Commandant P. J. Joubert issued to-day a circular to all field cornets cautioning them against any action tending to bring on a conflict with another power. He declares that not a single stranger who does not volunteer is to be coerced into bearing arms. Commandant Viljoen has given notice in the Volksraad that he will ask the Government if, in case of war, it is prepared to confiscate the property of inhabitants who take up arms against the Government. In the course of an interview after the session Commandant Viljoen said if war broke out military government would he established at Johannesburg, and all British subjects would be com- pelled to leave. CAPE TOWN. Aug. 25.—In the Cape House of Assembly to-day, anticipating a motion on the subject hy Sir Gordon Spriggs, former Premier, W. P. Schreiner, the President, volunteered an Fe:xplanatmn regarding the transit through Cape Colony of ammunition and rifles for the Orange ree State. Mr. Schreiner contended that, except in time of war, the prohibition of such transit would be a hreach of the customs convention. He laid upon the table papers confirming his state- ment as to the details of the war material so transmitted, and then added that if war should unhappily ensue, he would do his duty as an earnest and loyal subject of the Queen. Sir John Gordon Spriggs. having moved the adjournment of the House, Mr. Rose-Innes, for- mer leader of the opposition, asked whether the Governor of the colony, Sir Alfred Milner, has re- quested the Government to prohibit the transit. Mr. Schreiner replied in the negative. After further discussion, in which Sir John Gordon Spriggs dissented from the view that the customs convention prevented the prohibition, the sub- ject was dropped. v YORK rge W. Van Sicilen, a lawver of this city, has received an interesting letter from in-chief in the South African republic, in which the general says: tter of June 12 is at hand.

ONOLULU, Aug. 18.—Denuded of its delightful regarded from the serious standpoint of a political study, Hawaii is but an insignificant portion of the sovereign dominion of the United States; but, as its hurried acquisition somewhat threatens to Jchange the forms and principles of | government heretofore existing under | Federal rule, there may be some justi- fication in presenting to the people of the United States, through The Call, a few serious figures for their careful consideration before Congress deter- mines the form of government to be al- lotted to her recently acquired posses- sions, which may fancifully be called a sugar depot and planters’ paradise in | the land of dolce far niente, eternal {summer and luscious life.

They will not tend to show that Hawaii is, under existing conditions, or thc likely to rule for years to come, un- less an unexpected political and social cataclysm overwhelms them, a coun- try much to be envied as the rearing grounds of the Anglo-Saxons or Teu- tonic races.
