' While the reixirts of the condition of Cape Colony ar rejrardul as some what uhnecessarilvfialarming, there is little disposition t0take a. to roseate view of : tlie: gemfai jo'tnatlon. .The constant disat-ti to South Africa of reinforcing drafts, Jind the daily fights at points wide apart, show Hurt the war In not over. and. while the state ment that Lord Rotierts has demauded 2O.0O0 fresh troops is Incorrect.-It is a fact that he-has asked for HOOO men to rerilace the battalion wliowe wastage iacaiKU-itates them from duty at the front.
