England, unsatiafled with her bloodstained record, cannot|rest without, in •ome way br

other. furnishing her usual

bloody and outrageous items to the world's Uitvyl Unsatisfied with Iter cruelty to Ireland, she has »ow detected her infamous darts of arbitrary oppression to .the Boers in the southern portion of Africa. The demon-like nature of the English government is demonsrated in her jealousy, which Is the cause of the present trouble with the southern Dutch colonists. The Boers are dutch farmers, lo cated ia the territory about Cape Good Hope, removed there from their own country, and from England, whose tyranical form of government they could no longer endure. These Boers own the land, and England had surrendered all claims upon it until the valuable productiveness of vegetable and mineral matter, created in her a desire to regain the territory at any cost. These industrious inhabitants, after years of toil and cultivation, have succeeded in greatly increasing the value of their possessions and now England's unmerciful hand is waiving ove their heads threats of beody war, simply because she, In her greedy selfishness, finds the persecuted Boers successfully advanc ing In wealth and civilizatian.

Great Britain appears to delight ia per secution, and is no better thau the savage tribes with whom she was forced to contend before the thirteen colonies ot brave true born Americans taught her a lesson, from the effect of which she will nty^r recover thoughout but the entire progress of time. She is not capable of showing sympathy with thoughts only of herself. She is continually plotting, alike against friends and enemies, and no one know, when or where the thunderbolt is to strike. Her treatment towards Ireland, and the Boers th a fair sample of h£r history, from the fondatiou of her Government uutil the present day. and properly informed persons cannot help but sympathize with the Dutch colinists. of jsouth em Africa.

ms. BROWN, FOB LIFE The great trial of Mrs. Mary Brown for the murder of her husband has just closed, and the following is the verdict of the jury:

We, the jury, And $e defendant guilty of murder, In the first degree, and sen tence her to the penal department of the Indiana Reformatory Institution for Women and Girls during the term of her natural life." w-

Public opinion seems to be, that the verdict is a very just one, and that she should serve out the full sentence of the court. Very much unnecessary sympathy has been exhibited by the ladies of Indianapolis for this woman. There is no reason, ia the world why a woman, when she becomes so diabolical and fiendish as Mrs. Brown has shown herself to be, should not suffer the full penally of the litw.

THB reoent remarkalbe fasting tost by Dr. Tanner has lad to the exEum*tion of a curious book written by one Wanley, entitled Wonders of the Lit* Uo World,-" in which the writer has rooorded the following feats of alleged ibstinenoe from food: a doctor In the Province of Bern, Switzerland, ia a book entitled A Wonderful History of the Fastinjr of Appolonia Schrelra, a Virgin in Bern/' says she was by command of the Magistrates brought to Bern, and having a strict guard put upon her and adl kmdi of trials put in praotioe for the discovery of any collusion or fraud in the business, in conclusion they found none, but dismissed bfer fairly. In the first year of her fasting she slept veiy little in the second not at all, and so continued for a long time after.**

iong-oontinued abstinence from Paul us Lentulus,

Grerhwdus Bacoldianuss, physician to the Roman King Maximilian, tells of Margaret, a ten-year-old girl, born in the village of Roed, near Spires, who began abstaining from kinds of food in 1539, and fasted for three years, walking in the meantime, and talking and laughing and playing as other thildren of her age.woula do. She was by special order of the Bishop of Spires delivered into the hands of the parish, priest and by him narrowly observed. Afterward by commaud of the King, Dr.Bacoldianuss took charge of her and subjected her to the olosest scrutiny for twelve days, when finding that no deception was practiced he allowed her to return to her friends.

Katherine Binder, born in the Palatinate, in 1685, is reported by Fabritius to have fed only upon air for a period of over nine yeaf? another maiden, aged fourteen, Dorn in the Dukedom of Juliers, is credited with having dons without food for three years.

The Maiden of Meurs fasted for fourteen years. Her name was Eve Fleigen, and her wonderful feat is recorded, originally, in Dutch. From the time she became twenty-one years old until she reached the age of thirty-six, she is said to have taken no sustenance whatever. She fasted from the year 1567 until 1611, and the faot is testified to by the magistrates of the town of Meurs, and by the town minister, who closely observed her. Over a picture of the starving maiden is written a Latin verse of which the following is a translation*. This Maid of Mours thirty and at* year# spent. Fourteen of whlcb took no oourUhmont Tbtur pale and wan sb6 nits aad and Alone* A garden's atl she lovea to look upon.

Philip Melancthon said he had known Luther to fast for four days together., "I know," said I'oggins, "a man who lived for two years together without any food." He hod also read of a girl who fasted the whole of twelve years in the reign of the Emperor Lotharius.

John Scot, a Scotchman, lived about tfe* v©ar 1639. Having lost a lawsuit, he shut himself up in the abbev of Holyrood House, and abstained from meat and drink for thirty or forty days. The news of the feat having gone abroad, the King ordered a second test Soot was shut up in a orivate room in the Castle of Edinburgh, and nobody was allowed access to him a little water and a little oread were set before him. which were found not to have been diminished at the end of thirty-two days. He gave like proof of his endurance to Pone Clement ViL at Rome, and when he left tho Holy City carried with him prool of his long fast under tho Pope's seal At Venice he repeated his fast. Returning to England he denounced the divorce of King H«ary VIII. from Queen Catherine, and was thrust into prison, where he fasted for fifty days. How John Scot euded his hunger-enduring career is not known.

Jaoobus, a Frenchman, who made a pilgrimage to Rome, after recovery From a sickness, swore that he had taken no foo^BOr drink forover two years.

Several women were at one tune buried In & stable near Piedmont, in Italy, under an avalanche of »now from the Alps, and remained in prison during thirty-seven days, at the j*nd of which time they were taken out alive. A two-year-old child that was with them died. They wore without food all the time.

In 1160 a caravan of over one thousand Abyssinians on their way across the desert to Cairo, found themselves without food, and' tho whole number subsisted for two months on gum arable alone, only a few dying of hunger.

In a paper read before the Royal Society, of London, on December 9, 1742, an account was given of John Ferguson, a native ot the Parish of Killmellfoord, in Argyleshire, who lived eighteen vears on water alone. It appears that John had overheated himself while in pursuit of cattle on the mountains, drank a large quantity of spring water, slept for twenty-four hours, and, when he awoke, found that nothing but water or weak whey would remam on his stomach. Hence the necessity of sticking to water, with a very occasional change to thin whey, for nearly twenty years.
