San Bernardino letter to the Sar
francisco Alta says: After leaving here
the party in search of ". r. Cornman
who recently was lost on his way from
San Bernardino, proceeded to the forks
| of the road, and thinking he had proba-
bly, taken the new stage road, chose that
for their route and travelled it to Resting
Springs, where they found he had left on
Wednesday morning, the 18th ult. They
retraced their steps to the station, seven
miles, and making inquiries, found that
Cornmrn had remained there over nignt,
and had inq.ired about the road of a
man who was stopping there, and
| through whose ignorance he was misdi-
rected, and started upon the Bitter Cree Z
road instead of the new Stage road, as
intended. Following the road he had
been sent the party found traces of him
at Salt Springs, about tweoty miles this
side of the station, and again about five
miles further on this side, where it was
evident he had stopped and sat under o
bush to rest.
No further traces were found until
they had travelled about twenty miles
further, where they found he had left
the road and ridden up en- q point of
rocks, with the apparent intention of
looking around to see if there we're any
signs OF water. At this point he left the
road entirely and started down a wash
where there were bushes growing and
water he endeavored to retrace his steps
and return to the road, but had lost il.
From this place he was traced some
twenty miles further, wandering toward
and away from the road, evidently with~
out knowing where he was or in what di.
rection he was going. He then made
toward cannon, which he hoped would
furnish him water, but was again dlsap~
pointed, and here ne rode his horse up
another mountain for the purpose of re-
connolsance, but no water was within
reach. He then returned toward the
mouth of the cannon, stopping about
and gave it a feed of barley, and lay
down under q rock for the night. In the
morning he wandered about a mile fur
ther down the cannon, apparently with~
out any defined purpose, as his steps in
dicated that he was not in sane state
of mind. At this point he sat down
egain under bush, and fully realizing
the horrible helplessness Of his position

there was no possibility of escape) he put
an end to his sufferings BY shooting him
by the party as be fell. not having been
mutilated by wild beasts, and was tenn
porarily buried until they can return
and bring the body to town for burial.
The horse had become so gaunt from
long fasting and fatigue that the saddle
had slipped from his back, and the
tracks around his dead master showed
that the faithful beast had remained
with him until his own necessities had
driven him 10 seek water, and he started
out on the desert to perish from thirst,
All the papers and personal effects of
the deceased were found on him, but no
word was left explaining the situation.

stanIey's Letter r rom Mya nswe

The two letters which we publish this
morning from Henry NJ. Stanley are
written on subjects of the deepest inter
ests to the Reographer and the humani-
tartan. They treat respectively of slav-
cry and of LYingstone's journey in the
remote interior OF the African continent
at the time when fatigue and sick ness
and the iDtirmities of age combined to
imprison the lonely traveller within a
very small area of exploration. The
horrors of the atrocious slave trade are
depicted by an eye witness of the mise.-
les of It's victims and the terrible depopu-
lation ofonce smiling and we'll cult vated
districts. Few travellers have had the
opportunity Rsuch ..as Stanley enjoyed of
recording on the very ground of expior-
alton the strange sights and incidents of
travel in region SO little known to the
outside world. Indeed, this particular
district of Nyangwe may be said to have
been visited by only two explorers Liv-
ingstone and Stanley-for Cameron made
no excursion northward when he'found
his journey down the Lualaba barred by
the savages. One of the witnesses is
dead; the other now gives us the opening
chapters of the story of which will en-
tighten, us as to a region of which no.
thing was previously known. One can
share Stanley's gleom when, surrounded
by the natives, he learned the partlcu-
lars of the last wanderings of the man he
risked so much to rescue, but who, with
heroric stubbornness, refused to leave
his work unfinished and died in the eff
fort to accomplish it. We can readily
understand how appropriate, then, is
Stanley's suggestion to name the Luala-
ba after its discoverer. Every object
that he gazed on inspired Stanley with
sympathy for the man who, knowing
that his days were numbered, ran race
with Death along the line of discovery,
which was now about to be followed
with success. So it is and ever will be
Some SOW the seed and Others gather the
harvest.
In his comments on the slave trade
which still hourishes in Central Africa,
like a poisonous plant that overgrows
and destroys all its touches. Stanley
points to where and by whom this in
iqnitous traffic is most actively main
tanned. In the face of outraged clviliza-
tion great Powers preserve friendly rela-
tions with the authors of this cruel dev; =
tating trade. If the only result OF STAN
ley's Journeys was the exposure ofthe
slave trade, which Is connived at by
great European commercial nations, 1t
would be a praiseworthy achievement
worthy of the days of chiva1ry. But
Stanley has accomplished more than this
by opening to the world a territory so
vast and varied in character 3s to tempt
that of themselves annihilate
the illegimate trade in human beings. If
produc ion attracts commerce the poor
EST policy that the Arabs could adopt
toward the natives would be to kill them
off, as they now do. Labor would be to
to warrant an indulgence in
massacre, and one of the first
results of commerce would be the pre-
of human life. With commerce
would come, and then free
dom. 1t is not easyto place limit to the
advantages that must arise from STAN
ley's snccess.-N. Y. Herald.

thing but permanent. The stockholders
have held meeting with view of sav.
ing the concern from being sold out by
the sheriff. There is a debt of 1854 900
due by the company, of which $180,0Co
are due to the Centennial Board of FL
nance, and $4,000 to individual credi-

aid to it if there be chance of its being
