SOMETHING ABOUT THE BATTLE AND ITS RESULTS. MAJUBA HILL DISASTER proclamation i Smith Ame; f3} was then Adminis- issqegd by the Pro- colonies afié Finally, We n_ to 3:1 and was ratified by the Volksraad, and which contained the following pro- visions :â€"So far as domestic affairs were concerned, self-government was entirely restored to the Transvaal, but in all matters of foreign affairs or for- eign policy,Great Britain had the right of control as the suzerain power. After negotiations extending over several months, on October 26th, 1881, a convention was entered into between Great Britain and the Republic, which After the disastrous affair at Majuba Hill, and the death of Sir George Col- ley, Sir Evelyn \Vood, who had sucâ€" ceeded Sir George in the command, concluded an armistice with the tri- umphant Boers. The result of this ar- mistice was that peace was signed be- tween Great Britain and the Dutch Re- public on March let. 1881. “Upon trying to rise I was taken prisoner and led away. On the hill I found the body of General Colley shot through the head. I also saw Captain Singleton, of the 92nd, severely wound- ed; Lieutenant Hamilton, 92nd, slight.- ly; Dr. Lanton, severely; Captains Morris, severely; and Millar, also severely. Captain Maude was killed; Lieutenant Macdonald, of the 92nd, was also a prisoner. What others were killed, wounded, or taken pris- oners, I cannot, as yet, say, but fear that our loss, bOth in officers and men, is very severe. Many are still miss- ing, having hid themselves in the brushwood on the hills till the dark- ness fell.” . a fight for life. At this moment I was knocked down by the rush and trampl- ed on, and when I came to my senses the Boers were firing over me at the retreating troops, who were moving down the hill. “At last the Boers, who had gathered near the edge of the SIOpe, made a tre- mendous rush at a point beyond that at which they had been before atta<~k~ ing, and where the numbers of the de- fenders were comparatively small. They burst through the ranks, poured in over the edge of the basin, and OUR POSITION WAS LOST. “The main line of each division had their flank turned, and being taken in reverse made arush along the plateau to endeavour to rally, but it was use- less. NVith fierce shouts and a storm of bullets, the Boers poured in. There was awild rush, with the Boers close behind, while the roar of fire, the whistling of bullets, the yells of the enemy, made up a din which seemed infernal. All around m.-n were falling; therewas no resistance, no haltâ€"it was nets to repel the assailants. The Boers with shouts of triumph swarmed up the sides of the hi11,‘and made several desperate attempts to carry the posi- tion with arush; each time, however, they were driven back with the bayo- net. After each charge the firing, whSCh nearly ceased during the melee, broke out with renewed violence, and the air above us seemed alive with bullets. The troops did their duty well and steadily, and, trying as was the occasion, fought with great coolness, encouraged by their officers. “This, however, Was not the case. The enemy had been, as we afterwards learned, very strongly reinforcing his fighting line in preparation for an as- sault; and shortly after one o’clock a terrific fire suddenly broke forth from the right lower slopes of the hill, the side on which the firing had all along been heaviest. A tremendous rush was simultaneously made by the enemy. Our advance Line was at once nearly all shot or driyen back upon our main posi- thou. This may be described as an? oblong basin on the top! of the bill. It: was about two hundred yards long byi fifty broad. Our whole force now lined! “We appeared perfectly safe. The Boers at night got between us and the camp, but we had three days’ pron- sions and could hold out until the re- inforcements came up. Our casualties were few and unimportant, and all were perfectly confident of the result. From eleven to twelve the enemy‘s fire oontmued as hot but as harmless as before; between twelve and one it slackened, and it seemed as if the Boers were drawing off. l l In his e “forts to suppress the insur- reCtion. march-i ng towards Pretoria Sir ‘xeorge Colley, with a force of 700 men, consiSting of some of the 59th, 69th and 92nd Regiments, and some of the Naval Brigade, started from the British camp at Mount Prospect, late on the night of Saturday, February 26th. Every man carried with him'provisions for three days and eighty rounds of ammunition. lhe eXpeotation seems to have been that after taking Majuba Hill they would have been able to hold it for two or three days, when rein- forcements, under General Sir Evelyn \Vood, were expected to arrive, and an assault would have been made on Laing's Nek. Majuba Hill was some three or four miles from the British camp at Mount Prospect. The Stand- ard correspondent thus descr bed the position. In addition to issuing this proclama- tion the Provisional Government sent letters°to President Brand, the Presi- dent oi the Orange River Dutch Free State; to Mr. Gordon Sprigg, Prime Minister of Cape Colony; and to Sir George Colley, the Lieutenant-Gover- nor, claiming the sympathy of the English Government. In their ap- ; pen! to Sir George Colley they re- peatedly spoke of their respect for the jQueen and for the people of‘England, §To Mr. Sprigg they saithâ€"1 .013". .-.e ;I\"tf nvivnv‘a rkar fhfl imlifi- “We are fully aware that the politi- cal condition of the colony prevents any act which might be in opposition to its noble loyalty to her Majesty the Queen, but a moral assistance, and, perhaps, intervention with the Home Government will go a long way to prevent a mom winked war between two nations, which will create an ever- lasting hatred between the two white populations. \Ve trust that the pro- clamation will convince everybody of out earnest wish to coâ€"operate with the States and colonies of South Africa for all purposes of general welfare.” As zhere sketched, this is the history of the beginning of the dispute. Its sequel will be told later. BATTLE OF MAJUBA HILL. ASKING FOR SYMZPATHY. \Vhen 0119 won seen another for ful not to add it remember that in order to get them cashed they must be backed by deeds.

If the observer has given any thought to the subject at 1111 he has probably decided that the contor- tions are due to the sleeper's uncon- scious efforts to preserve his balance. Dr. Pardini says that balance has nothing to do with it. He declares that the nodding is pathologic; that it is nature's method of inducing sleep. in his treatment of nervous troubles. Dr. Pardini, of Turin, for instance, Claims that he has discovered that the best method of treating obstinate in- somnia is to make his patients imitate the drowsy noddings of a tired man while sitting in a chair.

In addition to this, Great Britain’s suzerainty was abandoned, and the British resident commissioner was replaced by a diplomatic agent. At the same time the new South Afri- can Republic also agreed to submitany treaty or engagement that they might enter into with any state or nation, with the exception of the Orange River Free State, or with any of the native tribes to the east or to the west of the Transvaal, to the British Government, the latter having the right to veto the treaty or treaties ifit so desired at any time within a period of six months after their conclusion.

For instance, at one time during a burglary, one of the offenders was caught, and the other escaped, though wounded. A detective argued that some one would. be at the trial to convey the earliest informa- tion to the escaped criminal, and so, stationing himself conveniently. he watched the faces in the court room. Finally he decided that one woman looked more anxious than the rest, and following her home, he found the oth- er burglar stretched on a couch with a bullet in his- leg. prlse. ” When did I say so ?" He had neglected to get the detec- tive’s promise. THE INGENUITY OF DETECTIVES. A much discussed case of quibbling with a c11m1nil once happened in Lon- don. Some scoundrels adVer tised an art loan and as a result many valuable paintings were sent to them which they quickly sold for their own bene- fit. About that time, a deteCLive hap- pened into the room of the man who was receiving the Stolen goods. As soon as he found that he was. discov- ered the man “peached” and offered to take the detective to the thieves. But after doing so, he found that he too was arlested. “I thought you were going to let me go free 2" said he, in much sur- son to steal in order to arrest him The man who knows that the object in View is not theft, is non demoxahzed by it, but the person who steals to swell is injured by the process.

The training of the French detective policemenâ€"as expert as any in the worldâ€"is very severe. Often, they voluntarily serve a. term in pri- son to get close to the life of. the con- vict; again they go to live among thieves in order to learn their ways. They seldom are seen at police head- quarters, and receive theirorders by letters, written in cipher, or by con- fidential messenger. The French de- tective mixes in society and his occu- D-ation is seldom known. In fact, two detectives may know each other per- sonally very well, and yet never find out that their occupations are identi- cal. la France, the details of a detec- tive’s work are never published, and? if often happens that persons who have ' been robbed soon find themselves P05- sessed of their valuables through the Should a Detective Decelvc a Cranialnal?_ A anestlon “'lth Two Sidesâ€"story of a Burglar.

Doubtless the Old :Sleu'ths and Sherlock Holmes' of im- iagination are accountable for agood deal of it, and yet there are more sub- ist'antial reasons.
