A Warm "Winter Day. Yesterday was one of the warmest days of the winter.

Trenty Signed— We Obtniif Reduc- tion on Cottonseed-Oil. WASHINGTON. February S.-Special Plenipotentiary Kasson, for tho United States, and Baron Fava, the Italian Am- bassador, for his government, at the State Department, to-day, signed "a reci- procity arrangement under the third sec- tion of the Dingley act. This arrange- ment does not require the action of the Senate, but it does need the ratification of the Italian Chambers. Until tLat has been attained it is deemed well to with- hold the text of the agreement from pub- lication. It is stated, however, that the United States gains a considerable reduc- tion on cottonseed-oil, of which Italy is a heavy consumer, and other staples, while Italy,in return, secures the abate- ment of duties on still wines, argots, and works of art. permitted by the third sec- tion of the tariff act. Second Day of \u25a0 tlie Battle of Vatil Ivrnntz. r LONDON,: February o.—The Daily Tel- egraph has received the "following dis- patch, dated Tuesday, February 6th, from Spearman's Camp: . "This is the second day of the battle, and the fighting has been fiercer than it was yesterday. At dawn «ie Boers.-be- gan the action by shelling our bivouac with their 'Long Tom' and pompon guns from Doornv Kloof. Their - G-inch shells fell near the -spot where General Buller and his staff were;watching tho engage- ment. . One shell burst amiqVa squadron of the Thirteenth Hussars, but not a soul was touched. "Our guns- from Z warts. Kop and on the plain soon silenced the enemy's artil- lery,- but repeatedly the Boers brought back their guns; popped them iia^o work over tho hills, fired a few rounds, and then again changed their position. WARM TIME FOR LYTTLETOiN. / . "During the morning our gunners suc- ceeded in blowing up the enemy's ammu- nition wagon upon Dporm Kloof. Gene- ral Lyttleton's brigade was shot at from three sides, and had a warm time upon Vaal Krantz. \u25a0'\u25a0 "Desperate' efforts v were made by- -the Boers to recover the smoking hill. The Durham LightInfantry, the King's Royal Rifles, and the Scottish Rifles gallantly charged, and cleared the position. Gene- ral Hildyard's brigade relieved General Lyttleton's brigade toward sunset. _/: BOER LOSS HEAVY. "Fighting continued until 9. Several prisoners have been taken. They declare that ' the Boers yesterday lost heavily. The enemy suffered severely to-day"". ItIs reported that among their dead in the trenches armed Kaffirs were found.'.'

Turning, from the transcendent interest in Ladysmith, 'the: whole war area, pre- sents a scene of important activity. The Boer attack on General Gatacre's forces, reported February 7th, failed, . the artil- lery, of .the Burghers, after shelling, the camp, retiring upon' the arrival of British reinforcements. The affair : scarcely warrants. being called a "skirmish. The British casualties were .one man killed and four men wounded. The latest ad- vices. from Sterkstrom announco that Gen- eral Gatacre's cavalry is in pursuit of the Boers. ' . \u25a0'-. Whilo nothing has resulted from this affair, it indicates that' the Burghers are fully alive to the importance of the-con- centration, which is on -the verge of tak- ing place, between the forces 'of Generals Gatacre, Kelly-Kenny, and- French,: and they do,not hesitate to take tho aggres- sive against established positions in an attempt to thwart it, though it is be- lieved ' that d sufficiently' large ; body of troops wiirsoon' be /massed at Colesburg to/ensuro the unopposed advance of tho invading army, when it is ready to start. That it is not prepared for this move. at present, and. thatiall this activity is mere- ly preliminary to what is known as "Field-Marshal Lord Roberts's main movement," is -evidenced by a dispatch from Cape Town, under date of February 7th, announcing that the transportation department was advertising for oxen and drivers.' Without these it would be hope- less to carry on the invasion, and it must be a month before they are ready.: ;, Another "preliminary '\u25a0\u25a0 is that . General ' Roberts has only just sanctioned the for- mation . of. tho new;; Colonial Yeomanry, consisting of a troop of 100 men. fpr each district of the Colony, to protect the loyal farmers. This force will be officer- ed" from among , the; local- yeomen. •' . METIIUEN TO ADVANCE? Opinion is divided as to whether Field- Marshai Lord Roberts and General Kitch- ener, have, gone to the Modder river or to Sterkstrom: General- Mac Donald's": ac- tivity in the former locality, combined with the; belief that the Colesberg mov.e- inent is to draw off a portion of the Free State force, has given rise to the hope that General Methuen will shortly be en- abled to make a successful attack, re- sulting in the relief of Kimberley, while tho gradually-thinning forces surround-, ing Mafeking will altogether melt away. Sir John Gordon. SPrigg, the former Premier of Capo Colony, has cabled to Mr. Chamberlain, the Colonial Secretary, in' behalf of the imperialists' of Cape Colony, . congratulating him on the.gov r ernment's overwhelming majority in the House of Commons, and; declaring that the government's ' "policy, if steadfastly pursued, will secure to South Africa, un- der British supremacy, permanent pros- perity."

Trenty Signed— We Obtniif Reduc-tion on Cottonseed-Oil.

WASHINGTON. February S.-SpecialPlenipotentiary Kasson, for tho UnitedStates, and Baron Fava, the Italian Am-bassador, for his government, at theState Department, to-day, signed "a reci-procity arrangement under the third sec-tion of the Dingley act. This arrange-ment does not require the action of theSenate, but it does need the ratificationof the Italian Chambers. Until tLat hasbeen attained it is deemed well to with-hold the text of the agreement from pub-lication. It is stated, however, that theUnited States gains a considerable reduc-tion on cottonseed-oil, of which Italy isa heavy consumer, and other staples,

while Italy,in return, secures the abate-ment of duties on still wines, argots, andworks of art. permitted by the third sec-tion of the tariff act.

Second Day of \u25a0 tlie Battle of VatilIvrnntz. r

LONDON,:February o.—The Daily Tel-egraph has received the "following dis-

patch, dated Tuesday, February 6th, fromSpearman's Camp: .

"This is the second day of the battle,

and the fighting has been fiercer than it

was yesterday. At dawn «ie Boers.-be-gan the action by shelling our bivouac

with their 'Long Tom' and pompon guns

from Doornv Kloof. Their - G-inch shellsfell near the -spot where General Bullerand his staff were;watching tho engage-ment. .One shell burst amiqVa squadron

of the Thirteenth Hussars, but not a soulwas touched.

"Our guns- from Zwarts. Kop and onthe plain soon silenced the enemy's artil-lery,- but repeatedly the Boers brought

back their guns; popped them iia^o workover tho hills, fired a few rounds, andthen again changed their position.

WARM TIME FOR LYTTLETOiN. /. "During the morning our gunners suc-ceeded in blowing up the enemy's ammu-nition wagon upon Dporm Kloof. Gene-ral Lyttleton's brigade was shot at fromthree sides, and had a warm time uponVaal Krantz.\u25a0'\u25a0 "Desperate' efforts v were made by- -theBoers to recover the smoking hill. TheDurham LightInfantry, the King's RoyalRifles, and the Scottish Rifles gallantlycharged, and cleared the position. Gene-ral Hildyard's brigade relieved GeneralLyttleton's brigade toward sunset. _/:

BOER LOSS HEAVY."Fighting continued until 9. Several

prisoners have been taken. They declarethat

'the Boers yesterday lost heavily.

The enemy suffered severely to-day"". ItIsreported that among their dead in thetrenches armed Kaffirs were found.'.'

OONCENTRATION AT COLESBERG.Turning, from the transcendent interest

in Ladysmith, 'the: whole war area, pre-sents a scene of important activity. TheBoer attack on General Gatacre's forces,reported February 7th, failed, .the artil-lery, of .the Burghers, after shelling, thecamp, retiring upon' the arrival of Britishreinforcements. The affair : scarcely

warrants. being called a "skirmish. TheBritish casualties were .one man killed

and four men wounded. The latest ad-vices. from Sterkstrom announco that Gen-eral Gatacre's cavalry is in pursuit of theBoers.

' . \u25a0'-.Whilo nothing has resulted from this

affair, it indicates that' the Burghers arefully alive to the importance of the-con-centration, which is on -the verge of tak-ing place, between the forces 'of GeneralsGatacre, Kelly-Kenny, and- French,: andthey do,not hesitate to take tho aggres-

sive against established positions in anattempt to thwart it, though it is be-

lieved'that d sufficiently' large ;body of

troops wiirsoon' be /massed at Colesburg

to/ensuro the unopposed advance of thoinvading army, when it is ready to start.

That itis not prepared for this move. atpresent, and. thatiall this activity is mere-ly preliminary to what is known as"Field-Marshal Lord Roberts's mainmovement," is -evidenced by a dispatch

from Cape Town, under date of February7th, announcing that the transportationdepartment was advertising for oxen anddrivers.' Without these itwould be hope-

less to carry on the invasion, and it must

be a month before they are ready.:;, Another "preliminary '\u25a0\u25a0 is that . General

'

Roberts has only just sanctioned the for-

mation .of. tho new;;Colonial Yeomanry,consisting of a troop of 100 men. fpr eachdistrict of the Colony, to protect theloyal farmers. This force will be officer-ed" from among ,the; local- yeomen. •'

. METIIUEN TO ADVANCE?Opinion is divided as to whether Field-

Marshai Lord Roberts and General Kitch-ener, have, gone to the Modder river or toSterkstrom: General- MacDonald's": ac-tivity in the former locality, combinedwith the; belief that the Colesberg mov.e-inent is to draw off a portion of the FreeState force, has given rise to the hopethat General Methuen willshortly be en-abled to make a successful attack, re-sulting in the relief of Kimberley, whiletho gradually-thinning forces surround-,ing Mafeking will altogether melt away.

Sir John Gordon. SPrigg, the formerPremier of Capo Colony, has cabled toMr. Chamberlain, the Colonial Secretary,

in' behalf of the imperialists' of CapeColony,. congratulating him on the.govrernment's overwhelming majority in theHouse of Commons, and; declaring thatthe government's

'"policy, if steadfastly

pursued, will secure to South Africa, un-der British supremacy, permanent pros-perity."
