Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1872 edition. Excerpt: ...Hindustanis would fear to face, not only the fever, but the savage. A gang of 500 negroes from Kihva or Arabs from Hazramaut taught to use moderate-sized mattocks, not the child's plaything now in fashion, well paid and kept at regular work, would soon, by their own exertions and by example, stimulate the copal digging into liveliness or break up the unnatural monopoly. But the Sayyid's government would object to such occupation of its territory; the Wasawahili Diwans would require propitiation; and in view of desertion, it would be necessary to make specific contracts with the chiefs of tribes, villages, and harbours. It is to be feared that such an DEPARTURE FROM SA'ADANI. 281 operation would not pay, commercially speaking, though every hand might produce, as it has been calculated he can, 12 to 15 Ibs. per diem. Willingly, therefore, as I would have won that highest of meeds, the gratitude of my fellow-countrymen by reducing the price of coach-varnish, I had fairly to confess that it was beyond my powers. The sole remedy is Time--perhaps an occasional East African expedition might be adhibited to advantage. As regards the limestone band, of which I had forwarded specimens from the Somali country, no traces were found till after leaving the modern corallines and sandstones of the coast which possibly overlie it. Our march to the Usagara mountains (5000 feet high) was more fortunate: a fossil bulimus was picked up in the Western counterslope of those Eastern Ghauts, about 3200 feet above sea-level, and calcareous nodules of weather-worn 'Kunker' were remarked in more than one place. Captain Speke (Journal, chap, ii.) afterwards saw at Kidunda of Uzaramo on the left of the Kingani valley ' pi-solithic limestone in which marine fossils...

GEOGRAPHICAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL. 'To my surprise, the information concerning Zanzibar and the N. E. coast of Africa scarcely contains meagre phrases destitute of precision.'--(Col. Sykes' Journal, K. G. S., vol. xxiii. 1853.) He forgets that entering from the coast is like jumping from the street into the window.--(E. F. B.) Section 1. Africa, East and West--', Zanzibar' explained--Menouthias--Position and Formation--The East African Current-- Navigation--Aspect of the Island. It is an old remark that Africa, the continent which became an island by the nnion of the twin seas in the year of grace 1869, despite her exuberant wealth and her wonderful powers of reproduction, is badly made--a trunk without limbs, a monotonous mass of painful symmetry, wanting opposition and contrast, like the uniform dark complexion of her sons and of her fauna--a solid body, like her own cocoa-nut, hard to penetrate from without, and soft within; an 'individual of the earth, ' self-isolated by its savagery from the rest of the world. This is especially true of intertropical Africa. The western coast was, until the last four centuries, cut off from intercourse with mankind by the storm-lashed waters of the northern approach; and to the present day the unbroken seaboard, so scanty in good harbours, and the dangerous bars and bores which defend the deadly river mouths, render it the least progressive part of the old world. The more fortunate north-eastern and subtropical shores were enabled by their vast crevasse, the Red and riverless Sea, to communicate with Western Asia, whilst the rich productions, gold and ivory, tortoise-shell and ambergris, the hot sensuous climate--which even now induces the northern sailor to ship in the fatal West African..
