Marshal Vaillart, the Minister of War, has just
received from the Governor-General of Algeria a
report from General de Montabau, commanding
the division of Oran, giving an account of the ope-
rations accomplished during part of the month of
June by the light colu►rns which had been charged
to repress the incursions of the hoAtile wandering
tribes of the South-Wed. The following are the
principal points touched on :

"After detailing at some length the force of the
different columns which had been organised for
this service, the line of march pointed out to them
and other details, the report goes on to state that
on the 15th June Commandant Bachelier, after making
a forced march by night, came suddenly on the Donors
of several tribes who had assembled tegether. The Arabs
at first attempted to make a resistance, but were soon
after put to flight with the loss of 20 killed and about
30 wounded. The French troops also gained possession
of 30,000 sheep and 400 camels. The total loss of the
French was four men wounded and five horses killed.
Commandant Bachelier, after putting his booty in a place
of safety, effected a junction with the column of Lieut.-
Col. Niqueux. On the 17th an ostrich-hunter an-
nounced to the commanding officer the presence of a
large caravan from Morocco, near Ogbat-el-Aricha. A
force of 200 cavalry werc sent in that direction, and
they soon came up with the caravan, which was under
the direction of the Marabout El-Hadj-Mustepha-Ben.
Taieb. It was composed of 101 men, 11 women, and
134 camels loaded with different kinds of merchandise.
Among the latter were 230 kilogrammes of powder,
which was purchased by the French goums in order
that it might not get into the possession of the hostile
tribes, and the caravan was then allowed to proceed, as
the officer in command of the French detachment did
not consider lie had any right to detain it, On the 19th
Capt. Colomb, who commanded another of the columns,
came up with the Ouled Djerirs, another of the rebel
tribes, when a rather sharp engagement took place, but
the enemy were compelled to take to flight, abandon-
ing 5,000 sheep, 125 camels, 61 mules, and a consider.
able booty of different kinds. Five Arabs were killed, and
it is supposed several were wounded. The French bad
two killed, and six wounded. On the 24th, another
caravan, this time belonging to hostile tribes, was fallen
in with, also coming from Morocco ; 105 camels laden
with barley were seized and proved a welcome supply to
the goums. The report concludes by stating that the
columns, having thus effected with complete success the
object for which they had been organised, returned to
their respective quarters."
