Sixty Miles of Locusta.

The African Steamship company's steamer Winnebah, which recently ar rived from West Africa at Liverpool, had most unusal experience when steaming between the latitudes of Cape Verde and St. Louis, Senegal. For 60 miles the vessel steamed through locusts, which were so thickly packed together on the top of the water that they com pletely covered the surface for miles around; indeed, they appeared to be ly- ing on the sea as far as the eye could reach. The locusts had. no doubt, been blown from the Morocco coast into the sea- They resembied gigantic grasshop- pers, and one which was secured was 5 inches in length. Of course all of the locusts had been drowned. w sstnain- stsf Gazette.

The demon, ever the same, raises up the same obstacles in our day as in the first centuries of the church in Europe. This year, at recently estab- lished station, some pagans plotted to- gether to put the best instructed among the Christians to death. Several hun dreds having collected, carrying an idol, they made the circuit of the village, stopping at every house and saying that the idol, the old grandfather, as they called it, was hungry.
 "Our Christian had been warned of the plot to kill him. A few days before he had gone to some neophytes to bid them goodby, saying; This time shall die. Pray for my soul. We shall never meet againp
