spheres the dupes Of the most gigantic fraud that
ever demon In human shape perpetrated. The

than to ask every man who has the happiness Of
being enlightened by the s and

part Of the difference that is transparent
between the letters which Mr.. Stanley wrote In
the name OF DR.. Livingstone and those which ho
wrote when his dear Noe was so much In his con-

writer; but he Is fertile in resources, and has the
wisdom not to depend altogether upon the posi-
tiOn which he first assumed. There Is another trf-
Ming circumstance to damage the story Of the HEB-
AID correspondent But what Is itf Mr.. Noe has
the good taste to inform his employers that some
years ago he could not agree with his companlonS

to take 1t for granted that Mr.. Noe Is right ana
