LONDON, Dec /. 1877.
The Times. in an editorial on Stanley,
says:-'It will be remembered to the honor
of the press that the final discovery Of
African geography was made by news
paper correspondent. It is easy for the
world at home to avail itself of the
results of the enterprise displayed in the
descent of the Lualaba and to criticise the
methods employed, but we must acknowl-
edge the admirable courage of the gallant
explorer.
LEAP IN. THE DARK.
"a man might almost as well allow himself
TO be dropped from balloon into the mid
die of the Atlantic, in order to see where the
winds and currents would carry him. The
undertaking Of Mr.. Stanley was in all re-
spects launch in the dark The grand
result deserves all the honor that we can
render the man."
THE PopE's CONDITION.
The HERALD correspondent in Rome tel
egraphs that since the 22d ult. the Pope's
legs have been swollen to an unusual de-
gree and the discharge is SO copious as to
cause uneasiness. Yesterday he received
the officers of the Palatine Guard and
chatted and joked with great vivacity.
SECRET CoNsIsToRY.
It is now believed certain that the Con-
sistory will meet in the Pontiffs eedroom,
and the fact has given rise to considerable
speculation. On all sides it is looked upon
as significant and as betokening the begin
ming Of the end.
NEARING THE END.
It is doubted at the Vatican whether the
Pope will ever again move from his bed.
He looks we'll when recumbent, but when
an attempt was made to dress him it was
discovered that he could not sit upright.
