GIFTS TO THE BUSHMEN.

The Woman's Christian Temperance Union had arranged, through the kindness of a friend, to present the members of the Bushmen's Corps with a "marked Testament," but on learning that Mr. J. H. Angas was giving them a knapsack Bible the Testaments were returned, and a parcel of popular literature has been given in stead. To this were added three or four cases of fruit, which were sent direct to the Maplemore. A social was being arranged, but the early departure of the men prevented this being carried out.
