The enemy possesses thrice’ as many battal- ions in front as we.” When thé tdad, which we heard they are making by way of Partat and Twieawauk over Devi Dagh range, is completed, ‘they will be able to invest: us entirely, which will prevent reinforcements or supplies reaching us from the outside, That accomplished, a steady bombardment will commence. I anticipate capture, or captivation of, the town. before this day month.
