GORILLA LAND.
Once upon a time, as tlie printer-books
say, while trading equatUdHt <>» Mar western c oast
of Africa, in tile region, I mn
piy vessel about twenty miles up one of
the there rivers in tln»{.vicinity, and remained
several weeks, having a very profi
table intercourse wiCli some of the inland
tribes of natives. A portion of my
of my leisure time I spent in hunting
through the th'ck woods and daik
gles for which that coast region is f;l
mous, and it was on one of thesa excur
siqjmthsUfir-t ifv wns Hvi, of the -m, can- ...
nibal sfrecieH—l»lack. low-hrowed, thick
skulled, and hut little removed from the
brute animal himself. He could make
liimself understood, however, knew the
country \ well, and stood in such .salutary
luve of tl , wonderful white man, that
1 felt perfectly safe in trusting mvself
with him far beyond tlie reach of friends.
and in places wh re 1 would not
have ventured with auy single one of
my ,. oulltn inei).
one of the deepest recesses of one of the
darkest and most tangled of jungles.
where the spreading branches and
leaves were so ttiick and dense that
scarcely a ray of the vertical son could
find its way down through them to the
damp, malarious earth beneath
suddenly we were both startled by a
succession of the wildest and most dis
corriunt shrieks I had ever beard
though with something human in the
sound—accompanied by a rustling of and
plunging through tlie bushes aliead of
us, as if the creature, whatever it was,
was hurriedly inakirrg its escape.
At the first sound we both stopped—
the black trembling, frightened, and as
white as the nature of his skin would
permit; and cocking my double-barreled
rifle, I stood on the defensive, and at the
same time auxioudy inquired what it
was
My guide replied in broken English
With white traders, that it was a terrible
gorilla, and that unless we turned hack
at once, and made good our retreat, we
should probably never have the pleasure
of seeing our friends again.
I had before heard some rather “ ar *
velou* accounts of ail animal so-called,
and said to bear a close resemblance of
man, and I naturally felt a hunter’s de
sire to see with my own eyes, and, if
|Jossi hie, add the skin of it to my col
lection of curiosities. Therefore 1 was
rather in favor of going forward than
back believing that mv steadiness of
nerve, quickness of sight," and the would relia
hility of mv two loaded barrels, be
sufficient to protect me from actual
harm to say nothing of the assistance
in a strait of my companion, who was
armed with a spear that he could throw
witli the force aud precision of an old
ha roomier.
“Can’t a
mere gorilla, that has been so frightened
atoai . approach as to have fled away
shrieking,” said I, in a cool tone of con
tempt, intended to reassure my guide
and induce him to go forward. "What,

with ids teeth almost chattering, and
Ids eyes glaring upon the thickets all
around him ; “de leopard him sabage ;
de croc’dile him bigger ; but de gorilla—
oo-oo-oof ! him awful!”
“But we have not seen any gorilla
yet,” said I; “and if that animal that
ran away was one ’ we are not likely to,
either.”
“Him woman run—him man stop
qr,bt_hjra *“Well, man.’ debil, woman', master.”
’something or anything
else fore’1 Mocha I must see be

“Master him see, no go hack—him

I had bv this time made up my mind
to go forward through the thicket, even
if I went alone; and ordering Mocha, in
a tone that admitted of no question, to
keep at n y heels, as he valued his life,
I resolut ly advanced a few juices,
though, if '.ruth must be told, not half
so courageous in feeling aa 1 seemed in
action.
But at ihe end of these few paces I

Mission of Santa Gertrude.
A short time after the consecration of
this church, which took place in 1750,
the Apaclies became troublesome, and
the .Spanish Government sent a squad ol
soldiers to the relief of the mi sion, but
the Indians rallied a large number of
their braves and killed off the garrison,
and either imt to Right or iiurvccTcd the
inhabitants. For a year or Cut more the
Indians held this ground, in 1752
abandoned it. and gradually Tubac
became a busy place, and a good deal of
successful mining and ranching was ;
carried on. Fence and tranquility now
