MR CHAMBERLAIN.
♦ HOPEFUL OF THIS SITUATION. RECEIVED BY THE KING. Per Pie-a Association. Received 17, 0.12 a.m. JLondon, March 16. Mr Chamberlain Rssured bis welcomers that he viewed tbe situation in South Africa in a t-pirit of hopefulness, even of confidence, tie predicted that progress would be slow, but; was certain the war demonstrated, by the oversea colonies' response, that the Briton abroad, though apparently absorbed <n personal and local concerns, still retained bis love of the Motherland and his pride io the Empire-. The Dutch laid no claim to Motherland. Ou'side South Africa they knew little, and cared less about the Empire. He hoped that in the near future the provincial feeling wculd yield to a wider conception of national destiny, and that tbe Dutch would share with us a sense of reep"nsibility for Imperial inheres's ard obligations. Tbe KiDg and Quen received Mr Chamberlain aii Buckirgham Palace yesterday.
