Are the Boers Mean People ?
"The Boera ought to be whipped
beonuae they are tbe meanest people
on earth "?Presiding Elder M ?.
Church, South
The quotation above ia from an
elderly Christian (?) leader that livea
not a tbooaand milea from Sumter.
I do not know bia etandard of
meanness Tbe Roman historian
said, "tbe Christians were tbe most
depraved of mankind and hatera of
humanity " About tbe year 1100 I
read, ' If a man loves those that de?
sire to love God and Jesus Christ, if
be will neither curse nor swear, nor
lie, nor Commit lewdness, nor kill,
nor deceive his neighbor, nor avenge
himself of bis enemies, he was ac?
cused of heresy and punished "
My little girl aaid Jesus was killed
because He told tbe Jews they were
not good eoougb Just two genera?
tions ago tbe M ?. people, south,
were conaidered by tbe cultured to
be mean, low bred and ignorant.
How we forget, bow we forget. We
remember tbe beautiful letter writ?
ten by the Boer general to tbe widow
of tbe Eugliah general when bia
body waa returned, reminding ua of
oor own dear Lee io bia treatment of
Mrs Geo Kesroy.
Allow me further to call to mind
the song of the British soldier by
Kipling about ' Following tbe Bobs
to Hell/' aud what the special Corres
pondent of tbe L loo Dsily Times
wrote from tbe LJd of Colesberg
which the Boers won, "Our burying
party sent out was received by tbe
Boers sympathetically. They ren
dered assistsnce also to our men.
Over tbe graves of our men tbey
sang a hymn, and some of the lead
era made impressive speeches, ex?
pressing abh?rence of war, regretting
the losses on both aides, and declar
ing tbe hope tbat the war would soon
be ended." Ooe wonders if ever
before iu the history of wsr the
victors iu such an engagement stood
around the graves of the meu they
had just ehot, sang a bymu, and,
amid these solemn surroundings, im?
pressively bewailed tbe strife of
blood, which tbey fervently hoped
would soon be ended
Mystery of earthly affairs that we
must shoot such men. Alas ! for
human wisdom. May God protect
and spread virtue.
We know but little of the Boers,
except these occasional glimpses into
their hears through, as it were, the
key holes But the English princi?
pality, don't we know her, the griz
zled old villianoua devii. She killed
my great {grandfather, and treated us
an if we were the meanest of man?
kind, as wild animals, if you please,
?Imply because we elected to change
our allegiance from her crown to the
principle of liberty. Bbs has SB?
compileHcii the globe by conquests,
aud in vain huve I searched lor the
poople her advent has blessed
Long since the ruling class of
Knglai'd litis ceased to be looked
upon an Christians, and Ibeii belt tuS
influence and power lias about mined
the world
Think ol the sad, sad times we
have had in this country since adopt
ing her ways Think uf the brute in
her, of how she treats the masses,
like tho Indians treated tho wild
animals in tbe forest, never doing
aught for them, but continually prey?
ing upon them Think of how one*
tenth of her home population are
abject paupers without hope or pros
pect
h might ba said the Boers starred
11ie war. it has been said the Biers
wore fools to issue that ultimatum, bjt
tbey would have been leo times bigger
fools not to have issued it. We read
where the good old Qieen called for
troops to quell disturbances in "my
Soutb African possessions.99 Toe last
we read from bor was for help to repel
tovasioo. What is she after ?
1 knew from tbe beginning that it
was a oaso of pagao Rome aod pagao
Carthage ; both oould not exist io
Africa, which contains one-quarter of
all toe land io the world. Oo Eng?
land's past we see only deliberate cold?
blooded murder aod robbery. The
Boers knew ber intentions over two
yeare ago, wbeo President Kruger re?
ceived a message from bis minister at
Loodoo, containing these word*: "Time
to prepare." No cation on earth would
have issued suoh a manifesto to boast?
ful Eoglaod iuoh as was submitted by
that baodfulfof Dutch farmers. I say
that advisedly I hope they were in?
spired by God If they have ought of
virtue I pray God to lead them to the
highest success.
