The March to the Sea.

AN ACCOUNT OF STANLEY'S JOURNEY FROM MPWAPWA—BRILLIANT PICTURE OF THE KETURN OF THE EXPLORERS,

A special correspondent of the New. York World, writing from Cairo on January Ist, says : Stanley's journey from Mpwapwa to Bagamoyo was an interesting and pictur- esque one. Day by day on the march the World man also had an opportunity to ob- serve 8 i.ething of the daily life of camp and trail and of Stanley's methods. The explorer was quartered in a green water- proof tent shout eighteen or twenty teet square. Tl.is was not che tent with which he started up the Cougo but which he was eventually obliged to leave behind because it required so many carriers to convey it from camp to camp. This tent, according to Nelson, was a gorgeous canvas villa con- taining no less than six apartmtnts—parler, bedroom, dining room, kitchen, bath room, etc., with every convenience that could be provided in a movable dwelling. It is well known that Stanley considers a comfortable, waterproof, roomy tent a very necessary thing to have in Africa, and there is no doubt that the six-roomed tent was a sen- sible idea. It seemed to the writer, how- ever, that a little forethought on Mr. Stanley’s part on behalf of the young officers who had not had the same experi- ence to guide them, would not: have been out of place. Their tents might very well have been about three times larger than they were. Each one had a very small separate tent. Emin Pasha hada roumy, very good tent, and beside it was pitched another equally comfortable in which were housed three very good looking Egyptian women and the pasha’s little daughter, Farida.

On the march from camp to camp Stanley and bis choice following of picked pegazis and soldiers cut 4 picturesque and promin- ent figure in the long procession of nearly @ thousand people in Indian file on the winding African road, Thirty or forty men of the expedition had been rewarded with flaming red biankets for good serviee, and had been promoted by Stanley to the honor of carrying his tent and personal effects. Staniey rode a very good donkey, which was presided over by a young man with a red turban, red knee-breeches and red shirt, and who seemed particularly proud of the exalted position to which he had on his personal merits climbed. Be- hind the donkey streamed the great ex- plorer’s red blanket brigade, with boxes, tent, etc., on their heads, and with the red blankets proudly trailing to their heels be- hind. The scarlet brigade, with Mr. Stanley on his donkey in the lead, hurried aloag, passing the vthers as a fast train passes a slow one, and usually reached camp in advance. If the sun was shining Stanley hoisted a big greenish umbrella. The rest of Stanley's people were divided into companies or divisions, of which each officer had command anc was responsible for certain goods. Of the Europeans, Stan- ley, Emin, Casati, Jephson and Bonny rode donkeys ; Parke, Stairs and Nelson walked. Parke has never ridden a step of the way across Africa. Two picked carriers con- veyed Emin Pasha's little girl in a_ litter, and of the Egyptian and mongrel women some rode donkeys, some walked and some were carried on stretchers.

Men and women carried infants on their shoulders, though not always, for one of the,sad sights of the daily march was poor lictle picauinnies of six or seven years old, sore footed and weary, hobbling along and crying all the time to be carried. Whata time it must have been to these small mis- erables trudging along day after day on the endless road, thirsty, hungry, tired, stub- bing sore toes, stepping on a thorn now and then, weeping and snvfilng, losing sight of their mothers if they bad any, jostled and passed by rude, brutish men, who wished them dead and out of the way —)ovor little wretches! Then there were Wanyrmvezl porters bringing ivory, who had joined the caravan for safety to the coast; Emin’s Egyptian officers and « motley assortmeut of negresses from the equatorial provinces. Wives and concubines of the vilivers and sujdiers, sume in the primative costumes of their country and tribe, others wearing clothes. Altogether these various elements must have swelled the total to near a thousand souls. Andso one interesting cavalcade marehed seaward from camp to camp, and at Kik« ta our ears were greeted by the distant boom ef the sunset gun at Bagamoyo. Stanley's people danced and sang with joy at the familiar sound of a cannon boom. Some of them sat up ail night singing and dancing so that they would hear the morning gun also, and so reassure themselves that there was no mistake. It was atime of great feasting and merrymaking, those few last days of the great expedition. Beiter late than never was never more aptly illustrated than on the occasion of the arrival of the Emin relief committee's caravan. Thiak of 200 Icads of provisions reaching this mob but three marches from Bagamoyo! Stanley and his officers barely knew what to do with things. Black-skinned Goths and Vandals were seen running about the camp with tius of sweet biscuits, bottles of pickles, pots of marmalade and jam, tins of meat, cheese and other goud dainties from the region of the blest “Ulaya,” eating, handing them about, dividing, swapping, rioting, revelling as never negroes did be- fore in Africa, surely. Stanley presented my four runners with a whole lead of rice —sixty pounds—which they lugged into Bagamvyo to their homes on the following day.
