British Forces Surrendered.

By private message to the editor
of the DAILY PRESS, received last
night. the startling news came that
the entire British forces at Lady
smith, under the command OF GEN
eral White, had surrendered to the
Beers, under General Joubert.
The Beers had made ostentatious
preparations to erect batteries on
a hill commanding the town
with the purpose of lombard
ing it, but this was merely
a ruse to invite an attack,
and when the British sent
out troops to drive the Beers of,
they speedily retreated, while their
main force attacked the Britishers
on the flank, defeated them and
prevented their return to the gar
rison. Having thus divided the
British forces they had the garri-
son and the troops in the fields at
their mercy, and to save needless
bloodshed, the British surrendered.
As the British forces numbered ID,
coo troops, the blow is a mighty
severe one to John Bull, and is
bound to prolong the war indeiin-
itcly, and to cause an immense
outpouring of blood and treasure
before the subjugation of the Beers
is completed.
