Little _campongs_ of palm-thatched huts stand on piles at the water's edge, and skirt the over-shadowing forest; fairy islands, encircled with red-stemmed _arén_-palms, lie like green garlands on the indigo sea, dotted with the yellow sails of native _proas_, and the little train which conveys us to Padang, the western capital, seems an incongruous feature in a scene suggestive of primeval peace and solitude.
