Lonpox, Dec. 2.~-There is a complete shecsce of recent pews from the seat of war; and even the list of casualties suf- fered by the British in last Tuesday’s fight at Modder River has not yet been re- ceived. This causes considerable public im patience,

It is believed that Lord Methuen has been reinforced by a half batallion of Highlandere ; and the Daily News says a regimeot of cavalry and a battery of ar- tilery also.

The silence concerning his force sug- gests the possibility of a

HOSTiLE MOVEMENT.

in his rear.

Notbing regarding the forward move- ment in Nata! has been received later than Nov. 28th, when, it seems,Boers held both the railway and waggon bridges at Colenso aud were able to destroy when they wished.

The British were then still at Frere. No movement of General Gatacre’s division has been reported.

BOERS BEFORE MAFEKING.

Loxpox, Dec. 2 —The Times corres; ! pondent at Mafeking, in a despatch dated November 20th, says: Ths Boers despair of intimidating Mafeking.

Reports of success in the Natal move- ler ment and on this froutier were received.

Loxpox, Dec. 2.—Generai Sir Charles Manefield Clarke will command the New Sixth Division, destined for service in South Africa. Loxpon, Dec. 2.—While the Queen has received an assurance from Lord Methuen early that the wounded were doing well the casuality list was held back, owing to defective cable facilities ; hour after hour it was generally understood to be in pos- session of the War Office late in tne even~ ing, but it required cateful checking of t the names. The impression prevailed } there that losees would not be so severe |} as had been apprehend ed. It is supposed that the Natal advance | has been delayed by the necessity of getting | the suppliee to Pietermaritzburg. But not a word emanates from auy of the vari-

ous commands.

HOW THE KHALIFA DIED.

Carro, Dec. 2.—Officers from the Sou- dan who have arrived bere say that when Gen. Wingate’s force overtook the Khalifa latter tried to outflank the Anglo-Egyp- tians, but failed,

Secing that his position was hopeless the Kbalifa told his Emirs to stay with him anddie. He then spread «# sheep~ skin on the ground and eat down on it with his Emirs on either side.

Afier the engagement the Khalifa was found shot through the head, li-art, arms and legs, and the Emirs were lying dead beside him.

The members of his body-guard were all dead in rroat of them.

Gen. Wirgate’s force swept over them without recogsiziug the Khalifa and his Emirs, but thev were identified al
