The steel boat pulled twelve oars, and, completely equipped and launched on the Upper Congo, had cost us about £800. It was lent_with an injunction thaton his re- turn he should draw her up cavefully on tho beach out of harm's way and padlock her chain. The licutenant faithfully promised, went up river, and, on coming back, reported himself and assured me of the security of the boat. The next morning the boat was needed for special service. But she was not on tho beach, and no one knew what had become of het The licutenant was auestioned, and it was discovered that he had given orders for se- curing the boat, but had not waited to seo his orders carried out. The crew, it then transpired, had simply rowed her ashore, and each man had spring out and gone to his ownmess. It was then obvious to all of us that the surge from the Great ¢ which was but two miles below, had enter the cove, lifted the boat clear of the s and receding toward the terrible vortex had bo*ne her away with alt her equipment | aboara. T. ugh it appeared hopeless that we him | should cver hear of the hoat again, four sev- triplets of messengers were dispatched in as many directions across the country to warn the natives down river and offer re- wards for her recovery, and 1 set off with Dualla and another toward _the Great Cata- | ract of Kintamo, over the hill of Leopold- ville. On reaching the summit overlooking the cataract, Stretch, one of the young attend- nts, with his sharp eyes detectod the bout about midstream stranded on a reef the lower part of which seemed to hang ov edge of the roaring cataract. With my g 1 could see her likea tiny speck compared to the mile-wide-river. Above the reef the puissant Congo was treacherously placid, but we, who had so often crossed it two miles above the station within a view of the gulf, had often occasion to dread its terrible velocity, and below the reef it was all a scene of remorseless fury—a countless series of toss- ing waves and spray-crowned crests, and here and there veritable towers which were no sooner formed than they scemed to be swung bodily into the pir, to be followed by others. The eye was fascinated by the wild picture of | tremendous strength and incessant range which the great eataract furnished at this | view of it One could gaze at it for hours for its suggestion of coaseless passion, power, wwiul ingulfingness, while its hoarse roar is in fit volume and accompaniment to the watery horror. I sat down and studied the river above the reef. From our side the boat was quite 700 yards and about 1,000 yards from the opposite bank. The low rock on which it lay was probably fifty yards in width and rose about a foot above the water, and by one of those surges caused by the vieinity of the cataract and shifting currents the boat had doubtless been swayed aside and had rested on what | appeared to be the beginning of a groove or channel, Various plans were vaguely formed for saving it, but were dismissed owing to the imminent danger. A foot rise in the river would also sweep the boat over the reef into certain destruction Planning to Secure the Hoat, We returned to the station, At our beach were a paddle-steamer and a canoe. We set a mark by driving a pog at the water line and resolved to wait and see whether_the | r rose or fell | cuty hours later the river had subsided | SIX 1ne I ont back to the hill of Leo- poldville. The boat was higher out of the water, the reef was larger, and extended e up the river in a low gray tongue of rock. That was one great comfort On the third day th er had subsided several iuches more; reef was still ! larger. Dualla was by my side, and looking at_the river I conceived o plan which 1 audibly rovealed, saying that “if I were ounger and had not so many responsi- Diitis on me T could. save her.
