LONDON. Jan. 22.-1t is evident from
General Buffers dispatch to the war
office and the ndvices to the Associated
Press from Spearman's camp that big
battle is now being fought. AS far as
can be gathered from these dispatches,
the result remains undecided, and un-
less the Beers withdrew during tho
night, the engagement, on which
hangs the fate Of Ladysmith, and
which may prove the turning point OF
the whole war, will be resumed this
morning. The war office posted the
following dispatch from General Bull
Ter, dated Spearman's camp, January
20, evening:
General Clery. with part of Gen.
eral Warren's force, has been in action
from a. m. till p. m. to-day. by
judicious use Of his artillery he has
fought his way up, capturing ridge
after ridge, for about three miles. The
troops are now bivouacking on the
ground he has gained. but the main
position is still in front of them. The
casualties were not heavy. About 100
wounded had been brought in by $50
p. m. The number of killed has not
yet been ascertained."
