BRITISH REPULSE ATTACK

London Nov S.-The War Office has
received the following dispatches from
General Butler, dated Cape Town, We'd
nesday. Nov. s, 1850 D. M:
Colonel Kekewich telegraphs from
Kimberley, Nov. s that all is well
there and there has been no serious
attack as yet. a slight bombardment
did no damage. Information from
Mafeking shows that place was safe
October ~. Colonel Plummer had a
successful engagement near Fort Tuli.
October ca.
General White reports by pigeon
post that the wounded and some civil
ians from Ladysmith have been re-
moved four miles down the railway by
an arrangement with General Joubert
to neutral place, to save them from
the bombardment. Ninety-nine wound
ed from Dundee have been sent in un-
der flag of truce. They are all do
ing well, including the following Off
GERS:
Colonel C. c .Heckett, Major F..

Lieut.. G. A. Workman. Major w. Da-
wilson and Lieut.. ID. L. Welder.
"The bombardment was discontinued
November 4 and and 1t is expected to
recommence Nov. G."
The absence of stirring war news and
the rehabilitation in the estimates of
the public of General White, who, since
his reverse at Nicholson's Mex, GER
tainly appears to have used his CEN
trail position to successfully strike at
different points of the circle of invest
ment, thus restoring confidence in his
ability TO hold the Beers in check,
have permitted public attention to mo-
mentarily revert to the political fea-
lures of South Africa. and conflict is
confidently predicted in some quarters.

Sorties by the British.

London, Nov 7.--Tonight's welcome
dispatches from the front have rent
the veil of gloom enveloping Lady
smith. showing the British. garrison
not merely standing on the dogged de-
fensive, but executing a series of bril-
liant sorties. Accounts from differ
ent sources agree that the laconic Off
cial description of Thursdays engage
ment as IAN effective Smelling of the
Boer lager" was unduly modest. II
appears that General Sir George Stew
art White sent strong force Of cav
airy and infantry to attack the Beers
at Tatham's farm, about ten miles to
the northwest, near Bester's, and ap-
parently achieved a surprise, the Beers
being caught on the open veldt and cut
to pieces, and their camp captured
Encouraged by this success, General
White decided to risk an even more
important engagement on the following
day, which was again justified by sue
cess.
Ladysmith had been isolated and u
Boer force had intercepted the rail-
way between Ladysmith and Colenso.
This force on Friday had descended up
on Colenso, and as shown by the dis
patches from Estcourt had compelled
u hurried abandonment of Colenso
and a retirement of the British to Est
court. General White had ascertained
that the Beers were attacking Colenso
but he was not aware of the British
reinforcement. He had determined
therefore, to attack the Beers in the
rear, thus hoping to achieve the double
object of drawing OFF an attempt upon
the weak garrison of Colenso and pos
sibly Of reopening communication
southwark.
The Beers had advanced southwark
until they had occupied the hills north
of Tugela river and dominating Colen-
so on the other side of the stream. The
hills slope to a plain that reaches to
the banks Of the Tugela.
General Whites division caught the
Beers In the rear and after the hills
had been shelled the British infantry
stormed the position. Meanwhile the
British cavalry swept round the hills,
and as the retreating enemy descended
into the plains with British bayonets
behind and the river In front of them,
they were charged by the cavalry and
seem to have persisted almost to a
man. The British then returned to
Ladysmith without coming into touch
with the Colenso garrison. which had
retired to Estcourt.
BOERS ABOUT KIMBERLEY.
Orange River, Cape Colony, Monday
Nov. 6.-The Beers investing Kimber-
ley have been reinforced by 1000 men
and have succeeded in corraling about
5000 pounds worth of stock belonging
to Kimberley merchants, which was
intended for the sustenance of the
town.
