been roceeding _vorthward for days.On Monday some of these countermarched, and the herds got into an inextricable muddle, the Boers not knowing which way to turn.\u2019 Tae \u2018problamiations of Lord Roberts appear to have little effect upon the inhabitants of the invaded districts, Every farm is found deserted \u201c except by the women and children.Al) the (men are away fighting.Some exasperation is expressed at the ease with which the Boers escape with their transports \u2018before the very eyes of the British.When the British entered Smaldeel the Boor ox-wagons.coolly cut-spanned only five: miles away.aR Lord Roberts is described as : \u201crightly unwilling to sacrifice hia horses tor the sake of a comparatively minor advan- \u2018tage.\u2019 Nevertheless, the

else catable has gone.In-' sufficient food, wet trenches and cold nights are deadly to the health of the p garrison.A Mafeking correspondent of the Times, who also emphasizes\u201d the extreme gravity ot the situation, says: \u201cIt is impoastble to ignore the fatal significance of Colonel Baden-Powell\u2019s reference to the hardships endured by -he women and children, among whom many deaths have already occurred.\u201cThe commissariat is holding a stock of food in reserve for use-in the direst, extremity.\u2019 : + Lord Roberts.has commnted to penal servitude for life the sentence of 8

at.Mateking.The verdict |! of the court-martial was torwarded to Tord Roberts with a recommendation to mercy from Colonel Baden-Powell.er MASONIC.On the 24th inst., an event of spe: cial interest to

descend to his breakfast room or his study, with all its appointments fresh from the broom and shining in their brightness of im tal and glass, So whatever the gloom ofthe domestic prospect his street helps hi to feel good.The beauty of the stat- \u2018uary, of the public buildings, is a meang ito the same end.For nothing the poor: est of poor devils may see the glorioug br nzes in the terrace garden of the T ul- leties, the outdoor figures of the Luxembourg, the great horses of the Plaée de la \u2018Concorde, the magnificent compositions lof the arch.The very lamppost that will light his
