NOTES OF MY VOYAGE UP THE WHITE NILE.

ON TIE WHITE NILE, Thursday Jan. 20, 1852
Ny vessel is slowly making her way up
the middle of the White Nile. The sun set more
than an hour ago and the evening star approaching
the horizon. There is superb sarlt heaven over
head, and Taurus, Orion, Sirius and the Southern
Cross sparkle in one long, unbroken galaxy of
spendor. The breeze is mild and lighs, and the
waves ripple with pleasant sound against the
prov. My sailors sit on tn forward deck, singing
dolefu songs, to which the baying of dogs and the
yells of hyenas make tit accompaniment. The
distant shores of the river are lighted with the
fires OF the Mohammediyeh Arabs aud we hear
the men shouting to each other occasionally. We
have just passed their principal village, and are
approaching the territories of the Hassanvehs
reached hharoum ut 4 favorable season for
making this voyage. Heretofore il has been very
difficult for any European TO obtain permission to
SAL on the White Nile, owing to the trade of the
river having been completely inonopolizeib y the
