The Lay Of the Land of Ujiji.
From the Boston Daily AdVertiser.l


Dark shades of doubt were falling on
The fate of long-lost Livigngstone,
When from the East there came good cheer,
The lost was foundi-and somewhere near
UjUii
A trusty slave,-the story went
BY said Abdallah had been sent
With grateful ws,--which loud he screeched,-
That Livingstone at last had reached
Ujui!
He'd passed through hostile tribes and lands,
Lived on the country, secured the sands,
Dangers O'ercOme scarce paralleled,
Until at last his eyes beheld
Ujiji!
Sir Roderick Murchison, who ne'er
Had thought the doctor lost, tits clear
Exclaimed 81 told you So" with glee
n But then little. thought he'd see
Ujijil
q Royal geography must thrive
Now Livingstone is still alive,
Aud our society-s0 glad =
Unto its maps must quickly add
UjUi"
Now when the story first was told:
When through all lands the tidings rolled
The quick return of Livingstone
Was looked for, ere he'd yet half done
Ujiji!
And while rejoiced the news to learn,
All hoped he'd come right home and earn
His living in quiet way,
And leave, forever and for aye,
Uj1i!
But strange to say Ujijfs land,
No one as yet can understand,
For friends who go there ne'eT come out,
But seem to wander round about
Ujijil
And when news eomes-who can tell why?-
Ii always fails to satisfy.
Accounts all have a doubtful shade,
And airs of mystery pervade
Ujiji!
" Where can it be? the maps don't tell
And is he bound there by spell"
No one can say,-but still we hear
He's in, or at, or somewhere near
Uiiji!
" What does he there SO far away!
How long does he intend to stay?"
No answer comes for our relief,
But just this word, uncouth and brief,
Ujjil
The papers groan beneath the cost
OF cabe news about the lost;
And still the story is the same,
" The latest news" and then the name
''UjiiiW
Ujiji here, Ujiji there,
Ujiii almost everywhere!
The mail and telegraph compete
To spread its fame, and still repeat
Ujji!
Though Livingstone at last is found,
He might as well be under ground,
" And better too is said, fear,
By those who ne'er more want to hear
Uiiji
Yet still he fingers !-still he staysl
And "trusty slaves" still watch his ways;
The public meanwhile wait In doubt,
Anxious to learn something about
Ujiji!
Explorers, hold your hands while
Give up the sources of the Nile!
Engage at once the "trusty slave"
And find the stream whose waters lave
Ujiji!
Then take the doctor from his lair,
And bring him home, or-anywhere
A tired-out world will call you blest
If thus you put at final rest
Uiiji!

Sometime previous 10 the Cincinnati mass
meeting, the New York Tribune, Jealous of the
reputation the Times had gained by its warfare
against the Tweed ring, began a similar attack
on ring Of the same character in Brooklyn
Its reporters made careful search for facts, and
preparation was made for thorough exposure;
but, just then, Greeley was nominated, at Gin
cinnati, for the presidency, and there was a sud-
den cessation of the Tribune's war on the Brook
lyn ring of thieving scoundrelism. The World
which is now waging a relentless warfare
against this ring, tells as follows how the
Tribune's guns were spiked An arrange
ment was made by virtue of which the
ring and the Brooklyn Eagle, which it owDs, en-
gagged TO support Greeley for the presidency, it
being understood on the other hand that the
Tribune's attacks on the ring should be dseon-
tinued. The Tribune's reporters had been en-
gagged for weeks in collecting testimony
against these thieves; and this says the World,
''was set up in Tribune type, but was kept out
of the paper when it was found that the ring
and the ring organ were going for Greeley"
Be the explanation what it may, it is certain
that the Tribune ceased 10 attack that ring, and
certain, also, that the ring and its Brooklyn
Eagle support Greeley.

That mighty creature, Upton of Nebraska,
has been very quiet since the Cincinnati mass
meeting adjourned. We suppose his previous
exertions had exhausted his strength and made
him very i'll. 1t is noticed that he is now rcviv-
ing, opening his eyes, and beginning to study
the situation. We infer that his spirits are still
dropping, for his first words are very sad and
mourniul. There has been some terrible mis-
take, he thinks; the "reformers" have blundered
and stumbled, and got themselves into bad
predicament He is now sure that the Cincip-
nati mass meeting "ousbt to have been held
after the Philadelphia convention and that

are wavering, and express no opinions, but the
great body of the republican press, and near
ly all the influential Journals, either fly
the Grant banner or are wholly committed to
his denomination. OF the democratic papers,
we have seen but one that hoists the Greeley
and Brown standard. Four-6lths of the week
lies, following the lead OF the Philadelphia Age
and Pittsburg Post, favor the nomination of a
straight-out candidate at Baltimore, and very
nearly all urge this action upon the party The
great majority, though, recognize the national
convention as the representative body and
mouthpieee of the organization, and indicate
that they will bow to its decree, however repug-
nant. But the rural democrats of Pennsylvania
are eminently traditional, and the York, Berks,
Centre and other strong democratic county or
gans threaten TO bolt before swallowing the
Greeley pill. Defeat before dshonor', is IA
vorite maxim with majority Of these Journals,
many of which to this day deny the binding
force of the fifteenth amendment hitddelphid

pluck is well known. He has not much admi-
ration for horse racing, which he, as well as
Others, thinks demoralizing in Its associations
and the cause Of infinite loss of property and
character. Almost every wear brings the ruin
of some person whose wealth or family connec-
tions were such as to give a wide noto-
rie.y TO his fall, and the number of
meaner victims to the fatal passion of
gambling on the turf may be num-
bered by thousands. 1t is reported that
several of the richest and most famous lifelong
"patrons of the turf, at last convinced of the
evils which attend the practice of racing, as it is
now conducted, threaten to withdraw from it al
together. Admiral Rous is one of these, and
some noblemen Of great wealth and famous for
the perfection and extent of their stables, are
among the number. Their simultaneous retire.
ment from the turf would be formidable blow
to the racing interest in England.
