GENERAL LORD METHuEN.

Hawker and three troopers, all doing
well. The health of the garrison is
good and the water supply plentiful.
Native reports to Kekewich state that
the enemy's camps to the south of Kim

with 5000 Beers is marching to the
south. The Beers are disappearing
from the vicinity of Kimberley The
enemy seems restless. Gatacre occu-
pied Bushman Hook yesterday with a
battalion of infantry. His main body
is at Putter's kraal. The enemy retired
toward Molteno."
According to dispatch from DeAar
dated Sunday. the Beers had destroyed
the bridge at Steynsburg the previous
day and We're being reinforced at that
point.
The Times, i'll its review OF the situa-
ton, voices the anxiety felt, and says:
"The activity the Beers display at
points separated by hundreds of miles,
their ability to invest several towns,
their readiness to offer battle at Bel
mont and at Gras Pan, their widespread
operations south of the Orange river and
their bold and offensive operations in
Natal seem te indicate numbers far in
excess of our estimates. 1t is clear that
the military requirements We're at first
greatly underestimated and that a sixth
division ought Immediately be prepared
! for embarkation.
