Private tolegrams from Town and Mardon, cor - m the official dis- thoritiss ake patitc-stricken, and that Sainuel Kruzer hag been proclaimed govartior of deiberg.

Since that date itappears that a ma- jority of the Basutos, in whose loyalty the government had previously con- fided, have joined the rebels, if far- ther news does not prove that the in- tolligonce his Geen exagzerated. Should the eending of troops from patches, and stato that the solonial ay- | 9 England be really necessary, the home government will be placed in a.most embarrassing position. For the hour the disaster in South Africa takes the place, 2s & topic in the cluts, of the mudadled etate of affairs in Jreland. CLADSTONE'S PERFLE¥1TY. £t Dispaleb toThe Bee. Loxvow, December 21—1 &, m.— The news from South Africa has pro- duced profound excitement, almost amounting to consternation on_the part of the government. Mer. Gla stone and the Earl Kimberly, secre- tary of Btate for the colpnies, are now arranging a confereace with the Duke of Cambridge, commander-in-chief of the army, aud with the wac office re- garding the situation, It is probable that & cabinet council to discuss it willbo teld immediately, Owag to the number of troops alteady seat to Irelaud, the rearrangement of the military £0 23 to_mvet the demand from tho cape, will cause uneasine:s in conservative circles. It is caus- tically ssid that there is evidently ac. understauding batween the Basutos and the land league, the former ha ing undertaken to producs a diversion in favor ot Parnell and his compatri- ots. What the effect will be upon England, should another African war break out, a3 scems Jikely at the pres- ent time, it is not easy to foresee. VICTORIOUS BOEES. Later intell' gance of the cdpture of Heidelborg by the Boers, states that the sffair 18 quite as serious s pro- viously reprepresented. An official diepatch from Pietermoritzburg to the colonial authorities of Cape Colony say that on Sunday 5,000 Boers ap. peared and_surrounded Heidelbery and demanded the delivery of the place into their hands, Resistance belug nseless, the demand was acceded to, and the town given up. The Boers proceeded at once to_establish & republic, and procluimed Paul Krue- ger president and Joubert_command- ant. No collision occatred, mor was any violence omployed. Communica- tion with Pretoria is cot off by the Boers. Sir George Colley is_sending up all availablo troope, but it is be- iieved that the chances of retaking Heidelberg are slight until troops ar- rive from Engla.d. There is no doubt that Eagland's inflaence in the Transvaal 1s greatly shaken by this CABLECRAMS. Bpecia Dispatches to Tus Bas, The London Standard of Monday ‘morning eaid that no sericus attention need bo paid to Mr. King's importi- nent notice of his motion in the Unitod States congress proposing a voto of sympethy for Ireland, and that it ia not worth while even to resent the ldicrous presumption of sach meddlesome proposal, upon which no American _statesman of Secratary Evarts’ rark an¢ quality would dream of acting.
