London, March ia parliamentary

LoHuOn, MaFcn 10.-A parliamentary
paper containing the kilograms sent to
the British government by the presi-
dents of the South African republic and
4 the Orange Free State, and Great
Britain's reply thereto, was issued to-
day. 1t contains, first, the telegram
sent by the two presidents to the
Marquis of Salisbury, as follows:
'Bloemfontein, March 5.-The blood
and the tears of thousands who have
suffered by this war and the prospect
of all moral and economic ruin where
with South Africa is now threatened,
make it necessary for both belligerents
to ask themselves dispassionately and
in the sight of the triune God for what
are they fighting, and whether the aim
of each justifies all this appalling mis-
cry and devastation.
With this object, and in view of the
assertions of various British statesmen
to the effect that this war was begun
and is being carried on with the set
purpose of undermining her majesty's
authority in South Africa and of setting
up an administration over all of South
Africa Independent of her majesty
government, we consider it our duty
to solemnly declare that this war was
undertaken solely az defensive meas
ure to maintain the threatened indepen-
dence of the South African republic,
and is only continued in order to secure
and maintain the incontestable indie
pendence of both republics as sovereign
international states, and to obtain the
assurance that those of her majesty
subjects who have taken part with us
in this war shall suffer no harm what
ever in person or property.
ION these conditions, but on these
conditions alone, are we now, as in the
past, DESTROYS of seeing peace re-estab-
lished in South Africa, While if her ma
jesty's government is determined to
destroy the independence of the repub-
lies there is nothing left to US and to
our people but to persevere to the end
in the. course already begun.
In spite of the overwhelming pre-
eminence of the British empire, we are
confident that God, who lighted the un-
extinguishable fire of love of freedom
in the hearts of ourselves and of our
belief that he will not forsake US and
that he will accomplish his work in us
and in our descendants. We hesitate
to make this declaration earlier to your
