The fan Of Pretoria, with hardly a
blow, seems pretty good evidence that
the Beers are tired of fighting. IL Is
true that there is talk OF a desperate
stand In the Lydenburg mountains, but
II such a stand Is Contemplated &c Is
hard TO Sc why IL should not have been
made az the fortified capital of tle
Transyaal, which Is a natural citadel
strengthened by five years OF lavish eX-
penditure Of money and labor. Ger
talnly Pretoria Is Infinitely stronger
than Ladysmuh. Kimberley or Mafe-
king, and II the Beers had chosen to
stand a siege there, with proper prep
arati0ns In the way Of accommodating
stores OF provisions and ammunition,
there Is no reason why they should not
have held out for a year against the
whole British army. But from the
standpoint Of humanity II Is better as
Il Is.
