What is the result?
He is sought after, even under
the cannon of revenue cutters.
Men risk fine and imprisonment
to make his intimate acquaintance,
but it means death to the seal.

London, Jan. 12.-4 A. M-Although
the war office declines to confirm the
report that Lord Methuen has been re-
called to England. inquiries made by a
correspondent at Methuen's home in
Wiltshire have ELECTED the information
that when he received his wound. his
horse threw him heavily, and spinal
and other injuries supervened.
Although the number of deaths from
dysentery and enteric fever at Lady
smith have been published by the war
office since Saturdays fight, nothing
has been given out regarding the loss
IS in the engagement. The war office
asserts that it has nothing to give out
Armchair critics. who. in the absence
of rftortorial or official descriptions
from the seat of war, pour forth pages
of conjecture and opinion, conclude
that net much is to be expected of the
British hosts in South Africa until

censorship, taking it for granted that
full narratives sent by mail would
supply all deficiencies. For some
weeks. however even the mail CORE
spondence that has arrived in London
has shown signs of habtual scissorng
by the censor. Pages are remembered
without chronological or logical con-
nection. leaving the happenings de-
scribed quite unintelligible in many
cases. The editors acting possibly in
concert are laying these facts before the
public and insisting that they be per
mitted to know and to print the facts.
The Daily Mail formally accuses the
war office of "doctoring" in editing Of
fetal dispatches before their issuance
and cites particulars. The Daily
Chronicle AYERS that there seems to be
an Official conspiracy against letting
the truth he known.
Lee-MetfOrd cartridges are running
short in the British magazines and, &C
cording to semi-official report. the
war office proposes to fall back tenn
porarily upon 100, 100000 Mark " eX-
pending bullets most of which are al
ready in storage in South Africa. The
war office. however. has issued strict
order to volunteers that the 80 rounds
of Mark W. given them must be used
in practice at home.
