be appointed Receiver of the Fergus

We are informed ON good authority that

Eloby, Gorisco Bay, a little to the
north Of the French Gaboon colony,
that has been exploring the country
during several weeks Of pouring rain.
lie assembled the Mum, the Nova, the
Balinji and the Tambuni to the first
falls. In the Crystal mountains he
fell in with tribes absolutely unknown
up to the present, or who at least had
not been seen by whites, with rare
exceptions-the Etemo, the Manga,
the 0tonto and the Toxic. These peo-
pie are scattered in the middle of the
Fans or Panouins and the 0sszeba,
but speak languages differing from
those Of the two latter. Their idioms
have much resemblance to that of the
Snekiani and the Balinji.
These people, NJ. Kopponfels tells
us, are very %inoffensive; they regard
him as a curious animal and had a
certain fear of him. They tried to
render him service, and were much
less importunate in their mendicity
than the other negroes Of that coast.
When he asked them to accompany
him into the interior, they agreed with
a certain enthusiasm, assuring him
that the peoples he would meet with
were not wicked. They are frightfully
poor and much weaker than the 0ssze-
bas. They are obliged to give up
planting on account Of the ravages Of
elephants and gorillas, which are very
numerous and daring. Not a single
night passed, NJ. K~oppenfels states,
that he did not hear these animals
%ravaging around the villages, which
are, for the most part, very largo. As
soon as the animals are known TO be
near, the whole village is on foot en-.
deayoring to Brighten them away by
shouting.

The leading lady has, in some
respects, the most important position
in the company, and it is a position
which there is now great difficulty in
getting competent actresses to fill. 1t
is no easy matter to find a lady young

belle whose stratagem the comedy sets
forth, and old enough to know how to
play it. 1t is no light task to discover
actress capable of rafting off the

indeed, to find a nature flexible enough
