I have no doubt that this leg- is'ation will be evacted at the com- ing session.” mA ————— THE NEW TRER, Driven from the land which they conquered, reclaimed from savagery and made their home, the Boers are again inspanning their oxen and trek- king across the desert to find some place in South Africa where England will not follow them as the wolf-pack follows the flock. When they crossed the Vaal and made their homes on the veldt, they thought they were so far away and in so poor a country that England's greed would not be temptéd, and by treaty they were assured that they would be safe from English aggression or interference. But unfortunately for the Boers, they built their republic over ay unsus- peated reel of gold, and w the h was discovered, Englisbjpledge _beeame no more than smoke in the ‘wind, It was far from Cape Town to Pretoria, butxot to far for She Lion 0 stretch his paw, smash the republic and fasten his claws in the golden reef, the Vaal is over; the wave of British civilization has rolled across the Vaal and swept the Boer and his farm from the wveldt; and he gathers up the wreckage and treks across the desert to Damaraland, where Germany offers him asylum beyoud the reach of Eng land, Under what conditions the Boers will settle in Damaraland is pot yet known. It is reported that Holland is willing to purchase for them a por- tion of the country from the South west African Company, a German concern; but it is alsos tated that the German Colonial OfMce stipulates that trekkers shall obey German laws promise that their children become German subjects.

The system of free mail delivery in country districts was inaugurated so recently that many readers will proba- bly be surprised to learn that it now employs the services of over twelve hundred regular carriers who trans port letters, newspapers and packages to nearly nine hundred thousand per- sons in various portions of the United States. The report of First Assistant Postmaster-General Johnson shows that more than thirty-five millions of separate picces of mail were handled by this branch of the department last year. In Pennsylvania the service has been put in operation in eight coun- ties, Congress made an appropriation of $1,750,000 for rural free delivery dur- ing the present fiscal year, and astrong effort will doubtless be made to have this sum increased for the month ending June 30, 19002. Testi mony as to the working of the new plan is almost uniformly favorable, It is never adopted except in cases where the people of some community peti. tion for it through their representatives at Washington. Five hundred dollars per annum is the regular salary of these officials, twelve. hundred families, ana each carrier provides his own horse and vehicle without ex- pense to the Treasury. On every day in the year, except Bundays, the speci- fied territory must be covered, without regard to stormy weather, snd in case of disability from illness or sccident, the carrier is required to furnish an ac- ceptable substitute, The system, iu spite of its compara tively rapid progress, is still in its in- fancy, and if it is honestly and efll- ciently managed, there seems to be no and until it covers'a large proportion United States.
