Livingstone the African Explorer.
His Adventures as Narrated by the
New York Mern1d.S COrresi,nnfient

New YORK, July 2.--The Herald has long
account from Stanley. narrating bis adyen-
lures in reaching Ujiji, where he came up
with Livingstone the explorer, whose story is
rs follows: In March, 1866, he informed the He
raids correspondents, be started with twelve
Sepoys-nine Johsnnamen and seven liberia
ted slaves. He travelled up the Rovuma
river, but before they had been gone very
long the men became frightened at the nature
of the journey and the reports of hostile
tribes up the country they were to pass
through. Atlength they deserted him, and
as cover TO their cowardicc in doing so they
circulated the report of his death.
Livingstone proceeded on his Journey in
spite of the isolation, and after some difficult
marching reached the Chambezi river, which
he reerossed. He found that this was not
the Portuguese Seambezi river, as had been
conjectured, but, on the contrary, wholly
separate. He traced its course, and found it
called further on the LlalaLa. He con-
tinued his explorations along its banks for
seven hundred miles, and he has become
convinced in consequence that the Chambezi
is doubtless the source of the Nile, and that
this will make total length for the mystic
river of Africa of two thousand six hundred
miles. His explorations also establish that
the Nile is not supplied by Lake Tanganylka.
Livingstone reached within $50 miles of
the source and explored the surrounding
ground, when, finding himself without sup
plies, he vas obliged to return to Ujiji, and
was in a state of destitution there when met
by the commander of the Herald expedi-
ton. On the 18th of October, 1871, the two
explorers left Ujiji, and arrived at Unyan-
yembe toward the end OF November, where
they passed twenty.eight days together ex-
poring the district. They then returned
and spent Christmas mt Uiiji.
The Herald explorer arrived mt the point
of sending this important intelligence on the
l4tll of March, 1872, leaving Livingstone ut
Unyanyembe.
Liyingstone's future plans are to explore
the north shore of ranganyika lake and the
remaining $50 miles of the L,nlaba river.
This hercueau task he expects will occupy
the next two wears.
