Fusileers took UP their position and with
out waiting any time opened fire by vol
leys at long range on the advancing enemy
who were crossing the railroad from the
northwest of town. A loud report and a
whizzing overhead told the tale of the
blue Jackets watchfulness. A big puff
of smoke indicated that their aim was
good, the she'll bursting In the midst OF
the Beers, several of whose horses We're
observed galloping about riderless. The
Beers doubled back heller SHELTER. On
advantageous points OF the surrounding
hills the Beers were posted Their aston
ishment must have been great, as they
speedily re,ire>.S Ono Blot Caused them
to withdraw out Of sight. They were
coming on with tho utmost Confidence, ex-
pectipg to be in Estcourt within hfteah
minutes after crossing the railroad.
The blue Jackets abruptly arrested their
