However, whatever may be the result. there is no room for doubt that an advance oi the British iorcea will be made into Zululand. and that at no distant date. The indiscriminate shedding of blood in that benighted country continues. as we hear that at a recent meeting held at the King's Kraal. a resolution was come to for the entire destruction of three lrraals at people.
