"Tbe activity the Boeie diepisy st
points sepsrsted by hundreds of
miles, their ability to invest several
towns, their readiness to offer battle
at Belmont and again at Gras Pan,
their widespread operations south of
Orange river and their bold and
offensive action in Natal, seem to
indicate numbers far in excess of our
estimation It is clear that the mili?
tary requirements were at frot great

division ought immediately to be
prepared for debarkation."
This, coming from the hitherto
