Excerpt from Life and Scenes in Congo Passenger number two was a smart young Scotchman, Mr. J avnes, whose parents were members of the Bap tist Church, Hereford, England. Passenger number three was a colored man, and a native of Gaboon, which is a French possession. He claimed to be a son of the late king of Gaboon, and when asked his name, promptly gave it as Prince Makaga Ndinga. He was a man of Cetewayo's build, Spoke English and French fairly well, and was an interesting com panion. The fourth passenger was a French gentle man, Monsieur de Haut, bound for Libreville, Gaboon. He was a chemist, a lover of natural history, and fond of hunting. Whenever we passed a school of porpoises, he fired excitedly, frequentlv missing, but sometimes wounding the harmless, playful creatures. \vhen, in the Calabar River, he fired at a shark, I was pleased when he tried to hit a crocodile, I was glad; but whv kill or wound the porpoise? \vhenever we passed them, they gave us a free entertainment, dis porting themselves around our steamer, and leaped, or swam, or dived, as though for our especial amuse ment.
