TJjiji, Africa, Nov. 1G, 1871.
Deae Beothee: I received your
welcome letter in February last, -written
-when the cable news made you pnt
off your suits of monrning. This was
the first intimation I had that the cable
had been successfully laid in the deep
Atlantic. Very few letters have ever
reached mo. from fears in consequence
of my friends speculating as to where I
should come out on tne west coast,
down tho Nile, or elsewhere- Ihc wa
ter shed is a broad upland, between
four and five thousand feet abovo tho
level of tho sea, and some two hundred
miles loner. The springs of tho Nile
that rise thereon are almost innumera
ble. It would take the best part of a
man's lifetime to count them. In one
part 04 miles of latitude gave thirty
two springs from calf to waist deep, or
one spring for every two miles. A
birdseye view of them would bo like
the congelation of frost on window
panes. To ascertain that all these
fountains united with the four great
rivers in the upper part of the Nile
valley was the-work of time and much
travel, ana many a weary loot x troa
ere the light dawned on the ancient
problem. If I had left at tho end of
tho two years tor wtiicn my expenses
were paid, I could have thrown very
little more light on the country than
the Portuguese, who, in their three
slavery visits to tho Cazembi, asked for
ivory and slaves and thought of noth
ing else. 1 asked .about tne waters,
questioned and cross-questioned till I
was really ashamed, and almost afraid
of being set down as afflicted with hy
drocephalus. I went forward, back
'ward and sideways, feeling my way
every step of the way. I was general
ly groping in the dark, for who cared
where the river ran? Of these four
rivers into wnicn tne springs oi tne
Nile converge, the central one is called
Lualaba, and is tho largest. It begins
as the river Chambczi, which flows in
to the great lako Bangwolo. Un leav
ing it its name is changed from Chara
bezi to Luapula, and that enters Lake
Moero. Coming out of it the name is
changed to Lualaba, and it flows into
a third lake, Lamolondo, which receives
one of the four large drains mentioted
above. It then flows on and makes
two enormous bends to the west, and
these made me often fear I was follow
ing the Congo instead of the Nile. It
is from one to three miles broad and
never can be waded at any part or at
any time of the year. Far down tho
valley it receives another of the four
large rivers mentioned above, the lo-
mame or Lockie, whjcb flows through
what I have namedako Livingstone
rLincolnl, and then joins tho central
Lualaba. "We have then only two lines
of drainage in tho lower part of the
great valley, that is Lake Tanganyika
and Albert Lake, which arc but one
lake or river, or say, if yon want to bo
pedantic, a lacruslino river. The Lu
alaba, which I call "Webb's Lualaba, is
then the western line, nearly as depict
ed by Ptolemy in the second century
of our era. After the Lomame enters
the Lualaba a fourth great lake in tho
central line of drainazo is found. But
ing even when 1 was most unwisely
believed to be dead. Nobody but Lord
Brougham and I know what people
will say after wo are gone. Tho work
of trying to follow tho central lines of
drainage down has taken me away trom
the mails or postage.

StJEnENDEE. Of tho man whose abject
fear in times of trial and danger, crisis
after crisis in our history has exposed
to tho jeers of tho whole country, tho
Boston Advertiser thus speaks :
Mr. Greeley has a monstrous faculty
for surrender. For giving up a great
causo at a critically wrong time, his
genius is superhuman. After years of
vigorous controversy against slavery,
the South rebelled. What does our
leader of men at this practical crisis ?
He surrenders forthwith. He immedi
ately docs what ho can to allow tho
rebel States to destroy tho TJniou and
build up their slaveholding common
wealth in peace. He knew well that
such an embodied infamy as slavery
was wrong and hateful, and had just
enough resolution to last him up to the
moment when resolution was tho most
needed. After years of fighting Gen.
Lee penetrated into Pennsylvania, and
what does our proposed Comtnaudcr-in-Chiet
then? Why, ho surrenders
again. Luckily ho was not in command
of tho army in the field. But ho sur-
rondreed his own post, which vas all
that could bo expected of him, by dis
tinctly avowing that if things went on
in this way wo had better make as
good a peace as possible under tho cir
cumstances."
