STANLEY IN AFRICA

The latest published letter from
Stanley was written from the general
camp of the expedition OF the upper
Congo, January 10. 1882. The cN-
plorer and nov pioneer Of civilization
in Southwest Africa had quite recov-
cred from the Illness which came 50
near ending his work last year; and
barring the heat. bad water. and the
meagerness and monotony of his Afri-
can diet, he would appear to have
nothing to complain of. HIS party
number go, over 200 of whom are
/anzibaris, the rest are West Coast ma
tives and few whites. Fifty OF the
Zanzibaris were with him on the cXpe-
ditiOn across the continent. He dc
scribes them as 4 fine set of fellows,
obedient, docilc, brave and hardwork
ing. They will not steal because they
are intelligent enough to perceive that
this would ruin the peace which We
have hitherto kept" Further on he
says ''As for the natives themselves,
it would do you heart good to see the
crowds that gaze at us while We are at
work - the perfect confidence they
have in us. In the midst of the best
governed European capital nowhere
could you see so many children in the
same limited area as have been seen in
my camp to-day. Not one grown per
son had gun, spear, knife, or weapon
of any kind within the camp. At the
present time | have no cause of dis
content with any living person. From
the sea to the present camp Our life
has been peaceful and pleasant, 20 far
as the natives are concerned. They
have done much for me and have
done much for them. The first wear
we had some trouble with the whites.
but they were not Of my choosing
They were strangers to Alrica, and
most of them had never been out of
their own country. Consequently. one
slight fever damaged their African en-
thusiasm SO much that they begged me
to send them home. Neither the ma
tives nor the Ianzibaris ever gave me
so much trouble as those white men.
The misery Of spirit | endured the first
year eliminated in that sickness. For
months | have known neither trouble
nor discomfort. anguish Of spirit, or
bodily pain. Instead of looking back
we are now looking forward, and this
year will, | hope, see the labor &c
complished which had agreed to I'M
dertakc. The worst of it is over,thank
