FATE OF DR. YOGEL. 
[Dec. 14, 1857. 
pendent of each other. Abdul Carim, who was the chief, sent 
Abdul Wahed to the east, that is to say, to Beghami, and other 
places in that direction ; Abdul Samad went towards the south, that 
is to say, towards Mandara and Adamao ; and Abdul Carim in 
person proceeded towards Houssa and Malla. 
Abdul Carim, on leaving Bornu, proceeded to Zandar, where he 
formed a friendship with a scerif, named Abdul Azig hen Saleh, with 
whom he left all his money and effects, and departed for Timbuctu, 
and attempted to enter Malla, where they were inclined to kill him ; 
hut he was protected by a man of influence, named Seik el Baccai, 
of Timbuctu, who escorted him with a number of persons, and 
enabled him to visit the whole province of Malla, conducted him 
safe out of the same, and caused him to be escorted by a certain 
Sed Ahmed Uadawi, and some other eight persons, back to Bornu ; 
where he found that Abdul Bahman had usurped the kingdom of his 
brother Umar, and had plundered everything, among which were 
the possessions of the scerif Abdul Aziz ; whereupon Abdul Carim 
demanded of Abdul Bahman that he should restore to him the pro- 
perty he had deposited with that scerif, which was accordingly 
restored to him. After waiting at Bornu some time for the return 
of his companions, and not seeing them appear, he departed for 
Bengazi, or Senegal, to return to his own country, after his great 
fatigues and perils, having obtained his object, of taking representa- 
tions of all the most remarkable things, and the most interesting 
views of the interior of Africa. 
Abdul Wahed (Dr. Vogel) departed from Bornu for Bagirmi, 
where he was well received; and, after having well visited all 
localities as he wished, he proceeded to Madagu, and from thence 
passed toBorgu, that is to say, Waday, where he met the vizir of the 
prince of Wadai, named Simalek, who treated him well. He after- 
wards entered the interior of that province to the capital city called 
Wara, where the Prince Sciaraf, so called Sultan of Waday, who 
is now paralytic, resides ; but in the neighbourhood of Wara there 
is a sacred mountain, the ascent of which is prohibited to all persons. 
Abdul Wahed, whether informed of this or not, ascended this sacred 
mountain ; and when the prince learnt it, he ordered him to be put 
to death, and so it was. The intelligence of this reached Darfur 
about seven months ago. When Mohamet Hassan, King of Darfur, 
heard it, he was much displeased, and sent to reprove the Prince of 
Waday, otherwise Borgu. 
In respect to the third, i. e., Abdul Samad, nothing has been 
heard, but neither of these three ever reached Darfur.
