(Map: Africa, F 5). Its harbor is rendered inaccessible to large vessels by the sandy bar at its mouth. Its climate is unhealthful. The trade, which exceeds $5,000,000 per annum, is greatly facilitated by the railway line which connects Saint Paul with the interior. Population estimated at 10,000. including about 2000 whites.
