N.B.-Cotton is obtainable in any quantity, and is now grown extensively throughout the Yoruba country, especially to the east and north. Great quantities of cotton cloths, of a strong texture, are annually made, finding their way to the Brazils, and into the far interior. To obtain a largely increased supply of cotton, it is only necessary to open roads, and bring money to the market. Upwards of 2,000 bales have been exported this year, and the quantity would have been doubled or trebled if the country had been at peace. The present price is 44d. per lb. The other fibres are not at present made for exportation, though doubtless, some of them-jute, for instance-would be, if in demand. Of the native manufactures, the grass cloths, made from palm fibre, and the cotton cloths, are most prominent. Very nice leather work is done. The art of dyeing Morocco leather different colours has been introduced from the interior. Indigo is almost the only dye which can be obtained in considerable quantities. The natives manufacture all their own iron implements, and the quality of the metal is considered good. 2. MCWILLIAM, THE LATE DR. C. B.1. Cloth, from the confluence of the Niger and Tchadda. 2.
