and Gobbi, two provinces of the kingdom of Loango in Africa. The inhabitants are continually at war with each other. The weapons they formerly used in their wars were the short pike, bows and arrows, sword and dagger; but since the Europeans have become acquainted with that coast, they have supplied them with fire-arms. The chief town of Gobbi is about a day's journey from the sea. Their rivers abound with a variety of fish; but are infested with seahorses, which do great mischief both by land and water. The principal commerce with the natives is in logwood, elephants teeth, and tails, the hair of which is highly valued, and used for several curious purposes.
