We are clearly in for another little war in Zululand,

Dinizulu having been joined by the chiefs on the coast, by -numbers of Zulus from Natal, and, it is reported, by some fifteen white men. He has altogether some 4,000 men in the north-west corner of Zululand. There are rumours that other powatful tribes, the Usutus and Swazis in particular, will also join him ; but these reports are discredited, except as regards the Usutus. Sir A. Havelock has at his disposal about 1,300 infantry and 430 cavalry, and the General in command is only -waiting for a native contingent to advance and attack Dini- -min, who, says Lord Knutsford, must be put down. He has -apparently risen without any special grievance, but from a general idea that the power of the British is on the wane.
