ACROSS THE TUGELA.

BULLER’S ARMY ADVANCES TOWARD LADYSMITH. The General loanee an Addreoa to Hie Men Haying There Conld be No Turning Back—The First Skirmish la Won by the British. Gen. Buller’s successful effort to get his army across the Tugela river evidently was planned with care. The British generals seem to have concealed the exact nature of their movements from their enemy, one brigade in the center of the position crossing with the aid of artillery fire at Potgieter’s ford, while another, five miles to the left, crossed a tew hours later and secured a good position on the enemy’s flank. Whether or not, snys a correspondent, the Boers have been anticipating such a movement and practically preparing to yield to Buller’s advance remains to be determined. It does not appear that they made the show of resistance which they had been expected to make, or that they were on the alert, as, presumably, they would have been in ease of a stubborn purpose to resist to the utmost the crossing of the Tugela. While this advance carries the British forces past one more obstacle on the way to Ladysmith it also enables the Boers to put themselves in a position much stronger strategically. Bo long as they held the Tugela they were forced to stretch out their line along the river for many miles. Their force was thus not only weakened, but exposed to Afik attacks. It seems likely that befre giving up this position they had prepared themselves to make a much more effective resistance under more favorable conditions. By concentrating at a point nearer Ladysmith they would have not only the advantages of a choice of positions in a familiar country, but of having their enemy in a place from which it would be extremely difficult to make an orderly retreat. A watchful army free to take its choice of positions for resisting an invading force has a signal advantage over an advancing army which, whatever path it chooses, is bound down to the necessity of reaching a definite known objective—in this case Ladysmith. The Boers, apparently are not likely to be outflanked easily in this region. On the other hand, should they succeed in repulsing Buller, they could make his position on their own side of a stream which is unfordable save at' a few points extremely awkward. Another correspondent says that Gen. Buller himself has made his headquarters in a farm house tielonging to Martinius Pretorius, and located supposedly in the neighborhood of Spearman’s farm. He issued an address to his men telling them that they were going to relieve their comrades at Ladysmith and that there could be no turning back. It is not exactly known the number of (troops with Buller, as about 5,000 of his men remain unaccounted for. However, it is believed that his total force now amounts to 30,000 men, with eight field batteries, divided into three or four brigades. Gen. Warren, with about 8,000 men, is reported to lie well lodged five miles back from the river at Sproenkop. He has thrown a few shells at the Boers, but has received no reply, the Boers being apparently too busy intrenching and preparing to give Warren a warm time when he attempts the advance in the direction of Ladysmith. Gen. Lyttleton’s force of probably 10,000 men and a majority of the guns is at Potgieter’s drift bombarding the enemy. Lord Dundonald’s cavalry' is supposed to be on a reconuoissance for the purpose of cutting the Boer linys of communication, a task of great difficulty, as it requires an advance as far as Blaan bank. The first skirmish between the British and the Boers, preliminary to the impending struggle north of the Tugela. was reported Friday. The action resulted in a victory for the British.

HER EYELIDS SAVED HER.

A Supposed Dead Woman’s Kscape from Burial Alive. Mrs. Christina Ilirth of East St. Louis narrowly escaped burial alive. She had been ill three months find Monday mooi ing of last week apparently expired, at the county hospital. The doctor came and felt her pulse and applied other tests and pronounced her dead. The county undertaker was called, the body was taken to the dead room and laid out on a cooling board. Cloths saturated with bleaching fluid were placed over the face and the body. The shrdtid and clothing in which she was to be buried were prepared. While busy with his preparations toward embalming, the undertaker was startled by a noise proceeding from the direction of the corpse. He glanced hastily, but there was no motion in the white-sheeted figure. When he came to remove the sheet from tne face, however, he noticed that one of the weights had fallen off an eyelid. In replacing it>he thought that he detected a slight quiver in the eyelids, but, attributing it to his imagination, went about his preparations. Again the noise and the fallen weight. This time the quiver in the eye was more pronounced. There was no heart motion or breathing that he could detect, and he was about to inject the fluid when again he noticed the quiver, and then, to be thoroughly satisfied, he applied the most powerful test of life known to undertakers. There was an unmistakable though faint'indication of life in response. Assistance was summoned, the partially embalmed woman removed to a bed and restoratives were applied by the doctors. She was able, after several hours, to speak in a whisper and move her muscles, but the weakness paused by her illness and the terrible ordeal through which she had passed told heavily upon her. and she could make no statement as to her experiences while in a trance.

Story of the Yazoo Fraud.

One of the most gigantic trusts ever formed on this continent was in the early days of the republic, back in 1795. Several gentlemen organized themselves Into a company for the purpose of purchasing from the State of Georgia her unclaimed western territory, extending from the Mississippi on the west to the Atlantic on the east and from the thirty-first degree of latitude north of the equator on the south to the southern boundary of Tennessee on the north, Including what now constitutes the territory of Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi. This vast territory was purchased for $500,000 and' this was the commencement of the famous “Yazoo fraud,” about which so much was said and written. The bill authorizing the purchase and sale passed the Georgia Legislature on Jan. 9,1795, and it is said that members were paid all the way from eight negroes to 200,000 acres of land to vote for it. Corruption by bribery was open. Great indignation spread throughout the State and upon the assembling of the Legislature one year later an act was passed declaring that the said resurped act was null and void; that the records relating to the same be burned in order that no trace of so unconstitutional. vile and fraudulent a transaction should remain public. ’’The infamous records were placed in one vast heap.” said the Senator, “and a sun glass was used to set it on fire, that It might be said that the fire that destroyed it was from heaven. This is the first and only instance in the history of the country where a legislative body personally superintended the destruction by fire of its previous records of corrupt and obnoxious laws. 1 regret to say that if the people of this day should be moved by the same spirit this continent would be a flame of fire from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the Gulf of Mexico to the confines of the British empire?*—St. Paul Globe.
