THE Beers.

The English have found in the Beers of
the Transvaal worthy descendants of the
sturdy burghers who followed the Prince
of Orange in the heroic struggle between
the Netherlands and Spain. These Dutch
Africans may be but half.civilized, but
assuredly they have a suficiency of the
indomitable spirit of their ancestors. The
British forces have had no child's play
with the half-armed and undiscipliued
farmers, but the latter have exhibited a
dauntless bravery which recalls the colonial
times of our own republic. Here again
the farmers are embattled," and here
again they have brought the regulars to a
halt, and even repulsed them more than
once. The indications are that England
viii have long and arduous campaign in
the Transvaal, and that no matter what
force she puts in the field she viii find it
impossible TO subdue people who are
fighting for independence with passion
and self.deyotion which claims the sympa-
thy of all who carry Anglo-Saxon blood in
their veins.

THE STORM HERE AND ELSEWHERE

Though Sacramento has borne a bad
reputation ever since 1862, it is fact de-
handing notice that during the whole of
that period she has been free from direct
damage by floods. Two or three times she
has sustained some injury through the &C
cumulation of drainage inside of the
levees, but this is the result of community
stupidity, and not consequence of natural
phenomena. During the late rain.storm
comparatively very little damage was done
in any part of this city, but in San Fran
cisco, Napa, Santa Cruz and other places
which have no food legends to handicap
them, the injury has been great and wide
spread. In San Francisco sewers burst,
cellars and Easements were flooded, and
despite her steep grades. or because of
them, that city suffered ten times as much
as Sacramento. In view of these facts it
is in order for those who have been In the
habit of joking about our liability to i'm
mersion here, to review their ideas on the
subject, and to transfer their iests where
they are better merited.
