naval forces which the Imperial Govern
ment maintains in and around South At
RIGA. Sir T. Shepstone was instructed
to invite the Transvaal Government to
enter u confederate union with the British
Colonies, retaining local self-government,
but submitting to a "common policy" in
native affairs, and recognising the British
flag. The Vo'ksraad sfoutIy rejected
these proposals, and an attempt was made
to fill the Treasury, and to show a unit
ed front to the natives. According
to Sir L. Shepstone, these efforts, if
they were indeed intended to sue
coed at al, resulted in a dangerous
failure. The taxes were not paid, the
violence of factions showed no signs of
mitigation. aud the Zulus became more
aaAA more threatening. Their attack
d have precipitated q native war
from the Cape to the Sandy Desert, and
this was too fearful a hazard to be encoun-
tered with a light heart by a quarter Of
u million of Europeans, scattered over q
country more than twice the extent of
France! he risks of annexation on the
whole, seemed to be less, and Sir T.
Shepstone has faced them boldly. His
dispatches to the Colonial Office will, Of
course, tell the whole story, and in the
meantime there seems to be the best reason
for trusting in his judgment and support
ing his acts. The Beers of the Transvaal
are too few to resist annexation, even if
they had any natural appetite for fighting,
which their conduct in the late war with
the Kafirs does not lead us to believe,
There will, no doubt, be a protest and o
Parliamentary debate, but Lord Carnar-
Won, we are sure, will be able to show
that the necessity of the case was iudisS
putable, and that he had exhausted every
form of peaceful persuasion before resort
ing to the threat of coercion.-Spec!ator

THE OF THE
TRANSVAAL.

The addition of a territory as large as
Italy to. the dominions of the British
Crown is an event which cannot be passed
over without notice. Since Lord Grey's
administration # the Colonial Ofica,
English statesmen have held vigorously to
the principle that no extension of the
Queens dominiOns is to be sanctioned, eX-
cept upon clear proof Of necessity. Nor
has this tradition been reversed by Con-
seryative statesmen, although the cesslon
of the Fiji Archipelago was, after much
hesitation, accepted by Lord Carnaryon.
There the plea Of necessity was put for
ward in the most forcible way, and the
t eacherous murder OF Bishop PattesOn
gave the argument q hold upon the ina
ginations Of the English that probably 10
mere appeal to reason world have been
able to give it. The annexation OF the
Transyaal Republic is, however, a very
different affair from the admission of Fiji
to tie privileges o! a British colony. The
Transvaal is colonised by a population of
European descent, with o Government of
their own, with traditions, placing them
in an attitude Of fierce hostility to the
British Government, aud with an obstina-
~ Of nature characteristic OF tier Dutch
origin. II in Iii we assumed the gov
eminent at the request Of the European
adventures who had settled in the c0un-
try, aud with the acquicscence Of The
Naive Chiefs, the Dutch of the South
African Republic" had not only not invited
us to rule them, but had vehemoutly re-
iected our p%rofercd sovereignty ard pro-
lection. We have been compelled TO
annex the Transyaal-the Republic found
cd by the Dutch settlers to the north of
the Vaal River, OF which we recognized
the Independence, after long delays and
searching doubts, in 1652-and the pro-
cl4matiou Of tie Queens authority has
only not been resisted because the Beers,
obstinate and ignorant as they are, could
not refuse to make submission to the men,
ace of a British force maSsed on tie Natal
frontier. 1t is evident that the result has
both astonished and disappointed many
CT the most eminent members of the Liber-
al party, and We cannot doubt that the
announcement of.it will have a grating
sound upon the ear of those who always
see in annexation a policy of selfish ambi-
ton. Our Imperial domain is SO vast,
and teens with so many duties, but halt
fulfilled, that Engli>hmPn are apt to feel
a touch of regret, and almost of shame, at
the forcible assertion of sovereignty over
any community which desires to govern
itself.
Yet it is quite clear that the annexa-
ton of the Transvaal could notbe avoided,
and that on full disclosure of the facts,
the country must be prepared to sustain
the action of Sir Theophllus Shepstone
aud the policy of Lord Carnarvon. We
must remember what the situation was
from which the Cololial Office has so IN
.expectedly made an advance outside the
lines of custom and tradition. The native
racesin that portion of South Africa which
isrartially settled by Europeans, OF subject
to the sovereignty of European Powers,
and which is bounded Stewards by the
two oceans, and landwards by the Orange
and the Limpopo rivers, number, according
to the best calculation, nearly two millions.
