But both from Lady-_ smith and Kimberly came cheerful messages that they could hold out yet; longer. And so the first month of the new year closed with no substantial new advance. On February 7th Gen. Buller made by the Springfield route, crossing _at 'n ford to the eastward of Potgietefs. After some days hard, fighting this attempt was abandoned and he -re-` turned with his forces to Chieveley. Here he renewed the attack,while stirring events were developing on the western border. Bya swift and strong adva.nee~ the Boer position on the Modder River was penetrated, Jacobsdal occupied, and on the 15th Gen. French reached Kim- berly. Gronje was forcedpto retreat from Magersffmtein, was pursued, overtaken and surrounded at Koedoes ‘where he has since been fighting like _a at bay. In the meantime Gen. Buller has Colenso and is slowly pushing his way toward Ladysmith. Such are in outline some of the salient features of the war, which now, under the able direction of Lord Roberts has changed its every aspect.
