January reti Since weltleg to you on Christmas Day, there has not been a battle of any consequence. Skirmishes between scouting parties constantly take place ; and a wondrous story is told of the doings of the "Frontler Hunters, about 4,000 of to this town. whom bave come from the north under the leadership of the celebrated Has Chang-shus, They are well mounted, well

armed, and RTC excellent machemen, and are reported BAYE attacked the Japanese last week at night time, and to have fold about a thousand of them with very litle loss to themselves. Very little credence can be attached to this, but there is no doubt if theas men act as they propose to do, viz, keep out of sight of the enemy in darllent And worry them a night, they may be very troublesume to the invaders.
