The Herald Central Africa Explorer
Nearing Home.

BY cable despatch from Alden, at the
mouth of the Red Sea, on the Arabian side,
we learn that Mr.. Stanley, commander Of
the HERALD Search Expedition into Cen
trail Africa was there, and would start
yesterday for London in company with the
son of DIR. Livingstone, the great explorer.
He bears letters from the long-lost Doctor to
the English government and his family and
friends. The HERALD correspondent will thus
in few days find himself close to the
ground over which his dispatches to this jour-
nal travelled, on their way to enlighten the
British government upon the end of the
Abyssinian war in the capture Of Magdala and
the death of King Theodorus. second time
will he be, on the part of the New YORK
HERALD, the bearer of highly important in
formation to that government. Thus the
newspaper marches onward in its path of USE
fulness, and finds, as it widens its operations,
that the most powerful cabinets and thrones
become indebted to it for vital knowledge of
events, as they have for years learned to take
its voice deeply into account when forming
their opinions on the feelings, tendencies and
aspirations of the people.
The despatch states that at the time of part
ing with the HERALD correspondent DR.. Liv-
ingstone was not in good health, but that his
determination was 10 remain amid tho heather

maturely to the grave; there is Sew
ard. one of the wisest men of the lot in dis
missing his disappointments like aphilosopher
and in enjoying his retirement like Christian.
And so we might go on through hundred
names and more of the disappointed men who
in the pursuit of the. White House, have seen
it fade before them and vanish like the lovely
picture of palace, with its groves and foun-
tains, in the mirage of the desert, leaving
nothing before them and around them but
their exhausted fellow travellers and the burn
ing waste of sand But we have given enough
for the moral of our story. Happy are they
who escape this contagion of the White House
fever and wise are they whose ambition for
distinction and glory lies not in that direction.
The unfortunate Buchanan was more than half
right in his opinion that the occupant of the
White House is but the chief servant in a free
hotel and that he is not the lucky man who is
coming in, but he who is going out

A HINT FOR GREELEY.-The negroes of the
South are supposed to be prepared to vote for
s.Massa Grant" the man in the Union uniform
who scattered the armies of the. Confederacy
and gave freedom to their race. Greeley, as
an old abolitionist, whose means and efforts
have been freely given for the liberation of
slaves from bondage, and who distinguished
himself for years as the head Of one of the
great underground railroads of the aboli-
ton societies, should not suffer tho
negro vote to be lost to him by
default. He should travel from State to State
of the South in his old white hat and long
brown coat, and harangue the colored people
on the issues of the campaign. A rear view
of him in this costume bears a close resem-
blance to respectable plantation negro of
Old Virginia, and we believe he would make
hit among the colored brethren. We offer the
suggestion for the benefit OF General Coch-
rane, whose admirable tact and ability as
political manager will at once convince him of
its value.

THE GREENBRER RIVER DISASTER, O full
account of which is given in our special
despatch elsewhere, can only be regarded as
an additional proof of the uncertainty of life
on the rail, and also Of the reckless and un-
satisfactory manner in which railroad plans
and constructions are examined and tested
before entrusting human life on them. This
bridge over the Greenbrier River had only
been completed few days and handed over
by the contractors to the railroad company.
1t appears to have been temporary trestle
work construction on a foundation intended
for permanent roadway. But it would seem
that fair and practical test should have
shown the weakness of the two spans which
gave way, and hence avoided the loss of life
and destruction of property. Not one OF the
fifteen employees on the train escaped. Six
were instantly killed and the remaining nine
were terribly mangled. A train with hun
dreds of passengers would have shared the
same fate. The engine, cars and bridge are,
Of course, complete wreck. 1t now remains
to be seen who will be held responsible for
the accident

The Proposed VISIT OF THE EMPEROR OF
AUSTRIA TO BERLIN is the subject of consider
able gossip in the Austrian and German capi-
tails. 1t is regarded as the natural consequence
of the meeting at Ischel and Salzburg last
year. Since 1866 there has been a GOODNESS
between the two Kaisers, which was in part
cleared up by the meeting of 1871. The visit
of Francis Joseph to Berlin this year will COM

The COMMERCIAL Policy OF FRANCE. The
French Parliament yesterday sustained NJ.
Theirs plan of commercial protection by vote
in which it Disseminated against the immediate
interests Of the importers of articles for use in
manufacture and in favor of those of the traders
by retail and the manufacturers as sellers of
goods at home. The National Assembly re-
jected motion TO impose tax of one franc in
the thousand upon sales. The majority was
very decisive, and its record accepted as
legislative vindication of the industrial and
tariff income views of the President.

The ORANGE PARADE TO-DAY. In pursu-
ance of their announced intention the
Orangemen will parade through our city to-
day. clad in the regalia of their order 1t
is to be hoped that no act on the part of
their opponents will give any tinge of i'm
portance to the demonstration, which last
year was only saved from ridicule by the
unwise action of some hot-headed Hi
bernians. The authorities have made pre-
parations for the worst but we hope
that nothing will occur which would com.
pei them to interfere So far there is
prospect of q peaceful twelfth, and we hope
the good sense of the Irish population will
prevent any attempt at disturbance being

Fearful State OF Things In Mexico.
Mexico, heretofore fearfully demoralized, is
going from one bad state of things to worse
day by day. The despatch we published re-
Gently from the city of Mexico, date July l.
shows that assassinations and kidnapping pre-
vail everywhere and that revolutionary move
ments are increasing The Mexican journals
are full of complaints against the usurpation OF
the government. The Postmaster General re-
ports that during the last year there have been
hundred and twenty-eight public robberies
of the mails. What other evidence is needed
to show the powerlessness of the government.
or rather the want of government, and utter de-
moralization in that country2 We are in
formed, too, that a wealthy proprietor, Miguel
Uribe, was kidnapped near the capital, taken
out of his carriage, in which he was
riding with his family, and carried of
to the mountains. Juan Cervantes, another
prominent citizen, was kidnapped in one OF
the principal streets of the capital while re-
turning home from the theatre and ransom
of six thousand dollars demanded Of him.
Mr.. Bassoes, Frenchman, was kidnapped
also in the environs of the city. The estab
lishment of Arcisaga, in the town of Tecome,
was entered by band Of eighty men and
robbed, and son and brother -in-law Of the
proprietor were murdered. In all countries
and even in our own, there are violations Of
the law such as robberies and murders but
in Mexico they are not merely the crimes Of
single individuals or of q few individuals, but
of organized and powerful bands. These bands
defy the government and kidnap and rob
people under its eyes, The government can
not even protect the mails. 1t has not power
enough to protect the citizens in their homes
at the capital. In fact, there is no government
worthy of the name in Mexico. That country
is disgrace to the civilization of the age. 1t
has no elements in itself of improvement and
must sink lower and lower in anarchy and
degradation unless the United States assume
protectorate over it or take possession of the
country.

A War Cloud In Brazil.

Brazil and the Argentine Confederation are
pouring out walls of wrath against one an
other. The former allies and victors of poor,
depopulated Paraguay have fallen out over the
spoils Of the war. The Minister of the Argen-
tine Confederation, in long note addressed to
the Brazilian government, taunts the latter
with angry reproaches of bad faith, cowardice,
rapacity, downright dishonesty and downright
lying. There is but the historical expression.
"You lie, you villain, you lie!" wanting to
complete the delightful frankness of the docu-
ment. To this insolent note, says cable
despatch from Lisbon Brazil has replied in
terms still more defiant. Indeed the excellent
letter Of our Rio Janeiro correspondent.
which we publish elsewhere, foreshadows this
answer of the Brazilian government 1t
describes the vast preparations for war, the
relative strength of the two countries and the
imminent danger of hostilities. It is. how
ever, to be hoped that the two Powers will
pause, and try peaceful means of settlement
before they reopen the bloody chasm which
but lately closed after such terrible sacrifices
Of human life and the annihilation of brave
nation.

SPECIAL NOTICES.

Aggravated Indigestion. Persons who
are predisposed to dyspepsia, find their suier-
ings from this cause greatly aggravated BY
damp weather. easterly winds. and sudden
changes from mild TO chilling atmosphere.
In the spring, therefore, the pangs Of indi-
gestion are seriously augmented BY the atmos-
pheric variations peculiar to the season, and
it is incumbent upon all who desire to pass
through the ordeal of its cold mists and insa-
lubrious gales with easy stomschs. and un-
tormented by the Undesirable torments
which accompany dyspepsia, to tone and
strengthen the digestive organs with health
full and effective vegetable invigorant; ana
no one at all familiar with the medical record
Of the age, can question for one moment that
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is the Tonic best
adapted to this purpose. The credentials Of
the Great Restorative are unequaled In num-
Der and character BY those of any other ad-
vertised medicine in the world. lfeyer there
was preparation to rank as National
Remedy, this wonderful specific has q fair
claim to the title. For a period OF twenty
years it has literally been the champion
Tonic and Alternative on this side OF the At
lantic. In popularity it has never been APP
preached by any of its would-be competitors,
and its annual sales are so far in advance OF
those of any other medicine of its class. that
comparisons would be ridiculous. One OF
two conclusions is inevitable: Either the
American people are deficient in common
sense, and incapable of rational diserimina-
ton, or Hostetter's Bitters is the best proven
tive remedy for indigestion. fever and ague'
bilious remittent fever, constipation, rhsu-
matism, nervous complaints. and all mala-
dies of an epidemic or endemic type. Tho
reader viii judge for himself which OF tho
two conclusions is most consistent with fact
