STANLEY'S PROGRESS.
HE HAS FOUGHT HIS WAY THROUGH A HOSTILE COUNTRY.
The "Mouvement Geographlque," of Brussels, abates that Henry M. Stanley is marching toward Momba«sa, after fighting his way through the hostile country of the TJmjoro and Uganda tribes and congtiering the natives. "He has," the paper say's, " established the authority of the British Eaab Africa Company from the upper Nile to the east coast.' . The paper declares ib to be doubtful if Emm Pasha, to whose relief the Stanley expedition was originally sent, is accompanying Stanley to the coast. A cable despatch from Zanzibar to the Government of the Congo State says: "Stanley, on leaving the basin of the Alberb Nyanza, endeavoured to make his way southward by passing to the west of Victoria Nyanza, but failed. Hβ then went northward and reached the eastern shore of the lake, and Emm Pasha accompanied him. After a long stay on the borders of the lake awaiting supplies, Stanley, leaving Emm Pasha, marched in the direction of Mombassa. He is expected to reach the eastern eea coast about) the end of October."
