Tho eritisl disaster at ,.aaysm,,i,.

Tho entire civilized world was
startled by the news brought by the
telegraph, Tuesday, Of the disaster to
the British forces at Ladysmith. Two
regiments Of British soldiers and one
mountain battery, which had been de-
ployed some distance from the main
command in movement against the
attacking Beers, were surrounded by u
large body Of the latter and compelled
to surrender in ordor to avoid annihila-
tion. General White, the British COM
mander, in his official dispatch to tho
War Office in London, assumes the
entire responsibility for the movement
that resulted so disastrously, admitting
that the position to which he sent the
large detachment proved to be unten-
able, instead of the secure base Of
operations he had presumed it to be.
Naturally, the news OF such set
back caused Consideration in official
circles in London, and great excitement
throughout the United Kingdom. The
effect, however, it is generally con-
ceded, will only be to incite the British
War Office to renewed efforts fer the
sternest prosecution of the war. Re-
Inducements are now on the way to
the scene of battle, and upon their
arrival the campaign will he forwarded
with deadly vigor and earuestness.
The question of great interest is the
probable fate of the British forces now
in South Africa, pending the arrival Of
the reinfoi cemants. Gen. Whites posi-,
tion is decidedly Erecarious, with his
force weakened by the capture of a
large division of his troops, including
two fine and experienced egiments,
and battery of excellont guns which
the Beers will turn upon their enemies.
The capture OF Ladysmith, and also of
Kimberley, may be effected before the
arrivals of the reinforcemenls which
Gen. Sir Redvers Butler. the English
COMMUNICATIVE chief, who has already
reached South Africa, will lead to the
attack upon the Beers.
But in the end there can be but one
tesult-the triumph of tho British
arms. owing to superior numbers and
resources. The present successes of the
Beers will but retard that outcome, not
turn it aside.

War TO the Knife.

War to the knife is now the motto
of the Union Republican faction in
Delaware. Having offered the clive
branch of peace to the Regulars, cnly
to have it contemptuousy rejected, the
Union leaders are determined to con-
tinue the fight on factional lines. Here
is the ultimatum, as editorially voiced
by the chief organ of the Union faction,
the Union Republican of Georgetown !:
This is the attitude of those who
have the recognition of the National
Administration, This position pre-
cludes any sort of union except by
towards and knayes. The issue is
squarely joined Tho question is, are
we to have republican form Of gov
ernment in the Republican party of
Delaware to be asce tained Ey majority
rule. Upon this issue, close up the
ranks, face the situation brayely. Hav-
ing done everything that duty ard
patriotism demands let ever true Unicn
Republican stand fast--let every
coward, and time server run.
This means that the dependence of
the Union Republicans in the campaign
of next year will be upon an alliance
with corrupt Democrats. 1t should be
the chief concern CT the managers of
the Democratic campaign 10 see that
such rascally alliance proves in
effective.

The Mckinley treaty with the Sultan
Of Sulu, by which the latter is guaran-
teed the right to hold slaves and
granted monthly allowance for the
support CT his harem of several hun
dred wives is disgrace to the country,
and the administration has finally
learned that the people are very indig-
nant over the matter. They cannot
reconcile themselves to q treaty that
condones the twin evils of slavery and
polygamy, which are prohibited by
fundamental and statute law in the
United Stttes. Now the attempt is
being made from Washington to prove
that the treaty does not permit the
Sultan to continue slavery and
polygamy on his island, and that the
stories that it does SO are Democratic
forgeries. The denial, however, comes
too late. The terms of the treaty have
been public property for weeks, and if
there was no truth in the provisions
relating to slavery and polygamy the
deuial would have been made as soon
as the stateinent appeared.
