ADVANCE OF BUTLER.
BOERS HAVE STuBBORNLY CON.
TESTED THE GROUND.
British Lose Heavily i'm a Sixty Hours
Battle with the Strongly Intrenched
Burghers-Anxiety in England Has
Been at an Extreme Tension.

Keen anxiety prevailed throughout
England on Wednesday for news of Gen.
Warren's night attack on Splon kop,
which Gen. Butler n dispatch late
Tuesday night said was meditated. All
night long the war office in London was
brilliantly lit up and many officials were
on hand awaiting news of the daring step
that Butler had ordered Early morn
ing brought groups of people to the war
office, and as the day advanced they
came in crowds. Not line, however,
came from Butler. Noon went by and
sides increased.
Gen. Buffers dispatch announcing that
Warren was to make night attack with
the bayonet, one of the most hazardous
moves of modern warfare, was taken to
indicate that his fanking movement
which Warren undertook, had slgnally
failed. Butler apparently had been fore
ed to return to the tactics which have
thus far proved unsuccessful-tha is
frontal attack on fortified enemy. The
only change was that the attack was to
be made at night. Methuen tried this at
Magersfontein, but the Beers were awake
and it resulted in fearful losses in the
Highland brigade, which had been sent
to do the work. Remembering this, it
can easily be seen with what fear and
anxiety the English people awaited the
result of Buffers movements.
According to official dispatches received
from the Boer lager near Colenso 10000
British made simultaneous attack Sat
