THE Evening Star. PUBLISHED DAILY AT FOUR O'CLOCK P.M. Resurrexi. WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23, 1879.
To-day we publish an important Cable, gram conveying intelligence -of what appears to hare been a severe defeat on the Zulus/inflicted by General Lord Chelmsford. In the engagement, it is stated, a large number of Zulus were slaughtered, but particulars of our loss are not to hand. It is to be hoped a fewmore crushing defeats will, be inflicted on our enemies at the Cape, which will probably bare the effect of bringing them to hare a just estimate of the superiority ot the white man, and to acknowledge the supremacy of Great Britain. Prom late Cape files we publish extracts giving details of the first serious defeat .Suffered by pur forces, and opinions upon the situation in Zululand.
