In Mowcco, about the middle of Novcm-

gins in July, Il gummy juice cXudes spon-
taneonsly from the trunk and principal
branches Of the acacia tree. In about
fifteen days it thickens in the furrow, down
which it runs. either in vcrmcular Tor
worm shape, or commonly assuming the
form OF oval and round tears about the size
OF pigeons egg of different colors, as they
belong to the white or red gum tree. About
the middle of December the Moors cncamp
on the borders of the forest. and the har-
vest lasts six weeks. The gum is packed
in very large sacks of leather, and brought
on the backs of bullocks and camels to Ger

that six ounces of gum are sufficient for the
