Death of Mr. Rae of the Zambesi Expe
dition•

We regret to announce to-day the death of Mr.
Rae, C.E., one of the members of Dr. Livingstone's
exploring party in Africa, who expired under very
melancholy circumstances in Glasgow on 'Wednes-
day. The deceased gentleman, who had been for
some time at Zanzibar, arrived in this country on
Monday week, and arrangements had been made that
during his present visit he should be married to a
daughter of the late Mr. Walter Dalgleish, Holyles,
Selkirkshire. Up till Tuesday, which had been fixed
for the marriage, the deceased was in apparently
perfectly good health, but about noon of that day he
complained of pain in the stomach. The symptoms,
however, were not such as to cause any alarm, and
the marriage ceremony took place at 3 o'clock. Mr.
Rae, shortly after the marriage, seemed to be getting
worse, and was put to bed. His illness was accom-
panied with insensibility in the evening ; in the
morning consciousness returned, but unfortunately
there was no recovery from his illness, as he died
about noon on Wednesday. Mr. Rae worked in
early youth with a millwright in Perth. He subse-
quently completed his apprenticeship as an engineer
with Mr. Caird, the eminent shipbuilder on the
Clyde. He afterwards entered the employment of
Messrs. Todd and Macgregor, Glasgow. He was
engaged in the French service in one of the trans-
ports employed during the Russian war, and he was
at one time, we believe, wrecked off Cadiz. In 1858
he joined the expedition to the Zambesi, under the
command of Dr. Livingstone. In 1860 he returned
to this country to superintend the construction of
the Lady Nyassa, which it may be remembered was
built in sections, and was intended to be put on the
Lake of Nyassa. He gave an interesting account
of a shipwreck which occurred on his passage home.
He sailed from Zanzibar on the 30th of August,
1860, in the Guide, sailing from Salem. The
ship's company consisted of 20 Americans; and
three Spanish ladies and himself were passengers on
board. On the 4th of September, about midnight,
the vessel struck, and went ashore at Rass Haffoon,
near the Gulf of Aden. On the following morning
they were able to reach the shore, but they were
plundered of nearly everything they possessed by
the natives. For several days they went about in
search of water. Five of the crew who left their
companions for that purpose never returned, and
were afterwards found to have been murdered.
Their sufferings at this time were indescribable,
their tongues perfectly parched, and their voices so
much altered that they could scarcely understand
what each other said. They ultimately resolved to
kill the captain's dog, which accompanied them from
the ship, and Mr. Rae states that he put a small
piece of the flesh over his lips to keep them moist,
they being severely cracked and very painful. The
party on the fifth day returned to the ship. They
were visited by the chief's " head man" from the
interior, who on learning that there was an Eng-
lishman in the party, said ho had his orders from
his Sultan, if there was any English, to protect
them until the arrival of the chief. The chief ar-
rived in five or six days, and through his kindness
Mr. Rae was despatched with the ladies in an open
boat to Makullah. Here, by the liberality of the
Sultan, he was provided with another boat, which
reached Aden on the 25th October, 1860, and from
thence he secured passages enabling him to arrive
at Southampton the 17th November following. Mr.
Rae was a gentleman of amiable and kindly dispo-
sition, and was much beloVed and respected by all
who knew him. He died at the early age of 32.

SOMETHING LIKE A SHOT. Mr. Adam Leding-
ham, gamekeeper to Mr. Simeon Keir, while out shooting
upon the Lesmurdie moors, this county, upon Thursday
last, discharged his doubleblanrrelled gun at a large covey of
grouse that were flying past him, and brought down five out
of their number. Mr. Ledingh am, after loading his fowling -
piece,
flying g
piece, saw anothey large pack 94 rouse in the same
direction ; and while they were in the act of passing him
he discharged both barrels among them andbrought down
12 out of their number, thus killing in all at the two dis-
charges 17 fine, plump, strong grouse, making a hit in
grouse-shooting that probably has no parallel in the annals
of sport, more especially at this season of the year, when
the grouse have such a coating of feathers upon their bodies
as greatly dofends them from the shot.—Banfshire Journal.
