"Every drop from the passing shower to the roaring mountain torrent must fall into Albert Lake, a giant at its birth." How soothing to be positive. _1st June, 1872._--Visited by Jemadar Hamees from Katanga, who gives the following information. UNYANYEMBE, _Tuesday_ .-- Hamees bin Jumaadarsabel, a Beluch, came here from Katanga to-day.
He reports that the three Portuguese traders, Jao, Domasiko, and Domasho, came to Katanga from Matiamvo.
They bought quantities of ivory and returned: they were carried in Mashilahs[21] by slaves.
This Hamees gave them pieces of gold from the rivulet there between the two copper or malachite hills from which copper is dug.
He says that Tipo Tipo is now at Katanga, and has purchased much ivory from Kayomba or Kayombo in Rua.
