Generail Botha, and Lord Kitchener, commanding the British forces in South Africa, issued this morning, begin with a telegram from Sir Alfred ner to Mr. Chamberlain. The dispatch, is dated Pretoria, February 23d, and states that Botha has returned from a meeting with her husband-bringing; a letter in reply to Sir Alfred Miner's verbal offering to meet General Botha as a means of ending the war on t-he express understanding that he would not discuss the question of the inde-pendenceof the Transvaal and- the Orange River colony.

Mrs. Botha assured Sir Alfred that the letter was written with that point clearly ynderstood. General Botha referred the matter his and it was stated' that the meeting would probably take place at Middleberg. Mr. Chamberlain replied that he was glad to hear of general Botha's desire to treat and hopefl It was "He will find us," said the CJonial Secretary, "anxious to meet him on all points affecting his Individual position." On February 27fh Sir Alfred Milner cabled Lord Kitjchener informing him thai General Botha, had written that he would be in Pretclria at 10 o'clock a.

A dispatch from Lord Kitchener to the War Office, dated Pretoria, February 2Sth, reports a lorig interview with General Botha, who showed very good feel- ine and seemed anxious for peace. asked for Information, which -he said he would submit his Government, the Generals and the people.

He said they could go on for some time and he was! not sure he would be able to bring about peace without, indes-pendencer "I decline to Ndiscus such a point," said Lord Kitchener, "and said a modified form if Independence would be most dangero is and would lead to war in the utur Replying to General Botha's Inquiry, I informed him that when hostility ceased the military would be rertlaced by a crown colony a'd-ministratlanconsisting of a nominated executive and an blected assembly to advise him, followed after a period by a representative government.

"General Botha generally seemed satisfied with these conditions." Among the questions to which Lord Kitchener apparently did not reply were when the war prisoners would return and regarding thff taking over of debts of the republics, including those legally contracted since the beginning of the Botha was repcrteq to bejtaak- ing a strong point of this.

Ho referred to notes which had issued, amounting to less than a million pounds. Lord Kitchener jarranged to communicate Eotha's views to his government. All that he said was. Qualified by, being subject to connrmatiob from the home government. On March 3 Sir Alfred Milner cabled Lord Kitchener, suggesting the following reply to General "I beg to inform you that on the cessation of hcstilltiejs and the complete surrender of arms, cannon and munitions in the iands of he burghers in the fields at the government's depots or elsewhere, His Majesty's government is prepared at ont to grant amnesty- in the Transvaal and Orange River Colony for, all bona fide nets of war during the hostilities, as wel as move the governments of Cape Co cny and, Natal to similar action, qualified by the disfranchisement of any British subjects implicated in the war.

The military prisoners in St. Helena, Ceylon and elsewhere, on complete surrender, shall be brought back to their country. Military law shall at once be replace by a civil administration, tut It is the desire of His Majesty's government soon as will permit to establish representative government. On the cessation of hostilities, a high court, independent of the executive, shall be established to administer the Land, church property, truats and orphan funds shall be respected.

The government does not intend to extend the franchise to the Kaffirs In the Transvaal and Orange River Colony bf fore a repic-sentative government is granted." The conditions Regarding assistance to the 'farmers, firearms, are the same as those in Lord Kitchener's replies to General Botha. Sir Alfred Milner tidds that he agrees to the above except as to the desires for pnodincation regarding British subjects In Cape Colony and Natal In ths Boer armyj if they, returned to those colonies will be liable to be dealt with "under-the laws of those colonies, passed to meet circumstances arising in war. 1 1 He added: "While I 'am willing to concede much in order to strengthen. General Botha in inducing the people' to submit, amnesty for the rebels is not, 'in my opinion, a point which His Majesty's government can affcrd to concede.

I think it would have a deplorable effect; upon Cape Colony and Natal to obtain peace by such a concession." v- Mr. in a reply" dated March 6th, directs Lord Kitchener to modify the terms on a number of points.
