The relations of the English with the Dutch in South Africa are touched upon in an article in St. Nicholas by Klyda 11. Steege. The Cape settlement re­ mained in possession of the Dutch until 1795, when, the French révolu- tionists occupying Holland, the colon- ists hoisted a Bag of independence, and appealed) to Great Britain for protec­ tion. The British accordingly took pos- session in the name of the prince of Orange, who was at that time a refu­ gee in London. You must freshen your memory of European history of that period, in case you have forgotten, it» to understand how matters stood be­ tween. the different countries. Then you will see how it was that when peace was restored after the Napoleonic wars, and Holland had been« annexed by France, the latter country ceded to England the “Batavian Republic,” which included, among other territory, the Cape Colony. Under English rule matters improved for the colonists, and the administra­ tion was, on the whole, satisfactory, until the government ordered the slaves to be freed. The Boers, indignant at the loss of “property,” for which they did not consider themselves sufficient­ ly compensated, resolved to go beyond the reach of law and government, and. what you hear spoken of as the “great trek” took place in the year 1835. Trek comes from the Dutch verb trekken, to draw or drag, and this journey was so termed because the people who left the colony to seek another home far­ ther inland traveled) in huge ox-carts or wagons. The first 200 who left wandered) on until they came to a country far from the sea, where, after many fights with thé Matabele tribes, they, held their own sufficiently to found the Orange Free State. The second trekking party, among whom was the present President Kru­ ger, then ten years of age, went over into the colony of Natal. There they failed in finding a resting-place, be­ cause they attempted to take land al­ ready in British possession. They, too, had their struggles with natives and many hardships to encounter, but finally they ciossed the Vaal river, and soon after all the different settlers united themselves, for mutual protec­ tion, into a republic, under a man named Pretorius as president, and with Paul Kruger as commandant general of the army. It was not long before they found themselves unable to prevent trouble with the natives, and they appealed to England for protection. They were also heavily burdened with a debt, whi?h they saw no chance of repaying. So Great Britain took them in charge, kept off the natives, and1 paid their* debts, and at last, at the request of many of the settlert*, the country was declared to be the possession of the British empire. It prcbably would not interest you to hear all the political changes and discussions which have taken place in the country. It is enough to say that the Boers were not satisfied to be un­ der English administration, and finally rebelled against it, with the result that, after a short war, their country was given back to them on certain condi­ tions. These conditions not having been adhered to as England expected, the present war broke out. it will surprise you to experience th’ benefit obtained bv using the dainty and famous little pills known as DeWitt’s Little Early Risers.
