ST. PETERSBURG. Oct %, 1875.
The Russian government has at last consented to

Of It's refusal has been perssteny msreprescnted and

land TO ascribe to the cooling Of those friendly rea-
tons which have long existed between Russia and
the United States, IL will perhaps be well to say few

ESPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HERALD BY CABLE !
LONDON, Nov 8, 1875.
The two letters just received from Mr..
Henry NJ Stanley are dated, respectively,
April - and IA, and were sent from Ula-
galla in Uganda, the capital of the country
ruled by King Mtesa.
A COMPLETED SURVEY.
They complete the subject dealt with in
the letters received in October
HOW THE LETTERS CAME.
An interest almost as great as that of their
contents attaches itself to the story Of the
journey of these letters from Stanley hither.
THE FArED MESSENGER
They were committed to the custody of
Colonel Debelleford, whom Stanley met at
Mtesa's court, and who left there April II.
AN EGYPTIAN OFFICER.
This gentleman was apparently attached to
the armed force which the Khedive has sent
to those parts under Gordon. He was at
Mtesa's capital with troops in pursuance of
some object related to Gordons expedition
and accepted Stanley's letters with q view to
send them down the Nile by the Khediye's
chain of posts.
ATTACKED AND MAssAcRED
He was on his return to Gordon's Station,
and when he had nearly reached it was
surprised and attacked by the Kari, by
whom he was massacred, with thirty-six Of
his soldiers.
GoRDoN's TROOPS REACH THE SCENE.
Four of his soldiers escaped and sue
ceeded in reaching Gordon, who sent o
detachment Immediately to the scene Of the
tragedy.
THE BLooD-sTANED LETTERS FOUND.
Stanley's letters, stained with blood, were
found by this detachment among the bodies
Of the slain, and carried to headquarters,
whence they were despatched down the White,
Nile to Khartoum, and thence by the Khe-
dives couriers to Cairo.
THE VICTORIA NIYANzA.
Stanley describes fully in these letters his
survey Of the southern, eastern and north
eastern shores Of the Victoria Niyanza.
THOROUGH WORK.
He gives thirty-seven observations Of bays,
inlets and creeks, minutely explored, with
view to determine their relation to the main
body Of water, and to exclude the possibility
OF their opening to other lakes or streams.
ONE GRAND BODY OF WATER.
He fully exhibits and demonstrates the
unity of this magnificent sheet of water
sPEKE INDICATED
lie says Livingstone was wrong in re-
porting that the Victoria Niyanza consisted
of five lakes. Speke correctly states that the
Victoria Niyanza is one lake."
PENINsULAs, NOT ISLANDS.
Speke's two islands are proved by STAN
ley's observations to be peninsulas.
THE RIVER sHndEEYU.
One observation further confirms the great
importance of the River Shimeeyu as the
principal feeder Of the lake and the extrem-
est source OF the Nile yet discovered.
EXCITING INCIDENTS.
Stanley depicts graphically many incidents
of his expedition. He had several conflicts
with the treacherous slave dealers on the
lake.
A NAVAL BATTLE.
On one occasion he was attacked by 100
natives armed with spears in thirteen canoes,
who were repulsed after severe fight
Three natives were killed.
AT MTEsA's HUNTING CAMP.
He arrived at Mtesa's hunting camp at
Msayura April 12, where he was received
with great ceremony and cordialitv by tho
