London, Jan. 2.-The Daily Mail has
the following dispatch, dated January
LIST, from Reinsberg:
Yesterday afternoon a big force Of
cavalry and infantry, with ten guns,
under the personal command Of Gen.
French, moving by detour, occupied
some hills three miles from Colesberg,
where the Beers were In strength. con-
fldent In the natural aid afforded them
by the hills around.
THE enemy's position extended six
miles around the entire village. At day
break our artillery opened the battle.
The Beers, taken by surprise, re-
piled vigorously. An artillery duel was
maintained for two hours. Then Boer
Hotchkiss collapsed and was aban-
doned. We captured it, A Boer big
gun was silenced, but this and the other
Boer guns were withdrawn to the
northward, whittier we are harassing
the Boer retreat by damaging shell
fire.
"Colesberg is in our hands, and the
few remaining loyalists are jubilant
We have captured many wagons and a
considerable quantity Of stores Our
loss was quite slight but the Beers
must have suffered heavily They may
stop at Achtertang or cross the river
all together at Norvalspont, where the
bridge is still intact"
The success of Gen. French in driv-
ing the Beers from Colesberg has shot
a welcome ray OF light through the
gloom OF the campaign in South Africa.
Everywhere II is commented upon as
an example OF sound tactics. and as an
Illustration Of what may be done when
the right methods are employed with
the Beers. The government is urged
TO take the lesson TO heart and see
that no stone is left unturned I'm the
endeavor TO get the largest possible
force OF cavalry and mounted infantry

Now that Gen. French has the Beers
on the run, the hope Is expressed that

which is twelve miles distant. The old

the question is whether Gen. French
will be able to secure these two bridges
before the Beers destroy thm
one important result OF the success Of
Gen. French is that II VIII have a de-

There is some disposition here to eyag
