The noers, and whnt They Want.


A correspondent asks what the Trans.
vaal is, what its inhabitants. the Boers,
have done. and what the English have
done, and why they want TO hight about
it. Without entering at this time into
minor details Of difference or the later
incidents that have pushed exaspera-
tion to hostility wewill name the broad
er features of the controversy. The
Transvaal is n region that includes all
the country 10 the north OF the Naal
River land hence tho name rs far as
the Limpopo (or Crocodile) River, and
embraces both sides of the Quathlafnba
Mountains. IL lies between latitude
twenty-five degrees fifteen minutes and
twenty. eight degrees forty minutes
south, and longitude twenty-six degrees
to thirty-two degrees fifteen minutes
east Its area is about one hundred
and fifteen thousand square miles; and
its population is estimated at three hum
dred thousand, Of whom about one tenth
are whites.
Now, certain Dutch Beers who lived
in Cape Colony and Natal became dis
satisfied with British rule. They did
not take kindly to change which 10
the old Hol!anders of Manhattan made
so little difference. Like the people
of the Orange Free State they thought
they would like a government of their
own. The Scotch were consoled for
the merging of their nationality by the
consideration that Scottish dynasty
was seated ON the British throne; and
it was long ago pointed out to Dutch
colonists whose country was ceded to
England that the circumstances of a
Dutch Prince having as ended the En-
glish throne should reconcile them
selves in a like manner. But the
Beers failed TO see the matter in this
light; such comfort they thought
might have been very we'll for CON
temporancous enjoyment But was OF lit
tie worth merely as a reminiseence.
Thus il was that in 1870 these dissat-
isfed Beers marched, like so many
modern Hebrews, out of the land Of
their masters and set up a Republic for
themselves on the further side OF the
Yaal They deemed this to be free
territory, and thought that at least they
would only have TO contest their footing
( with savages. For long time they
] cherished hopes that Great Britain
( would allow them 20 enjoy their indie
! pendehoe in peace. But for some
! special reasons, apart from her custom
airy lust for territory, Great Britain
| began to feel otherwise disposed. One
/ plausible reason given out for interfer-
4 enee was the fear OF general war be-
/ tween the natives of Africa and the
European colonists and, at last, in
/ 1S47, the Transyaal was formally an
nexed to the Cape Colony.
Such, in brief, is an outline of the
events that have led to the present war.
England wants the Transyaal, like its
neighbors Natal and Cape Colony, 70
be added to the list Oi Imperial posses
sions, and asserts claim to the soil
prior to the Boer occupation; and the
Beers want their independence. We
have said enough TO indicate alike The
validity of their claim to this indepen-
dence and also. unfortunately, theU
slender chance of forcibly maintaining
