PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT

OF MESSRS.

SAMPSON LOW, MARSTON, SEARLE & RIVINGTON'S NEW WORKS, IN THE PRESS OR JUST READY.

AFRICAN EXPLORATION.

MAJOR SERPA PINTO.-The KING'S RIFLE; from

the ATLANTIC to the INDIAN OCEAN; ACROSS UNKNOWN COUNTRIES; DISCOVERY of the GREAT ZAMBESI AFFLUENTS, &c. With 24 full-page Illustrations, and about 100 half-page and smaller ones, with 13 small maps, and 1 large one. 1 vol. demy 8vo.

Major Pinto has opened up an immense tract of new country. The geographical results of his journey have already been recognised as of the highest importance by the principal geographers of Europe; but, beyond these results, the story of his adventures and the descriptions of the various tribes he encountered, written with a vivacious pen, will be found extremely interesting.

**As indicating the Perils of the Journey, it may be mentioned that of the entire force composing the expedition, and numbering over 100 souls, only two or three survived, the rest being destroyed by savages, fover, wild beasts, famine, and other dangers of the way.

The title of the work is derived from the fact that on his departure on his long and perilous journey the King of Portugal presented him with his own rifle-a fine weapon, valued at £500.
