A travel without an armed escort. As 1t 10 ex-
seedingly dangerous for single boat to pass
through the extensive negro kingdoms OF the Shii-
looks and the Dnkas, had hoped to accompany
DIR. Knoblecher's expedition some distance up the
river and then take my chance of returning. Inc
hat belonging to the Catholic Mission, however,
has mot vet arrived from Cairo, and the season -
nav 80 far advanced that he will not be able to
leave before next November. At present, how
ever, Lattf Ehend is fitting up two large vessels
WHICH will leave in two weeks on q trading voyage
which he intends pushing as far as the Bari coun-
tsy. I could no doubt accompany him if desired,
but as he will not return before some time IN June,
should be Obliged in that case, to pass the sickly
season in Soudan--a risk scarcely worth the profit,
n, with the best possible good-luck, might barely
reach the point attained by DIR. knoblecher. The
Consul proposed my going with Lattif Ehendi
until should meet the yearly expedition on its re
turn, and then come down the river with 1t. This
would enable me to penetrate to lat.9 perhaps
g., but after passing the islands of the Shillooks,
one sees little except water, grass and musketoes,
until he reaches the land of the kyks, in lat u.
After weighing carefully ali the arguments on both
sides, decided to take small boat and ascend as
Ear us the islands. Here the new and rich animal
and vegetable world Of the magnificent river be-
gins to unfold, and in many respects it is the nm
pressyc portion Of his stream.
To-day have been fortunate in finding small
and feet sandal, with captain who knows the
river. He will take me no further than the island
Of Aba, somewhere between lat. 12o and l3o, on
account of the danger Of ycnturing among the
Shllooks without an armed force. The few pre-
partitions need are already made, and tomorrow
shall set sail for my Southern Thule. BIT.
