NEWS OF DR LIVINGSTONE.

The following communication from Colonel
Staunton, her Majesty's agent and consul-
general in Egypt, to Lord Stanley, dated from
Cairo, November 20, 180 r, was received yes-
terday at the Foreign-office : "Message has
reached this agency from her Majesty's consul at
Zanzibar, dated the 28th September, to the follow-
ing effect :—Reliable information has reached this
of Dr. Livingstone having been seven months ago
at Marunga, on his voyage towards the north-east,
passing to the west of Lake Tanganyika. Mr.
Churchill was about to proceed to the coast to
obtain further information."

CALCVITA AND CHINA MAILIL—ALEXANDRIA,
Nov. 20. —The Ceylon left at 10 a.m. yesterday, and the
Sumatra at 4 p.m. to-day. The former may be expected at
Marseilles on the 25th inst., and the latter at Southampton
►bout the 3rd December.

STEANDFNO OF THE MAIL STEAMER SURAT.
Yesterday the official inquiry instituted by the Board of
Trade into the circumstances attending the stranding of
the Surat, a mail steamer belonging to the Peninsular and
Oriental Steam Packet Company, on a reef of rooks known
as the Shab Khosdan, about two miles from Ras Sheets-
leele, in the Gulf of Sues, was resumed and concluded, at
the Greenwich Police-court, before Mr. Traill, and Cap-
tains Baker and Flight, as nautical assessors. The court
found that the stranding of the vessel was mused by the
default of the master; but considering the high character
he bean, and the very efficient exertions rendered after
the stranding of the ship, the court trusted that the
suspension of Captain Dunn's certificate for six calendar
months would satisfy the requirements of the case.

NENTING.—ThusaDAy.

Mr. Merry's meeting did not flag in any respect, even on its
third day, although the weather was bitterly oold Th. • seed, el
natal, was wonderfully heavy cossidetng the time af the year,
nor were the Gelds by any means disproportionate.
Heathoote, who has lately been travelling the long lanetrilla
i-
lust, at last found the proverbial turning, his filly Columbine
winning the opening event. The Scurry Plat Race fell to
Moabite, who had the advantage of one of the cleverest gentle-
men riders, Mr. Kevin, in the saddle. The fortunate light
weight of the season, young Butler, scored a clever win on
Patrician In the Third Nursery, the finish between him and his
rival Kenyon being one of the finest ever witnessed. Deceiver,
with a ridiculously light weight, could not help cantering away
with the Handicap Sweepstakes, and the match between Indl-
gion and the •• Frenchman," Due de Boargegne, ended In
favour of the lint named, with Just a show of a race. The
feature of the day was the success of Bllnkhoolle in the Midland
Counties Handicap, by which he redeemed his laurels and
partly compensated his spirited owner for the vexatious disap-
pointments he has lately caused him. Details will be fonnd
below.

TALLY-HO eraufm—The objection against Jacob, who came in
first for this moo on Tuesday, was gone into this day (Thursday„
and the stewards confirmed the judges decision. Immediately
afterwards Mr. Dixon, the owner of the second, lodged another
objection, and this time that the horses pedigree wee not given,
and the use therefore is again in abeyance, the owner of Jacob
having gone home. It Is probable the matter will be gone into
to-morrow.

THEMARQUIS Or HASTINGSNFIORSES.—" Argue "
of the Pose writes :—" That the sale of the Marquis of
Hastings's horses will be a tons fide one in nearly every re-
spect, your readers may be satisfied, but from the vain at-
tached to Lady Elizabeth and The Earl, and perhaps on
or two others, precautions will be taken that the interests
of their Derby backers are not jeopardised. I would, how-
ever, warn intending visitors that they mint not expect to
find the yearlings come out with the same sort of coats they
have on at Hampton Court or Middle Park in the summer;
and they will also see the horses that were thrownup in the
Second October and Houghton meetings, when they were dis-
covered to be amiss, rather rough and ready, with the excep-
tion of Lade Elizabeth and Athena, who have been kept in
their stalls all the time. Great curiosity is excited to
know what the former will fetch, and when one thinks
she has proved herself to be within four pounds of Julius,
she may be said to be worth almost a wilderness of
monkeys,' and Non ruins 440111i511 may be said to be the
motto attached to her. The Earl also will keep • good
many heads nodding before he leaves his stall for good, as
be is • very useful second barrel for John Day if his first
should fail him. The other lots have been so repeatedly
before the public that they are ea mach acquainted with
their merits as either the owner or trainer, for the Marquis
of Flutings was one of thou who did not keep racehorses
in • glass-case to look at, like moths or stuffed birds,
although perhaps it would have been a cheaper fancy. The
special, I may as well add, will leave Waterloo at 9 o'clock
on Saturday morning, and will take up passengers
at Surbiton, Farnborough, and Paaingutoke. On arriving
at Stockbridge they will find ' insects' awaiting them,
which will take them to the edge of the course ; but none
I will be allowed on the turf. And if the weather be fine
and mild all the animals will be found parading around the
paddocks just as on a race-day. A luncheon, with dry
champagne (John Day was very particular upon this point)
will be provided for those who are in any way entitled to
it, admission to which will be given by tickets obtainable
of either himself or Mr. Edmund Tattersall. There will
also be a sold collation provided for the million, the
vouchers for which will not be so difficult to procure.
Altogether nothing has been omitted to perfect the ar-
rangements of this great sale, and although the engage-
inenta of many of the yearlings are very large, there is
no doubt the we with which they were originally selected
warranted their being nominated for such nch stakes."

SANTA ANNA.-Santa Anna's good fortune
so we may call it) has not yet forsaken him. He has
arrived at Savannah, having been liberated from the im.
1 prisonmeat to which he was condemned after he failed of
being shot. He is again an exile, as be has often been
before, and has again the opportunity to resume those
plottings for power, in which, though be often fails, he
frequently succeeds! He is not likely to come again to
this country, as he considers he was badly used by our
government when last here, and especially by one of our
naval officers when last he attempted to enter Vera Cruz.
It is hard to say what would be • good place for the no.
happy old conspirator to go to. He could enjoy a very
cosy life in New York if he would be content to give up
plotting and live in peace.—Pew YorkTiwits, Nov. 7.

POLITICAL JEWELLERY. —The Official Journal of
Warsaw publishes the following ordinance from the
Governor of Petrikan, in the kingdom of Poland:—" For
some time past the authorities have remarked among •
certain number of persons a tendency to wear revolutionary
emblems, such as • particular kind, of ring, small crosses
of • peculiar form, Le. I warn the public that all per-
gola, who shall exhibit such objects will incur a severe
punishment, sod will be placed under the anreenlance of
the police. The agents of the police have received orders
to exercise • strict watch, and to arrest immediately any
persons who should violate this order."
Tug PRESS IN CANADA.—In the dominion of
Canada there are about 130 journals published, of which
about 30 are dailies. The number of habitual readers of
newspapers is understood to be about 400,000, or g^•rfy,
my, half•a-million. It would be very difficult to estimate
the influence thus exerted either for good or evil.—
