THEIR sTONEwALL FALLEN.
Tuesday morning rain,

The Stonewsll jackson of tie
Trsnsvssl republic is dead, and the
struggling Beers sre in deep sorrow.
Gen. Petrus Jseobus Joubert WIS
descended from the French Hue
uots who settled in South Africa nsny
years ago. He was noted for that
love of truth and right, land bigb sense
of honor which characterized those
people in whatever and they made
their homes. He 0aver failed to keep
his promise. even though it proved
to his disadvantage, and demanded
that others should keep theirs made
to him. He was straightforward in
all his affairs, and never concealed
his real intentions from his fellow
countrymen. His ability as scomman.
der, and his high character as a man
were a tower of strength to his coun.
try, and his death, following so close
" upon the defeat and capture OF
CroDje, will have very depressing,
il not disastrous, effect zpon TIE
cause he represented and which was
so dear to him. 1t may De that rs he
was so severely wounded some time
ago, and was compelled to leave sc.
tive service in the field, an6 only
planned snd directed, that his mantle
has fallen upon some Subordinate
sho may be able to take his place
and successfully lead the armies.
But that is doubtful. Lee and
jackson had many able 50 oordinates,
but none OF them could have taken
Lees place, and no one ever filed
Jsckson's. This may be the uufor-
tunate condition in which the Trans
vaal republic finds itself.
LIS asserted tkat Joubert was not
only great organizer and fighter,
but cozld see far into the
future the needs of his coun-
try, and provide for them. This
was illustrated prior to the present
war, when he organized the army Of
the South African Republic, dividing
the country into seventeen districts,
with each division under comman-
der. In this way every man became
trained soldier without leaving his
farm and had mis- equipments s.
hand; and it said that in twenty-foar
hours after the present war was de-
elared the BOer nation Was under
arms.
Besides it was due 70 Gen. Joubert
that the South African republics
succeeded in amassing the immens e
stores Of war munitions and provisions
which have supplied their armies dar.
ing the present conflict. 1t is al
ways difficult to supply the place OF
such q man in any country.
