of the Opposing Force,

| The preparations on both sides indicate | that in the struggle between the British

aod the Boers that now appears inevitable, the principal fighting will take place in and near the angle of territory in Natal that lies between the Drakensberg Moun- tains and the Buffalo River, It is between the range of mountains and the river that the railwayfrom Durban on the coast running through Pietermaritz and Lady- Smith passes into the Transvaal over the familar battle grounds of the Ingago and Laing’s Nek, which forms the avenue aod gateway into the Boer territory. It is @ serious disadvantage to the Boers from 8 military point of view that these points as weil as Majuba Hill should be in British territory, as the attempt to seize them for their own protection would constitute sn act of war and precipitate the conflict. Toey, therefore, are making suc ha dis- position of their forces wi ll enable them to keep back the Briush advance in froni while threatening its flanks and communi-

crude and pa:riarchal, but with a decidedly | good field artillery cfficered by Europe-

Dutch army officers, aud the Boer’s army

With the exception of the troops de- tailed to defend Pretoria and occupy Johannesburg fort, the whole of the Boer forces are mounted, and are reckoned at 35.000 men. This estimate has been formed from the number of rifles issued to

Colley and bis troops, who only es caped aonibilation by a oight march. leaving the wounded benoind.

‘The opinion of the Boer officers is that if the British employ less than 80,000 men they are safe.
