(eyes of smoke), and the Wasuahili say that at night 
they shine like lamps. 
North of Njemps lies the lake Baringo, which has 
been considered to be intimately connected with the 
sources of the Nile ; suggested by Dr. Krapf in the 
first instance, and afterwards actually tacked on to 
the .north-east corner of the Victoria Nyanza by 
Captain Speke. If the information we have received, 
however, be correct, it is not likely that Baringo will 
be found to have anything to do with the Nile. Ac- 
cording to my authorities, it is not so large as it has 
been represented to be ; indeed, not so large as the 
Naivasha. Of a northern effluent I could get no 
information ; still it is possible that there may be 
a stream flowing out of it in that direction. A 
stream runs into it from the south, called by the 
name of the country, Njemps, but it is not large, and 
does not flow, as Dr. Krapf avers of the Nzaraddi, 
from Kenia. Thinking of the suggestion of Dr. 
Beke, that Dr. Krapf had mistaken the Nzaraddi for 
the Tumbiri, I inquired for the latter, but was in- 
formed positively that there is no Tumbiri in this 
direction, and was pointed to the El guasu Niro, 
which flows from the north side of Kenia, round 
Msarara, into the lake Lorian, as the Tumbiri. In 
passing, this river must not be confounded with the 
Dana, which has its waters from the southern side of 
the mountain ; nor with the Ozi, which does not 
extend very far inland. We were told by some, that 
after entering the Lorian, it flows southwards, and 
joins the Dana, but testimony did not agree on this 
point ; and as there is a large lake east of the Lorian 
in the Gala country, called Wama, it struck us as not
