London, March 20.?Persistent ^
rumors are circulating that tho
i
Boers are fearing to be inter
cepted by a force sent up b}' (
Roberts, and have abandoned tho
'
siege of Mafeking and retreated .
to Pretoria. It is certain that |
Mateking must he relieved short ^
ly, and that if the Boers maintain ^
their investment that they are in
danger of annihilation. The war
office makes an announcement of
Mafeking's safety, but declares
its belief that the position of the
besieged forces is satisfactory.
TO PACIFY.
London, March 20.?The gov
ernment's plan to pacify South
Africa is to incaease the number
of British subjects there. Tho '
Dutch present a great majority.
Every effort will be made to
induce reservists and time ex
ported men with volunteers and (
colonials from abroad to settle in
South Africa as soon as the war
is over. Half a section of land
will be given to each, provided j
he will occupy it ten years.

Illness of a Noted Spy.
Richmond, Va . March 21.?
Miss Elizabeth Van Lew, whose
loyalty to the Union cause during
the civil war attracted the atten
tion of Gen Grant, is quite ill
here. The devotion of Miss Van
Lew to the Federal soldiers and
the aid rendered the cause
iuced Gen. Grant, when he be
same ['resident, to appoint Miss
Van Lew the postmistress of the
famous Capital ot the Confederacy.
This lady not only rendered
valual/>lA?s8istance to the Federal
officers who tunnelled their way
out of old Libby prison here, but
kept General Grant informed of
many important movements in
Richmond during the war. For
this the commander in chief re
paid her, when he was made I'res

A VERY INTERESTING RUMOR.
Why the Acquisition of This Line
Would be Valuable to the New
Greater Seaboard System.
Tho State. 1st.
The Florence Times thus elab
orates the rumor, presented in
The State of Sunday, that the
South Carolina and Georgia Extension
liailroad company, which
owns the old Three C's road, was
making arrangements with the
Seaboard Air Line whereby the
trains of the former will run
from Marion, N. C., into Colutn
bia over the Seaboard's new line :
"It is a fact that the Extension
company has been trying to unload
the rest ot their property on
some other concern ever since
the main stem of the South Carolina
and Geargiaroad was sold to
the Southern. The Southern is
barred from purchasing the rest
of the property by reason of the
constitutional provision turbid
ding competing lines to absorb
each other.
"It was reported that the At
lantic Coast Line had bought the
road from Camden to Marion and
would operate it in connection
with Mr. Wilson's road from
Srsmter. ThiR report .-.eeuas to be
ill founded and now the report
that the Seaboard will operate
that line makes it look probable
that it will fall heir to the Three
C's property, as that company is
very anxious to get across the
Hlue Ktdgo in the most practical
way. The line from Marion, N.
C.. to Columbia would not be
very direct, but it would be about,
as short as the present lines ana
would be direct enough for an
active competitor. This line
would touch the Seaboard at both
ends and would be a more valua
ble annex to that system than to
any other.
"There aro also strong reasons
for believing that the Seaboard
is the real ow ner of the Georgetown
and Western road, and that
having acquired that line they
will not be so anxious to have a
line through from Georgetown to
Marion or to Florence, that the
extension will be of the George
town and Western road from
Lanes to Columbia, which would
give them a short line from the
mountains to the sea. (f any
