The 'British bave invaded the Orange Free Stata in an attempt te flsuk the lef t of uf Commandant Cronje's force at, Magersfontain. Thay have -gained possession of tour driftts, by wbich the Riet snd Modder rivers were crossed, aud have capturaid fiva Boer laagers wtû, their supplies, tio'ugb there is no official indication of th» eamount of, booty. ý t e difficult to f ollow the move-' ment clearly liere, oinig te the im-- perfect condition of the maps, but it seesus that General Frencb's rapi:d operation not only eut off the Boers' communication with Jacobsdal, but barred thair direct route to Bloem- fontein, while at the samne time expos- ing the enerny to a flank attack on the road to, Beshof., Such, at any rate, is the view of the situation tak-, en here. ýt is aasumed that Gan. Methueni stili holIds a position south cof Msgerrs- foutein, and it ia regarded as prob- able that Gen.

It sdds about 10,000 meeu to Gen. iRoberts' army which la now, ineauding the seventb division, estimated to number some- thing like 50,000 troopa.
