The envoy who brought it and his suite of fitteen men were halted at Assa- man. Yesterday, also, the apparition of a pale face captive—a shadow of a man suffers ing from pulmonary consumption, one who had lingered in compulsory detention at the capital of Ashantee since the [2th of June, 1869—startled the camp. The sick captive is the Rev. Mr. Kuhne, of the Basle mission, | @ zealous missionary, a native of Neuchatel, who, after five years’ residence at Coomasie, was suddenly permitted to leave Ashantee end proceed tothe camp of Sir Garnet Wol- | sely. The poor man isin such a wretched state of bad health that I could not find itin my heart to subject him toa prolonged interview, but in the following remarks vou will find interwoven such information of interest as I have been able to glean :— The King of Ashantee i or 36 years old, strongly pitted with traces of smal! pox. possessing some natural ability, but which has been warpet by the assidu- ous and constant flattery of his parasitical and trembling subjects. The adulatory cries of the town crier of the capita! are more than sufficient to transform any man, white or black, into a vain, incarnate despot. They are generally in the strain of “ O King, thou received nasie a@ young man, 35 art the king above all kings. Thou art great! | treated them at first wilh coniumely, but | who had got inio bed, espied the foot of one Thou art mighty! Thou art strong! Thou hast done enough!

So little , is wet oe | ne : aan cates , ne | limited p | | wash the King's robes! I wash the King’s | low when the stranger drew in his foot, he | have ever appeared without misprints. Eph: | does he value human life that he frequently says, * By the slaughter of a hundred shall I be able to produce a thousand.” The King | is placed on the stool by the united voice of | the chiefs, but immediately he becomes seats ed, in him becomes vested the supreme pow- er over Jife and death. If the council of gage in war, he dare not absolutely refuse | to make war, l+st some ask him, with a sneer, | if he is afraid, when, if he answers in the af- frmative, the monarch’s prestige departs from him. When the chiefs propose that he | shall make peace, after engaging in a war | which turns out to be ruinous, he may then ' “proclaim that peace shall be declared, with- | out incutrang disrespect. A great power in Ashantee is th ‘a mother, who often, | with her advice, has ce into war or hastened peace. tec The King’s palace is a large hut weet the | native style of architecture, and adjoining~' is another residence, two-storied stone house, constructed for him by Dupins, a traveiler | who visited Ashantee about 1820. The miss | sionaries have lately constructed another bouse for him 44 feet long. 2 two stories high, of brick, which they them. | selves manufactured for the King ~~ j feet wide, and | scatterred about the suburban crooms, or | villages. It is death for a man to look atthe female possessions of the monarch. When | any of the harem ventures out the criers has- ten shead to clear the way and warn the citizens of the advance of the fatal procession, | with cries of ‘“ Ecow! ecow! eh! eh! eh!” the first two words being drown out like our | «*balloo,” while the threes last are delivered to quick succession and in higher tones. As they approach the passengers turn théir | backs to the road and cover their faces with | their hands, so they may not be thought to! ~ Take any advantage of the confidence of the | \uman treasures i King in thus exposing his to the lizht of day. Bowdich’s graphic descriptions of the stately processions an the wealth of bar- baric gold dispensed at Coomasie on grand eccasions turns oul to correct. The wealth principally consists of golden heir- looms, ornaments of massy gold, which gen- | eration afier generation treasured in secret places.

The reception was sin gularly silent, utter/y unlike the indescribs | able triumphal fanfaronade formerly made on | such occasions ‘hen the people dispersed to tLeir crooms, their plantations and houses. Fifty-five slaves were slaughtered to the | manes of the departed chiefs on the custom day, the Ist of January cf this year. Amonquatiah and the chiefs who have been engaged in battle have sought to dis- | pei depression from the mind of the King by boasting of his performances in the war, and declaring to him that there are enough men still left to defend the capital from any It appears that the British letter gated conlempt in the mind of the King The first feeling was caused by the stern | purpose which his words implied; alarm, by | thee from thou kmowest not what again ’ the amount of compensation to be exacted for the injury done to the Assins and Fans ees, and unmitigated contempt at the long | ‘explanation at which the general had seen | certain, | ilities where | ee a eT THE ECONOMY OF HUMAN LIFE.

But Amonquatiah, whe had ‘He n no war cannot show a scar.’ who has see Presently cooler councils and more prudent | advice prevailed; hence the letter which Sir Garnet Wolsley received the day before lay ts peace. The King’s first intention after his general’s return to | Coomassie was to permit his warriors a | k’srest and occupy the Adansi hills, and when the white people should attack them with vigor. If he were success» in driving the English back he slaughter every prisoner, white or black, he had taken in this war; if he were defeated he intended to await at Coomassie the arrival of to plead yester eating of appear, to | ful would his foe, reserving his prisoner for peace for him. The reputation of the Gatling is now spread throughout Ashantee. ‘ It is a ter~} rible gun, which shoots all day. Nothing | could stand before it; the water of the Prah ran back affrighted." The effect of this, com- bined with many other things, has been to | induce the king and bis council to deliberate and reflect on the possibility of peace, Of himself, Mr. Kuhne said he had been | captured on the 12th of June, 1869, by the General Adde Buffo, that a valuation of £6,-} 000 sterling was placed by his captor on Mr. Kuhne, Mr. Ramseyer and wife and Mr. | Bonat, a French trader, which was finally | reduced to 21,000. He and his brothers were treated as captives who might probably be of value eventually or not. They were granted a sufficient amount for subsistence, What money was des- patched to them was retained by the Ring, who doled out to them the sum of $4.50 per period of forty days for the subsistence of white man and his servants. They have preachea a few times on the streets to the Ashantees of the capital, but the King never gave permission to his subjects to be some eonverts. The populace of Ashantee but nothing more. each when the King gave them _ permiesion to punish insolence with the whip more consideration was shown to them, some It from being subject to the privilege granted to the captives by crying out, *‘ Know ye what ye do?
