DUTCH PEACE MOVEMENT.
Deputation From Cape Colony to Visit
England Shortly.
CAPE Town, March 9.-A great move.
ment is i'll progress among the Cape
Dutch to obtain settlement of the
South African question consistent with
the maintenance Of the independence of
the republics It is doubtless argued
that the Dutch, having remained loyal,
are entitled to hearing at the settle
ment. The argument would have more
force If the Dutch had not risen in every
district where there was reasonable
chance Of success and 1t is certain that
the whole British community and the
actively loyal Dutch are opposed to any
settlement short Of annexation.
A proposal has been made by a depu-
tation of the Dutch party to visit Eng
land shortly in the interest Of peace.

A GREAT TRUTH.

All organized living things whether be-
longing to the animal or vegetable king
dom contain within themselves the germs
of death and decay.
Germs of disease are often generated
within the human system through imper-
feet digestion of food producing various
poisons which scientists have denoninated
biONafHeS. A stomach weakened by abuse,
gorged with over eating OF over burdened
with hot bread too rich or greasy foods or
those too highly seasoned, becomes weak
ened and fails TO thoroughly digest the
food A heavy, sodden mass is accumu-
lated in the stomach to ferment as the first
step in its decay giving off foul gasses to
distend the stomach, and poison the blood,
until il becomes thin, weak and lacking in
the red CorpusCles 50 necessary to perfect
health
The over distended stomach presses upon
the heart and the latter organ is also dis
turbed through sympathy, the same system
of nerves being distributed to both organs
Thus palpitation and irregular action of the
heart with its attendant shortness Of breath
result and in time. disease of the heart
itself is established
The gases and other poisons generated
from undigested, fermenting and decay
ing food in the stomach becloud the
BRAIN causing headaches, and pain in the
eyes.
Being absorbed into the blood these poi
sons reach every part and organ of the sys-
tenn. The kidneys are thereby poisoned,
causing Brights disease and diabetes. Fill
tering through the skin, troublesome skin
diseases often show themselves.
Every organ and every nerve, depending
as they do for their nourishment and
renewal upon the stomach, weak digestion
shows itself not alone in loss of appetite
and flesh, but also in nervousness, debility,
bad complexion and many other derange-
ments.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
tones and regulates the stomach stimu-
lates the digestive juices invigorates the
torpid liver promotes intestinal strength
clears bilious poisons and diseased germs
out of the circulation; gives the blood
making glands keen assimilative power,
and furnishes Nature with the fresh, abund-
ant nutrition out of which she manufac-
lures firm flesh, strong muscles, clear skin,
healthy lung tissue and nerve fiber, and
gives sound, enduring, active energy to the
whole system.

this afternoon were considering an alter
native proposition. This contemplated.
the putting out of comm. ssion of several
of the big sh ps attached to Admiral
landing squadron. The big ships carry
on an average more than 300 men each.
There is a growing belief that it will
be necessary to organize another expedi-
t!onary force at Tien Tsin TO maintain
the communications of Admiral Sey-
mour's column which, with limited sup
plies will be in severed need very short
ly unless ii can force it's way through to
Pekin. The Monacry arrived this af-
ternoon at Tien rs and If there were
an emergency pushing on up the river
she could have reached Tien Tsn before
dark. The vessels could easily carry 500
men in addition to her crew.
Should 1t be decided to send troops fr IN
Manila to China there are now avaIab e
at Manila the big transports Logan and
Warren with a capacity Of about 5000
troops, the Sherman is due at Manila
July /, and the Pennsylvania and Indiana
and several other smaller craft are avail
able.
\mong the for" en- representatives in
Washington the information that the
United States probably would augment it's
military force in China was received with
very general satisfaction, espec' ally in
English and Japanese circles. Mr.. Nab
ishima, the Japanese charge. pointed out
that the forwarding Of a large mil tary
force by any one Of the European pow
ers would excite suspicion and opposi-
ton, whereas such a course by the Unit
ed States was absolutely above suspicion
While no joint request had been made on
this government t. act yet ye said the
other powers would speedily acqu 'esce in
the action and applaud its disinterest ed
! ness.
The Chinese Minister showed the deep
est interest in the course of the United
States relative to the dispatch of troops,
but in tn absence of advices from his
rnment indicating the policy on sucr
movements he did not wish TO discuss
The effect Of the action.
The Japanese legation today received a
dispatch from the foreign office dated at
Toxic on Wednesday and wing inform
tion from Pekin up to the day before 1t
states that Prince Tuan, one Of the en-
perOr's faVortes and father Of the Chin
ese crown prince, has not been appoint ed
at the head Of the Tsung VI Lamen nor
given any official position. report IS
current in Japan, and IS repeated as such
| hy the authorities, that Prince Twan is
/ the real head Of the boxers. The dis
patch further says that all the diplomat
/ iC Representatives at Pekin agree that the
/ Chinese government is quite incapable OF
/ restoring order and ma ntainng peace so
! they have sent orders to their respective
admira's TO bring forces for the pro &c
/ tion Of the several legations.
The dispatch left Pekin before the re-
ported killing Of the Japanese chancellor
The Toxic officials express the belief
that the upr sing I'm China was originally
and- Christian. but now has taken the
larger form Of anti-foreign.

THE BRITISH ADVANCE.

The movement of General Roberts
with his army Of SO, 1000 to turn the
flank of the Beers and get in their rear
will surprise no one who has given at
tention to the African war, and other
wars before. The Messenger has sew
eral times expressed confidence that
this would be done, finally, and be-
cause Roberts is a general, has a large
army of fighters, with great
back of him, and the plan is feasible.
Now, after perhaps four or five months
of war for the first time the British
are already within the territory of the
Beers. No battle yet, but a decided
tactical advantage has been gained. II
a battle comes the British ought to
whip. Numerically they have a great
advantage. The southern soldiers used
to clean up twice their numbers, some
times three times their numbers, and
with no broken country like that of
the Beers. !
The news of the rapid march of Gen
eral French upon Kimberley and re-
lieving it will excite great hope and
enthusiasm in Great Britain. \ gen
eral movement of the British viii
soon follow, We suppose. That the
Beers will continue TO oppose the
British here and there we may believe
Whether they will deliver battle in tn
open against heavy odds is uncertain
