsed since the lust Anniversary 
Mecting of the Royal Geographical Sooiaty has been an unusually 
eventiil one in many respects. The roturn of the Arctic Expe- 
dition, quickly following that af the Challenger, and of Cameron 
| from his marvellous journey across Contral Africa, excited great 
| imtorest in reeearchea proseouted in such widely-separated and 
Giversified flelds of Geographical discovery. ‘The continued diseus- 
ion of the varions conditions of success, and the scientific results 
of Arctic exploration, us also the Mecting of tho African Goo- 
graphical Conference in Brussels last autumn, at the invitation of 
the King of the Belgians, are evidences of active interest which 
cannot fail to bear fruit at no distant period, and to promote the 
eultivation of Geography as « science in all its branches. 
‘It hax been tho endeavour of the Council and myself, during the 
Past year, to effect some of the objects glanced at in the last 
Adilress of my predecessor, Sir Henry Rawlinson, as 
‘Being then under consideration, allude moro particularly to the 
“Mekire to extend in a moro strictly scientific direction the range of

Leaving minor sorvicos unnoticed, r pass on to the Pandit's 
crowning work os an explorer, Having accompanied Sir D. 
Fomyth's Mission to Kashgar, in 1873, without finding oppor- 
tunity for detached employment, on the return of the party to 
Ladak he voluntecred to go on a fresh journoy of exploration. 
‘This journey, if not quite so important o8 that which earned his 
first fame, was over a field oven yet more arduous, and less known. 
His route lay from Leb to Lhasa, by a line further north than any 
proviously known, and, in fact, across that part of the high plateau 
of Tibet which is almost blank in our maps. In the course of his 
journey he discovered an oxtensive series of lakes and rivers, as 
‘woll as a vast mowy range to the north of the Tibotan course of tho 
Brahinaputra. 

His stay at Lhasa was cut short by circumstances of danger, and, 
after having detormined the course of the Brahmaputra to a point 
vory much lower than any that had yot beon ascertained, ho struck 
across the Himalaya southward, and entered Assam by the Tawang 
Pass, a route hitherto quite unexplored. 

‘The total length of this journey from Ladak to the frontier-post 
of Assam was 1319 miles, and about 1200 miles of this lay through

what may most justly be called terra incognita. His observations 
for latitude and longitude were moro numerous than over. This 
(gFeat and toilsomo feat appoars to have closod tho Pundit's career 
efexploration. ‘Though not far advanced in years, his constitution 
is stated to be worn out, and his sight impaired by protracted 
exposure and incessant observation, in thoso harsh climates and. 
‘at those vast altitudes. Such are the achievements which our 
Socioty lus desired to recognise by its Medal. 


_ New Guixes—An important journoy in tho interior of New 
Guinea has been performed during the past year by Signor 
D'Albertis, the well-known Italian naturalist whom my prodecessor 
mentioned in the lat Annivorsary Addross as having accompanied 
‘Mr. Maofatlane, in the London Missionary Society’s steamer, on his 
‘Yoyage up the Fly River, On his return from that preliminary 
joumey, Signor D’Albertia visited Now South Walos, and was thors 
furnished, by the liberality of a number of wealthy residents of 
Sydney, with the means of undertaking a further exploration of this: 
greatest known rivor of New Guinea. A small steam-lounch, namod 
the News, of only 12 tons burthen, was provided for him, and leaving 
Sydney on the 20th of April, 1876, he commenced his ascent of the 
Fiver towards the end of May, with a crew of ten mon, three only of 
‘whom were Huropéans. ‘Uhe journey up the stream was continued 
owith varied adventure, but without serious accident, until the 26th 
‘of June, by which day he bad reached « point in s, lat. 5° 30’ and 
® long. 141° 80’, about 500 miles from the mouth, following the 
‘windings of the river, a distance far exoveding that attained by 
‘Mr. Macfarlane in tho EWangowan in the pravions year, which was 
only 160 miles. At the farthest point reached, Signor D'Albertis. 
‘reports the Vly River to be in some places only 25 or 30 yards wide, 
and very shallow in places; indead, it was owing to the stroam in 
dry weather being too shallow for his little launch, which ropeat~ 
edly grounded on gravelly banks, that he waa forced to abandon his 
‘emterpriso; his intention, at starting, having been to cross by land 
to the opposite northern coust of the island, should the river prove 

“navigable to a distance of not more than 200 miles from the const. 
Tho navigability ceased, howover, at 400 miles from the northorn 
‘sido, and tho land journey had to boabandoned. ‘The rapidity with 
which the height of the water rose and foll, according as the 

Weather was rainy or dry, shows that the traveller could not have 

‘boon very far from the sources of the stream; and tho swiftness of 








colxxxri Sir Rurmerronp Acoox's Address. 
tho current after heavy rain was ono of the chief difficulties ho had 


the navigation, and the impasauble nature of the dense forest which 
clothes the banks of this great river, prevented Signor D'Albertis 
from adding 0 largely as ho had oxpectod to his natural history 
collection, and the same causes proventod his making any geogra- 
phical reconnaissance beyond the immedinte banks of the stream. 
‘Ho endeavoured to got views of the country by ascending tho mall 
-eminences accensible from tho banka; but at the point where he 
tarned back no high Jand was in sight, the highest hills observed 
around averaging only from 300 to 400 feet. But lowor down the 
river ho discerned from tho top of a hill, 250 foot high, some very 
high mountains at a distance estimated at 50 or 60 miles, As far 
as native population is concerned, Macfarlane's experience 
-appears to have beon confirmed, namoly, that itis only the brond 
reaches near the mouth of the river that aro at all well peopled. 
Beyond 100 miles, native hones and natives seem to have been very 
rarely met with, and the natives in almost all cases forvook their 
shonses or their villages on the approach of the strange visitors. 

Tn April of last year, Mr. Macfarlane made an interesting voyage 
dn the Wangowan steamer from Port Moresby to China Straits and 
Possession Bay, at the soath-castern oxtremity of New Guinea, and 
‘mnade some discoveries of islands and harbours in this varied and 
picturesque region, which will form a valuable supplement to the 
result of Captain Moresby’s memorablo: survey, The Rev. Mr. 
‘Lawes, an observant and zealous member of the London Missionary 
Society's Mission, takes an active part in these explorations, 
which are being undertaken with a view of ascertaining the best 
sites for Mission stations in Now Guinon. Hoe accompanied Mr. 
Maofarlane to China Straiis, and has recently communicated an 
account of a subsequent visit to Point Hood, in the noighbourhood 
-of which he discorored a fine river, 100 to 150 yards wide, which 
has its eource on the slopes of Mount Astrolabe, 





Avsrnatts.—Mr. Emest Giles, whose remarkable journey through

 Noara Axeniwca—The surveys undertaken by various official 
departments of tho United States continue to afford important con- 
tributions to oar knowledge of the geography of North America ; 
and, in connection with the purely geographical portions of these 
explorations, it is especially notoworthy that Transatlantic Go- 
‘Yornment advisors aro conspicuous for the broadth of thoir views 
in scientific mattors, as mere triangulation and mensuration epera- 

‘tions form but a small part of the published results, which indlade 
original Papera by competent authoritica on the geology, palm 
“ontology, metecrology, othnology, philology, zoology, and botany of 
tho districts traversed. 

Professor Hayden's Report of his operations in Colorado, published 
during tho past year, is probably tho most exhaustive of these 
surveys The entire circuit of Colorado has now been made by his 
Parties, and the altitudes fixed of the highest peaks of the Rocky 
Mountains (Blanco Peak, 14,464 foot, boing found to overtop all 
‘tho mst), The topographical portion of this Report i compara- 
tively small; but the accumulation of facts in every ancillary 
Branch of scionco is, as usual, astonishing, especially when it is 
yemembered that this profuscly-illustrated volume (of ome 500 

)) is but one of a series issued as fast as clroumstances will 
Permit by the office of the Geological and Geographical Survey. 
‘This departmont has in addition published various separate parts 
‘of its * miscellaneous publications,” containing much local gea- 
gmphical matter, and of its * Bulletin,’ of which the second volume 
is now well advanced; it has also recently issued throe thick 
4to, volumes on Palwontological and Natural History subjects con- 
ected with the survey, and all Mlustrated by very numerous platos 
and maps. Besides these, the special work of the survey has resulted 
ina considerable advanco in the progress of the Physical Atlas of 
Galoraio, of which, according to tho Prosident of tho American 
Geographical Socicty, 6 sheets, comprising some 70,000 square 
mailos, will bo izeuod shortly. 
In connection with these operations, Professor Powoll has sur- 
‘eyed 7000 square miles of the cast, and 4000 square miles of the

ledge of the small capabilities of that district for agricultural pur 
poses, owing to the slight rainfall, and of its rather more promising 

Lieutenant Wheeler, of the Engineer Department, United States 
Army, has continued his surveys west of the 100th meridian, in 
Novada, Now Mexico, and California, traversing 25,000 squaro 
miles, of which 9000 were in New Mexico, south-east of Santa Fé. 
His special aim appears to have been the investigation of the prac- 
ticability of diverting the River Colorado so as to ixrigate tho desert: 
lands of South-East California; and ho sppoars satisfied that a 
canal could be constructed by which 1600 squaro miles could bo 
flooded. Thirteen atlas sheets of this survey huve now been issued, 
on acales of 8 milos and 4 smiles to the inch, covering a large part 
of Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Moxico, and Colorado. Lieutenant 
Wheeler's general Report is of very comprehensive nature; and 
hho has also issued two thick 4to, Reports on the geology and zoology 
of tho survoy, with many coloured plates, maps and photographs, 

An accurate survey af the great North American lakes has boom 
carried on by General ©. B. Comstock, of the United States Kn- 
gincor Corps; in tho course of which the precise elevations of 
‘Ontario and ria havo been defined. Accurate positions have also 
been determined for each of the West Indian Talands by the Hydro- 
graphic Burean; the coast survey of the Gulf of Moxico has been 
continued ; and the continental triangulation has been pushed enst- 
ward from the Pacific coast ranges to the Sierra Nevada. 

In referring, however briefly, to the geographical work of our 
‘Transatlantic brothren, it must be considered a fitting opportunity: 
to offer our congratulations to the American Geographical Society, 
which, incorporated in 1862, has now fully attained its majority; and 
the occasion ia the more uppropriate,as the Society has recently 
acquired « new and commodious home, for which it is indebted to 
the public spirit and liberality so charactoristic of American citizens, 
Under the ablo direction of its distinguished Prosidont, Chief 
Justice Daly, whose eloquence and heartfelt regard for our favourite 
acience carmot fail to have impressed his hearers during his late: 
visit to this country, the American Geographical Society now 
numbers 1750 Fellows, and possesses a geographical library of some 
10,000 volumes and a large collection of maps, &c, 

Geogruphical operations on a largo sealo have beon engrossed by 
the State in America; but the numerous and valuable papers con~

tained in the 12 volumes of ‘ Proceedings,’ ‘ Bulletins,’ and ‘ Jour- 
nals’ issued by the Society since 1852, sufficiently attest the vitality 
of Geography in the country at large. 


Soura Awenica—Four papers descriptive of travel and research 
in remote and little known parts of the interior of this continent 
have been contributed to the Society during the year. Two of 
these, viz., Mr. Bigg-Wither, “On tho Valley of the Tibagy,” and 
Mr. Wells, on his journey from tho Rio St. Francisco to the Upper 
‘Tocantins, will appear in our‘ Journal,’ with original maps furnished 
by the authors. A third paper, containing accounts of the remark- 
able journey of Mr. Alfrod Simson across the dense forosts of Ecuador, 
from the Pastaza to the Napo, and of his voyage of 1200 milos up 
the River Putumayo, will appear in tho next number of our ‘ Pro- 
ceedings.’ Tho fourth is entitled, “Notes on Bolivia, to accompany 
original maps presented to tho Royal Geographical Society,” and is 
written by Mr. Musters, who distingnished himsolf a fow years ago 
by his adventurous journey through Patagonia, All theso papers 
will aid materially in filling up the still numerous gaps in our 
Knowledge of this great continent, and supplement the work that is 
being carried on by the different governments. 


Avnica.—Afrioa has been the subject of discussion at four ont of 
fifteen meetings held since our last Anniversary. The following 
papers have beon read on this inexhaustible theme :—“ The District 
of Akém, West Africa,” by Captain J. 8. Hay; “Tho Khedive's 
Expeditions to the Lake Districts,” by Colonel Gordon, ne. 
Gessi’s “ Circumnavigation of Albert Nyanza;” and “The Living- 
stonia Mission at Nyassa,” by Mr. Young; besides which numerous 
announcements have been made regarding other expeditions. Wo 
have also seen, in the columns of the ‘ Daily Telegraph,’ the graphic 
letters of Mr. Stanley, the Correspondent of that Journal and of the 
“Now York Herald,’ in Contral Africa. 

Colonel Gordon's Ezpeditions—Under the instructions and per- 
sonal superintendenco of this officer, a complete scientific survey of 
the Nile has becn made, commencing at Khartum, and ending at 
a point 40 miles distant from the northorn ond of Victoria Nyanza— 
a survey altogether of 1500 miles of river. . Three officers of our 
Royal Engincers, with M. Gossi, have accomplished this, namely, 
Colonel Gordon and Lieutenants Watson and Chippendall. The 
gud,” course, current, width of the river—the rocks, repids, and

nature of the country—have been Iaid down with minuteness, and 
two maps, on the scale of 35 miles to an inch, have been prepared 
for our Society from the original drawings of th above afficers 
‘Dhese maps will remain as standard references. 

Romolo Geasi how circumnavigate the Albert Lake with two 
iron boats built by Samuda Brothers, and states it to be 141 miles 
from north-cast to south-west, and from 40 te 60 miles across. 
Leaving Dufli by boat on the 7th of March, 1876, he arrived at the 
month of the Lake on the 18th of March. ‘Tho slow progress np 
this partof the river he attributed to contrary winds, incessunt rain, 
and river-currents. ‘The distance is 164 miles, along a deop, broad, 
navigable river, exceeding 700 yarde in inert ene ol! 
population and a productive country, on the western bank.

in the distance, On the shores of the Lake, forests of ambatch 
wore of frequent occurrence. The people on the western shore 
were not friendly, sounding their war-drums and carrying their 
property away; however, M. Geesi was able to bold conversations 
with a fow natives, the rosult of which seemed to prove that he had 
reached the farthest extremity of Albert Lake, and that there ia no 

» river feeding its southern extremity, At the same time, the moun- 
tains which ho saw on cither sido of tho Luke appoar not to moot at 
the south end, and there may exist a pawage for water to the south,

* —-M. Gossi remained ‘on the Lake from the 18th of March till 
the end of April; a period of stormy equinoctial days, for he ex= 
perienced constant rain and high winds. Ho has proved without 
a doubt that the Nile descends from Victoria Nyanza, enters the 
Albert Lake, and flows from it, at fourteen miles farther north, tor 
Dufli; thus sotting finally at rest the question of the direct con- 
nection of the Nile with these great Lakes, This queation was 
rashily disputed by Dr. Schweinfurth (seo President's Address of 
last year), although maintained by the late Captain Speke, and 
confirmed by Sir Samucl Baker. From tho smallness of his escort, 
and the uncertain character of the people, M. Gessi did not examine 
the interior of the country, neither could he closely observe the 
streams flowing into the Lake on the castern and western shores, 
but bo reports several watorfalla and bays, where the colour of the 
water indicated the proximity of considerable streams,

near M'rooli, his ha» since been visited by Colonel Gordon him- 
self, who has sketched its outline, as faras he obsorved it, on the 
‘map presented to the Society, which is published in the prosent 
Volume of the ‘Journal.’ Respeoting other travellers in this part 
of Africa, I may mention the following :—Signor Marno, after 
endeavouring to push south to the Balegga Mountains had returned 
toBgypt. Mr, Lucas intended tobave proceeded to the head-waters 
of the Congo from Gondokoro; but scvere illncas prevented this, 
‘and the unfortunate traveller died on his way to England, as I havo 
had oocasion to relate in the Obituary notices at the commencement 
‘of this Address, Dr. Schrietzor (Bmin Effendi) had visited King 
Mitem of Uganda, was well received, and confirmed tho previous. 
observation of Mr. Stanley that the King was favourable to 
‘Christianity. 

‘Tho Khedivo of Egypt has recently given to Colonel Gordon 

‘Supreme command oyer all the Sondan, from the second cataract, 
incleding Khartum, to the Equatorial region, with the view of 
suppressing slavery and developing all lawful commorce. He 
thas appointed him to negotiate a peace betweon Egypt and 
Abyssinia, and with this view Colonel Gordon has been at Mase 
sowah for some time; but this object is not accomplished, and we 
‘ope to boar of his having taken up his Governor-Generalehip of 
all the Soudan. 

General Stone, the chief of the general, staff at Cairo, has kindly 
teported to cur Society the various reconnaissances which have beon 
qmade undor his ordors and thove of Colonel Gordon in Egyptian

Betweon July 1875, and Angust 1876, Mr. Stanloy traversed by 
water, or on foot, from 1200 to 1500 miles; apse ais 

about 4 miles daily, inclusive of halts, which Is unnsually fast 
travelling in the interior of Africa, Since his letter of the 15th

Stanley's lotter from tho Island of Bambirch, Victoria Nyanza, 
Gescribos to us, with a map, the south-western corner of the Lake, 
‘Here are figured thirty-eight islands, from 1 to 10 miles from the 
shore; and tho Jargest of thor, Bambireh and Romeh, 12 miles in 
Jength by 2 or 3 in breadth. ‘Two soundings appear upon tho 
map, near Alice Island; the one next tho shore is 166 feet, and 
the other, 15 miles to tho south-cast, is 838 feet; showing that 
this Jako is navigable for any ship afloat,’ Having returned to his 
hoad-quarter camp at Kageby, he again crossed in a north-westerly 
direction to Dumo, in Uganda territory, and proceeded under « 
Waganda escort to explore the country between the Lakes Victoria 
and Albert. On entering Unyoro territory the pooplo naturally 
wore not friendly to Waganda ssldiers, and Mr. Stanley had no 
opportunity of navigating the Albert Lake, through the timidity of 
his Waganda, who feared the dense population of Wanyoro, But he 
oached a bay of the Lake, which he named “ Beatrice ;” and, com- 
pelled to give up all hope of navigating it, he turned his attention 
to the south, and after neveral Gays crossed the River Kitangule, 
for tho Arab settlement of Kufaro, in Karagweh. Mr. Staploy’a 
opinion of the Kitangule Kagera is as follows :—* While exploring 
the Victoria Lake, I ascended a few miles up the Kagera, and wax 
then struck with its volumo and dopth; #0 much so, as to rank it 
aa the principal affluent of the Victoria Lake. In coming south, 
cand crowing it at Kitangule, I sounded it, and found it 14 fathoms, 
or 84 feet deep, and 120 yards wide.” This river will be recog- 
nisod as tho same which was crossed in 1862 by Captains Speke 
cand Grant, and which they reported as a majestic ae 
river from the Akenyara Lake. 











Africa—Mr. Stanley's Expedition, oxelii 


_ While under the kind care of King Ramanyika, of Karagweh, 
‘Mr. Stanley made many important journeys to the west and south 
of the kingdom, visiting this great Lake district, and region of 
conical mountains and hot-springs, full descriptions of which 1 
‘must ask you to refer to in his graphio letters. From here he 
traversed tho districts of Western Unyamwezi; and wo next find 
him on tho 27th May at Ujiji. After « fortnight’s arranging, Mr. 
Stanley left his heavy baggage in charge of Pocock on the 11th 
Juno, aud proceeded to circumnavigate the Tanganyika Lake for 
fifty-cne days. Ho ostimatos the Lako to be 800 miles in ciroum- 
ference, and 19 milos longor than Commander Cameron rookoned it. 
‘The Lukuga Creek, of Cameron, was examined during four days. 
‘Tho broken cane in the bed of the creck denoted to Mr, Stanley 
that any wator must flow into tho Lake, and not out of it; and ho 
considers that tho Lakuga has never been an outlet, and is not at 
‘present one, but that it will be the “waste-pipe” of Tanganyika 
Jn @ few yoare, when the Lake bogine to ovorflow. Ho tolls us 
that Mr. Cooloy’s idoa of thoro boing a connection betwoon Tan- 
ganyika and Nyassa Lakes is as absurd as Livingstone having 
seperated Liemba from Tanganyika, Baker having married the 
Albert and Tanganyika, or Speko having msde an island of a 
promontory (Ubwari), Mr. Stanley raises an interesting question 
as to the name and dorivation of the word Tanganyika, saying 
that travellers havo fallon into mistakes through the ciroumstanco 
‘of the namo of the country being applied to the Lake. At Liemba 
‘the Lako is not called Tanganyika, or vice verad, The derivation of 
the word, uccording to Mr. Stanloy, is “ Plain-like Lake; but 
‘this is not accepted a» the true interpretation. Nyika is usod as a 
propor name in Africa, and as portion of one, as Rumanyika; also, 
‘it is applied on tho native routes west of Bahringo by the Rev. 
‘T. Wakefield og Mtonga-nyiko, which undoubtedly implios aswampy 
‘rogion. It significe tho floating waterplants, which produce edible 
roote—the " Singhara” of India, Trapa nalans ; and from the fact 
that this plant cxists plentifully in Africa, and that quantities of 
floating vegetation wero ecen by the late Dr. Livingstone opposite 
‘Tif, it may be taken as the more probablo interpretation af the 
two, namely, from Tanganya, to gather; and Nyika, (?) nuts: that 
%, “Tanganyika,” moaning “ collection of water vegetation,” or 

“tho habitat of tho water-nut.” 

_ ‘Mr, Stanloy writos of “my discovery of the now Inko and river,” 

‘which he ventures to name tho “* Aloxandra Lake and River.” He 

‘YOu. XLVI. n 





exeiy Sir Rornenrorp Atoocn’s Address, 


talls us that “ ho could not seo this lake from his mount of observa~ 
tion because the Mountains of Ugnfu intercepted all view of it; 
but his guides assisted him to understand the position of the Lake.” 
‘This water, we aro told, has three outlets—two flowing to the oast 
towards Kitangule, and the third to tho south, joining tho Ruzizi 
Lake, which ix made io discharge to Luke Tanganyika. ‘This 
roquires inspection, which we hope will soon be made by the 


Ono other remark regarding the Kagera. Mr, Stanley tella us that 
during the dry seuson it exceods in volume the “Thames and Severn 
united, and is 70, 80, and 120 feet in depth, with a width of 150 to 
200 yards; and, as it passos through the shallow Lako Ingoai, which 
ix 5, 10, and 14 milex in width, it sustained its dopth of 40 to 
60 feet.” But whether this river, or the Shimeeyu, or any other 
river flowing into tho Lake, is to bo considered a source or not— 
among #0 many, and all so distant from the Nile—the honour will 
still remain with the parentanother Victoria, 

My own opinion on this subject is much in accord with that 
of a well-informed writer in tho ‘New York Sun’ of the 15th of 
March last, and I cannot, perhaps, do better than quote his words:— 
“That he has verified Captain Speke’s delineation of the Victoria 
Nyanza, only proves tho oxcellont goographical results achieved by 
that officer; and Mr. Stanley deserves every credit for the minuto 
survey be has made of the Lake, which confirmed the accuracy of 
Coptain Spolso’s hypothesis, It isa pity ho should not haye been 
contout to rest upom these laurels, Instond of this, ho has assumed 
that if he can find out which of the numerous tributaries flowing 
into tho Victoria Nyanza is tho largest and longest, he will be 
entitled to claim that as the Nile, First, bo found tho Shimeeyn, 
and called that the source of the Nile. Unfortunately ho after- 
wards came upon a much larger affluent, called the Kagera, which 
ontirely ‘extinguished the Shimeoyu, and then ho called that the 
Alexandra Nile. But this river had been examined by Spoko and 
Grant; and it isa gross violation of all etiquette among explorers 
for a now namo to be given to it by a gentleman who visits it 











Africa—Mr. Stanley's Expedition, cxev, 


fiftoon years nftor its first discovery, and calls it the Alexandra 
Nile, in ordor that, should he ever discover its source, he may claim 
to have discovered the souroo of the Nile. In the first place, it is 
‘uot the Nilo, any more than @ stream running into Lake Superior 
‘can bo alled the St. Lawrence; and in the second place, if it waa 
the Nilo, ho has not discovered it. This he frankly admita, Had 
‘ho read Captain Speke’s book he would have found that that officer 
‘fully appreciates tho importance of the Kagora Rivor as probably 
‘tho largest affuont of the Victoria Nyanza; but he judged, and 
jndged rightly, that whoro a huge Inke is fed by hundreds of 
afilnents, sovernl of which are nearly of a size, tho river that 
runs out of it in not tho same river as any one of those affluents, » «+ 
‘Tho true Nile only bogins whero it issues from the Lake." 
* Mr. Stanlay would also have found, had he bad Captain Spoko’s 
Mook with him, that he advances nothing new with regard to the 
wat on the west, of the Victoria Nyanza, Speke lived for 
several wooks at Rumanyika’s, almost on the banks of the Kagera,

New Routes to Central Africa.—On the Zansibar side of Africa 
great strides aro boing made to open up tho interior to commoroe; 
bat we want the country more fully surveyod before stating what 
particular routes urs the best. On thi subject I would eall 
your attontion to the excellent paper by Mr, B. THatchinson (of 
the Church Missionary Socioty), published in tho ‘ Journal of the 
Society of Arts,’ March 30th, 1877. No doubt there is ample 
room in so extensive a region, from north to south and from east 
to west, for half-a-dozen routes. The line from Formosa Bay by 
the River Dana and Mount Konia to Victoria Nyanga would ro~ 
commend itself as the shortest to this great lake; bat, till a 
survey has been made of it, we cannot say whether tho country 
or tho inhabitants are such as to render such a routo practicable. 
Sooner or later, howover, it must be one of the principal ones to 
the north end of Victoria Lake. Proceeding further south to Mom

on the 14th of April Inst, en route for Lake Tanganyika, vik 
M'papwa. The good service rendered by tho Rev. Roger Price 
—in having successfully travelled to M'papwa with four bullocks 
for the purpose of ascortaining whether the route was suitable 
for the employment of these animals—is most commendable: ho 
found by actual experiment that it Se perfectly fousible to take « 

from the Eastern Sea-coast up to the Central Plateau, 
and that there is neither jungle nor swamp, hill nor tsetse-fly, to 
hinder ouch a course, ‘T'his marks a now ora in African travel ; for 
if the impediment of porters can be got over by any means, whether 
by ballock-carts, or, which we have more faith in, camels us beasts

employ the men in other ways. 

‘We were rejoiced on the 26th of February last to have Mr. E. D. 
‘Young once more amongst us, and to hear from him an account of 
his latest journey to Africa, ‘He has successfully estublished tho 
Missionary party, sent out with splendid liberality by the Scottish 
Free Church Mission Committee, at “Livingstonia,” on the southern 
shores of Nyassa; ond has been the first to launch a steamer on 
the wnters of an African lake. Aftor an absence of twenty-one 
months, he has returned, in nowise impaired in health or energy 
by the work he performed. The chiof interest in his Journey to us 
Geographers is that the Lake is found to be 100 miles longer than 
‘Dr. Livingstone supposed it to be. We may also congratulate 
ourselves on the fact that Mr. Young has made « treaty between 
the Makololo and the Maviti, or Watata of Spoke, The latter are 
& wandering and plundering set of thieves and murderers, who 
range along the Nyaa Lake, extond to Tanganyika, and have 
eyon cronsed tho route between Unyanyembe and Usui. ‘They are 
a very numerous class, of no particular race; and if this alliance 
made by Mr. Young holds good, and woro extended to thom all, 
trade and tho industry of the regular inhabitants would have « 
better chance of succceding. 

German Exxpeditions—Dr, Lenz returned to Hamburg from the 
Ogowé and Guboon region, West Africa, on the 27th of January 
last, bis farthest point having beon a waterfall beyond Lonju on

‘he obtained much information regarding the countries between 
the Kasai and Quango, and mado considerable collections of in- 
sects and plants, besides getting sixteen skulls of numerous races 
of the interior. Musumbo, which had never before been visited by 
any explorer, lies many days’ journoy to the north, and west of 
Osmeron’s line of march. Dr. Pogge thinks that the River Kasai 
‘ig the main focdor of the Congo, and that the Lualaba belongs to 
the Ogowé systom, but this is disputed by othor authorities. 

_ Herr Edward Mobr, who came to England last year, and was 
‘present at our Anniversary Dinner, is said to have died of fever on 
the 26th of November, 1876, at Melanje. ‘hero was also a rumour 
of his having been poisoned, Wut we bave no particulars as to his 
exoct desth. He had reached St. Paul de Loundo om the 28th 
of August Inst, and left for Melanje upon the Ist of September. 

Turning to the Hast Coast of Africa, we learn that Dr. G. A. 
Fischer and Herr A. Donhardt (an engineer) were to proceed to 
Yuoribar last December, in the hope of ascending either the River 
‘Dana or Ozy, noar Formosa Bay, and penetrating id Kenia to the 
Vietoria Lake. This is one of the most imporlant routes, as pre~ 
viously stated, in East Africa; and, if the people in the interior 
Prove hospitable, great results may be expected from opening up 
this, perhaps tho most fertile region in Africa, being within « 
degree or so of the Equator. They are to introduce a novel mode 
of communication—carricr-pigeous. Herr J. M. Hildebrandt also 
proceeds in this journey to tho Lake. 

‘Dr. Ervin von Bary roports in Docember last, to the German 
African ‘Society, that he wax on hix way to Jebel Ahaggur, in the 
Tuareg country; but in consequence of disturbances there, he has 
ultered his plan, and purposes reaching Timbuctoo by « moro

tho Italian corvette Scilla last March, we hope the Marquis will 
not be detained in proceeding upon his very important journey to 
Victoria Lake, but, meantime, he had met with a gan-shot accident.

reminding us of their former glory in Geography, voted the sum of

Address to give effect to tho desiro of the Council to promote, 
to the extent of thoir powor, tho continuous and systematio oxplo- 
ration of Africa, and more especially of that lange region extending 
from the Equator to the Caps of Good Hope. After the Mocting 
of tho Conforence at Brussela in September 1976, at the invita- 
tion of the King of the Belgians, and from that time, the subject 
has engaged the serious attention of the Council. Unable by the 
Charter of tho Socicty, and tho declared objects of its constitution, 
to enter upon any undertaking not strictly Geographical, it was 
found impossible for them to take part in the International Orga- 
nisation inaugurated at the Brussels Conference for much larger 
objects, They were reluctantly, therefore, obliged to decline 
‘entering into the plans for affiliated and international labour in 
this field, and to form a separate Committee, under the title of an 
“African Exploration Fund Committee,” acting under the direc- 
tion of the Council, and independent of all International or other

sanctioned will mect with a ready response over a wide area, not

‘L—On the Buried Cities in the Shifting Sands of the Great 
Desert of Gobi, By Sie T. Doveras Forsyru, 6.0.6.1. 
(Read, November 18th, 1876,) 


Amona the ae objects of interest which attracted our 
attention during the late mission to Kashghar, not the least 
interesting was an inquiry regarding the shifting sands of the 
Great Desert of Gobi, and the reported existence of ancient 
cities which had been buried in the sands ages ago, and which 
are now gradually coming to light. 

When Mr, Johnson returned in 1865 to India from his ven- 
turesome to Khotan, he brought an account of bis visit 
to an ancient city not far from Kiria, and five marches distant 
from Khotan, which had been buried in the sands for centuries, 
and from which gold and silver ornaments, and even bricks of 
tea were dug out. 

‘On the occasion of the first mission to Yarkund in a.p, 1870, 
we were unable to gather much information, and I observe 
that in Mr. Shaw's book, * Travels in High Tartary,’ no allusion 
to the subject is made. Tura Chund, the energetic Sikh mer- 
chant whom Mr. Shaw mentions, and who accompanied me on 
both my expeditions, told me that this exhumed tea was to be 
found a the Yarkund bazaar, but as our stay in that city in 
1870 was of very short duration, and wo had no opportunity 
‘of moving about and making inquiries for ourselves, we re 
turned to India with very vague ideas on the subject. On my 
#econd visit in 1878, I determined to make more searching 
ae, ‘and for this purpose I endeavoured to collate all the 
i jon obtainable from published works, as well as from

knowledge of the whole circumstances of our position, have 
chafed at the loss of tly easy opportunities for adding to

‘will porhaps throw some light on the matter, and explain what 
the reviewer considers to be unaccountable negligenes on my 
part. war friendly an Asiatic may be, he is proverbially

duly related in his ‘High Tartary, Yarkund, and Kashghar,’ an 
‘ing record of hes adventures and of difficulties overcome 
bya! mixturé of boldness and diplomacy with patience 
and humour, gives instances of the disappointments to 
wi he was subjected, and he has often recounted to me the 
manner in which he was tantalised with expectation of imme- 
diate liberty of action; but always to be disappointed at the 
moment of fruition. During his first visit to Yarkund and 
Kashghar he was kept a prisoner inside the four walls of his 
house or in his tent, and never entered the city at all. This 
, # circumstance in no way to be wondered at, but 
when he revisited the country as the Political Agent depated

he mage be sure of enjoying the fruit of newly established 
relations with the Ameer, I fully expected that he would travel 
about the country and accomplish what we had lett undone.

During my ascent the pass was covered with snow which lay on 
the mountain sides three or four versts below the crest. 
reflection of the light was blinding. My horse continually 
slipped on the down-trodden snow, yet I reached the top without 
dismounting. For pack-animals and for weal horses this pass 
is somewhat dangerous, as was evidenced by many a carcass 
lying in the procipices, Tho summit of the pass is height 
of 1,800 feet the crest is very narrow, having the ay set 
of a wall about 28 inches thick. It is formed by a sort of opening 
(about 35 or 42 feet wide) between a couple of peaks eloyen

and Amb6hitsivélané at the foot of the fortress hill. Ho 
‘was treated mast kindly and hospitably, but was carefully and 
constantly watched. ring his detention ho kept his eyes 
open, and observed ee things of interest. THe says :— 

“From the summit of a hill overlooking Ambéhitsivélina T 
obtained a good view of Ikongo. It consists of a long, flat- 
topped hill, vory precipitous on all sides, especially on the 
west and north, where the faces of the cliffs are perpondicular 
masses of smooth ite. The hill is about five miles long, 
and about 1000 or 1500 fect above the lovel of the plain, On

‘on the top of the hill as in tha valloy, whilst the only ascent is

fear nothing, these towns aro not oceupied to any great extent,

“Tho women here (he says) cannot weave; and the only 
covering of the people consists of mats and bark beaten out 
into a thin sheet. Every man travelling for cven a short

Mr. Shaw had at length a most friendly reception from 
Ratsiandréofana, the king of Tkongo, and it was arranged that 
teachers should bo sént to instruct his people. In June 1865

_ the fourth were more wearisome both to us and our men than 
any other portion of our journey from first to last. I should 
suppose that the plain of Ankavindra is about 20 miles across, 
but there rons the middle of it a of very low 
hills, which seem mostly comprised of sand, with lege numbers 
of quartz and other pebbles rounded by the action of water, and 
the wholo thinly covered with short grass. What had been 
the previous state of this wide plain, and under what cireum- 
‘stances the water had acted upon these pebbles (we could not 
see the slightest trace of shells or former animal life) we often 
tried to imagine, but could come to no conclusions ; but tho 
effect of the pebbles on the fect of our men was unmistakable, 
ond two weary days we spent in getting over them. Not that 
the whole journcy was a wilderness. We crossed a large river, 
the Itondy, which forms a very important branch of the 
Minambélo, and this was See: by luxuriant vegetation ; 
‘and at the close of the second day's journey from Deeeriasiese 
‘just as the sun was setting and whilst still near this river, we 
‘were for a while quite at a loss to know how we were to get 
through the tall prickly reeds, which, with a small but deep 
stream of water, seemed effectually to stop our progress.” 

After another weary journey over the stony plain, and con- 
tinued struggle with ihe recds and nettles, they reached 
Tindinandiza. The river they found 150 feet lower than the 
Manambélo at Ankavdndra; but the town is on a low hill, and 
on the same level as the latter. 

“On Monday we ascended a hill to the south of the town, 
that we might be able to soe the large river which runs to the

IV.—On the Distriéution of Salt in the Ocean, as indicated by 

the Specific Gravity of its Waters. By J. Y. Buowanax, 

Chemist and Physicist in the Challenger Expedition. 
(Bead, March 12th, 1877] 

Dounra the cruise of the Challenger 1 made a continnous and 
extensive geries of obsorvations on the specific gravity of the 
seawater, with instruments constructed under my own direc 
tions, and calibrated by myself. ‘Tho instrument used for all 
the determinations was a glass hydrometer, weighing 160-0405 
grammes, with stem divided rs 100 millimetres, and of such

of 08607 cubic centimetre. The coefficient of expansion of the 
instrument was Seedy determined; and as it was 
‘on all occasions to |, certainly to one division, and 
on all ordinary occasions to half n division, the determinations 
aro to be relied on to the extent of 5 in the fifth decimal place. 
‘The weight of the instrament could be increased by addition of 
weights on the top of the stem. The reetltay iso Ae ae

that I found the data in this table confirmed by numerous

the most favonrable circumstances, ‘Che wntt adopted has 
boon the density of distilled water at 4 0. In using the word 
saltiness as equivalent to specific gravity at standard tempera

; at the sume time it must be observed that we only 
make uso of this equivalence between yery narrow limits 
(1:024-1'028), within which it undoubtedly holds without 
ible error, As in this Paper we are occupied more with 
the relative than with the absolute amount of salt in different 
perts of the ocean, it is not of much importance for us to know 
what amount of salt actually does correspond to a given specific 
jity; but it may be here noted that, according to Erman’s 
investigations, the weight of salt in 1000 parts of

‘The source of the salts existing in sea-water is rock-substance 
which has boen disintegrated and decomposed by atmospheric 
influences. ‘The soluble components or products washed out 
by the rain, and collected in the streams and rivers, are eventu- 

ly poured into the sea. Hero the water is subjected to the 
action of the sun and winds, which causes it to evaporate, leavin,

is carried inland, and condensed on the mountains, washing out 
‘the rock and taking up a freeh charge of solid matter which it 
brings down into the sea, which is thus the great receptacle of 

land. As we know that all rivers, at present, hold

water in the centre of the North Atlantic, between the parallels 
ef 15° and 30°, is denser than on the eastern side, but it is also 
denser than on the western side. 








On his outward voyage, Lenz's course lay further to the 
eastward than that of the Challengor, and, consequently, he did 
not observe the same high specific gravity. T'rom the fortiath 
to the cighteenth parallels his observations show a very constant 
mean specific gravity of 10270. In the centre the two sets of

Mohn of Christiania for a vory admirable serios of obsorva- 
tions made during the Norwegian Expedition last summer, 
A uniform specific gravity of 10262 to 10264 was met 
with between Shetland and Iceland. Further to the west this 
warm salt water is displaced by the cold fresh water coming 
down from polar regions and creeping along tho American 
shore ax the so-called “cold wall” down to comparatively low 
Jatitudes, The waters of the Gulf Stream belong to the warm 
and salt waters of the Atlantic; consequently, when it is entered 
from the west or south, no apparent or marked change is observed 
in the colour, teraperature, or sultness of the water. When, 
however, it is approached from the other side, as by re 
leaving American ports, the change is very marked from the 
grec, turbid, cold and fresh polar waters of the “ cold wall” to 

¢ deep transparent blue waters of the warmer ocean. ‘ho 
Gulf Stream was crossed twice, once off Sandy Hook and the 
second time off Halifax. The specific gravity on the latter 
occasion wax 1-0271, which is identical with the mean specific 
‘ree of the water derived from all the observations made 

ween St. ‘Thomas, W.L, Bermuda and the Azores. 

‘The equatorial minima observed in the Challenger were 
10260 in 8° x. both outward and homeward, by Lenz 1-025] in 
7° 30' x. outward, and 102575 in 2° x. homeward-bound. On 
the outward voyage he appears to have crossed two streams or 
layers of pecasealy fresh water, separated bya narrow stratum 
of water of the ordinary specific gravity of 10261. It ia 
worthy of remark, that wherever we touch the counter equa- 
torial currents, and we may include the Guinea Current among 
them, we find fresher and warmer water than outside of them, 
On the outward voyage the Challenger sailed along the equator 
from the meridian’ of 14° w. to that of 30° w, in the course of 
the south equatorial current; the specific gravity was found to 
rise from 1:0260 in the east to 1°0268 in tho weet, where the 
heavy water of the south-east trade-wind region was crossed as 
it onterod tho North Atlantic. 

Tn the South Atlantic we have as in the North the maximum 
inthe heart of the trade-wind region, but it is situated con- 
siderably nearer the equator than is the case in the North. It 
is algo lower on the east side than it is on the west; the absolute 
maximum, however, is on the west side, being 102785 off the

In the Pacific tho distribution of tho salinity differs con-

munication with the ocean, 

The vertical distribution of saltness is shown in diagrams of 
sections; one pag nian, a meridian in the Atlantic, and 
another along a in the Central Pacific, 

‘The Atlantic section (vide Diagram) shows the distribution of 
saltness along acentral meridian os to 30° w. long.) from 32° x. 
to 32° s, lutitudes by means of equi-saline lines, the vertical area 
included being that between the surface and 2000 fathoms, or 
the bottom where it occurred at « less depth than 2000 fathoms, 
Above this section is a diagram representing the distribution of 
surface-saltness along the same meridian. Both of them show 
in a very marked way the effect of climate on the saltness of 
the sea, not only at the surface where its effect is directly fe 
bat even down to the bottom, at two or three thousand fathoms, 
If we consider the vertical section, we see the line of 10270

5 sin lat. 12° 8, thon rising very gently till it oi 
out in lat. 29°, In the North Atlantic it leaves the surface tn 
14° lat,, reaches a maximum depth of 200 fathoms in 25° lat. 
then gently rises and crops out probably about 40° lat. The 
area pastor station may be said to extend from about 

8. to . lat, but the specific gravity, especially of the 
surface-water, varies greatly, owing to the violence of the 
currents, as woll as to the annual oscillation of the equatorial 
rain-belt, The equi-saline line of 1:0265 is found in Int, 32° s, 
ata depth of 75 fathoms, and sinks to a depth of 160 fathoms in 
lat. 17°, It varies but little in depth until the equator is 
crossed, when it reeurves in latitude 3°». at a depth of 70 
fathoms, and crops out at the equator. It leaves the surface 
in 7° s., and descends steadily till in lat, 82°. it has reached 
adepth of 450 fathoms; further north it no doubt recurves 
downwards, for here we find it sloping downwards from 1500 
fathoms in 32° y. to 2000 fathoms. The equi-saline line of 10260 
starts from a depth of 250 fathoms in lat. 32° s,, remains almost 
ly horizontal with a slight upward tendency as far north 
as lat, 5"5., when it turns downwards, recurying about lat, 24°, 
and reaching the bottom, 1500 fathoms, in 16° s. lat, It doas 
not reach the surface at all in our diagram, the nearest ap- 

ach to it being a trough of water under 1-0261 between 
"and 3°. Jat. I havo little doubt that if our observations 
had enabled us to carry our diagram further north, the 1-0265 
line would have been seen to have a similar form. Every one 
raust necessarily be struck by the similarity between ihe dips of 
the equi-saline and the isothermal lines, which descend in the

Atlantic from south to north (without, however, recurring in the 
cuse of the isothermals). 

If we consider only the water in the first 200 to 300 fathoms 
from the surface, we observe a very marked general law in the 


ing decided tration, as 
Cae it is above 1°0270, the specific gravity of the water 
decreases as the depth increases; while in the equatorial regions, 
where the water suffers marked and continuous dilution, tho 
specific gravity first increasea with the depth, the maximum

surface in lat.7° x. In the North Pacific it reaches the surface 
in 23° and 83° n., attaining a depth of 100 fathoms in lat, 28°x. 
The very low surface specific gravity observed in lat. 9° n. is 
purely superficial, and does not affoct the mean specific gravity 
of the water at the position at all. As in the Atlantic, the 
minimum specifle gravity is found usually at a depth of about 
1000 fathoms, but m the Pacific we have light water approach- 
ing pe Syetion from both sides, whilat in the Adantic it occurs 
ina ed degree only from the south; and in the North 
Pacific by consequence the mean specific gravity is lower than 
in the south, the contrary being the case in Atlantic, and

__ In general, then, it will be seen from these diagrams that, as 

a rule, the ifie grevity diminishes from the surface down to 

a depth of 800 or 1000 fathoms, and then increases towards the

both currents are affected by the tides, being, indeed, at cortain 
times reversed in their direction, still the balance is decidedly 
in favour of an inflow of comparatively fresh surface-water, and. 
an outflow of sult bottom-water; and he recognised the presence

Judging from the observations made on board the German 
ehip, there are indications of the existence of a similar 
region in the Indian Ocean. The observations made on the 

ific gravity of the bottom-water shows a very marked chi 

about latitude 43° s, In 45°. the specifle gravity is 1-02: 
the same as I observed all over the Southern Ocean. In 42s, 
however, the specific gravity ix 102617, and increases towards 
the north, being as high ax 102682 near Mauritins, the surface 
being only 102624 at the same place. In a sounding in 1900 
fathoms just off the Agulhas bank, I observed a bottom specific 
gearity of 102611, which could only have come from the 

indian ‘The surface-water of this ocean ix not remark= 
ablo for saltness: indeed, in the equatorial part it is very 
much below the average of Pacific equatorial water. There 
is, however, one region in the northern part of this ocean, in 
which concentration gocs on with very great vigour, namely, in 
the Red Sea; and just ax the evaporition of the water in the 
Mediterranean varies the specific gravity of the deep water of 
the North Atlantic, so may the Red Sea furnish concentrated 
water to the depths of the Indian Ocean. An objection ae 
be raised to this source of the heavy water observed by tho 
Gazelle between Mauritius and Australia, from the fnet, that 
‘the temperatare of the bottom-water was not above the normal, 
whereas water coming from the Red Sea must enter the 
Indian Ocean with a temperature of 70°F. The effet of con- 
centration in raising the temperature in the subsuriace-water of 
this ocean is very evident; in lat. 24° 41's. the mean tempera- 
ture of the water down to 1500 fathoms was 8° O, (46-4° I’, 

In the Pacific, as wo have seen, the amount of concentration 
which goes on in the northern part is insignificant, a ciroum- 
stance which is due no doubt to the openness of its basin 
allowing free interchange of water, and to tho focbloness of the 
north-east trades, During one-half of the year too, the south.

the discovery of borax, or rather since borax has become a con- 
siderable article of trade between Tibet and Hindustan, the 
inhabitants of Nakebang now find a good market for it in the 
Nari Khorsum district, from which place they derive their 
supplies of grain instead of, as formerly, from Turkistin.” 
Sondém Darka had alo on one occasion, some thirty years ago,

nomadic pastoral Neate who obtained grain (rice and flour) 
from the neighbourhood of Karka, a large monastery said to be 
ten or twelve days’ journey beyond the southern frontier of the 
Ajun country, Near Karka is a large city called Kokod, the 
residence of the Sokpo Gyalpo, the ruler of the Sokpo districts,

is the residence of the Yapchan 'Tidmba (or Ringboché), the 
spiritual head of the Sokpo Kalmucks. ‘The road just de-

little between 15,000 and 16,000 feet above the sea-level. “The 
plain is, as a rule, confined between mountains which run 
parullel to the direction of the road, but a few transverse ridges 
of considerable elevation are crossed en route. The drainage all 
tends to the north, the streams from the snowy range to the 
south finding their way into numerous large lakes, which eithor 
lie in the sanga traversed by the Pundit, or are enclosed in 
similar xangs to the north. “These Inkes are the characteristic 
features of the country, and the Pundit may well be proud of tho 
di and survey of such a numerous and extensive system. 
Of the whole series, extending from Noh to Lhdsa, the only 
one that has hitherto been known to peverschiens is the Nam 
Cho or Tengri Nur at the extreme east, which, although its 
position with icin to Lhésa was approximately known, and

appears on the whole not improbable that the first of 
the Pundit’ statement may be risers viz. that the Nachos 
kha River flows to Tsiamdo; if so, it bears successively the 
names of La-chu, Lo«cha, and Lanthsang-Kiang, which, accord- 
ing to most modern authorities, is afterwards known ag the 
Camboja or Mekhong River. 
If, however, Klaproth’s well-known map is to be relied on,*

given), does nat flow to T'siamdo, but forma the head-waters of

To show the deficioney of correct data about these subjects, 
I may note that the map accompanying the French edition of 
Huc's book shows the Na Ptcha iver a8 flowing west into a 
Jarge lake, while Tsiamdo is not shown as on a river at all; but 
on the other hand from Hue's own lett we Jearn that f 
“Tsiamdo is protected by two rivers, tho Dzi-chu and the 
Om-chu, which, after flowing one to the east and one to the

Yunnan and Cochin China, and finally throws i ‘into the

tion of Huc’s account, 1 was much surprised at finding that 
Keith Johnston in his map of China in his ‘Handy

Cheting is a large town on the right bank of the Yalong, a 
considerable affluent of the Brabmay onits right bank, It 
contains two large monasteries, in which reside 700 Lémas. 
From Meo the Pundit’s road lay up the Yélung, through a 
rich and fertile valley, which contains numerous villages and 
monasteries scattered about on both sides of the stream. The 
country is productive, and contains numerous fruit-trees, 
principally apricots and pears; wheat and barley are abundant, 
as well as peas, and many other kinds of vegetables. There is 
food gresing on the mountains which border the valley, but the 

of sheep is very amall. 

From Chetéing to the Dalétang plain at the head of the 
yalley is 36 miles. In addition to numerous scattered villages 
of ten or twelye houses each, the large towns of Naitong and 
Chukydé Phuting are passod en route. From the Délitang La 
to the Karkang Lé the road traverses for 15 miles a grass; 
platean between 15,000 and 16,000 foet above sea-level, throug! 
which flows a stream which takes its rise in springs, and ulti- 
mately finds its way into the Brahmaptitra below C) 5 
‘On this clevated region, which extends for a considerable dis- 
tance to the west, the Pundit again found himself amongst the 
Dogpas or nomad population. itis by the Karkang Pass to the 

of the plain that the main Himalayan watershed is 
crossed. On reaching it the Pundit states that a magnificent 
view presented itself, The whole of the foreground was occu- 
pled Vy gently undulating grassy plains, over which, on the 
north-west, at a distance of but a few miles, rise the very con- 
xpicnous group of snowy peaks called Yiéla Shimbo, Other 
snowy peaks beyond the Brahmaputra appeared topping the 
plateau tothe north, while east and west and south snowy peaks 
rose in every direction, but at great distances off. 

From the watershed, which is 16,210 feet above sea-level, the 
road to the Kyd Kya Li, a pass about 70 miles farther south, 
traverses a high undulating plateau which ia bounded on its west 
bya well marked snowy ee which runs nearly due north and

great Tength s this was drawn together behind and then allowed 
to hang down. 

The Pundit reached Tiwing on the 24th of December, and 
was detained there till the 17th of February, having been unable 
to get permission to tothe south, ~ It appears that some 
fow years ago the Téwing Limas had represented to the Lhisa 
officials that their subjects suffered much in pocket from the 
Lhisa merchants being allowed to trade direct with Assam, and 
thi at ast acne ne ing an order from Lhésa that 
traders from that place should not be permitted to proceed beyond. e 
the limit of the a Jongpon's jurisdiction, ¢ Tiiwingpas 
have thus succeeded in keeping in their own hands nearly the 
whole of the trade with Assam, and they systematically prevent 
all strangers from passing through their country. 

Leaving Tawéng on the 17th of eee the Pundit reached 
Odélguri in British territory on the Ist of March, the road being 
often deep in snow, while four py had to be crossed en route ; 
of these passage of the Sai Ai and the Menda La were some- 
what difficult on account of snow, Details of the road are given 
in the Pundits itine at the end of the Paper, 

At Odélguri the Pundit put himself in communication with 
the Assistant Commissioner of the Darrang rr who kindly 
made all the necessary arrangements for forwardi sie to 
Gauhati, whence he went by steamer to Calcutta, w place 
ho reached on the 11th of March, 1876. 


Bofore closing this Paper it may be well to recapitulate the 
chief results of the Pundit's last exploration. 

Tn addition to the general information acquired, which has 
been communicated in the narrative, the Pundit has made a 
very careful and well-executed route ee of the whole line 
of country traversed, viz, 1013 miles from Lukong (west end of 
Pangong Lake) to Lhdsa, and 806 miles from Ihésa to Odalguri. 
Of this total distance of 1319 miles, throughout which his 

ings and bewrings were carefully recorded, about 1200 miles 
fis through country which has nevor previously been explored, 
Numerous lakes, some of enormous size, and some rivers, have 
been discovered; the existence of a yast snowy range lying 
ae to and north of the Brahmapttra River has been clearl; 
lemonstrated, and the positions of several of its peaks have 
been laid down, and their heights approximately dotermined. 

The Brahmaynitra has been followed for n distance of 30 
miles in a portion of its course, 50 miles lower down than the 
lowest point previonsly determined; and as its approximate 
direction for another 100 miles has been laid down, the abso~ 
Tately unknown portion of that mighty river's course now re~

‘VI—WNoles on the Duke of York Group, New Britain, and New 
Treland. By Rev. G. Browx. 


I anmtvep at Port Hunter, Duke of York Island, on August 
15th, 1875, in the missionary brig John Wesley, and left by the 
same vessel on August Sst, 1576, During the months I 
resided there we were in constant daily communication with 
the natives, and ae and whale-boat made man 
journeys to New freland and New Britain, visiting the fees 
and residing for some time amongst them. 

‘Lhe Expedition, which was d under my charge, was 
organised by the Australasian Wesleyan Met ist Missionary 
Society, for the purpose of establishing a mission in those 
islands, if found practicable; and for this pu T was accom- 
panied by eight Fijian and two Samoan native teachors, with 
‘their wives and families, 

On landing at Port Hunter, a small house was cut and 
erected by the crew of the mission vessel and the teachers; 
coals and a few stores were landed, and then the vessel sailed 
Yor Sydney, leaving us a small steom-launch ond boat for 
exploring and visiting the adjacent islands. It formed no part 
of the original plan ‘hat the writor should remain on the frou, 
and uo suitable provision was made for such purpose; but on 
arrival Mtpnmeth gk bated I la aS eRe pean to 
remain with the teachers. Had this been foreseen, some 
supplies, stores and instraments, of which we often felt the want, 
would have been taken with us. 

Duke of York Feland, as it is maths called on the charts, 
is really a small group of twelve i » seven of which are 
inhabited. Makada, farthest island to the N.w., lies in 
4°°7 8, and about 152° or 153° =. long. I had no chart by mo 
from which to obtain the correct longitude; but a chart was 

during our residence in the group by Mr. Blohm, and 
was forwarded by me to the Admiralty. is about 
24 miles in length, and is the highest land in the group, It is 

from the Duke of York Island by a channel or 
about a mile and balf in width, and Cn from 6 to 17 
fathoms in depth. ‘lwo small islands, calle iit, lie off the 
WE. entrance to this lagoon, and are only separated from each 
other and from the to fangor islands of Makada and Dake of 
York by narrow channels. Tho lagoon thus formed is called 
Port Ferguson. It is well sheltered and protected from all 
prevailing winds, ‘There is another entrance to it from the 
‘west side, with good channel for ships, ‘The soundings between 
tho reef of Makada Island and the emall island of Maiit were

strongly to the south-east. During some of these montlis, espe- 
cially January and February, it wax very strong indeed, und 
the channel between Duke of York Group and New Ireland was. 
covered with trees, which, from the number and size of the 
barnacles adhering to them, and the gone of crustacea and. 
fishes in and about them, must have been a long time in the 
water. The current, I believe, changes during south-east 
monsoon, setting north-west in that scason, but not running eo

beach below high-water mark at several places, but the only 
tance of anything parker in ing or small stream on 
uke of York Island wus observ. i exporng the inlet from 
Port Weeloy, which we were not able to tollow to its head, nor 
to descrile the course of accamately, from having no compass 
in the canoe. The inlet seemed to terminate in thick man- 
grove swamps, with a small stream of fresh water issuing from 
it atlow water. ‘The natives, however, report another stream of 
good water as issuing on the beach ontside the western entrance 
to Port Wesley. The islands in. this group consist. of coral 
limestone, and rise at most parts abrupily trom. the water in 
steep perpendicular oliffs. ‘The whole of tho islands are densely 
led and very fertile, though tho soil is not at all deop. 


{On Now Ireland we visited some of the villages on many 
different occasions, and examined « line of coast extending from 
Metlek, near Cape Bougainville, on the east coast, to a point to 
the north of Cape Gevry, on the west coast, ‘This is about 150- 

of coust-line. We also crossed the island from west to east,

‘The island is not well delineated on existing charts The 
range from Kalil (x.x.e, of Port Hunter, Duke of York Group) 
adlly sl down to the north, and when near Capo 

wry is much narrower than described on the chart; in fact, 
at a place called Knrumut it is not, I believe, more than one

again very abruptly, and trends away to the north-weat.

are strictly “tabu ;” but in pee eee rained us

the cages to be opened, that we might see the inside of them, 
though the old woman who was sent for to undo the fastenin;

the chief all the gil to come ont to receive a few presents 
of beads which I held out as an inducement to them, and we 
then saw the inside of the of which there were three, 
cach containing a girl. About three fect from the ground there 
was, in each strncture a small of bamboo erected, and on 
this the inmate had to sit or crouch, as there was not room to 
Tie down. There was nothing in the cages except some joints 
of bamboo, filled with water, of which we were told the girls 
drank « large quantity. The atmosphere inside was hot and 
stifling, and it seems go incredible that human beings could + 
exist for any length of time in such Places, that it was only 
after ited inquiries that I could believe it to be a fact, 
When the girls got ont to come for tho beads I held out, the 
old womin who attended them placed pieces of bamboo on the 
ground for them to walk upon, as their feet must not touch tho 
ground all the time they are in confinement. When they told 
U5 that one of the girls had been eo confined for more than five 
and had never been outside the house during all thax: years, 
could scarcely credit the assertion, and it was’ only ‘after 
inquiries and cross-questionings that I found that

sider that these three structures were inside a house with clused

through which very little wind could pass, we may form some 
idea of the state of the utmosphere inside of them in such a 
latitude as this. :

‘They vary in colour somewhat, but are principally of a 

brown colour, with matted, curly bair, which vari 
to dark brown colour. It forms strong matted curls, 
they stiffen and daub with red paint and clay, and occasionally 
with black paint. ‘The average stature of the males is about 5 foot 
6 inches, th many of the New Ireland men were over 6

spare build, very few of them being inclined to corpulence.

naked. On all the islands the natives are nearly always at 
feud with each other, and very few indeed ever go far from 
their own districts, except to a few villages with which they 
establish trading relations. The Duke of York people visit 
several districts in New Britain and New Ireland in this way. 
‘They rarely move from their houses without arma; but they 
do not seem to have any regular system of warfare, nor do they 
often meet in open figi but depend principally on surprises, 
surrounding and conquering some few of the enemy by over-

‘observations by tho latter accordingly. Not: hi had an

precious aan, which are valued at two ion dolla. The 
custodia or plate of the cathedral is also very rich, and there 
aro some very fine religious paintings, some of which are 
attributed to Murillo, The upper class of people are more 
aristocratic in their ideas, better-mannered, drossed, and 
speak purer Spanish than’ in the other cities of the Republic, 
und, in fact, than in most of the South American towns. Tt is 
really quite astonishing to see the good taste with which the 
ladies in general turn out for a ball, and it must be also borne 
in mind that most of them make their own drosses, as there 
are no milliners. The men not employed in the different 
eourts of justice or in Government offices, with the exception of 
two or three wealthy mining proprictors, generally occupy 
themselves in commerce. 

Several of the richest merchants are either foreigners or 
direct, descendants of foreigner, generally French or Spanish 
Basques. Amusementa are almost nil. Now and then an 
amateur theatrical performance takes place in an old church 
that has been converted into # theatre, but during the whole 
of my residence no professional company ever performed. Balls 
are given at times by private ;, but the rules of pel! 
are so strict, and the people so intermarried, that the death 
any leading member of society often puts a stop to 
gaicty, The ladies pass a great deal of their time in the 
churches, and the men either visit or make up parties of 
rocambur or quadrilli, the game of cards known among our 
ancestors in the last century, in their own houses. At times, 
when the President is in the capital, the regimental band plays 
in the evenings on the “ Plaza,” and on rare occasions the 
ix boarded round, and bull-fights or rather bull-baiting takes 
place. In the last that occurred, two or three Arana Eien

to death amidst the exclamations of the spectators,

surrounding Territories, By Frepertck JEPPe, F.n.08. 


Iwrropuerory. 


Tur new Map of the Transvaal, compiled by the writer on a 
scale of 1: 1,850,000, comprises all the territory between 21° 
and 8U° 8. lat, and 23° and 38° x. long, thus including the 
Patin goldfields and a good portion of the Matabele eountry, 
rues of ane new cole, of Grir alan West (Cancers 

‘ields), a small corner of the Cape Colony, greater parts o| 
the Orange Free State and of Baruto Land, the colony of Natal 
down to Durban, and the whole sea-coast from Durban to 
Del: Bay, including the Territories occupied by the Zulu 
and nga tribes, and a small portion of the Portuguese 
possessions on the East. Const, 

On the margin of the Map are inserted, viz, a plan of the 
one ae Pretoria, sn seat 2 the Lee Goreumen ts 
a of Lourengo jues, tho seaport of lagon pa 
continuation of Mauch’s Route as far ws Zimbabye, with a“ View 
of the Ruins” discovered by him ; a Table of Distances through- 
out the country, mostly taken by trochiameter; and another, 
showing the distances and altitudes of the projected railway- 
line from Delagoa Bay to the Drakensberg. 

The topography of the Map has been carefully compiled from 
the explorations of Mauch, Hoke and Hiibner, Baines, Erskine, 
Capt. Elton, Dr. Cohen, &c., and the route-maps and information 
farnished by Col. Colley and R, T, Hall, combined with my 
own observations during fifteen years’ residence in the country. 

From the routes of the numerous travellers who have explored 
the eastern part of South Africa, the following have been em- 
bodied in the Map:—S' V. Erskine, F.2.6.8. 1868 and 1872; 
E. Mohr and A. Hiibnor, 1869-1870; Captain Elton, 7.2.0.8, 
1870; C. Mauch, 1869-1871; T. Baines, ¥.n.0.8., 1871-1873; 
©, F, Osborne, 1872; Dr. E, Cohen, 1873; Colonel Colley, 1875; 

q £2.08, 1873; some of which appear for the first 
time in a Map of South-castern Africa.

in dispute between the late Republic and the British Govern- 
ment, according to the award of the late Governor Keate of 
Natal, dated 17th of October, 1871. ‘Lhe two lines with which 
the Transvanl comes in contact, according to this award, ave 
given in the Map ; but ss most of the localities mentioned in the 
award cannot be ascertained on any published map, the delinea~ 
tion of the boundaries must be considered only GS reir ben 

The jirst line, forming the eastern boundary of the territ 
awarded to the Bangonketsi, , and Bat 
commences at the Notuani, and rans in a straight 
southward to Ramabulama, a point some distance to the west 
of Zeetust (Marico), and a fow miles north-west of Buurmann’s 
Drift.on the Malopo River; thence due east to Mosiga, an old 
mission-station, about 7 miles south of Zeornst, near the sources 
of the Klein Mavico River; thence the line rans in « south- 
western direction along the waggon-road. Iwading to Lotlakane 
as far as Buurmann’s Drift; again east, along the Malopo River 
to its source ; thence south-east: past the sources of Harts River, 
near Lichtenburg to a point near Taaibosh Spruit; and again 
south-west, to the sources of the Makwasi pont or Pogola, 
and down this epruit to its junction with the Vaal. 

The second line mentioned above, forming the eastern boun- 
dary of the new province of Griqualand West, rung from 
Ramah on the northern bank of the rie River, south-east of 
Hopetown, in a north-eastern direction to David's Graf, near 
the junction of the Modderand Riet Rivers; from David's Graf 
in a northern direction to Platberg on the southern bank of 
Vaal River opposite Hebron; and from Platberg north-west 
ina straight line to a point north of Boetsap, situated on the 
north-western bank of Harts River, &c. Those lines were pro- 
claimed by Sir Henry Barkly, Governor of the Cape Colony, 
on the 27th of October, 1871; but according to the ment 
lately entered into between the Earl of Carnarvon and ident 
Brand, dated London, 13th of July, 1876, the dispute, as far asthe 
claim of the Free State to the Diamond Fields 1s concerned, bins 
been finally settled by the adoption of the following line, via. -— 

“The frontior shall be known and recognised hereafter by 
4 line drawn from Rama (Fountain), Beek, through David's 
Graf (close above the junction of the Riet ti Modder Rivers), 
to the beacon standing on Tarentaal Kop (and marked by 
De Villiers on the map referred to hereafter) ; thence by 
straight line at right angles to the line from David's Graf to 
the summit of Platberg, and from the point where the two lines 
join thence to the summit of Platberg; thence in a straight 
line to the point marked G on the said Map on the River Vaal,

and Sey from timo to time, according to the wish and

territory, containing some 40 farms of 1500 acres each, was 
“ inspected” and beacons detined, the present: Zulu chief Koteb-

eccupation of the farma.

Lobombo Mountains, from where the Maputa River bn

Ingoutu, to certain beacons in 1864, and along the 
south-western side of i's Kloof to Rourke’s Drift, on

the cast coast the svaal, according to the treaty with 
Portugal,t begins on the Lobombo Rangeyat the Maputa river ; 
thence northward along the highest ridge of this range to the

bombo; thence north to Pokiono’s Kop, on the north side af 
Olifants River, to the nearest point of Serm di Chicundo on 
the Limynbu River; and from thie point in a straight line to 
the junetion of the Pafuri (Limvabn) with the Liny 
boundaries of the twelve districts or inces of the

may possibly not be quite correct, owing to the difficulty in 
ascertaining some of the places mentioned in the proclamations 
and maps defining the linea. They are, therefore, subject to 
future correction, 

Before passing on to another subject, I may as well mention 
here @ ciroumstance in connection with the map published by 
the writer and Merensky in 1868, which has lai baa referred 
to in certain South African papers, as an additional proof that 
the territory claimed by the Chief Sekukani did not belong 
to the Transvaal, as the map referred to was supposed to 
exclude it.

height intersect the country from west to north-east. Who 
southern range, called Kashan Mountains or Magalies Berge, 
strotches from the Marico Rivor to Pretoria, and another extends 
from the Marico to Poliones Kop, north of Olifants River, 
consisting of detached ranges, known as the Witfontein Forse, 
Pine Benge, Mavtells or Burycpoort Berge, and Maschioit 
pans Range, Zebedeli’s or Strydpoort y iselii- 
mala Berge, while a continuation of the Kathlamba Mountains 
or Dmkons Berge stretches along the eastern boundary from 
Natal to the Olifants River, also in broken and detached moun- 
tains and ranges called Verzamel Berge, Randberg, Slangapies, 
Komati Berge, Steenkamps Borge, &e. This lerablo 
mountain-range attains an altitude ‘of 5000 to 6000 feet in some 
high peaks near Lydenburg. It forms the termination of the 
high platean or Hooge Veldt, which slopes gradually down to the 
sea in several distinct terraces, from which numerous rivers de- 
scend in beautiful falls and cnseades to the fertile plains below. 
Inthe southern parts of the Transvaal we flod some low ot 
hills in the Mokwasi Berge, Gats Rand, Houdtbosh Rand, and 
Zuikerbosh Rand, near Heidelberg. The Witwaters Rand forms 
the termination of the Hooge Veldt, stretching over the whole 
breadth of the country. In the district of Marico we find the 
Ramazoen and Tsehuanyana Berge and Dwars Mountains, north 
of Rustenburg the, Pilands Berge, and north-west of Lydenburg 
the Lola Mountains, on the north-eastern slope of which Selku- 
kuni's stronghold is situated, while the extreme north is closed

Bay into three distinct plateaux-terraces; the more ao, he says, 
“as with the alterations in the level are eae combined 
differences in the irrigation, timber, fauna, geological 
combination.” 

‘These three plateaux are:— .

valleys between Lydenburg and the steep ridge danerig 
3 miles cast of Spitzkop, in a straight line 26 miles broad, It

by some strange freak of nature.” He gives no reason 
assertion as Dr. Cohen does in a letter addressed to Professor 
Leonhard, published in Germany.” He mentions the discov: 

of a copper-mine at Malmani Spruit; rich iron-slate he foun 
close to the sources of the Matebe, one mile to the west of Moilo ; 
while as one of the “ most productive places in ores" he namos a 
certain farm on the sources of the Notuani. He says further:— 
“ My explorations in the District of Marico have convinced me 
‘that this must be the richest district of the Transvaal, not only 
in metals, but aleo in regard to the fertility of the soil; the 
whole region enjoys » superabundance of springs and sprnits, 
promising a better future to this ee oe the country than all 
‘the anriferons wealth of the other districts.” 

Dr, Holub was prevented from exploring the gold-mine 
which he knew to exist in the Dwaraberg Range, but he saw 
“quartz gold, tho same as is found in Tati,” in the hands of a 
boer living in that locality. The geological formation of the 
Bush Veldt he describes as similar to that found in other parts of 
tho Transvaal: viz, gray limestone, felspatic and quartz rocks, 
and rich iron-slate beds. In a few places the gray limestone 
shows on the surface, and tho rocky parts of the lower hille are 
overlaid with deep red quart, either rich iron-sand or white 
lime-sand. In the northern parts of the Bush Feld, in the bed 
of the Betchuana Spruit, are dark-slate beds rich with mica, 
‘The same gneiss and granite rocks, and also very rich quartz 

ith gold-shining mica, reddish slato, rich in different kinds of 
metals, and red quartz roeks, are to be found on the banks of 
the Groot Marico, north of the Bush Yeldt. ‘The last-mentioned 
rocks are also found along the Limpopo River, covered with red 
juartzic, gravelly, hard sandstone; these again, in many 
Seer are over! with soft sandy stones, The line of 
saltish ground, or salt, containing river-beds and saltpans, is 
nothing more than a continuation of the line between Christiana, 
Bloombof, the Kunynann Hills, and Malopo River, from whenee, 
I believe, it rans Now. to the Kalihari Dont and from there 
na. to the Serornme. The geological formations of such 
which contain rich salt, consist of vory soft, white sand- 
stones, and like that of Klame’s Saltpan, two beds of vertical 
and horizontal white Karoo shells. 

In conclusion, we will mention here, that Dr. Holub claims 
to have diseovered am outlet of the aes River to the 
Shasha, “when its waters become sufficiently high,” but this 
outlet we find already marked on some old maps, as, for instance,

to their probablo value or yicld. ‘Tho country round the:

Tead.—An abundance of galena is found in all parts of the 
‘Transvaal, and some of it is rather argentiferous. "It is found 
mostly in the Districts of Lydenburg, Pretoria, and Marico. 
In the Jatter district, mining operations have been carried on 
for some time. 

Cobalt—Cobalt-glance was discovered by Mauch in 1871, 
on the banks of the Salons River, a small stream flowing into 


havo also been found in Marico, Rusten! and Zoutpansberg 
districts. 


Tron.—All the varieties of this ore—iron-glance clay, iron~ 
stone, iron-ore, magnetic iron, &c.—are found in_ the 
different parts of the Transvaal; but the ores are only used by 
the natives in making wea) and ornaments, Some of the 
iron is equal in quality to the best Swedish. 

Coal.—The existence of immense coal-beds must be con- 
sidered the principal wealth of the Transvaal. The whole of 
the south-costern part, from the Natal boun throngh the 
districts of Utrecht and Wakkerstroom, as far as New Scotland, 
and even highor up, is ono extensive coal-field, branching off 
to the east as far as Hlafunga’s Kmal, near St. Lucia ey 
and to the north-west. as faras Steonkool Spruit (about 57 miles 
8m. from Pretoria), and south-west, across the Buflalo and Klip 
Rivers into Natal and the Orange Free State. The coal on the 
Belela’s Borg, botwoen Wakkerstroom and Utrecht, cropping out: 
on the face of the mountain in a seam of more than 10 feet 
thickness, is of very supdrior quality, and is extensively used for 
the household and smithy; and to the farmers living on the 
elevated plateau at New Scotland, and along the Veldt, 
where wood is scarce, it is almost the only fuel used. Uon- 
cerning the qualities of this coal for steam purposes, we 
subjoin the following Report of Mr, Wilson, Superintendent of 
Gasworks, Capetown, taken from a Colonial papers—

the Boskenhout or Cape Beach (Myrsine), the Zuikerbosh 
(Protes), Kameeldoorn (Acacia Giraifaes), and numerous species 
of arborescent shrubs, Tho farmers inhabiting the southern 
ay) of the Transvaal, particularly those living on the High 

‘eldt, aro in tho habit of moving with their stock to tho 
Bash Veldt during the winter season, where the grass remains 
green, affording splendid pasturage for cattle. 

The wanton usage of setting to the “veldt” at certain 
periods during the winter-months—u practice which either 
totally destroys or greatly retards the growth of bush and 
trees, while it does not improve the pastumge—is ly to 
be deplored: The law ix rather severe against this orying evil, 
but from some reason or other has not been able ta prevent 
these conflagrations, which often cause the loss of life and pro- 
perty besides the destruction of timber. 


The following tabulated list of the principal timber-trees 
found in the different parts of the Transvaal has been compiled 
from information supplied to the writer by Mr. Paul Maré, of 
Marabas Stad, and Mr, E. F. Rathbone, of Chirley Valley, near 
Utrecht, both residents for many yeare in their separate dis- 
tricts; while Mr. A. TF. Schubart, the Curator of the Potchel- 
stroam Musoum, has kindly supplied a list of wood-eamples

the theory advanced by the best chemists on the coast, that 
the nitrate of soda has been formed from a mixture of guano 
with seaweed when this part of the country was at the sca- 
level. As the deposits of Lus Salinas are 4000 to 5000 feet

ago.

After entering, the first reach of the river is very broad and 
shullow, but the channel is fairly indicated ty the colour of the

20 miles, and there is a sensible rise and fall for 10 miles 
farther, the depth averaging 12 feet at low water. The breadth

the Washenzi kept the inhabitants of Windi, Saadani, &c., in 
porpetual alarm, the river protected them from theso nssaults, 
hence the old Swahili word, “Kinga” (a shield), was applied, to 
which the natives here univ ly ascribed the name: but 
whether this part of the river was called after the old town, or 
the town took its name from the river, could not be ascertained

Mafizi is a collection of small hamlets situated on the banks 
of the Kingani and Mto Matfizi, about 30 feet above the river. 
The Mafizi is a mere brook, except during the rains. It rises in 
the Dundanguru hills, a fow miles north of Sagesera, and is one 
of numerous similar watercourses which now, from both sides - 
of the valley, begin to find their way into the Kingani, Sabale, 
the chief of Dundangura, came down to see us; his ue 
daughter carrying his gun across her shoulders, and holding it 
at both ends behind ber neck. He assured’me this was the 
only firearm in the district, which Is very extensive, extending 
from Sagesera, which place has never pec since 
the Maviti dest it and killed the chief, to Muhonyera, 
and for the same distance on the left bank. He stated, | 
ever, that the Wazaramo chiefs had ceased to hold any real 
authority, except over their own villages; ond that only in 
event of war could. they naw give any order to the elders of 
other places within their districts, confirmed what avery- 
one had acknowl respecting the total loss of and 
influence by the Wazaramo as a nation since the Maviti 
invasion, and showed me the sites of numerous villages which 
had been totally sestroreds with their inhabitants, on that 
oceagion on tho loft . His own fre baying received 
warning before these savages reached them, fled, together with 
the people of Mafizi, to the jungle, and returned to rebuild 
their villages when the invaders retired. The people of Mafizi 
haye no occasion to remove during the rain; their huts are 
remarkably clean and well constructed, and the place is very 
healthy. ‘This is tho last of the fine grain districts, and large

Local Government of Newfoundland to initiate a geological 
investigation of the island. At that time, I being the first 
assistant on the Canadian staff, was offered the appointment, and 
pisstentiirne roenmapes inte s pape ees 
with the Government to carry on the inquiry as vigorously aa 
‘ible, and began operations in May of that year. Since that 
time till the present day I have been incessantly ‘nally ongeged 
in this work; have visited, more or less, every part of 
country, from centre to circumference, and have carefully re- 
corded all my experiences from day to day, which finally 
were condensed annually in the form of a of 
addressed to the Governor of the Colony. Although ay ities 
were supposed to be purely geological, and particularly in 
reference to the prospects of the presence or otherwise of 
metallic ores or other economic mineral substances, a very 
large proportion of my time was necessarily occupied in topo- 
graphical surveying, the result of which is the map which

perfect caricature of the reality, where no one single feature 
‘wos drawn in its right place, or in the remotest resembled 
the object it was intended to represent. The plan T 
for carrying on these surveys was on the same principle os 
that usnally practised by the officers of the Government Survey 
of Canada, namely, to scale the principal watercourses by means 
of prismatic compass and Rochon’s micrometer 
keeping up a connected system of triangulation from all the most 
conspicuous heights, and by taking repeated astrortomi 
observations for latitude and magnetic variation. By these 
means the whole of the great features of the island have been

shingle pushing out into the deep water of the bay, indicate 
a considerable yolume in ehesesing: 

Rising over the steep led shoulder of the western hills 
to a height of 00 feet, we passed a considerable quantity of 
good timber, birch, sprace, and fir, This continued for about 
two miles from the coast; and then an undulating country, 
intersected by marshes and ponds, tributaries to the Ht y 
stunted spruce and fir, and rocky summits of granite, Jed us 
some six miles in a westerly direction to Gill's Look-out, 

From this ridge, which rises about 800 feet above the een, 
there is a beautiful view of the valley of the Upper Humber; 
Adie’s Pond in the distance, lying at the foot of Mount Eales 
Range, the serpentine waters of the Humber flowing to the 
south-west on the loft, a square bit of Birchy Pond below, 
with the yellow marsh beyond, and to the right Aldry Pand 
buried in the woods. 

We descended towards Birchy Pond through a considerable 
quantity of burnt wood and about four miles of marsh. eonpae 
is small, and on its southern side has a considerable sprinkling 
of the timber it takes its nume from. Hore we first found the 
red sandstone, an excellent substitute for a grindstone; killed 
some trout, and that excellent bird the bittern, whilst waiting 
for the Gill's flats to carry our provisions up the river. The 
Humber River flows through the western end of the pond, and 
then branches out into numerous channels and shallow 
forming low alder-covered islands, previous to its plunging over 
a twelve-foot fall above a mile below the pond. A iringe of 
fir, birch, and sprace generally clothes the margin of these 
waters; but beyond, the marsh and stunted spruce invariably 
appear. Paddling across the river in Abraham Gill's flats and 
up one of the shallow lagoons, the principal portion of our party 
walked some four miles across a large marsh with a little burnt 
wood and scrub, until we arrived within a short distance of the 
river, where a belt of good timber was mat with. Spruce, fir, birch 
and juniper clothed the south bank, aud.on the opposite shore 
a few pines reared their heads above the variegated foliage. 

‘Tho river was deop and aluggish where we camo out, but 
soon became rapid as it ent its path through the low cliffs of 
red pebbly conglomerate (horizontal), and toreed a channel be-

far the grandest scenery. 

Here our journey ended, H.M.S. Eclipse again taking charge 
of us and conveying us round to St. John’s. 

The secompany ing sketch of our route across the island 
is compiled from data necessarily imperfect and hasty. An 
aneroid barometer, a prismatic compass, a few pole-star lati- 
tudes, and points from Mr. Alexander Murray's Geological 
Survey of Newfoundland, constituted our resources for a survey. 
We are indebted to Mr. Murray for the chart on which the 
work is plotted, and likewise for the description of the red

of Adie’s Pond, forming the base of the coal-measures. Signs
