The Canadians from their posi- tion of vantage at the front will have an excellent opportunity to learn in the school of experience. We Goubt not that they will prove apt pupils,‘and those of them who will return will rank among the best soldiers in the world. One of the lessons taught by this ' war is the value of the British bayonet. | rad Gen. White’s men not had this | weapon or had the Boers been armed | with some insrtument for fighting at | close quarters Ladysmith would prob- bably have fallen on jan. 6th. Again at Paardeberg had the bayonet been in the hands of Cronje’s men instead of the British he might have cut his | way out and escaped. As it wds when it came to close quarters the Boers ' were simply helpless, and it is prob- | able that their surrender was hastened | DR. J. iy MURRAY by the dread of the “ cold steel” at the Queen Strezt eerer-eee end of the Canadians’ rifies. The utility of mounted men has also been established. In all the early operations o/ the war the need of such men for scouts was keenly felt, and it is even claimed that several of the dis- asters which befell the British forces might have been avoided had there been a proper force of mounted scouts. In Gen. French’s march to the relief of Kimberley and in the trapping of Cronje as of the turning movement of Mar. 7, the mounted infantry proved most efficient. It is evident that mounted soldiers will play an import- ant part in military operations of the future, and cur Minister of War at Ottawa should take careful note of this fact. There appears to be a general dis- appointment at the comparative harm- lessness of the big guns used in this war. The British losses have come chiefly from the accurate marksman- ship of the Boer riflemen. And if Boer reports be correct the large guns of the British, even when throwing the powertul lyddite have caused but little ioss of life. The big guns are useful in commanding a large area in intimi- dating the enemy and thus preventing them from entrenching or moving about and in knocking their fortifica- tions to pieces ; but when it comes to killing, which we suppose is the real object of war, it is the accurate rifle- men who are to be dreaded. ‘This principle was also well illustrated dur- ing the Spanish-American war. This is another fact that should occupy the attention of our military men, and the ability to shoot straight should be made one of the first qualifications for en- listment. The value of light portable artillery, especially in meeting such a mobile enemy as the Boers, has also received’ practical illustrations — SIR BARTLE FRERE’S PRO- PHECY AS TO THE TRANS- VAAL. In July, 1879, the late Sir Bartle Frere, who was High commissioner in South Africa from April, 1877, to August, 1880; placed on record the following prophecy: ‘Any attempt to give back or restore the Boer Repub- lic in the Transvaal must lead to anarchy and failure, and probably, at do distant period, to a vicious initia- tion of some South America Republic, in which.the more uneducafed and misguided Boers, dominated and led by better educated foreign adventur- ers—Gcrmas, Hollanders, Irish Home Rulers, and other European Repub- licans and Socialists—will become a pest to the whole of South Africa, and a most dangerous fulcrum to any European power bent on contesting our naval supremacy or in injuring us inthe colonies...... There is no re- sponsibility which has been already incurred ever since the English flag was planted in jthe Castle here. All our real difficulties have arisen, and still arise, from attempting to evade or snift this responsibility...... If you abdicate the soverign position, the ab- dication has always to be heavily paid for in both blood and treasure...... Your object is not conquest, but simply supremacy up to the Del- agoa Bay. This will have to be asserted some day, and the assertion will not become easier by de- lay. The trial of strength will be torced on'you,and neither justice hor humanity will be served by postponing the trial if we start with a good cause’ Sir Bartle Frere said he was content to ap- peal from the injustice of his contem- poraries to the ultimate verdict of his country, adding—‘It is quite possible that that verdict may not come in my time. All your history points to similar cases of men who have done their best accerding to their lights, and to whom justice was not done till long after they had passed away.’ Tortured by im Itching almost driven Insane. Instant Relief in Dr. A. ‘ve. Chase’s Ointment One of the most distressing sy:nptoms ima- ginable is the almost unbearable itching which is an accompaniment of Leucorrhea or whites. The nerves are irritated by the poisonous dis- charge, and the result is an itching which ¢s only rendered more excruciating by rubbing or scratching. Especially at night, when the body is warm, the patient is tormented beyond the powers of human endurance. Sleep or rest is out of the question. Nervousiress, irritability and des- pondency are a natural result. In these offices there are on the file thou- sands of letters from grateful women who have found in Dr. Chase's Ointment a quick and certain cure for this itching to which women are subject. During the expectant period many women suffer similar agony from itching of the parts, or itching piles, which are absolutely cured by Dr. Chase’s Ointment. The first application of this great discove of Dr. A. W.
