The old wagon route to the Free State a traverses Colesburg, and crosses the ‘ â€"_wiver by a fine bridge, 1,8340 feet .‘ long. It is believed that the Boers «_ retreated towards Norval‘s _ Point, f further east; and the question â€" is whether Gen.

One important fact of the success of General French is that it will probably have a deterâ€" rent influence on Dutch disafiection, At Modder River the Boers appear to be modifying somewhat their line of defence. _ General Buller‘s scouts have destroyed a Boer camp estabâ€" lished in the vicinity of Springfield, southwest of Colenso, by a Free State commando.

Buller‘s «bifficulties have . been immeasurably increased by the enforced delay since the last engagement. He has now before him a series of walled and forâ€" tified hills, running 16 miles along the line of the Tugela.
