There is some news of Emin Pasha, who has been

in severe straits for food, and whose surrender the psendo-Mandi at Khar- toum has demanded, threatening an immediate advance against him in case of his refusal. Emin was intending to anticipate this advance by an attack on the pseudo-Mandi, who seems to have made himself thoroughly hated in the neighbourhood of Khartoum by his cruelties and barbarity. Stanley, it is said, is involved in great difficulties in the country west of the Albert Nyanza, and has lost many of his followers. Of the " White Pasha " we have as yet no trustworthy news.
