farther in the same direction, he arrived at an- 
other populous City, called Kurreechane, sup-

southern neighbours. 
Mr. Campbell then returned to Lattakoo and, 
after visiting several Towns situated on the 
banks of the River Krooman, and in the Great 
Desart, he returned to the Cape, after an absence 
of ten months. 
The narrative of such a journey must neces- 
sarily include a great variety of new and curious 
circumstances, which cannot fail to be inte- 
resting to every intelligent reader, and espe- 
cially to those who desire the extension of the 
benefits of Christianity to the whole family of 
man. It will afford no small gratification to 
observe, that, whilst pious Missionaries are 
zealously pursuing their grand object — the con- 
version of the Heathen to Christianity — they are 
materially contributing to the stores of general 
Science, and particularly to the advancement of 
Geographical Knowledge, in those extensive re- 
gions of the earth which, after all the laborious 
efforts of the most enterprising travellers, remain 
to be explored.
