THE B£LI£F EXPEDITION.

LATEST LETTER FROM ME H,

M. STANLEY,

The latest letter from Mr Stanley was re ceived in London lasfc month and was published in the ': Daily News"' of 17th June. The letter was dated Stanley Pool, 26th April.

Ifc describes in graphic and forcible lan guage some of the difficulties with which

Mr Stanley had had to contend. Ifc was remarked in connection with this letter that the flotilla under hi 3 command must move slowly and would take from 40 to 50 days in ascending the Congo. This would time Mr Stanley's arrival at the Biyerre, where he proposed to make an entrenched camp, about the 10th of June : and aft the date the letter was published (17th Juno) ifc was reckoned that ho had then probably commenced the land journey of 350 miles which separated him from tha Albert Nyanza and Emm Pasha. It was thought possible the steamers might return in time to catch the Portuguese mail of July, in which cas*j news of the expedition might bo looked for in England about the middle of August, but it was considered most probable that no farther news would be heard from from about till the 15th of September. The letter is dated " Camp near Leopold ville, Stanley Pool, 2oth April," and says : " I arrived at this place on the 21 at inst., after 2S days' march li-om the Lower Congo. The rainy season and the flooded rivers have impeded U3 greatly. But bad as is the condition of the famine stricken country below, in the neighbourhood of Stanley Pool it is worse. I have been here five days, and the people with me have only managed to secure a few bananas, just sufficient to feed 200 men one day, and I have 750 soul 3 with me. It is a period of great anxiety with us, and whether we shall be able to" tide it over without breach of order I know not. The Zanzibaris are very loyal, very obedient.: the officers, who are all English gentlemen, are super-ex cellent. With such good qualities the expedition may be expected to do all that U required by human nature. My duty, however, is not to put too severe a strain on such admirable qualities,andrelievethese people as soon as possible from the tempta tion to be otherwise than they ought to be. : Tho State, the English missions and traders, are in the same difficulties of provisioning their dependants as we are. You can imagine how great the stress is here when the State, after sending foraging parties round about the district, can only secure ■food enough for a third of his force. The other two-thirds live on hippopotamus meat, which their hunters provide. We have also sent out our hunter 3. We have had one hippopotamus within five day 3 for 730 souls. In 1883 a missionary named Sims applied for a .-site at Stanley Pool to establish a mission of the Livingstone Inland Mission. Hi 3 colleagues had vainly striven without aid from me to obtain per mission from tho natives. I gave an order to the chief of Leopoldville to locate Dr. Sims on a site in the neighborhood of the station, so that, times being unsettled then, the mission could be under our immediate protection. In ISB4I extended the grounds of this mission, and also gave it a site for a branch mission at the Equator, subject, of course, to confirmation at Brussels. By a curious event—'Oh arriving at Stanley Pool this time—l found myself in the position of an abject suppliant for favor. Her Majesty the Sovereign of this Congo ■State had invited me to take the Congo River route to relieve Emm Pascba at Wadelai. Provided the steamers and; boats were.at Stanley Poolin time, wifch% out dcubt this rouTO"* was by far the cheapiffc and best, even though food was7 nob over abundianb.—|jelhere£oiev accepted the invitation tind catne here. But I had not anticipated. this distressful scarcity of food, nor the absence oi steamers and . boats. To evecy one at Stanley Pool it was clear that.a disaster would be the conse quence of this irruption of a large caravan upon a scene so unpromising as this food - less district. The only remedy for ib was immediate departure up river. Long be fore arrival 1 had sent letters of appeal to the English Baptist Mission, owners of the steamer Peace, and to the Livingstone Inland Mission, which is now America and owners of the steamer Henry Reed, for aid to transport the expedition to Bolobo im mediately upon arrival at Stanley Pool. Reports confirmatory of the state of famine in that district were daily reaching me, and immediate departure Avas our only means of saving life and preventing a gross scandal. A few days later I received a letter from a Mr Billington, in charge of the Henry Reed, saying he could not lend the steamer for such purpose, as he wanted to go down river- i.e., overland to the Lower Congo—' for some purpose, and next month the Livingstone Inland Mission expected some missionaries, and in the interval the steamer Henry Reed was to be drawn up on the slip to ba repainted.' You will observe, as I did, that there was no question of urgency. The steamer was to lie idle on the slip for repainting while Mr Billing ton should go down the river to be comfor tably married to some lady whose photo graph he had seen, for this was ' the pur pose ' that was taking him from the Pool. Meantime the starving people would be tempted to force from every native or white the food which they could nob obtain by purchase; and no one knows to what ex tent disorder would spread. I consulted the Governorof Stanley Pooldistrict, Mons. Lieb riechts, and represented to him that a great scandal was inevitable unless means were devised to extricate us from the difficulty. I himifcold I could not be a disinterested wit ness to the sufferings which starvation would bring with it; that therefore a for. mal requisition should be be made by him on lhe mission for the use of their steamers for a short terra of, say, 40 days; that the Henry Reed was evidently, according to Mr Billington's let ter, to lie idle for a period of over two months; that this period could bo utilised by us in saving hundreds of lives ; that their objections were frivolous, and those o# Dr. Sims were the result of a refusal by Rja to employ him on this expedition, while M' Billington was onry hungering after t) i 6 pleasures of marriage with a person, w]j/ he never saw. M. Liebriecht admijjte/ ' chat the position was desperate and, nx f xeme • that the State was also in a paiiaifiv/ijncer certainty as to whether provision/ > oll i f 2 be procured for its people ea.cn, ft* rj^ e next morning Major Bartf jlot £ ld Mr Mounteney Jephson werei ser' Dover am to tho Livingstone Inland nusf 10tl tc< try a third appeal with Mr Bxlhngto' vvh atmly replied that he had ' drayerfuß- wres t4ed even unto fcho third watch agair J the necessity there urns of refusing the He nry Reed. He was ponfirmed in his r j inion t J hat he was < act . Ing wisely and , For two d the matter coHtina- jd in the hands of r Ue _ oneciits, wftrj afc last signed a charter in h' HF' which the mission permits the c o*. w c gteamer Henry Reed to us for Ji6 smm ■ot Lloo per mon th, which is at tho ,t?- "® per con t per annum of her esti ptiktf ji va i ue , j{ u t, what ungrateful people iffi .c of these missionaries are. Faith, y^ey may have in superabundance—in hope -hey no doubt live cheerfully ; bnfc of iharity, I do not find the slightest trace. fiowever, our matter is ended, and our nxiety has abated somewhat. The Stan- By steamer leffc here yesterday for Mswata /it-h the first detachment of 163, and will :eturn the day after to-morrow. Wo have »o\r remaining for departure next Friday, »r Saturday at furthest, the following tran sport vessels : —Stanley, 160 men, 400 loads j donkoys; gujj of Florida, 100 men. 100

loads, 6 donkeys ; Peace, 50 men, 100 loads; Ist barge, 33 men ; 2nd barge, 50 inch; Henry Reed, 50 men, 100 loads ; 3rd barge, 40 men ; 4th barge, 35 men —total, 590 men, 700 loads, 12 donkeys. There will be then none remaining afe Stanley Pool. We shall push on as fast as the steamers can tow the barjjes, which will be probably tho rate the slow paddle boat En Avent ascended in 1883. N&ir (Stanley Falls or at the rapids of the Biyerre River I will form an entrenched camp, and must use every precaution to make this camp safe. During the ascent of the Congo I shall have leisure to study tbid question. Having formed a safe camp I shall push on lightly equipped, and make forced marches through the unknown terri tory. Until we have reached the site of our camp on tha Upper Congo, and the Stanley deeends to bring up thd detachment which will be left at Bolobo, under Major Bartte lot, you caunot receive any further direct news from us. :i
