Excerpt from Our South African Empire, Vol. 2 of 2 The disaster at Isandlwana was not without its effect on the Boers across the Vaal. English prestige seemed to have suffered an eclipse on that fatal field, and the Nationalist party in the Transvaal itself saw their opportunity and pressed it. A meeting of farmers took place at Wonderfontein to hear what their delegates, just returned a second time from Europe, had to say. After some discussion it was decided to choose a committee who might represent their views and protest formally against the annexation. The protest was virtually the same as that of April 11th, 1877.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

In the following chapters I have attempted to give, to theE nglish reader especially, a conspectus of many of the principal events inS outh African history, and, with this object, have arranged my subject matter under certain heads, each forming an independent study in itself, but preserving, as far as possible, a chronological sequence. I have deemed this plan preferable to that of dry historical narrative where, as in the record of the Kafir wars, the memory becomes surfeited with names, dates, and all the monotonous details of a frontier campaign, and so, where the annalist in the limited sense of the word may have been long, I chave been short. My desire has been to show cause and effect, to trace the workings of a policy or the drift of a line of action. For instance, I have drawn attention to the fact that the Imperial Government have on many occasions, in fact, almost persistently, ignored and disclaimed a forward policy inS outh A frica.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1887 edition. Excerpt: ... No. IV. By F. H. Turnock, Of Winnipeg (manitoba). (" Civis Romanus Sum") HEN we look back into the past and note the present con V V dition of the various empires that have from time to time held the foremost positions in the world's history, we are tempted to ask ourselves the question, What position will the British Empire occupy one hundred years hence? Is she, as some pessimists would have us believe, destined within that period to meet the fate that has befallen so many mighty empires, to disappear like Assyria and Persia, or decline like Spain? or will she, as we hope, continue to hold, if anything, in a greater degree than at present, the proud position which so becomes her, of leader of civilization, the mother of commerce and the seas, to which, as in Joseph's dream, all her contemporaries shall bow and make obeisance? We believe that the solution of this question rests mainly with the present generation, and that the action of her subjects for the next quarter of a century will decide whether she is still to pursue her onward course, or whether the summit of her greatness has been reached and the period of her decadence is at hand. Those historic empires seemed in their day as prosperous as the British Empire appears now,--yet they fell; and, as history repeats itself, it is not improbable that the empire which is to-day the most exalted, may to-morrow be humbled in the dust. However, the page of history is spread open before us, and it is for us to examine into the circumstances which operated in causing the downfall of these nations, and apply the conclusions we arrive at to our own. If we find we are suffering from the same weaknesses that undermined their strength, let us at once seek to remedy them, lest a like evil come...
