cotlege for the hearty welcome which they had extended to him since he had come amongst them.Although he wax one of the youngest graduates, in one zense, he hoped that as he grew older his energy and love would never grow old and never grow cold.(Applause).Bishop Dunn, on behalf of thr corporation, presented Dr.Heneker's picture to the university.He paid a high eulogy on the work which the retiring chancellor had done for Bishop's, and said, that although le was retiring, he hoped he would long be spared as a member of the corporation.(Applause).Dr.Heneker said that it.was one cf the highest honors that could be conferred upon a man that he should be deemed worthy to have his portrait placed upon the walls of such an institution as Bishop's, and handed down to posterity.He said thal another duty he had to perform was that of leaving the chair and helping to install a successor, Who had proved himeelf worthy of such high honor.\u201cDr.John Hamilton,\u201d he cuntinved,

week that they would leave Cape Town about the ist.\u2018The impression prevails that Lord Kitchener will ask thom to remain in South Africa alittle while longer.WM- STEAD'S WILD TALK.Londen, Dec.5.\u2014 William Stead says that England is waging a second war in South Africa.According to the statements of her officials, the first war, waged against Krugerism aod to establish Jritish paramouncy, was embed when ihe two Revublics were autexed to the British Empire.She is now waging a second war of con quest pure and simple, having for its objet the extinction of a aationatity, and having as its means 1he cold-Elood- ed infliction of ruthless cruelle = upon women and chibdien.It is a war wag- «1 mostly with the torch, and arson is employed as the chief means of pa- ification.IF the British, alter the flight of Kruger, had offered to gua rantee tie Boers who laid down their arms the possession of their private property and the right uf colonial seif- sovernment such as is cnjoved in the Cape.there would have leen no sf cond war but the British Minister: nd the majority of the British people, irritated by the prolonged and heroic resistance of the Moers against.overwhelming odds, were determined to accept uothing less than unconditional surrender.BOER OPINION OF DEWET.The Krooustad correspondent of the Daily Graphic says : asser\\ation of prisoners that the Boers are all determined to continue the war to ihe bitter end is scarcely borne out by the entries in the diary found on \u2018the body of a Boer who was killed in an afiair with a patrol of Colom] Pilcher near Thaba \u2018Nchu.The journal hegins on March 9 and ends on October 21.Ou October 23rd, General Dewet arrived in camp, and is thus described : \"As we last saw him, a man of medium heigh', with a redhish beard and little, fiery eyes.When vou hear him speak vou know him te be a man from head to foot\u2014not talker, but what he says you feel.One could go through thick and thin with him.\u2019 DeWel.addressed the laager.lle regretted that so few membxTs of the Voiksraud who had sworn at the beginning of the war to be true to the cause till death, were still fighting.The General then went on to give a short account of his last trip, which, according to the diary, was most amusing, being frequently interrupted with laughter.TO INVITE THE BOERS.Washington.Dec.5.\u2014 Representative Fitzgerald, who during the Boer war made a number of ineffectual otis to have the sympathy of the United States Government extended to the Boe.is now presmting a resolution having as an end the transportation of a large number of them to the United States.The resolution in part is as follows : \u201cWhereas, the Doers desire ta come to America; and \u201cWhereas, Tt is conceded that they would make a valuable addition to the citizenship of the United Siates.being a sturdy, self-reliant, intelligent and industrious peopif; and \u2018\u2019Whereas.There are approximately 1.074,881,662 acres of public lands, of wl 17135880 acres are undisposcd ot, \u201cWhereas, On March 3, 1851, Conaress passed a resolution requesting the President to authorize the employment of the United States frigate Mississippi to bring Kossuth and his compatriots from Turkev to 1he United Hates.which was done; therefore be t \u201cResolved.that the President ie here by requested to authorize the use of any United States steamship in the Government service lo be sent 10 Lorenzo Marques, South Africa, to trans port to the United States the burghers of the late Transvaal Republic, or so many of them as may desire to emi- arate, and their families, in order that ther mav take advantage of the opportunity to take up land it the public domain of the United States under the Homestead act.\u201d WOULD SHOOT ITS SISTER.Hinemfontein, Dec.2.\u2014 Lieutenant Hole, Secretary of the Military Governof, and the two sisters of Ceorge Brand, have returned, having failed to persuade that leader to surrender.When they arrived near his commando Brand (twice wounded) declined to nec them, and threatened to have them shot if they did not return.Lieutenant finie and the ladies were subsequently taken prisoners and conveyed fo Pe trusburg, where they were kept for some days.They were then sent by cart to Kimberley, whence tly return- cd here by train.res rer CORUNDUM

Foreign Prelates.Havana, Dec.5.\u2014 The fight now being waged over Bishop Sharetti, the bead of the Catholic Church in Cuba, and special representative of the Pope, continues to grow fn bitterness.It is headed by General Maximo Gomez and Salvado Cisneros.Both claim to have no personal grievance against the Bishop or against the Church, but contend there are many Cuban priests who would make as good a Bishop as any [foreigner and demand that a Cuban be appointed.Meetings are held to protest ugainst the continuance of Bishop Sharetti here, and a com mitice hes communicated by
