16 OCTOBER 1869, Page 2
A telegram from Bombay of 6th October, announces that Dr.
Kirk, our Consul at Zanzibar, has received a letter from Dr. Livingstone, dated " Lake Banglewo, July 8, 1868, saying that he had found the sources of the Nile between 10 deg. and 12 deg. south." A subsequent telegram quotes a report from Dr. Kirk that he had beard of the traveller's arrival at Ujiji, and that the road to the coast was safe. No date, however, is given for this arrival, and the letter received only shows that Dr. Livingstone was safe fifteen months ago, and had, therefore, not been mur- dered as reported.
