 It is stated on reliable authority that several of the Boer commandoS have received the burgher delegates in an amicable spirit and that Commandant Boyers is willing to abide by the deci- sion of the Transyaal government. Tho outlook for peace is encouraging, ale though there is some opposition among General Delarey's men.
 The wife of General Lucas Meyer, the commander of the Orange River State forces, who is in this country has received cable message from her husband saying that peace in South An rica is probable.

Great Britain had had a great and serious war, but, admitting that misery and suffering had been caused, it must be recognized that the power, prestige, influence and magic effect of our great empire are more potent, more efficient and more admirable than ever before.
