PROSPECTS OF THE ALLIES.
NEVER SO FAVOURABLE. GERMANY ON THE DEFENCE. . London, Thursday. An eye-witness with the British headquarters reports that an officer and twenty five men in the British right centre, attacking a trench on Sunday evening, surprised the sentries and bayoneted twenty. Our casualties were three.
The situation at the Now Year was more favourable than at any time aince the outset of the war.
The British force has swelled into a great and steadily-increasing army, inured to war and able to look back on a record of hard fighting such as had seldom been experienced in the past-.
