By far-sighted responsible people on both sides of the sea such an agi- tation is sincerely to be deplored, tor it must cause ill-feeling and hatred where amity and goed-will should exist.

But beneath this outcry against in-- { dividual incompetency and lack of brains on the part of army officers which since the war began has_ been constantly causing the loss of detach- ments and positions, aud especially during the Jast fortnight, there is an underlying and sometimes expressed determination that England’s army must not longer be officered by men whose claims to commissions rest al- most solely on birth or money. The premature self congratulations over the occupation of Bloemfontein has had a reaction somewhat similar to that which followed the first victories in Natal. As the Saturday Review says, “too soon did we congratulate our-- selves on the possession of Bloemfon- tein, and too little did we realize that the possession of such a capital does not imply much.” ERVOUS troubles are cured by Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which en- riches and purifies the blood.
