In di'ed, this iH the version that is beginning to be believed, as it held to be imjKif-Mblo that the news of heavy fighting ; brought by Kallirn in such circumstantial detail can be wholly groundlcis. If this be ho, it is ominous, for there could be no ground for concealing favorable news. It cannot bo long, however,' before a change occurs, General Uuller'a forces will wKn arrive at Durban and will probably begin the advance for the relief of Ladysmith about November 15.
