-R onnd ,hs ii ustrious German

Round the illustrious German
whom Stanley went out to rescue,
n great deal OF interest and curiosity
Is gathered. What Stanley has TO
sayof Efnin Pasha will therefore be
read with the utmost attention. The
conference for the supifeasion OF
the slave trade il now in session at
Brussels. The persons composing
this conference have already re-
solved TO continue their sittings or
TO adjourn from time to time until
the arrival of Stanley and Emin
Pasha.An interesting Occasionis an
ticipated when Cardinal Bayigerie,
representative of France, Emin
Pasha, the representative Of Ger
many, and Stanley who in reality
is representative Of both England
and America, shall meet to compare
notes and discuss the question OF the
slave trade, and the opening up Of
the Dark Continent TO the forces of
civilization. SOnle surprise has
been expressed in some quarters,
especially by British journals, that
Emin Pasha should have hesitate1
so long before accepting btanley's
proilered aid. But n moments
thought will be sufficient TO show
US that Emin's conduct was per
fectly reasonable. No doubt Emin |
was personally very glad for the
sympathy manifested toward him,
but there were other considerations /
that caused him to vacilate for sew
erai months. Meanwhile SANKEY'S
forces were rapidly diminishing,
and II is prliseworthy trait
In Stanleyis character that
he waited 50 long, until Il
became manifest 10 all, even 10
Emin Pasha, that he had not only
lost control of the country that he
had held so long, but was likewise
in danger Of being killed by his
mutinOGs troops. As is well known
Emin Pasha was acting under the
Of the German govern
mcnt. and patriotic motives would
make him reluctant TO surrender
hose rich African territories to the
control of the English. AS n Ger
nan, Emin Pasha would fain have
;aTied Uut Bismarck's dream Of n
great African colonial empire.
