LOXDO*, Nov. 21. — T h e Standard publishes the follqwing from Lady- smith. dated Sunday, November 19: "The arrival of the* relief column at Estcourt has completely modified the plsns of the enemy, and Gen. Joubert hss moved to the south in an effort to prevent the junction of the two Brit- ish forcea** ESTCOURT. Nov. 2L—Msj. Bethun's patrols hsve located the enemy on the northwest, about ten miles off. The Boers would not be drawn. Fighting is reported at the Mool river. The Boers sre doing more looting than fighting snd all their parties south of Ladysmith are foraging on the farms. Advices from Ladysmith tell of bril- liant service stories with comparative- ly slight loss on our side and heavy slaughter of the enemy. Ladysmith Is full of wounded and captured. Boers. It is reported that Tn~the 9^Titing on November 9 the enemy lost 300 killed and 500 captured. The Boers are trying hard to infln- fluence and conciliate the native Kaf- from Estcourt Indicate that there was nothing more than a desultory can- nonade. Probably the rumor of a seri- ous engagement grew out of the fact that the Boers threw a few harmless shells late Tuesday night, leading to the supposition that an attack was imminent. Nothing, however, hsp- pened Wednesday. Beyond the fact that the Boers sre daily receiving fresh reinforcements snd supplies, there is practically noth- ing new from the front. The Boer in- vasion of Cape Colony continues stead- ily and rapidly. There are 1,800 Iloers at Colesberg, ahd news has resched East London that Ladygrey, near Aliwal. north, has been deserted by the British and is now in the hands of the enemy. A Pretoria dispatch announces the arrival there among the prisoners of Maj. Ilaldan, Lieut Brochie and Lieut. Hallwey. It also declares that the British on Sunday made two unsuc- cessful attempts to oust the Rusten- burg commando from a position near Mafeking, and that severe fighting took place. Gen. Joubert is evidently moving south to prevent if possible the junc- tion of the British relieving force with the forces at Estcourt and Ladysmith, while on the Orange river border the Boers "are believed to be concentrating at Donkerpoort to oppose Oen. Bul- ler's advance. It is said 6,000 Boers have already laagered at Donker-
