fire blazing arrows at the roof. A few
struck, but no damage resulted. Then
the rifle firing recommended. and it
was while peering through loophole

that they must be heroines while red
devil fingered. There was a second
rush at the house. The revolvers
cracked as before-the whole house
shook as the doors received shock after
| shock. 4ells, whoops and screams, and
report firearms loaded the air for three
minutes, and then deep silence fell upon
the ranch. The Apaches had been re-
pulsed again. Each woman sprang the
empty cartridges from her revolver and
replaced them, and continued her
watch. By and by they looked out, to
see the band at full gallop two or three
miles away.

PONDOLAND.

| Peculiaritles of an African State and Its
| 49, Inhabitants.
I am one of the very few white peo-
Pile that have ever visited Pondoland. |
have lately returned from that country,
and possibly some of my experiences
may be found interesting. Pondoland
| is fertile district northeast of the
Transkei, and lying due south of Natal.
1t is now under the protectorate of Cape
| Colony. The reasons for this new pro-
| tectorate are obvious. In the first
| place, by establishing it. we have COM
| pleted the half circle of British colony
| which now extends in unbroken sue
cession between Capetown and Natal,
thus making us virtual protectors of the
whole seaboard and ports between those
two points. In the second place, we have
kept out other nations-the Germans
and the Dutch, for instance-who have
for some time east longing eye upon
the fertile plains of Pondoland.
The Pondos are a rich nation 80 far
as cattle is concerned, and their country
allows them to grow mealies and corn
and tobacco in profusion without much
trouble and labor. Pondoland is very
mountainous, and at the same time ex-
tremely yell watered. The sea-shore
is covered with brush and forest. The
principal trade of the country enters
from Natal, or by way of Umtata from
King Williams Town through Tembu-
land, which lies Immediately southeast.
The exports of Pondoland are princi-
pally hides, horn and cattle. The trad
ers of the country have been hitherto
outlaws and other adventurous persons
who have chosen TO reside beyond
British jurisdiction. In many cases
they have exercised wise discretion.
The Pondomen lead very lazy lives.
They scarcely ever do any work. They
leave to the women the cultivation of
the mealie gardens and the hewing of
wood and drawing of water. To the
boys they leave the herding of the cattle.
1t is difficult to say what they do but lie,
and thieve, and cheat, and in sufficiently
formidable numbers rendering resist
ance impossible) attack a store, carry
off the goods of the unhappy store
keeper, and murder him if he protests
too vehemently at the loss of his
blankets and rum. They are an ami
able race altogether. Pondoland con-
tains plants of valuable medicinal prop
critics, and the number of poisons in the
country is very large. The Pondo does
not scruple to make use of the latter
whenever occasion requires an objec-
tionable person to be quietly removed"
The grass, or veldt, of the country is,
as a rule, too rich for sheep, but is adj
mirably suited to cattle and horses.
which are very numerous. There are
very few Beers, if any, in the country,
most of the traders being British or

quent, and the power of the paramount
chief is but very partially recognized,
even in his own neighborhood. Justice
is consequently perfectly out of the
question, there being no one to admin
ter it, and no one to execute it.-Cor.

A distinguished arrival may be soon
