Kaffirs Are Promising.

The Kaffirs seem to be the most promising of the South African races. They held some agricultural shows lately at which they rivaled the white farmers ,and one tribe offered to find 15.000 to build a needed bridge if the government would furnish as much more. Furthermore, they are setting up a church of their own, to be called the Ethiopian church, with the intention of separating from the churcLas that have ministered to them.
