Singular Condolences Which Unite The

Sonqnesfs Ovor Grcnt Territoriea
nnd SmbJu9ated Ncishborins
Tribes without Number.

In the island OF st. Helena, where the
white Napoleon ended his days a pris-
oner TO the English, q black Napoleon
as living now also prisoner J., is n
singular chapter OF condolences which
seems to unite the fortunes OF the house
or Bonnparte and the house Of Chaka.
Sarly in the century, when Napoleon
was oVerrunning Europe with his ar
mics and dazzling the minds of men
with his genius, an English slilor was
wrecked on the African coast and wan
dered into Zululand
Tie was taken before the young chief,
Chaka, and to him he told of the Won
derful outside world. OF which the chief
had heard rumors, and as all the world
was then filled with the name of Ma
poleon, he told Of the rise of the Cor
sloan and how he had conquered ma
Aons and built up for himself a great
empire. The story OF Napoleon cap
tured the fancy OF Chaka. and he re-
solved to be an African Napoleon.
