Pictures From South Africa.
During- the absence of the English from .Johannesburg, many Boer families took possession of the houses of wealthy residents. Above is depicted the drawing-room of a mining magnate, whose mansion was thus invaded. Our drawing is from a sketch by Henry Lea, sent to us from South Africa since Ihe capture of the mining capita], and is accurate in every detail. It shows what the millionaires of Johannesburg may expect to find when they return to their deserted mansions.
