Flooded Rivers and Presence of Troops Render a Move ImpjMibte. LONDON. Sept. S5- A dispatch to the Times from Newcastle. Natal, says: The moment for a serious Invasion of Natal. If such an idea has been In Com mandan t-General Botha's mind, has passed. Both th Buffalo and Tugla rivers are In flood, while General Lyttle ton'a troops are sufficient to deal with the enemy should he elect to cross the border. It is thought probable that Botha' plan of seeming: to threaten Xstal was In order to keep the minds of the Burghers occupied and so divert their attention from the expiration of the term of grace allowed by lorJ Kitchener's latest proclamation. The correspondent of the Times at Cape Town says the Chamber of Com merce there has discussed the advisabil ity of placing the entire Cane Penin sula under mar.lal law. The members decided that they were ready to sub mit to the "Inconvenience which such an attempt would entail, if it were en tirely fir the successful ending of the war. They took no definite action, how ever. ' ACTIVITY OP THE BOERS. NEW YORK, Sep:. 25.
