mixed with condiments, uud a portion
of this is offered, with a dim sort of
sacramental meaning, to travelers who
become guests of the fumily. To refuse
it would bo a deadly insult. To accept
it is a passport to the privileged position
of a friend of the house. Many of our
travelers in east Africa have eaten thus
sacramentally of tlie ancestors of some
dark skinned potentate.
The cannibalism of tlie west coast is
of a more horrible kind, connected with
fetichism, the worst developments of
which are peculiar to that country. Bnt
there is a hideously genuine appet ite for
fresh human flesh still existing among
the negroes of west Africa. This canni
balism manifests itself in a refinement
of gluttony which lias its mild analogy
in the tastes of Europeans. Young boys
are bought from the dark interior, kept
in pens, fattened upon bananas and fili
ally killed anil baked. To these Thyes-
teau feasts come not only the savage
chiefs of the interior, but also, it is
whispered, black merchants from tho
coast. Men who appear at their places
of business in English territory in broud-
cloth and tall huts, who ape the man
ners of tlieir white masters, are said to
disappear annually into the iuterior,
where, wo are told, they blight be seen
in naked savagery taking part in tbe
banquets on plump boys, in which they
delight.
Be this as it may, somehow the native
of the west coast and its Hinterland is
unlike tho East or South African native
in the deep lying savagery and the ex
traordinary facility for returning to it
which are his leading and very unpleas
ant characteristics. The subject claims
the attention of tho anthropologist, and
certainly suggests a curious reason for
questioning the relationship of the black
man and the apo cr the gorilla, seeing
that the race of monkeys seems to be
singularly free from anything like can
nibalism.—Loudon Saturday Review.
