About three years ago the warlike
and intelligent A!etabeles, of Mashona-

listening to the coupsels of their king,
the wise Lobcngula, the trouble was
warded eff. But the grumblings of the
fighting men continued. They partial
ly believed Lobengula's explanation
of the course he was pursuing. He
had told them that his ambassadors to
England said that for every drop of
: English blood shed fresh; English
man would spring into being. The
medicine men said: Let us kill these
here and sec if what they say will hap
pen,"' but Lobengula's counsels pre-
vailed. The rcstive feeling finally
grew beyond that sable monarch's con-
troll and now the cable brings news
that the young men have risen and are

the ioreiCn iniiitcry system il that
