Caption: "Our correspondent writes:-"The submission of four sections of the Afridi tribesmen is now an accomplished fact. As soon as they submitted, the blockade against them was raised. Directly they were free to do so, they streamed into Peshawar city to get supplies, especially salt, the want of which they have felt severely. Peshawar city has lately been full of tribesfolk, men, women, and children, buying cloth, grain, seed, and all the necessaries of life. They have shown themselves extremely amenable to order".
