We got a cake of these same insects further down; they make a buzz like a swarm of bees, and are probably the perfect state of some Lake insect.
I observed two beaches of the Lake: one about fifteen feet above the present high-water mark, and the other about forty above that; but between the two the process of disintegration, which results from the sudden cold and heat in these regions, has gone on so much that seldom is a well-rounded smoothed one seen; the lower beach is very well marked.
The strike of large masses of foliated gneiss is parallel with the major axis of the Lake, and all are tilted on edge.

Some are a little inclined to the Lake, as if dipping to it westwards, but others are as much inclined the opposite way, or twisted.
I made very good blue ink from the juice of a berry, the fruit of a creeper, which is the colour of port wine when expressed.

A little ferri carb.ammon., added to this is all that is required.
The poodle dog Chitane is rapidly changing the colour of its hair.

All the parts corresponding to the ribs and neck are rapidly becoming red; the majority of country dogs are of this colour.
The Manganja, or Wa-nyassa, are an aboriginal race; they have great masses of hair, and but little, if any, of the prognathous in the profile.

Their bodies and limbs are very well made, and the countenance of the men is often very pleasant.
