THE WAsHINGToN MONUMENT SOCIETY
held meeting yesterday-AdmiTa- Powell
in the chair and DR.. j. b. Blake secretary.
Letters were read from the Misses Brent
Mr.. X. &. Winthrop, and Senator Morrill,
The society adopted the suggestions OF Mr..
lie embarrassed by the temple or pantheon
which forms part OF the original plan, but
that IL should be confined to a simple shaft
or Obelisk; that all idea of surreudering the
charter or allowing the structure, as far a
completed, to be taken down, be and is posi-
lively and emphatically disavowed; that the
society will perseveTe in the work IL has uu-
deriaBen, and will persist in their appeal to
the public for means to finish the shaft.

Stanley Is once more lost The last that
was heard from HIM was IN April, 1870, and
then he was on the eve of exploring the
Albert N'yanza Lake, from thence passing in.
to the Tanganyika, through the connection
the existence Of which he has always main
tapcd. The Royal Geographical Society of
London however, has received the ntelli.
gence that Col. GOrdoA has succeeded in
placing small steamer on the Albert N'yan-
IN, and clrcumnavigated it, finding it to be a
lake Of li0 miles in length and fifty mics
wide in the widest part, and also discovered
that there is no connection between it and
the Tanganyika. The most important news
which he con municates is, that he found no
traces Of Stanley, ana the announcement has
caused great uneasness among his friends
Those who think that he is still alive are con
ident that, finding there was no connection
between the two lakes, he struck across the
country 400 miles TO the great Lualaba River
and will descend, via that river and the Con
90, to the west coast. If this were his route
II would be some time before any tidings
would be heard from him. Every one will
hope that the intrepid explorer will reach a
safe haven at the mouth of the Congo, bu
the prospect Is gloomy one, when it is re
membered that his route would lay through
u region filed with hostile tribes, and tina
he would be exposed to the fatal diseases Of
that part of the country,-ChicagO Tribune.
