which, however sincerely paid, will be regarded by many people as the reverse of flattering.

As for the truth of General Young's remarks, that is a very difficult matter to decide. When the over-gentle anthods of conducting the canipaiga in South Africa | had given place to more drastic steps, for a tinib it was not merely the sentimentalist 8 who feared that exusperation of the Boers might result. Events have disproved this. But at its sternest the Boer War could never, be described as fast, farious, and bloody. Comparel with the fighting in North Chine in 1900 (with which, of course, it is really bardly possible in any way to compare it). it was always leisurely. Compared with the campaign in Samar, it was exceedingly mild. How far the three campaigns have achieved A. S. WATSON & CO. permanent results remains to be seen.
