From the London Times. Nov. u.
A meeting OF this society was held at
Burlington house last evening, Sir Rode
rick Murchison in the chair. There was
an unusual large and fashionable audience
Among the new members enrolled was the
Viceroy Of Egypt.
The President, in opening the session,
alluded to the searching boat expedition
which Her Majesty's government, at the
representation of the council, has sent ont
in order to Obtain authentic tidines of DR..
Livingstone. As / announced 10 Won. he
said, in my anniversary address. the boat
party, under the leadership of Mr.. Young.
and provided by the Admiralty with every
requisite, set sail from Plymouth on the
1lth of June. At the Cape ofGood Hone.
Mr.. Young received great assistan nee from
the authorities, obtaining a whale-boat for
the carriage of his stores, and the addition
of two native Africans to his party. one of
whom could speak the Zulu language, and
would be most useful as an Interpreter when
the expedition arrived at the head of Lake
Nyassa Two letters will be read to Won.
giving details of the progress Of the party
up TO their arrival within the mouth Of the
Zambesi. Meantime, it is satisfactory
to learn that they made a very quick vow
age from the Cape to the Cangoni entrance
of the Zambesi, accomplishing the distance
in nine and half days, and after obtain
iug a negro crew, departed on the 9th of
July upstream on their venturous errand.
have so often explained to yon the cause
of my scepticism on the painful subject of
the reported death of DR.. Livingstone, pro-
duced chiefly by my estimate of the men
dacious character Of the only man who SAYS
he witnessed the catastrophe, and also from
that person having given two accounts OF
1.-THE one entirely contradicting the other
that | am sure you feel with me it was due
to the reputation OF our body that we should
wait until some valid proof of the death oi
my illustrious friend has been obtained.
therefore repeat what L said when the ex-
pedition left our shores, that we must abide
patiently till the second-perhapst the third
month of the coming year, when Mr.
Young's party, having returned from the
| upper end of Lake Nyassa, should have
set our painful suspense at rest. Ii We
should then happily learn that Livingstone
was not killed at the spot mentioned, bat
had passed on into the interior, why then,
| If accompanied by a few black men only
| (which was the case when ne carried oui
successfully all his earliest great discov'
ries), have such faith in his unyieldine
energy and never-failing resources-that
though he may have had no means of com
municsting with the coast, he may, after
an interval Of a year or more, re-appeai
| and rejoice US with an account of his eX
| plorations TO and beyond the Lake Tang
| anyika. (Cheers.)

HORSE THIEVES.
From the Pulaski Citizen. 2eth.

IRON the Pulaski CluZen, 2Sth
The boldness and energy with which
horse thieves ply their avocation in this
section is really alarming to owners o
valuable stock Every few days we hear
of some citizen losing a horse or mule
Mr.. Pink May, residing two miles from
town on the Columbia pike, had good
horse stolen one night last week The
thief, together with the horse, was captured
at Franklin subsequently,, and Mr.. NAY
recovered his property.
On last Thursday night, Mr. Jackson
near Boon's Hill, was relieved of a couple
of mules and horse.
Sunday night last, some unknown profes-
sional Confscated compile of mules be
longing TO Mr.. Tyce, who resides two miles
east of town. Thief or mnles not vet heard
from.
Many believe that there is a regularly
organized gang of these scoundrels in ON
midst, and no farmer retires at night with
any assurance that he will wake up in the
morning the possessor of single horse oil
mule E.. .-

A BOLD RESCUE.

A party of outlaws went to the Giles
county Jail, at l o'clock on Wednesday
morning last at Pulaski, and demanded of
Mr.. Biles, the jailer, the keys of the prison.
The Citizen, says:
They represented themselves as officers
from Lawrence county, having in charge a
prisoner who had previously escaped from
this Jail. The door was then opened, when
several persons in masque, with presented
pistols, laid violent hands upon Mr.. Biles,
and demanded the key to cell No. 2. The
jaiIor protested against any such procee-
dure, bat the mob threatened to shoot him
instantly if he did not comply with their
demand. By this time the ladies' of the
house we're aroused and endeavored to give
the alarm by screaming, and Miss Addie,
sister to the jaiier, made an effort to get out
at the back door in order that she might
arouse some of the neighbors.
She was promptly met at the door
By an armed sentinel on the ontside and
ordered back. Subsequently, pistol was
pointed al her head and she ordered TO
cease her screams or she would be shot In
the meantime the key had been obtained,
and the party proceeded to cell No. 2, con-
tanning s. l.. Richardson, who was under
Indictment for the murder of Mr.. Cannon
several months ago, unlocked the door, and
the prisoner was set at liberty. The whole
party, including Richardson, then hurried
of, and no clue has yet been obtained as to
the whereabouts of the prisoner, or to the
identity of his liberators The whole
party, numbering six or eight, was thor
oughly masqued, and from the familiar
manner in which they addressed the occu-
pants Of the house, we should Judge that
they came from no great distance"

CONSIDER THIS.

To those who are unacquainted with the
facts, the following may appear an exag
geration, nevertheless il is trne, every
word of z Under Democratic admins
tration, for the four years ending 1861, the
United States government cost $272, 1861
026, and under Radical rnle for the three
years from 1861 TO 1864, the cost of gov
ernment was only $2,784, ,976,394. For
seventy>two years previous TO 1861, the
expenses amounted TO total of 81, 33l, :
7e0, 0,7S9. Thus it is seen that three years
Of Radical rule cost the government 1853,
I35, COS more than the seyenty-two years OF
all sorts OF rule, preceding 1861.
