ded, in the present case, the fear Of the autho-

their loss, and especially that it may interfere

DISCOVERIES IN AFRICA.


His Maiesty's ship Brazen, Capt. WiIles,
sailed on Thursday last, for the Bights of Ben
in and Biafra. Captains Clapperton * Pearce
with Messrs. Morrison and Dickson, who
came out in the Brazen, went down IN her, and
will be landed at such par, of the coast as cir
cumstances may render most advisable. Their
object will then be TO reach Soccatoo, where
Captain Clapperton resided some time last
year, when in the interior with Major Denham
We had much conversation with him, and
were much grati6ed with his statements. They
confirm (what we are sure will be more appa-
rent the more we become acquainted with the
country that the centre Of Africa is far advan-
ceG in civilization, that the farther the negro is
removed from the baneful effects of the slave
trade-the contamination oil the coast-the
more he is raised in the scale Of humanity, the
more intelligent, honest, and industrious does
he become. We understand that on reaching
Soccatoo, some ofthe party will remain to form
more intimate relations with that extraordina-
ry sovereign, Sultan Bello, and endeavour TO
establish safe and permanent communication
between Soccatoo and the coast; whilst others
will visit the Niger, trace its source, and FOL
low Ii to the sea; with other excursions Tor the
benefit Of science s the extension acknowledge.
We were favored with view Of map, con-
tanning the late discoveries of Major Denham
and Capt. Clapper,on, from which it seems
nearly certain that the Niger, or Joliba,
passing within a short distance. Of Soccatoo,
flows into the Blight of Benin, and, we have
no doubt, forms Lagos aud The rivers round 1t
If SO, what an important opening is made into
the interior of Africa! With the exception OF

also struck with the circumstance, thai all the
gold carried to Timbuctoo and Soocatoo is
brought from the west and south west,--a strong
confederation of what is always stated by our
travelling merchants, that the most productive
gold mines of Western or Interior Africa are
not far from u.s. We wish these adventurous
travellers every success, but we cannot help
fearing the Portuguese interest in the Blghis

REMARKABLE ERUPTION.

In Calais, town adjoining Montpelier, VI.
an eruption took place about ten days ago, by
which large quantity of earth was thrown from
the side of hill, and near its base, leaving ca
witty which measures u feet in depth, on the
upper side; six rods in length, and 40 feet wide.
Large trees were growing upon the spot, which
were removed with such force, as to cause them
to fall with their tops up the hill, although
while standing, they leaned down the hill near
ly 80 degrees from perpendicular point. The
ground was frozen nearly two feet deep, and was
broken in a perpendicular manner. Large
stones, weighing from 5 to 400 pounds, were
thrown 80 rods, and one, which our informant
thinks will weigh between FIVE and ten hundred,
was thrown about eight rods. The force must
have been great, as the explosion was heard at
a considerable distance. The assures in the
rocks. at the bottom, and on the sides of the ca
witty, are barely large enough to admit mans
hand. The cause of this explosion is unknown.
Some suppose it to have been effected by wa
ter-but this is not very probable, although
there was undoubtedly, considerable quantity
Of water. Yet the explosion being instantane-
Gus, there must have been some invisible cause
Of the eruption 1t furnishes a subject for the
investigation Of the philosopher, and cannot
fail to excite the attention of the curious.
