and | saw unmistakabe evidence of iha
i overflow reaching about fifteen miles out.
| YET the soil Of this extraordinary regior
seemed 10 be fruitful. The inhabitants raisec
large crops Of native corn, sugar canes
sweet potatoes, "earlh nuts," and other es
cuients. In paris not under cultivation, the
country was covered with rank, coarse grass
but many large and beautiful wees adorned
the landscape, among which The enormous
baobab, or adansonia. reared its huge trunk
and gigantic arms, making the others appear
by contrast, like bushes below il. The ma
,ives were numerous, and seemed 10 be in
no want Of food The Makoiolo, who are
the dominant people, are recent intruders in
this par, Of the county. They formed orig.
inally one of those hordes of Mamatees,
which abou, thirty years ago, devastated the
country along the northern frontier of the
Cape colony. Driven back by the Gfiquas
in 1884, they re,rea,ed towards the north,
and, after many wanderings, found their way
TO the banks Of the Sesheke. where they at
last established themselves, subduing, but
moi exlerminaling, the former possessors.
These conquerors speak the Sichuana tongue
the same that is spoken by the tribes in
the neighborhood Of the Cape colony, among
whom Dr. Livingston and other English mis-
sionaries have been for many years resident.
"The providence Of God," exclaims the
Jealous doctor, "has prepared the way for
US; for wherever we went, we found the ST.
chuana-into which the Bible is nearly all
.ranslated--in common use." II is ",he
court language" Of The inferior.
The indigenous tribes are race of darker
complexion than the Makalolo, and speak
dialects which, though radically Of the same
stock with the Sichnana, differ yet so widely
from ii as not to be ineligible 10 those who
speak only the latter tongue. These black
aborigines seem to be in many respects su'
perior to the conquering race. "The Bar

abounds in this country, and of excellent
quality-they extract it from the ore; and
they are famed as canoe builders. Abund-
ance Of fine, light, bu, strong wood, called
molompi, enables them TO excel in this branch
of industry. Other tribes are famed for
their skill in pouery. Their country yields
abundance Of native corn, &C.; and though
their upper exlremities and chests are largely
developed, they seem never 10 have been
