There is no doubt that the Boers have beew largely reinforced. It is suppoeed by the Free Staters who only recently pro- fessed to yield and give up some of their firearms that the Boer movements in force strongly indicate their purpose to barass Lord Roberts in the hope of bampering any attemp: to move northward. General French ie still at Watervaaiaod an in« fantry brigade is holding Bushman’s Kop at Springfontein. possible attempts to cut the railway line. A force of Boers has reached Wepener, forty-five miles south of Nchu, and is attacking General Brabant’a columo. While the Boers are thus pushing southward, General Clements’ division, comprising 6000 men, has moved steadily perth and is now encamped 70 ‘miles be~ yond Bloemfontein. The fact that Lord Roberts has allowed him to gothis far north conveys the im- pression that if the Boers have been in the neighborhood of Paardeberg they have since retired. DR. JAMESON ILL.
