Brave RebeIs--British Victory.


LONDON, December 2O.-The Stand
ards correspondent at Suakim sends
the following particulars of the battle:
At 4:30 this morning, a man-of-war
racer opened the battle by Smelling
the enemy's trenches. The ships up
the coast followed suit, and landed
parties who lighted fires, and placed
dummies in position. This had the
effect of deceiving the enemy. Com
ing from Handaub the whole force
moved towards the enemy's left flank,
with a naval detachment, with ma
chine, guns and cavalry, and mounted
infantry, scouting and protecting the
TANKS and rear; two lines comprising
batallions in double companies,
rushed toward the left corner of the
enemy's trenches. The British in
fantry and Egyptian reserve lined the
embankment between the water forts.
Gen. Grenfell and staff keeping up
the terrible fire, the enemy held their
ground with intense courage,
until the black brigade charged
their trenches, which fell
after hale an hours hard fighting. The
rebels fought with fanatical bravery.
Two of the enemy's guns were cap
tured. The naval brigade did splen-
did work. The Scottish Borderers
are now at work entrenching the
rebel position. The enemy are re-
treating toward Hasheen and Tawar.
The British force numbers 1900 men.
