A VOICE Fl0.\\ SOUTII AFIUCA.
Under the above caption Hrs. p
Latvia, a sister of Premier Schreiner of =
Caps Colony, addresses a stirring
l
message to the Christian people of  ' ~
Great Britain. Mrs. Lewis is of Dutch l 1 . _  
blood, and for that reavon might he
expected to have warm sympathies to-
ward the pa:ip`c of the Dutch Repub-
Atrica and her sense oi justice and
right have led her to take strong
ground on the British side. The letter
is too long for our short columns but
we quote an extract or two showing
its spirit:
-~lt is because I leer that a consider
able section ot the Christian world ot
Ragland. because oi its tender sympa-
thy with _ present suEering and its
yearning attera present peace. is be-
ing led by wriuri who have appealed
only to these sentiments into sn attitude
with regard to this war which is out el
harmony with the Divine purpcse
at this time, that l am driven io write
tate appeal.
lu thenameot the Lo.d Jesus. and
lor His dear sake,l appeal to the Chris-
tian people ct England to suspend the
judgment they hive been led to form t
nntheqnestion ot the war in which
Gsnat Britain is now engaged. ll

hosts, il ever there was a 'war tor truth

oppression and wrong. lor the deliver#
eoeeota people poweiltas to deliver
themselves. whose wrongs have cried
np to heaven until the Lord has eoine
denn todelvmthein, this is the war.

“For near 200 years the progesitsrs

as lsr as they had power to do so,
robbed of all rights belonging to them

"Under Traesvaal rule a cesseless

and individual. have been perpetrated
upon the helpless natives both within

whom it has seemed till now there was
no possible deliverance. Poweiless to

to look to tor suocour, the mute appeal
ot their helpless sufferings has gone up
before God. the God ol eternal jnstiee.
