The Boer mastery of the district has
caused a spread of the insurrection, but
this, no doubt. will be promptly sup
pressed. as large British forces are avail
able not far away.
The indications as TO Gen. Buffers i'm
mediate intentions are contradictory. one
informant. who has intimate relations
with the war office. predicts movement
within the next day or two. A number
of correspondents. who have been with
Gen. Butler. have gone to Durham for
few days rest, under the impression that
nothing is to be done Immediately.
The war office has directed the Eighth
division of 1900 men TO prepare TO go
out.
The fact that Gen. Buffers dispatch. re-
vising the casualties to the British troops
at potgieters DRIFT. Is dated from Chieve-
ley. is taken in some quarters as an In
dication that Gen. Butler has removed his
headquarters to that place. There is
nothing to indicate whether or not he left
any large force at Springfield.

Military observers do not regard this as
more than a menace. Nevertheless the
news produces an unpleasant impression
here. Gen French had maneuvered the
Beers out of Rensberg in December. ON
January It was reported that he could
take Colesberg in two days, with re-
Inducements. These were sent. but the
Beers were also reinforced. Since then
the British lines have been entended east
and west. so that at the opening of this
week they constitute a great horseshoe
twenty-five miles I'm length. The lines were
not continuous. but all the strong positions
were held.

The treatment of the Boer delegates
by the administration will be dependent
upon themselves. If they show u dig
nified attitude and do not lend them
selves to the schemes of anti-admip-
istration politicians, they will be
received and treated with all due
respect. But if they show that they
are merely adjuncts Of the Democratic
party, trying to raise an undignifed,
undiplomatic hue and cry, then they
will have only themselves to thank if
their treatment in Washington is Of
