An African Pumpkin.—A most extraordinary story is becoming current of a species of pumpkin, said to have been discovered by Stanley in Equatorial Africa. It is an annual. The leaves, which are eery flabellate, measure from 6in. to Tin. across, and its enormous vines are from 12in. to 18in. in circumference, entwining round the stems and branches of trees to the height of 80ft. to 100 ft., and in some instances to a much greater height; enormous blossoms, measuring from 4ft. to sft. in diameter. The pollen, which fell in quantities to the ground, was in some places several inches deep, and like a bed of fine sawdust. The fruit measures from sft. to 10ft. in circumference, and weighs from scwt. to lOcwt. They mostly rest in and are supported by the forks and branches of the trees, but some were seen handing from the trees. The fruit is eaten by man and several animals.
