TUESDAY. JUNE II. 1879.

The New York Herald, we fear, overdoes the
matter of selfglorifcation on account OF "Stan-
lev" and news from Or. Livingstone Its enter
prize in sending out Stanley TO find Livingstone
at mysterious "UjiiI' or somewhere else, de-
serves all the concentration it has received; but
the result of its brave venture would re more
effective, if it should keep cool and shout mod
eratelv until Stanley and the Doctor are fairly
cont of the woods" Then, it may let on steam
10 the full extent of Its capacity and thuudcr
forth its exultation until Manhattan Island
shakes from old Kings Bridge to the Battery.
Up 10 this time, SANKEY'S news from Living
stone has been unfortunate. The Doctor has
been reported at Zanzibar, but has not been
seen there; and II has turned ont that the report
grew out of the fact that some trading or
warning Arabwas said TO have heard that he and
Stanley were at Uliji, place which many peo-
pie are inclined to regard as the most marvellous
city of wonderland. A late dispatch states that
they had emerged from that region of mystery
and were coming towards the coast. How this
was known at Bombay is not explained, save
that there is mention of ''couriers;" and how it
could be known is not easy 10 see, for it is not
Supposed that they had learned any miraculous
system of telegraphing at Ujiii. 1t is natural
10 assume that they themselves would he the
first to appear on the coast with news of their
Journey homewards Nevertheless, the Bombay
dispatch states that they were coming, that they
had reached Unyanyembe, and that Stanley,
leaving DR.. Livingstone at this place, was on his
way to Zanzibar with letters, and would he
there very soon. If this be so, the letters will
arrive and confirm the report. But why was
DIR, Livingstone left at Unyauyembe2 We hope
the next dispatch will not tell us that Stanley
has been robbed and left helpless somewhere in
the interior, and that DIR. Livingstone has been
spirited back to Ujiji.

a thing; at the same time telling the marines he
was astonished at their not being able to stop
Cady's noise. Just at that moment Cady got
his mouth clear, and remarked 10 the captain
that he was astonished at Lieutenant Commander
White for trying TO smother him TO death. This
being little too much insolence for White, he
Jumped at him with the fury of an enraged lion,
and with his own hands ATTEMPTED to stop
Cadys mouth with the swab; the latter being

effort against it man could with double irons
on bis hands aud legs. but White tugged away
for some time, while Cady kicked and thrashed
to resist the swah, when White getting tired of
his job of Eeeping the swab TO his mouth called
out for Cady's hammock to be brought; the or
der was oheyed. All this time this poor creature
in double irons was struggling with all his
might TO resist his cruel commander, and save
his own life from sulocatiou. The hammock
was brought, and Cady was ordered to be dashed
up in it like an Egyptian mummy prepared for
the catacombs. Bat he did not live long enough
for his eXecutioner 10 carry his torture to the
extent contemplated Tor David H. Cady, a man
who had served in the navy for twenty years,
and truehue American sailor, died from tor,
ture and suiiocation before he could be impris
oned in lashed-up hammock-murdered.
