TELEGRAM 10 THE NEW york HERALD. .

LONDON, July IS, 1872
JAMES GORDON BENNETT ESQ. =
SIR-I beg leave to transmit to you the fol-
lowing important and most highly interesting
special communication, which has been re-
ceived in this city from DIR. Livingstone, by
Stanley's mail from Africa, conveying the
thanks of the explorer to the editor of the
New York HEKALD for the successful organi-
zation of the American Search Expedition,
which has placed the long-lost traveller again
in communication with civilization.
Very respectfully,
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1872-07-26

DIR. LIVINGSTONE hints at the terrible instances
of mans inhumanity that sickened his heart
on his weary journey when deserted by most
of his followers The history of the explorer s
adventures must be full of interest, and the
details will be looked for with anxiety,
although the main features are now known to
the world. y
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1872-07-26

DIR. LIVINGSTONE opens desirable field for
those republicans who, now that slavery is
abolished in the United States, feel impelled to
bestow the government of the South upon the
negroes and to fasten the chain of political
servitude on the necks of the white citizens Of
that section. The slave trade and slavery exist
in all their horrors in Africa, and these re-
publicans, who have so much affection
and respect for negroes cannot employ their
energies and their means to better purpose
than in laboring to secure their abolition. To
be sure they could not obtain political power
and political Offices in return for their philan-
tbropy, but then their consciences would be
light and their reward would be laid up for
them hereafter What will Senator Wilson do
for the poor, enslaved Africans?

THERE Is A SPICE OF HuMoR about Dr.
Livingstone which peeps out in his interesting
letter. He had seen O companion broken
down in spirit and despairing of SUCCESS in
consequence of an accident to a photograph of
his wife, and he could not resist laughing
at the superstition which seriously regarded
such trife. DIR. Livingstone had seen
his followers die around him OF desert him
like towards. He had travelled for months
without a sympathizing word to cheer him.
He had suffered disappointment in the receipt
of supplies and had been forced back from
Tho point at which he hoped to accomplish
the main object of his tedious iourneying.
at last he found himself reduced almost to
poverty by the treachery of q knave and with
the prospect of beggary in that strange land
before him. Yet he refused to despair or
to believe that fate was against him.
The result proved the wisdom of his
philosophy. Relief came, disproving the re-
liability of the sign conveyed by the broken
photograph, and showing the wisdom of con-
.stancy and hope. "Never despair" is Living.
stones motto in the wilds OF Africa, and it is

A DIsaRAcEFUL LAFFAIR.-About four o'clock
yesterday afternoon, considerable noise and
excitement was caus, in the neghborhood of
the Courthouse, by an attempt on The part OF
q negro constable, named Louis Smith, to ar.
rest young white man. Smith is an attache
of Trial Justice Schroder's Office, and held a
warrant against the young man for an assault
and battery which had not been committed.
The young man entered the Courthouse
In partially Intoxicated condition, and
was there set upon by Smith and
dragged over the stone paving in q
most brutal manner. Several humane color
ed men attempted to interfere in behalf of the
white man, and took hold of his feet with a
view of rescuipg him from his disagreeable
position, but the constable held on, and the
unfortunate man was almost pulled in two.
He was finally rescued and locked up in a
room. The colored men present expressed
much indignation at the rough treatment that
had been inflicted upon the victim of the
scene. Smith was afterwards arrested and
carried before Trial Justice John G.. Mackey,
VINO pound him over 10 appear for examina-
don. The assault and battery case against
The white man has been dropped.
