THE DEFEAT AT COLESBURG. London, Fob. 14. Tho news of tho day is tho enforced retirement of tho British from tho Colesburg district un der heavy Boer pressure, and probably after brisk fighting.

Military ob servers do not regard this as mora than a menace. Nevertheless, tlte news pro duces an unpleasant impression hero. General French had maneuvered tho Boers out out of Rensberg in December. January 1, it was reported that ho could tako Colesborg in two days with ro-en-forccments. Theso wero sent, but tho Boers wcro also rc-cnforccd. Slnco then tho British lines havo been ex tended cast and west, eg that at tho opening of this weok thoy constituted a great horseshoo, 25 miles in length. Tho lines wcro not continuous, but all tho strong positions wero hold. General French, when ho joined Gen oral Roberta, took most ot his cavalry. Geno-al Clements was left with tho in fantry to hold tho Boers in check, but Commander Delaney, with a doublo turning movement, lias compelled tho British to conccntrato at Rensberg, be sides threatening Roberts' communica tlons. Tho Boer mastery of tho district lias caused a spread ot tho insurrection, but this, no doubt, will bo promptly suppressed, as largo British forces aro avallublo not far away. Moods Check liiitish .
