The speech of Lord Salisbury on the Transvaal situation has inspired the British world with confidence through his review of the amicable reinticnsiiip between Britain and the l‘cSE of the world. The British will have about 95,000 men in the field by Christmas. A spcond contingent is now on the way. About New Years it will be in order for the Boers to “trek” again. On Monday a fierce engagement- ‘is reported from a point about fifty miles south of Kimberley. The news is not:. such as brings any change in the situation but indicates the deter- mination of the Boers to make the best. of the opportunity before the British are able to concentrate their forces. It is supposed also that another battle took place at Ladysxnith on Thursday last as heavy firing was heard at Estcourt, Natal about day- break. Reports from the Transvaal contain such an element of uncertainty that it is difficult to separate the false from the true condition A re- port from Kimberley, however. tells of the bombardment of the place on Thursday last. From General Bul- ler’s message on Sunday to the War ‘Office at London, it is learned that Kimberlev, though bombarded on the 7th met with few losses.

One of these newspapers while Connnenting upon the statement of his Excellency, the Goverrr.,.r- General, that if the Cabinet of air Wi'frid Lanrier did not accede to the popular de- mand from the English-speaking pi’ovinces 1 he (the Governor) would dismiss them and ‘ call on eome one else who would permit British subjects in a British Colony to 2:0 to the defence of the British Empire, said “We are no longer Canadians . we are Rrifictmm a ...... uv uuu ‘lU'tKhU opnuou to greater an to stauncher our greater unanimity 0f impulsiveuess rather th loyalty.

When the Boer ultimatum became a fact and it was known fitrhting would begin in; South Africa the Bl'itbh Colonies quite? naturally became interested. The Aontreal .‘ Star then sent all over Canada to the Mayors of certain cities and towns asking them do your people approve of Canada sending men to b‘outh Africa. and received the reply “We do,” a statement which eventually proved to be the wish of the people. Then the Government stated it disapproved of “ the wish of the people.” The Government newspapers told us that in despatching a Contingent to the scene of hostilities Canada would make a new depar- ‘ ture, and take a new position in the councils ] of the nation. The Dominic.)n has had no 1 voice in makingr the war. and we were told I 1 that our statesmen would not be consulted l as to the terms of settlement. when the I bellicose and obstinate Boers are brought! 4 to their senses.

An Associated Press DeSpatch from Manila, Nov. 13, says Col. Hayes has captured Aguinaldo’s Secretary, and that Aguinaldo and his army are sur- ‘rounded. It also adds that the recent encounters were too one-sided to be called fights, also that the insurgents are sufiering more from disease than the Americans. owing to poor food, lack of medicine and filthy hospitals. , g!) a Though we may learn of the arri- val of the British tr00ps from day to " day we are kept in dense ignorance as to their movements after landing. A Special cable despatch from London to the Mail and Empire says, â€"“Reg-l iment after regiment lands and vansI ishes up the countrv. The men do not know their destination and the officers have the vaguest idea of, where they are going. The other ‘night a naval brigade was slipped ashore. Almost instantly after land- ing the brigade disappeared. as if it had never existed.” Little is known of the plans of the British. but in the face of such ignorance the “great expectations” of the British loving 1 people will soon be realized. 1 ,1) H V_ V. ,vvn tAtIlU‘lb naturally shocked every C: any newspzqmrs ha ve read siding: 0n technicalitieS, a (1‘ growing Erench Canadian- w v â€"-v AAIIIC chx' and against this e Lamier Goverumen the people can be ob L tue UJuSel‘V zuixe nun rawa, October :30.
