Show Bt W. C Tlrph DR. LlVINJ(TO'E. New York, 1 7. The London "News" says: We furoieh, in another ano-ther column, a summary of interesting d.spaiches received at the foreign ot- i fi-'o from Dr. Livingstone. These J cover a poriud of time from November i k'i'h, 1S70, down to February Oth, 1 1S7L They give very full and start- ling accounts of the horrors of the i siave trade of central Africa. They j supply minute explanations of the pri-j pri-j vations to which Dr. Livinpstooe was ! suljicted by the dishonesty ot the &genu ("upl'iyod to convny sup-j sup-j p!:e! to h m from Zanzibar, j Of c ;ur-e ttn-y furnish somo accounts I of the proves of his woik of discov- pry, although perhaps these latter aro I hardly so full as might have been cx-; cx-; peeled. Not the least interesting part of tho dispatches are the passacea which tell :' hi ineetiiu with Mr. Stanley. Of cur-e we were already ! in possession of the facta from !'tan-; !'tan-; ley's own '.'e.-.-ri ptin, bu the accounts j iriven by Di Livingstone will be read J wih unabated eagerness. Substantia , ally the description of their oompanij onship given by Dr. Livingstone corresponds cor-responds with that of Stanley. The meeting, aod tho kindness which it manifested, made my whole frame, says Dr. Livnjgstone, thrill with tho excitement of gratitude. Many expressions, ex-pressions, and wo had almost said, many pcntences in theso dispatobos aro identified with tbo phraseology used in parts of letters to Mr. Bennett. Ben-nett. There is also, in the letters to tho foreign ofheo.the same evidence of cheery spirit brightened up into an almost al-most bojish exhilaration by the unexpected unex-pected meeting of one of the explorer's own race under such sirango circumstances circum-stances after so long isolation. If the letters to the ''Herald" oontaioed any outbursts of a somewhat exuberant buoyancy which in the minds of some readers cast a doubt upon their au-ihoniiety, au-ihoniiety, there are abundant evidences eviden-ces of the same eJastio temperament in the dispatches received by the foreign onjoe. |
