Loxos, 30th November, 1800. THE WAR-NATAL General Bullor wires from Maritzburg, 2th November, that a telegraphist, who left Ladysmith on the night of the 25th Nov., had reached Woonar, and tele geopted from there that the garrison at adysmith had repalset the Boers on the 9th November with great loss, the British Jusses being very small. Only eight of the garrison had been killed by sholis during the siege, and in all the battles only 100 had been killed and wounded. No attempt to attack Ladysmith had been made since 9th November.
