NARRATIVE OF THE EXPEDITIONTOTHE
IVIGER IN 1841. By Captain Allen, R.N., and
Dr. 7 homson. 2 Vols.
In the month of May, 1841, three steam vessels
left England, bound on a distant and perilous expe-
dition—an expedition holy in its object, auspicious in
its commencement, but unfortunate in its conse •
quences. All that science could suggest, or the
precautionary appliances of
ty
of the
devise, were made use of in theconstructionhumaniii
ingenuity
en
vessels destined to this arduous and perilous adven-
ture. The preparations excited general interest and
attention ; even royalty took part in , t,h the
initiatory
proceedings ; and when at length , the Albert,"
" Wilberforce," and the " Soudan ' weighed anchor
and steered their course towards the shores of Africa,
the warm sympathies and anxious hopes of many
thousand hearts went with them. The object of this
expedition was the suppression of the slave trade. All
other means having proved fruitless, it was proposed
to arrest that unholy traffic at its source. The Go-
vernment, accordingly, resolved to send out an expe-
dition which should ascend the river Niger and its
great tributary streams by means of steam-boats,
with the view of entering into commercial relations
with those chiefs and powers on its banks
within whose dominions the internal slave-trade of
Africa was carried on, and the external slave-trade
supplied with its victims. Such was the object of the
" Niger Expedition ;" the fortunes of which expedition
are faithfully narrated in the volumes now before us—
volumes bountifully adorned with pictorial illustra-
tions and crowded with anecdotes and adventures.
Captain Allen has here distinguished himself in a
threefold capacity—as an artist, an author, and a
commander. The drawings are from his pencil, the
narrative is for the most part from his pen, and,
throughout the expedition, he was continually placed
in most arduous and responsible situations, in which
his abilities were fully tested and his perseverance
and fortitude fully proved. The narrative of this
momentous expedition is necessarily most inte-
resting : the only fault we have to find
with it—a fault which some persons will
perhaps consider an additional merit—is a too great
Elaboration of details. The style is natural and
agreeable, and the details of which we speak never
become wearisome. The most interesting portions
are perhaps those which refer to the native tribes
visited by the captains of the vessels in their charac-
ter of her Majesty's Commissioners. Some of the
interviews, or palavers, as they are termed, between
the strangely matched parties to the negotiations are
most amusing. One King Abi, who, nevertheless,
acceded to the terms of the treaty proposed by his
sister Sovereign, grew impatient of the embarrassing
questions and long exordiums of her Majesty's emis-
saries, and at length put an end to the conference by
exclaiming, " The slave palaver is all over now, mid
I do not wish to hear any more of it. Notwith-
standing the impatience of this individual king, the
Commissioners were on the whole favourably received
by the blacks. The expedition was, however, soon
arrested in its progress by the sickness of the crews
of all the vessels. The Soudan was sent down the
river with the sick, and the other ships endeavoured to
continue their course, but in vain ; and while the
indefatigable Captain Allen was endeavouring to make
one more attempt, orders were received from the
English Government putting an end to the unhappy
expedition. No pains have been spared to render these
volumes a complete and authentic history of the
expedition. The appendix contains the instructions
from the Admiralty and all other official documents
relating to the expedition, to which is added an
elaborate " estimate of expenses," together with the
vital statistics of the expedition at its close." Cap-
tain Allen has prefixed to his narrative accounts of
all former expeditions and explorations of that part of
Africa to which his narrative refers, and has added to
it some interesting remarks respecting the negro
inhabitants of Southern Africa. Annexed to these
is a vocabulary, containing numerous wordsin various
African dialects, and also a dictionary of the natural
history of the country. Besides the pictorial illus-
trations to which we have already referred, these
volumes are rendered more valuable by accurate
maps of the Niger and the part of Africa through
which the Niger flows. To the conclusion of
his " Narrative " Captain Allen has appended

" On Saturday last, the bar was sounded by the port
captain, and at half-tide twelve feet of water was found.
This clearly proves our bar is not so dangerous as has
been represented; for, even six days previous to full
moon, this quantity of water was found at half-tide.
What then would be the case on the full and change,
and high tides? We should say, sufficient to bring over
vessels of large burden; and a small outlay of capital,
judiciously employed, is all that is required to prove our
harbour can be entered with the greatest safety."
It is satisfactory to know, from the statement made
by the Colonial Secretary at the meeting of Council
on Tuesday, that the construction of the sea wall in
Table Bay, and the prosecution of other important
improvements in the ports of the colony, are only
delayed by the need of a competent director and
superintendent. This want, there is every reason to
believe, will soon be supplied. We may, therefore,
hope, before the close of the year, to see several of
the useful works to which we have referred in pro-
gress.

DEATH OF Sul HUGH EVELYN, BART.—This vene-

from the fact of his being the lineal descendant of John
Evelyn, the distinguished author of " Silva," and also
of George Evelyn, who first introduced gunpowder into
England, died on the 11th instant at his residence on
Sydenham, at the advanced age of 80. The
decased married a Miss Hathaway, of Southwark, but
nut having any issue, the tide becomes extinct.
DEATH OF MAJOR PHILTOTTS.—Major Philpotts,
who, since his recent arrival from India, had been resid-
ing with the Rev. Mr. Anderson, of Keswick, diedsud-
denly at the Queen's Head Hotel, Newcastle, on Ihurs-
day evening last. He had travelled to that town by the
Newcastle and Carlisle Railway, and on arriving at the
hotel was conducted to an upstairs apartment, where in
half en hour afterwards he was discovered by one of the
rvants lying lifeless on the floor. The advice of Mr.
Newton, Sir John Fife, and Mr. Glenton, was obtained,
and those gentlemen pronounced that life had been some
time extinct, owing to the bursting of a blood vessel,
-accelerated, in all probability, by some other disease
under which the Major was labouring. An inquest was
held on the following day, and a verdict returned of—
" Died by the visitation of God.

Before the Court rose, Mr. Ivie Mackie, wine-merchant'

Barker, and, being accepted, Mr. Barker was liberated
from custody.
FIRE AT SEA.—The steamer Motala, belonging to
the Swedish Government, caught fire off Tjarhofvad, on
its way from Stockholm, on the 27th ult., and in a short
time the greater part of the deck was in flames. The
commandant succeeded in running the vessel on a sand-
bank, and assistance was rendered from the land. All
the passengers and crew were saved, but notwithstanding
all the efforts employed the fire could not be got under
for an hour-a Ed-a-half, by which time the upper part
of the vessel and the greater portion of the cargo were
destroyed. Some few articles, however, were thrown
into the sea, and among them two pianos of Erard of
Paris. The steam-engine of 80-horse power only sus-
tamped slight injuries, and was removed to Blockunstallen.

A GOOD CusTomEa.—A short time ago a maiden
lady was in the habit of sending to a certain post-office,
not in this county, to purchase a shilling's worth of
Queen's heads, which of course she duly received. At
last she wrote a polite note to the postmaster, requesting
him to give her thirteen to the dozen, which he ought
to do, as she never dealt at any other shop, or put her
letters into any other post-office.—liereford Times.
