A sPECk OF WAR.

There is speck of war Ia SOuth Africa
considerably larger than mans hand,
and which, IL threatened events ensue
bids fair to assume immense proportions
Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain, the British Sec
rotary OF State for the colonies, has sent
to the president of the Boer republic n
protest couched in strong terms against
alleged violations of the London conven-.
ton by the Transvaal government, and Il
Berlin dispatch announces that Germany
is making preparations to send 5000
troops to South Africa in April. These
two announcements taken together mean
that there is strong likelihood of war be-
tween Great Britain and the Dutch re.
public and that Germany does not pro
pose to take only the part of spectator
in the conflict
The congratulatory telegram sent Pres
ident Krueger by Emperor William on
the occasion Of the capture of Jameson
and his raiders opened the eyes Of the
English people to the gravity of the sit.
uation, and the move of the German ruler
in proposing to sending an army to the
scene of expected disturbance has rather
tended to verify their worst fears. The
Beers have already had immense supplies
of arms and ammunition shipped to their
country and have, it is said, offered spec.
ial inducements to German settlers who
are fiocking into the country in numbers
that would indicate an expectation on
their part of being participants in the ey-
pected conflict.
The recent visit of the Dutch president
to the Orange Free State and his disre-
spectful illusions to Queen Victoria
along with the exultation with which he
alluded to killing of Fnglishmen in battle
by the Beers, all tend to show q situation
of affairs in the southern portion Of the
dark continent which are very much
strained, to say the least. The war,
sooner or later, must come, however,
and it is evident that the British govern
ment has everything to gain by prompt
action in the matter. The British neo-
pie have no love for the German emperor,
who appears to reciprocate their Ike
with equal cordiality. war between
Germany and England on the plains of
South Africa would test the boosted SUI
periority of the German army and show
whether man to man the German is super.
ior to the English soldier.

loving following of the National Repub-
lican- Grover Cleveland party. The de-
feat of the Democratic party in the COM
ing State election would be construed to
mean an abandonment by the people Of
Virginia OF the cause Of bmetallism. AS
matter of fact the people Of this State
were never more earnest in their u hhe
renee to bimetallism and never more de-
tcrmined and ready to fight for it's re-
establishment. In view of this the
nomination of Mr.. Ellyson would be a
farce. He would almost certainly be de-
in the columns of the gold standard
States to furnish a discouraging object
lesson to the advocates of the white metal
in other sections of the Union. There
was II time in Virginia when the man
who without conjunction robbed his
neighbor considered it dishonorable to
scratch his party ticket. That was Mr..
Ellyson's opportunity. Then the nomi-
nation meant the solid vote of the party;
the dumb driven political cattle took the
fodder that was offered by the bosses.
The party cloak is now in rags and the
party whip has lost it's cracker. Men are
now, as never before, following principles
and rejecting bosses. Mr.. Ellyson has
outlived his opportunity. The Roanoke
friends of Major Tyler would however, do

quo-ably easy in feeling, but unchanged
in price.
Pro. isions-Ofrerings of products were
quite liberal at the opening to day, enough
to cause recessions in prices ,,all around.
The hog market was steady, the fact that
it conveyed no particular strength hav-
ing an adverse effect.

Another Cuban expedition seems to be

with All important cargo of men and
ammunitions on board, which recently
started for Cuba, has not yet been heard
from, and it is believed Mt the hendquar-
ters OF the Cuban junta that the vessel
has broken down. From the number OF
disasters to sucn expeditions since the
commencemnet of the revolution it would
appear that the experience of the patriots
in this direction has been anything but
satisfactory. The fighting on the island
in the past three or four months has not
amounted to much, but as the contest
