Cetewayo, the Zulu King, has been captured, and the Zulu war may there fore be considered at an end. It has been fall of stirring incident and dis aster, but has ended in the complete subjugation of the Zulu power and the capture of the King himself a wander ing fugitive. The issue shows that the

reports of Cetewayo's strength were ex aggerated, and that Lord Chelmsford had really broken up the Zulu army with the burning of TJlundini. Simul taneously with this satisfactory intelli gence we learn that Secocceni, the old enemy of thrs Boers in Transvaal, is about to surrender, and the trouble in that posssession is now at an end. An expedition is also to sent against the chief Moroisi. The only thing that would induce any of the Boeis even to listen to annexation was the prospect of bringing the troublesome bordering tribes in conflict with a more formid able enemy, and their final subjugation may do something towards reconciling them to the distasteful British rule.
