Abstract
THE publication of two letters in the New York Herald from Dr. Livingstone has thrown some new light upon the discoveries on which the famous traveller has been engaged since 1867. The letters purport to have been written by the great traveller himself, but they bear unmistakeable marks of having been manipulated to suit the tastes of the readers of that very sensational newspaper. Yet, until the traveller's own journals are before the world, we must be content to gather as much information as may be picked up from this source, doubtful though it be.
