Although I assert, on the concurrent testimony of the best informed and most intelligent natives of Sudan, that there exists a 247water communication between Timbuctoo and Cairo, I do not maintain that the 248Nile of Sudan falls into the 249Nile of Egypt, but that it hath a communication with it, or with some river that connects itself with the Nile of Egypt, which opinion is confirmed by Mr. Hornemann, on African authority.
