, (Journal Special Service.)
PRETORIA. Jul5' 21. There is a serious
reaction from the optimism that prevailed
at the end of the war. There are now
evidences everywhere of the Boer deter
mination to continue their own national
ity. Tho immediate opening of Dutch
schools before the British have organised
a system of education Is advocated.
The Boers who surrendered In tho
course of the war and took service as
national scouts under the British are ob
jects of the bitterest hatred. Reports
ot beating, shooting ana boycotting them
are frequent. The Transvaal and Free
State colors are freely Wbrn, as are also
