On the 12th the messengers returned with an unsatisfactory answer to Sir Garnet's letter; they brought with them Mr. Kuhne, one of the German missionaries. He said that it was reported in Coomassie that twenty thousand out of the forty thousand Ashantis who had crossed the Prah had died. It is probable that this was exaggerated, but Mr.

Minna and I frequently spent our evenings with this family and others, amongst whom I have pleasant recollections of a certain Herr Kuhne, the head of a private school, and his wife. I contributed so greatly to the success of their little soirees, and was always so willing to improvise dances on the piano for them to dance to, that I soon ran the risk of enjoying an almost burdensome popularity.

We shall discuss the new type of home and family in a later chapter, but in any home where there are children there is need of an intelligent mother's very constant care. Madame GNAUCK KÜHNE, Die Deutsche Frau. If a happy home were the universal destiny of women, our problem would be greatly simplified; but this is far from being the case.

He first sent in Mr Kuhne, a German missionary, who was followed by Mr Ramseyer, another missionary, and his wife and their two children, and Monsieur Bannat, a French merchant, from whom much important information was obtained.

They all looked curiously at him and addressed him in many island tongues, and Rídan smiled and shook his head and said, 'Me Rídan; me Onêata. 'Leave him with me, Kühne, said Burton to the captain of the brig. 'He's the best and biggest man of the lot you've brought this trip.
