GILMoRE's national anthem has been
fairly launched on the wave of public
opinion. 1t was produced on Christmas
day in the Academy of Music, New
York, before a large and enthusiastic
audience. Gilmore is an Irishman,
but that fact does not d%isqualify him
from writing a hymn for the United
States. We are much indebted to for
eiguers for q number of things which
are usually considered strictly Ameri-
can in origin and use An English
man wrote yankee DOODLE An
Englishman designed the coat of arms
of the United States. An Englishman
suggested the general plan for the
''Star spangled banner" An English
man even designed the new silver dol
lar. 1t is a relief therefore to have an
Irishman lend us some assistance.

THERE is more success attending
British arms in South Africa than in
Afghanistan. This is due to several
reasons, one of the first of which, per-
haps, is the superiority of the general
officers in the former region. Another
is that the country over which the
marching and fighting have been done
presents comparatively fewer obstacles
to a speedy and successful military
campaign. At all events, the supre-
macy Of British arms in South Africa
is about established. Cetewayo, the
king o. the Zulus, has been a prisoner
for several months, and now Chief
Secoceoni is also a captive. 1t is not
improbable that the struggle against
the interference and oppression of Brit
ish power will end. England may now
reap whatever fame and honor belong
to it for having conquered a savage
people after a war unholy waged and
disastrous in blood and treasure. And,
by the way, Great Britain is the only
civilized power in the world that keeps
the past century on the stage of action
the only nation that continues wars o
conquest against savage peoples whose
only offending is the possession of valu
able lands, or a scientific frontier
The world has voted these things a,
inliuman and i~nexcusably criminal, but
Britain deies progress and humanity
and does that by right Of might, which
would cause the humiliation of a small
Ter and weaker nation.

ZILTS ~. INDIANS.

An interesting comparison might he
made between the savages of South
Africa and those of western North
| America. 1t has been said so frequent
ly that the negro, in a state OF barbar-
ism, is but a degree above the lower
animals, that one interestedly makes
investigation. The result is most IA
vorable to the negro. In Zululand the
swarthy and willy savages have been
found to ever possess the highest order
of courage, usually supposed to exist
only among civilized peoples.
The Zulus never hesitated to attack
the British on the open plains, although
armed only with assegais, while the
British possessed breech loading rifles
Of the best approved style, and unlimit-
ed quantities of ammunition. In this
respect the Zulus are the equals of our
Indians.
Moreover, the Zulus have peculiar
tactics in battle which are most ingen-
ious and effective. There is more sys-
tenn in their conduct of a battle than
our Indians possess. The latter's dis
tinguishing feature in conflict is the
marked individuality of each warrior,
who, in his own fashion, is a captain.
The Zulus, though not schooled, have a
system Of massing their forces to charge
or support a given point that is admir-
able because of its approaching the
most approved methods of civilized war
fare. Their own innate military talent
has suggested these movements. In
this respect the Zulus are slightly SUI
perior to our Indians.
Another remarkable point in the
Zulus is that they have a complete sys-
TEN of government, with a general
head and the subdivisions of authority.
They have also n regular system of
CONSUMPTION, and their armies are di-
vided into regiments of married or I'M
married men, each distinguished by
their mode of wearing the hair. In the
state and the military the Zulus are
vastly superior TO our Indians.
1t must be borne in mind that the
Zulus have not been taught the ways
of civilization although they have
scientific and stalesmanlike methods.
They accomplished these things intui-
lively. On the other hand our Indians
haven't the intuition or imitation to
either develop skilled methods or apply
those of the white men with whom they
constantly come in contact, In mat
ters of government and warfare they
have improved but little over the saw
ages whom Columbus found arrayed on
the shores of the new world. The
arrow and the club have given way to
the rifle and the knife. Their mode OF
living has not changed except as our
government has made paupers of them.
Having minds they use them not for
progress; having perception it answers
only for low cunning. In most respects
they are rs barbarous as were their an
cestors three hundred years ago.
Had the Zulus n 1.-THE Of the oppor-
tunities for improvement possessed by
the Indians they would be to-day a civ
ilized and powerful people. That they
will progress thenceforward is most
reasonable of belief They are now
under the subsection OF British author
ity and much depends Oh the use or
abuse Of that power.

THE Spanish senate has passed the bill
for the abolition of slavery in Cuba by
the overwhelming vote of 1874 to IA.
Strange as it may seem, the Cuban sem
ators voted with the minority. This
is not strange, rs these senator's are not
representative men Of Cuba, but slave
holders. 1t is well, however, that the
Spaniards are determined to blot the
curse of slavery from their government.

THE mussulmans of Turkey are for
ever claiming public attention. They
are either fighting and committing dep
relations or starving. The latter fate
now appears to be the portion of sever
al thousands of them. Starvation is a
very bad thing in itself. but when ii

key, perhaps it isn't SO very bad, after

Carriages bearing the bride and groom,

filled with queries as to how the news Ind
got out. The sister Of the bride took A
