against them, and as they unanimously deny that there is nothing wrong with their ministrations the probabilities are that they are experimenting on the wrong kind of heathen and trying to fit an angular savage into a purely circular doctrine, The Australian Black fellow, it seems, is an un- promising subject. "Man," according to Gil best, at best is only a monkey shaved," but the blackfellow was not properly shaved at the beginning of his career; Nature merely tore some of the superfluous hair off him; and then turned him loose in the highway of roology to take his chance. The primeval Mongolian explorer, who visited these shores in his junk, found this patchy individual waiting in an unfinished state on the shore, and probably he did his best to confer upon him the blessings of civilisation, so that the native might ultimately cast the shadow of his huge shock head athwart the pages of history and wiggle insanely in the van of the great army of progress. He expounded to him, it may be, the advantages of that narrow path which would ultimately lead him to spend an eternity with Joss Confucius in a paradise which was an outrage on perspective, and told him of the glories of a Flowery Land above; and the native, to judge by the few remaining signs of that Mongol invasion, disregarded theseteachings, and ate the teacher, and burned the junk, and left a blank among the works of Buddha-the great first cause who, bangs out on top of his lotus flower in the depths of space.

in consequence. That deep desire to go out and do something which, if let alone, would probably do itself when the time arrived in one of the worst features of this era of unrest. The civilised world has already spent 1890 years in the effort to fully understand the mysteries of its own faith, and as the result of these labours it only partially understands that faith in some 300 different ways, yet whenever it chances to light upon a stunted, undersized savage musing on a lonely share it seizes upon bim and demands that he shall comprehend the whole of it right off, and draws up elaborate reports from time to time to show how he is getting on in the attempt. Some. times he grows excited under this unwanted and then a warship comes along and pressure, bombards him in the middle of his perplexities. Sometimes he makes a serious effort to master the difficulties of his new position, but as a rule something goes wrong and he is shot while still engaged among the rudiments of the faith which has descended upon bim in so unlooked for a fashion. And under there depressing circumstances it seems reasonable to suggest that the world should try how the heathen would get on with a little less active, interference-in other words, that, as far as possible, it should sit down and wait to see what will happened AL50 included in the above Sale, a very fine Collection of OIL PAINTINGS, by, known day dissolved by Mutant Consent.

On one of these lands, within a day's journey. from Quillimane, I have seen encamped as lately. as 1884 a large slave caravan a few minutes walk from the owner's residence, waning to dispose of its living merchandise over these Portuguese estates. To mention that in the compound of the house itself was a native of the slave-stick may only be considered a superfluous deal. It is well known that yearly Inge caravans of slaves are brought from the lake district and absorbed into the estates around Quillimane.

Shut out from the gaze of civilization colonized by convicts and criminals of the worst type; overrun by a race, crass-bred between negro claves and the dregs of Portuguese jails; occupied by an Administration powerless, no less from poverty than national apathy, to en- force its jurisdiction save by bribery and acquiescence in a system of slavery and de graded despotism, it is not surprising that this vast region should have become buried in

Then the Christian settler followed in the track of the vanished Mongol, and took stronger measures for the spread of the Truth, He shot a great part of the shadowy native, and hanged good deal of the rest of him, and crippled or otherwise damaged what was left, and the scared remainder of the heathen departed in a shapeles cataract of arms and legs and hair into the dis- tant wilderness, and then the bearer of good tidings started alter him and bade him be of good cheer, for he had got to be saved or burst. The amount of time and money and energy that was spent on this good work ir past computation, and the vigour of the Christian teacher is a bright spot in Australia's history. He got the aborigine down and showed him the matter in various new and unexpected lights. He fixed him with the hostile, expression of his eye and explained to bim about a burning devil who performed unfathomable gyrations with a pitchfork in the trackless jungles of theology. He followed him with a gun and un naturally enough the untutored savage concluded that the gun and the communion of the saints were connected in some way, and noted with interest that the gun had a hole in the end of it and that the hole seemed to go right through to the other end, and thus gradually things got mixed up past all recovery. Then the missionary would the stray members of bis flock up to trees and fences, and reveal to them mysterious facts about people who fell down dead in days gone by, and gradually under this process the native acquired a few stray ideas on different subjects and gained great advantage thereby. He began to accept the fact that somewhere beyond the fixed stars and on the other side of the planetary system there dwelt a being of great size who lasted a long time, and who hit the bad nigger in a way that was awful to think about and he had a shadowy dream of a future state in which he might become an Imperishable blackfellow and throw an ever- lasting spear at a kangaroo which would never pass away. But somehow he never got beyond this point, and, as a rule, he only attained it to die shortly afterwards. The white man's theology was too undermining for him, and besides the missionary gave way at times to a demoralising habit of firing his information into him with powder which promised to end in the entire annihilation of the flock. Everywhere the result has been much the same. Even among the more peaceful and intelligent tribes of the South Sea Islands the triumphs of the faith have merely "produced a stated of things in which rival congregations grasp each other by the hair on minute points of theology, and prospect for each other with texts and axes and boiling water and Confessions of Faith, until all is chaos and general disaster.

down with tyranny, and trade and commerce dwarfed to insignificant proportions. To give an idea of the nature of Portuguese rule where alone they have any effective occupation, that is in the Delta of the Zimbesi, 1 may say that the native soldiers who collect the mussoCo or polltax, are in the habit of forcibly dishonoring the native women and murdering

their husbands or fathers if they resist or even. expostulale. In the early part of 1889 I myself gave medical assistance to a young native man who had been stabbed through the body by one of these Portugu:se soldiers because he had dared to expostulate-he bad not ventured to resist--when his young wife was violated by the soldier. The man lingered for two months in great pain and then died. This case is simply an example of what is happening every day. under Portuguese administration.

In ane sphere, the sphere of morality, Portu- guese civilization has made is mark. During my six years of experience of consular work in Zambesi regions nothing, perhaps, has so forcibly been impressed upon me as ace of the results of Portuguese influence on the native popu lation as the lamentable, deterioration of native morality.

The Portuguese on this coast line have reached a depth of sexual im- morality-indeed, of sexual criminality-below which it is impossible for humanity to fall. Family honor is unknown among these degraded pioneers of a pseudo civilization. Incest and

unnatural vices are commilled without any attempt at secrecy. The Portuguese morality in these dark regions is appreciably lower than that of the brute beasts. With the morality of the native Makololo it can be com- pared in no particular. Among the uncontami aated native peoples the moral code is relatively a high one, and its infringement is punished, by death. Those fearful and horrible crimes against natural instincts practiced by the Portuguese their seitlements on the coast are unknown to the natives of the interior. Under the exemplary tuition of the Portuguese, however, the native population in the neighborhood of and under the influence of the Portuguesa settlements

Apparently the European teacher's theology is a misfit, and the attempt to crowd the unhappy native" into a creed which is too light for him is merely hurrying him on the road to extermina- tion. Moreover, he is required to held too many different kinds of doctrine, and he is apt to burst under the pressure. In England alone, five or six years ago, some 233 rival churches were scrambling for supremacy several new ones have since been added, and every one of them wants to annex the unhappy "native" generally without any fixed idea of where he is to be found or what is the best thing to do with him when he is met with. America, too, has samples of all these churches and some thirty or forly more that are exclusively her own. Some of them exist by having fits during service, and others have conventions instead. One maintained a precarious existence for a time on the ground that Napoleon I was still alive, and broke down at last because it could not decide what was the best use to put him to. Another arose because it thought the earth was flat, and then split into two angry sects because one division believed the earth to THE Custom of taking medicine in the form of be flatter than the other.
