LONDON, Nov. 23.-Although it is evi.

becoming sufficiently alarming, moth.
ing can be officially ascertained to allay
public anxiety or the curiosity felt re-
gardlng the disposition of the reinforce

mere recital OF few casualties at
Mooi river, which confirm the reports
Of sfllrmishes there.
One correspondent says that 1000

Falls, near Pietermaritzbarg, and that
the inhabitants are fleeing to the capl-

General Joubert's plan, apparently, is
daring attempt to defeat the British
relieving column from Durham in detail,
while still attempting the reduction Of
Ladysmith. A serious attack on Mooi
river camp is LOW hourly expected,
with the object of destroying the bridge
at Weston. Should this be accom-
plished, the Beers would be free to turn
their attention to Estcourt, while if 1t
faiied, the enemy would retire again on
Weenen and rejoin the investing forces
around Ladysmith,
PRETORIA, Nov. 23.-The following
dispatch was received from the Beer
headquarters near Ladysmith:
s'The field cornets of the Pretoria
commando reported that British gun
carriages and some horsemen had been
heard moving last night in Ladysmith.
Our outposts observed the British en-
deayoring to sortie toward Lombards

great and, therefore our artillery began

REED WARNS HIS PARTY.

The Democrats still keep harping
on the fact of Judge Nash being a
minority governor" claiming that
if it had not been for the Jones can
didacy Mclean would have been
elected governor. The Democrats
might as well stop their clatter about
a minority governor and all such
'rot.' They were soundly licked
and all the whistling which they can
do to keep up their courage will
avail them nothing.-Last Nights
Beacon.
1t seems that the Democrats are
not doing all the 'clattering" about
the result in Ohio. Ex-Speaker
Thomas B. Reed, who has always
been accounted pretty good Repub-
Iican, in an address to the members
of the New York Chamber of Com
merce, at Delmonicos Tuesday
night. told New York's business
men of the warning from Ohio" as
follows:
''I am not obtruding politics upon
this assembly," said Mr.. Reed.
"That would be out of place. With
out any reference to its political sig
nificance take the vote of Ohio,
Two years ago, when we We're in
earnest, and the question of none
tary standard was fully before the
people, the candidate who repre-
sented the gold standard received
5000 votes, and all his opponents
received 486,00O. That was 10000
majority.
''This year the Republican candi-
date had but $4,000 plurality, while a
third candidate had 100000 votes. In
the old days: when a majority over
all was required, there would have
been no election. do not enter into
the question of whether such an op-
position can be united; I think it
could not, nevertheless, that is a
chance which better not be taken.
But it is not the figures themselves
that are of much account. It is what
they indicate. If there is a settled
national feeling men vote for men
and things, but when the public
mind is unsettled they vote against
men and things. Both Ohio and
Kentucky are examples of this.
'sThis country, and, indeed, all the
world, is prosperous, but in our rush
for gain we must not forget the
foundation of our prosperity, which
is consciousness that the machine
with which we do business is sure
and steadfast. Our party now has
possession of both houses and is
responsible to the country. For long
years we have had no responsibility.
The Senate was one way and the
House another, and nobody knew
whom to blame. If the, wishes of
our people are not carried out, the
responsibility is clear"
These are the words of ex-Speaker
