father made its famous entry into
Mashonaland in 1890 the raid sys-
tenn was in full swing A Matabele
raid consists in killing off every able
bodied male in a camp and in carrying off
all the women and cattle as booty. The
number of Mashonas, Makalakas or ma
tives of the other tribes subjugated by
the Matabele, who fall victims 10 the
system, is variously estimated by differ
ent travellers and residents of Mashona-
land. In a good season, perhaps, TO-
600 are killed. Matabele cruelty knows
absolutely no bounds.
A graphic picture of the horrors perpe-
trated in the raids was recently pub
lished in the form of a letter from the
Rev. Mr. Hartman, who was missionary
in Lobengula's country for three years
The impi usually surrounds the kraal to
be raided during the night. At the first
dawn of day the war cry is raised, and
the wretched inhabitants of the kraal--
men, and very often women and children
are butchered in cold blood with every
circumstance of cruelty. Sometimes a
large number of Mashonas of both sexes
are driven into their huts, which are then
fired, and the unfortunate occupants
burned alive.
Throughout the Zambesian provinces

very well understand the Indignation Of
Lobengula's young braves when their
sport was so rudely spoiled by Capt
Lendy and a few mounted burghers at
Victoria, on Sunday, July 8, last. On
that day the Matabele invaded few
streets of the town and butchered the
Makalaka and MashOna servants Of
the white settlers before the very eyes
Of their masters. Victoria was crowded
lection against the Matabele assegai and
battle AK. Capt. Lendy, late ofticer Of
the Royal Horse artillery, summoned
the leaders Of the Matbele impi into
the fort. He told them that he would
not permit them 10 slaughter the Ma
shonas, and gave them an hour in which
TO retire. The indunas were insolent and
informed Capt Lendy that the
business was none OF his. They came,
they said, TO kill their slaves, the
Mashonas, who had stolen the kings
cattle. Capt. Lendy thereupon offered to
try the thieves and punish them in his
magisterial capacity. This proposal was
rejected by Lobengula's officers, and the
interview was at an end. In about two
hours time, finding that the Matabele
had not withdrawn, he charged them, to
the number of 300, with thirty-eight
mounted burRhers white mem. The
Matabele opened fire, but were routed and
pursued for nine miles, losing two indunas
and about thirty men. No casualties
were sustained by the whites. Loben-
gula's forces, bent on revenge, are slowly
moving toward the white settlements.
The Bisop Of Derry, who was recently
In South Africa, describes Lobengula as
luxurious and sanguinary, but very
clever" Toward the white men he has
always borne himself in friendly maui

Mashonaland, the scene of the Matabele
invasion, is at the present moment prac-
tically in state Of war. King Loben-
gula, who till now has never had any
serious trouble with the whites. has
greatly increased his force of fighting
men, and has now about 7 900 warriors in
the field, with fresh Matabele regiments
still arriving, which may swell the actual
strength Of his army to fully 10000. With
this force it is expected that he will ven

he has not already assumed the offensive

country is almost deserted. save
where the white settlers are
in sufficient numbers TO warrant them in
risking a hostile meeting with the Mata-
belle. Sir Henry Loeb, the British com
missioner at Fort Victoria has made
every necessary preparation to repel the
Matabele attack. DR.. Jameson, the South
Africans administrator in Mashonaland
has taken the offensive. with a view TO
checking the advance Of the invaders
and a strong force has gone from Forts
Victoria and Charter to drive the Mata-
belle out OF the country. The Matabele
are reported 10 be eager for war and
news of an engagement may come at any
moment.
The struggle between Lobengula and
the British South African Company,
which has long been foreseen, arises from
the raids by which the various offshoots
of the Zulu race have, from time immemo-
rial, asserted their rule oyer the subject
tribes of South Africa, and trained the
younger warriors to the use Of the assegai

A Recent Herd-Times Story.
From the Journal of Finance. |

A man entered a pawnbroker's shop
in the Bowery, aud laying down a
twenty dollar bill asked if be could be
Accommodated with g dollar on it. The
pawnbroker was an excellent judge Of
money, and saw at once that the bill
was genuine. So he turned and said
to the stranger, showing the bill to-
ward him as he spoke, that he was in
no mood for nonsense. But the
stranger, showing the bill back, re-
Joined in earnest tones that he meant
business; that he couldn't get any con-
ductor on horse car to change the
bill; that be had already been put off
three cars; that his boots were awful
tight, and that unless he could get q
dollar on the bill be would be com.
PEELED to walk to the Battery. Well,
the pawnbroker couldn't but feel that
the stranger meant what he said. So
he took up the twenty dollar bill,
toyed with it few moments, and then
said to Kim: "Well, my friend, I'd
like to accommodate you, but owing to
the financial stringency I can only
give you IS cents"

Nova Transmigration Society Organ
ICED in Sumter.

General Buffers scheme for the de-
portation Of the negroes seems about to
be taken up by the negroes themselves.
The preachers of that race in this
part of the State have just held a meet
ing in Sumter to orga nize a society for
the purpose of secur ing homes for ne
groes Of this State wherever they can
find better cline.
The following circular letter explains
the object of the scheme and the cause
OF the organization:
ITO THE CoLoRED POPULATION.
"a Transmigration Association has
been organized in Sumter, S. c., for the
purpose Of bettering the condition Of
our race. We mean to prepare to 60 to
Africa or to any place on the face of the
globe. The condition of our people is
alarming. Many are unable to feed
and clothe themselves on account Of
the low wages which they receive for
their work. In consequence of this
fact they have appealed to their preach
ers to look for them a more congenial
field in which to labor for the necessa-
ries of life. For this cause a meeting
was called in the city of Sumter, S. c.,
Sept. 14th, and an organization effected
with the Rev. Isaac R. Miller as presi-
dent and VIM. D. Chappelle, of Colum-
bia, as corresponding secretary. All
lovers of the race are called to meet in
Sumter, S. c., Monday, the 25th inst,
to take further steps in this direction.

BY Women Writers.

The English women sent six hundred
books to be part of their exhibit at
Chicago. They are all by women
writer's and perhaps the most interest
ing are the old and rare Volumes. One
of these, written by Mary Astell, two
hundred years ago, is u somewhat bel.
licose Defense of the Female Sex. :"
The earliest of all the volumes is Dame
Juliana Berner's treatise OH "Hawking,
Hunting, and Cote Armour" entitled
"The Boke of St Albans." She also
wrote a "Treatyse of Fysshynge wyth
an Angle" 14s6). The manuscripts in
the collection are interesting. Every
one notices the great resemblance be-
tween the handwritings of George
Eliot Charlotte Dronte, and Fanny
Burney. Some Of the manuscript pages
OF "Robert Elsmere" are there. mostly
written on sheets Of notepaper size. A
valuable MSS. is one written in Erdu
by an Indian Begun, and another is
the first story written by an Indian
woman in English.-N. Y. Sun.
