McKenzie of the Natal Carbineers, the Otlicer con1ma`\nling.

While this has a grain of truth to account for its existence, it is nevertheless n. very mis- 'lt-i\"ditTg`§lfdi'Ei1TeTI'. “ T lTt2f’II1it=tn1r"" has never been matter of complaintiniicli less t of resistence by the Natives. It is only 1.( -a hut, while in the Transvnal they have to pay £2. besides an additional Ll. for every additional wifc. The way this idea got ab r on d . was this: the disaffected Natives who had for months been planing n rising which should sweep the white man out of the country, sprung the mine too soon and ruined their chances. One of our Magistrates on tour collecting IInt- tnx has occassion to rebuke some of them for appearing armed at his Court, and ns they were contumacious summoned them to appear and answer that charge. This they refused to do, and on small Police patrol of 14 men going out from here to bring in the accused, they wayln.id'theni with nssegais in tlic dusk and murdered a troo r and the Inspector in charge (Mr. geixnt, a friend of in i nc and a splendid fellow) barbarously niutilatiug their bodies, as they have done whenever our men have been lcft to their tender 'of liunnmity and by the bitter experience lble nieans to get there first as far as the longed fighting and running they were captured',’ tried by Courts Martial and condemned to be shot as murderers. Tlieu I)ow_uing Street stepped in and blocked the course of justice, until they saw by united protests coming from the Colonies all over the world that they must leave Colonial Murderers to be dealt with by Colonial laws and that no Colony loyal as it may be, CRB $D|&¥nt¢_.it‘lt¢rfer-_ ence from ignorant outsiders in matters which effect her very existence. And so they were shot. Now I would like to stty a word on sonic of the_yi_le_ slnnders that have been circulated with regard to the conduct of our Militia in the field, and the treatmen of Natives who wished to surrender or _ who wished to be taken prisoners. It has been said that the orders were that no prisoners should be taken nor quarter given. The very contrary was the case. At the same time anyone who knows anything of Nntive wars knows that they cannot in the nature ofthe thing be conducted on the lines of the Geneva Convention. When yon know that the enemy is bound by no such rules of your fallen comrades what your fate will be, you do not fail to use every possi- killing goes. That there was any muti- lation of the dead, or maltreatment of the wounded by our men is false. The only case was one of absolute necessity. The death of Meliluknzula ut the I-Iome Gorge was not believed by the Native rebels and he was reported to be alive in hiding. To 1 mercies. i That was the beginning.

When ‘they found il, it wus so offensive that the Scouts refused to it hack to Camp. So the officer ordered them to cut off the head mid carried it back and photograph- ed it. These photos were sent out to the rebels, and without doubt induced many to surrender sooner than they otherwise would have done. Another matter which has been ninde much of is the shooting of five prisoners by Royston's horse. This was said to have been done in cold blood; whereas the fact is, it was in the act of escaping from. their escort in such a rough country that they could not have been recaptured. We are all in hopes that the sorry busi- ness is about over and done with. You can imagine the result on social and busi- ness life in such a little Colony of having 4,000 niilitiamen kept away from their homes for nearly six mouths. How would it strike you in P. Ii, Island, with a population a little larger than ours? In addition to them we have had Soo men from the Transvaal and a couple of hund- red from Cape Colony. These are mostly returning now. We hadithree Militisi Field Batteries on t, five Rexer Quick Firers, and some Mnxims froin thc Cape. A Field search light was used very effec- tively. The campaign has been splendid train- ing for our uien, worth a hundred annual Camps. The Militia Reserves have been called out in several districts and proved effective. The Cadets though taking no part in the actual fighting were always ready. It has been most useful to me _done when they were WEEDS J. T Ccarucrn, li.

I intend in a future coinmunication to give this plant ex tended consideration. We hear much of Nature study and it seems that we nre becoming aware that beyond ourselves thc-rc is n fair sized world tlnit is at least worthy of notice. Iiorimerly knowlcd-ge worth having was .supposed to consist priricipally ofa number of various sounds to convey ideas. A knowledge of languages, very dead ones, was the criterion of scholarship. Most Educational systems throughout the world are yet bnsed on that idea which is ri heirloom of ages we are pleased to pall dark. Would it not lze more valuable knowledge to know and understand six objects in nature than to know the name of one object in six lan- guages.
