NATAL.
A GRAVE SITUATION. ZULUS LEAVING THE RAND. FOR THE RICHMOND DIS'IRICT. Received February 14, 11.53 p.m. CAPETOWN, February 14. Censorship is being exercised in Natal. The Times' Johannesburg correspondent has visited Natal, and finds that the situation is rather more disquieting than officially represented. The correbpondent states that the natives latterly are defying the magistrates, and are meeting tax demands with passive resistance. The Government refrains, owing to extra expense, from dealing with the situation as a whole. They ought to oollect all the taxes, Lacking up the magistrates with an Imperial mobile oolumn. This would reduce any upheaval to a minimum, which would be easily settled and thu»» prevent any possible bloodshed in April. The Earl of Selborne advocates a vigorous policy, which would meet with the approval of the hulk of the Natal inhabitants. The Daily Mail states that a considerable number of Zulus, employed in the Rand, are starting for Natal. FOUR REBELS CAPTURED. CAPETOWN, February 14. The Volunteers have captured four rebels in the Richmond district.
