Abstract
ON the 12th inst. the administration of the Congo State received intelligence by way of Zanzibar that Mr. H. M. Stanley, on leaving the basin of the Albert Nyanza, endeavoured to make his way southwards by passing to the west of the Victoria Nyanza, but was unsuccessful. He then went northwards, and reached the eastern shore of the lake, Emin Pasha accompanying him. Mr. Stanley made a long stay on the borders of the lake, awaiting supplies from Msalala and Jabora, for which he had sent. He left Emin Pasha on the eastern shore of the lake several months ago, and proceeded in the direction of Mombassa. Mr. Stanley is expected to reach the eastern coast of Africa towards the end of October next.
