Educated Native.
C. J. Phiilips. business a:gent in
ganda of the Church \Iissiouary so
iety. throws light upon the workin::S
f the native mind by <iuoting a re
=rkable letter in which a native
sember of the katilkiro's (prime mintis
er's) party gives a description or the
anda railway.
-My friend. I can tell you the Fn
eans have done :1 t:;arveous thing to
ake the railway and the- tr-ains. They
asten ten or tifteea houses toJgl'i-et

plantain. It goes as fast as a swal
ow flying. and everything you see out
ide tits past you like a spark from a

ridges not one in it would be saved.
or It goes dreadruily quick. The hills
t passes are as high as those of KoMi.
.d they have bridged over great val
eys which are as deep as that you see
when you look from the top of Nami
rebo. so deep that you cannot see the
bottom when you are going over them."
Later there follows a description of
ship: -It is as deep as our two sto
ried house and as wide as the king's
road in Mengo. and it is as lonir as
from the katikiro's fence to the gate
of the klngt inclosure. It has three
tall poles In it and a big throat. out o!
which smoke comes, which is as wide
as the new drum in the churmb at Na
