Great Britain ha begun the new year with a serious disturbance, thU time in the TraruvaiL ihe horn of the Dutch Boern. It ena to one who he hy resi dence and observation In Southern Africa become acquainted with the origin of the present trouble, that people in this : country are Ucnorant of and unacquainted wilh the fact In the case and the princi ple Involved In the quarrel. Th same dis pute ha been breaking out at Intervals for several year. It ha grown out of a continued dfmanl of the Itritish and other foreign resident'), on their own be half, for political privilege, including the right of uffragi. Thl the Boer have atoutly resisted, especially the demand for uffrage which they will not yield unless the sippllcanu are member of the in many cases, I an uusurmountable ob- stacle. The situation of those British. French and American forelj.wrs (for they are not all r.rl.ish) may be more clearly realized by n-akin; a local application cf Its conditions. And It must be borne In mind that these men hare been act ing as Individuals and not a repre sentatives of the cojntrl? to which they belong. To affirm that the British fore'gn office has been behind the Jamieson movement is an untruth. There are a vast number of foreigners In the Cnited States. 8-ippoM tliat congress or the various sta'es had made a rule to treat them diTcrvntly from American-born citizens a to taxation. Suppose that onerous taxes and license fees were rpe cially levied upen them, while the taxes and Imposts of American-born citizens were made as light as possible. Pup rote that they -were in every possible way discriminated against in a tyran nical and vexatious manner. Suppose that the foreigners engaged in mining. merchandising and other forms of labor ! werw made to provide the bulk of the ' national or state revenues and at the j same time were denied suffrage and1 representation. Would there Dot be a disturbance at once? Would they not j aura To make it still worse the British have ... -.,, . owned the Cape Colony fcr a century. 1 and they have colonized and civilized It. I The son and a-randsnfl of these eolo- t nlzer. who have settled and engaged ' peaceably In business enterprise In the J Boer territory outside Bri'ish line have I been treated not only as aliens by the : Boers but as enemies and subjected to 1 odious and unjust discriminations. In ' many places in the Transvaal country the English and other foreign settl-rs are in the majority, and pay by far Ihe greater part of the taxes which support the Boer government. They have demanded that ! the discriminations shall he iak-n away j and that they shall be treated by the j Boer government In the same r-.anner , as the Boers themselves. As this de-1 mand was refused and no redress was! offered them a small, body of them re- I solved to force their claims with arms j and Invaded the Boer territory, only to I bo surrounded by overwhelming numbers ' and driven back. It must be borne in mind that the ; British rnvernment In not settlniF nn nnv! new boundary line In the -loer territory i or making any claim. The dispute Is not between the British Cape Colony and the Transvaal governm.-nt, but tween the Utter and the immigrants who j have settled In the Transvaal. The act 1 of Jamieson and those who accomuanled , mm wa one that can claim no defense. , Technically it was wrong, -foolish and neaosirong. in reality it was what any , other body of men with Anglo-Saxon 1 blood In their veins would have done un der the same circumstances. MARTIAL LAW IN HAVANA. The new In our dispatches of Tuesday that martial law has been proclaimed in Havana. I a string indication that the i , , . , , I Spanish officials feel themselves in an extremity. Whatever may be the real designs of the Insurgents, their enemies evidently Intend to be fully prepared for the most desperate advance on their part, namely, the attack on Havana, and for an uprising on the part of '.heir sym pathizers In that city. The assertion of Gomes some time ago to the effect that the Cubans would either secure freedom or leave nothing but bare burned fields for their oppressors, furnishes one ex planation for the westward march by alow degrees Instead of an Immediate at-i tack on Havana near the beginning of the insurrection. If nothing better comes ! of the raid they will retreat with the I . j spoils of their forage Into the fastnesses , of forest and mountain, leaving an im- poveriahed country behind them. The rainy season will soon be coming on, when further military operations will be Impossible to the Spaniards, and mean while .the boldness and success of the Cuban raid will inspire the native of!merle"'; pa,t,?rn J hl' on le-dgn. He . . . .... . the island wilh new hopes, and attract fresh supplies of men, arms and stores. I Meanwhile Spain ! already ro far ex-! hausted will, her costly but unsuccessful' attempts to sulnluc the Cubans thai he I will be Illy prepared lo renew Ihe nnuggle glnl the undaunted ch-implons of miKin liberty ftr.-isi!ied for a more b-o;vu9 attack upon the Ppaniah roe than cur before.
