We checkcd the first advance of the natives with a little skirmish and captured a cow, the first meat we bad tasted since leaving the ocean. Night passed peacefully. In the morning we opened a parley. The natives were anxious to know who wo were, and we were equally anx'ous to glean news. They said MC scunboni only held the country for who was their real king. They Anally accepted cloth and brass rods to show Mutamboni, and hostilities were suspeudod until morning, when Maxamboni sent word that we must be driven from the land. Hie proclamation was greeted in the valley with deafening cheers. Their word Kanwana signifies peace and Kurwana war. Wo hoped we had heard wrongly, therefore, and sent our interpreter nearer to inquire. They responded 'Kurwana,' and emphasized it with two arrows fired at him. Our hlli was between two valleys.

He says be had established « palisaded camp at Yambuya, on the lower Arawhlmi, just below the first rapids, and appointed Barttelot commandant, with Jamieaon associated with him. On the arrival o(t the men and goods from Stanley Pool and Bolobo the other officers were to report to Barttelot for duty, but no important action was to be taken without consulting Uessr*. Jamteson, Troup and Ward. The officers admitted that the instructions were explicit and clear. Barttelot had Ss»T men. He was to stay at Yambuya until the steamer arrived from Stanley Falls with men and gools, and if Tippoo Tib furnished the carriers promised, he was to march, following the track biased out by Stanley's advance column. If the carriers did not arrive, Barttelot might disregard these directions and begin short journeys until Stanley should come down to his relief. lag with Emln Paoha.

The relations of Teller, Plumb, and Ingalls to the* interior department, and the election of Ingalls and Evarts to the senate are said to be the themes upon which Mr. Halstead's paper will noon discourse at length. The affair has undoubtedly created some feeling of hostility between the senate fynd the president. It has given a chance fw some of the bottled indignation over nominations to escape.

He was to stay at Yambuya until the steamer arrived from Stanley Falls with men and gools, and if Tippoo Tib furnished the carriers promised, he was to march, following the track biased out by Stanley's advance column.
