Having heard of the existence of some sulphur-springs in the vicinity of Tam-suy, I was glad of an opportunity of visiting them; and accompanied by Mr. Lessler, of Tam-suy, who kindly lent me his boat for the purpose, we devoted one of the days of our stay to a journey thither. The locality of the springs is among the hiUs, about equidistant from. Tam-suy and Mbang-ka, and we approached them by taking the left-hand branch of the river, where it divides at Kan-tow. They are highly interesting from a geological point.
