(Special Sooth African Letter.] In a great majority of the narratives of African travel little mention has been made respecting the natural scene ry of regions through which these re spective authors journeyed. Whatever the came of this omission may be, it has ccrtalnly not arisen from the ab sence of ample material worthy of the most eloquent pen. The greater portion of what once was Kafirlaml, but is now commonly known as Kaffraria and the Trans Kelan territories, is distinguished alike for Its fertile valleys and grassy glades and its grand and picturesque moun tain scenery. Within this area the famous Drakensberg chain assumes its most sublime proportions. The wild confusion of fantastic shapes and forms here presented could not bo more ap propriately described than by the Kafir name " QuathlambOi"?heaped up helter skelter?by which the region is known to the natives. During the winter months many of these taller peaks are not unfrequently clad with snow, pre senting a quaint and interesting con trast to the dark-green verdure which flourishes at the base. Numerous water courses have their sources In this wild region and flow on ward to the lower plateau, half way to the Indian ocean, where their volumes are increased and united until several pretentious rivers are formed, such as the Bashee, Umtata and the Umzim vubu. Dotted along on these river valleys on their way to the sea, are SUSANNA. Tho popular remedy for children. It is a positive cure for cholera in fantum aud all summer dinrrlnra. A 1>reventative and cure for scarlet over. A cure for dyspepsia and all stomach disorders.

This is known as the "Gates of 1.3? St" Jolin's River." Inside the 'dates" the river is broad, with scarce ly a perceptible current, and the banks bre covered with forest trees and tan Vied undergrowth of vegetation. I Owing to the abundance of water and the constant supply of frpsh vegeta tion and succulent grass throughout this portion of I'ondoland it Is natural ly a favorite resort for wild game Nearly every variety of wild animals peculiar to southern Africa-with the ex ception of the elephant?Is found here and consequently it is much frequent | jea by the class of hunters and sports men who are not averse to roughing it for luxuries beyond what nature affords are unknown in this wild region.

One afternoon wo spied a native hut in a thicklv wooded copse and entering itfound the entire family, consisting of father, I mother, two grown-up daughter! and son of about 20 years, squatted uro in a big wooden busin Ulled with an I odorous stew of buffalo rauat and green Indian corn. Phillips, ?ho ,poke l^lit dialect, soon placed us on goo. terms with the household by pre senting tho old native a plug of tobac co and a clay pipe. Wo soon learned that a herd of buffaloes had been seen n the vielulty a few honrs before, anil the old man and his son had bairiml one. Wo were further assured wo choso to rest over night tl family would accompany us om lo hunt on the morrow. * efore daylight the next morning we sallied forth In full force, and at sun rise hail reached the spot where the na tives had killed tho buffalo the day be fore.
