speech, which was a lengthy recapituia-

GLIDING the action taken in connection
with Venezuela, in regard to which it
says;
Il regret that the constant complaints
which my government found it necessary
to address to the government Of Vene-
zuela in regard to unjustficable and ar
bitrary acts against British subjects and
property during the last two years have
beeen persistently disregarded and that
it has become necessary for my govern
nent, acting in concert with that OF His
Imperial Majesty, the German Emperor.
which has also serious cause for COM
plant against Venezuela to insist upon
measures of redress.
SOUTH AFRICA.
The sreech refers to the conclusion of
the Sou,h African war and adds:
There seems to be every reason to
hope that material prosperity greater
than any the Transvaal and Orange
River colonies have yet experienced may
visit these regions and that all sections
Of the population may live together in
friendship for each other and loyalty to
the Crown.
