given her in its place. The exchange was
made so gracefully that the President

NATAL BRITISH AROUSED.
Aggravated by the Repeated Incur.
sions of the Roers.

LONDON, November 23-The fact that
fresh portions of Natal are being overrun
daily by the Beers is producing exaspera-
ton In that colony, and intense humila ton
in Great Britain, where the idea of posi-
bIc extensive violation of British soil was
cCutempLuously dismissed in the early stage
of the war.
Operators on the stock exchange here are
becoming nervous. and the continued fail in

Hard to Form Opinion.
In the meanwhile, from the scanty and
ema sculated dispatches which are drlb-
bling In from the front, it is difficult to
form an opinion of the true situation. The
BCer invaders are occasioning constant sur
priSes They have already cut off two por-
lions of the Iadysmith relieving force from
their base of supplies, and, with great rap
idity, are advancing on Pietcrm3ritzburg
with hOWltZerS and other artillery. Gen.
Clery's situat iOn, ii would appear, must be
becoming intolerable, so serious fighting
may be expected at any time, as. 1t IS
pointed out the general must clear his line
of communications in order to complete the
concentration Of the relieving force.
According to the latest reports from Ma
tai. the artillery duel was recommended
this morning at Moot river. The statement
that the British garrison there is only act
ing on the defensive appears to be an adj
mission Of weakness, and 1t is thought the
troops may be at the mercy of the strong
Boer forces reported in that neighbOrhood.

western frontier within forty-eight hours,
