An arrival from the Cape of Good Hope supplies us with files of the South African Adtertider to the 2nd December. From this journal we collect that matters upon the frontier remained much as at the date of previous advices. Negotiations having failed, Sir Peregrine Maitland had given public notice, on the 10th of November, that the truce with the hostile Gaika Ka lira would expire on the 18th, after which, if the terms dictated to them were not complied with, hos tilities would be resumed, and all parties were advised to be on., their guard, and required to be prepared for action. It was confidently expected that hostili ties would be resumed, and that the war would be brought to a speedy and triumphant issue, as the British forces had received a considerable augmenta tion of regular troops, and the service was efficient in every department. The Kaffirs would pr'bably be assailed simultaneously in front and on both flanks. Colonel Somerset had moved towards Fates country. ' There were troops at Fort Beaufort and Kat River to march to the centre, and Sir A. Stockinstrom was far in advance on the left, and occupied a position at 1 Shiloh. A detachment from this latter force, under Mr. J. Read, had been engaged with Mapes/to:defeat ' ing him, and killing 46 Kidlirs and Tambookies, and capturing 1,600 head of cattle, 46 horses, 400 goats and three guns. The 6th Regiment and Rifle Brigade had marched from Algoa Bay to the frontier. Many of the Burgher levies having been assured that the government would make provision for their families, had consented to remain in the field. There was still a good deal of marauding on the border, and even close to Graham's Town. The following is from the South African Cluntner cial Ae?rertiser, of Nov. 28, 1846: The news by the last poet from the frontier, or rather from Kaffirland, though indistinct and by no means official, leads to the hope that the wer is, or will very soon be ended. The rapid accumulation of supplies, and of troops, the improved state of the country for military operations, the discovery of Port Maitland, and the recent successes of the force under Sir A. Stockenstrom on the Tambookie tide, seem to be well understood by the Ranks. They feel that they are mas tered, and they are now ouly trying their skill at diplomacy. In this field the governor has already skews that he is pre. ' pared to inert them, by adopting Sandillee advice, offered at the beginning of the present miseinderetanding, namely, " not to be in a hurry." It has been said by some one arise in the phileenpity of manners, that " a gentleman is never in • hurry." The wet, orsatheit the /4"aeoperatious in it, wore certainly sinnewhat hurried, and the effect& have justified the maxim. His excellency ip now showing the Kaffirs that he has no cause to be in a hurry to end the war, though he would gladly sheathe the sword at any moment. But his term. are fixed. As an offending party, they must submit and obey, or perish. They also begin to perceive that their lands are in the course of being given away and nettled by a race of men from whom they can never expect to wrest them, and that the longer their subminion is delayed, the mom will their remaining territory be narrowed. The manner in which the country between the Fish and Kei rivers is to be settled, or the population distributed in it, is mid a subject of conjecture with the public. The whole will of course be under British authority, the pro tection of British law being extended to every person and to all property within it. Hottentqta, Plagues, Beehuanes Bushmen, and such individual Kama as Divvy leave bee; faithful to the colony during the war ; that is, natives born or adopted British subjects, will mainly occupy townships as far as the Buffalo River. This to begun with. The town ships will be partly of a military eharacter. They will be distributed and organised with a- view to defence. Within the territory just named, there are a considerable number of well-watered and fertile vote, ware both the spade end the plough may be extensively and profitably used. The new settler must be in that stage of ervilieation where the spade and the plough are familiar instruments. To thqspade and the plough a military post, with the ready aid of the settlers, can give protection. To sheep and cattle in flocks and heeds • in vast numbers on large isolated farms, a military post can afford no adequate protection. Neither can isolated huts, or smell hamlets, scattered over such a territory, be protected by soldiers in such a country. The governor should, therefore, not be in a hurrs- in filling it with inhabitants. From the townships, , well located and well protected, population should be leg to radiate in the natural course of increase, every step being well secured and supported by the rooted population behind. Such a country, boo rapidly filled by a heterogeneous impel*. tion, would speedily fall into disorder, poverty, and crime. Instead of acting as a breakwater and defence to the stock farmers *llia the old boundary, the . bad characters among there would kindle a flame on both Pelee of them, alloying the colonial farmers by adroit depredations, and rousing by their misdeeds the neighbouring Kstfins to lets of retaliation. On the other side of the Buffalo Itiver, aed up to the Kei, at least along the sea-board, i, is sum-sled the elnernor Means to locate such of the Kaffirs as may surreneffir their arms end their persons within • reasonable time. This is British territery, and the inhabitants will be under British mile—to be exercised probably by one or more British &litho titles, working by means of native agency en accordance with such of their Customs as are not repugnant to humanity, nor incenflatent with the security of person and property. Such are some of the expectations entertained respecting the settlement of Kaffirland, to which the mind eagerly turns after the miser* of a haommus woe, .whieh harm aged the colony for the last see' n or eigLt months. • Now , S ew CIiOOL BOT • th e d A ew UMIENTS of BOTANICAL PCIENCL ° lify° tiln Dr. LIND!

Since the foregoing was written, we have received Graham's Town papers to the 25th November. According to the original notice given by the go vernor, the truce was to have expired on the 18th Nov., but the armistice was subsequently extended for ten days. This change in Sir Peregrine Maitland's original intention is said to have been occasioned by some individual Kaffirs having presented themselves at head quarters, delivering up their assegais, and saying they were the governor's children, and he could do with them as he pleased. It was even said that Sir Peregrine had waived his demand for the restoration of cattle stolen from the colony, under the imprezion that they were either dead, or had been driven beyond the reach of the alike, chiefs, some of whom had made submission to British authority. A meeting of Kaffirs had been tailed, and the government agent, Mr. Calderwood, was already engaged locating them on lands assigned for their occupancy. We annex the following from the Frontier Times of the 24th November : The mail from Fort Beaufort brings intelligence that the govern 'r lied granted a further truce of ten days to the Ciaik• Hostilities are, therefore, prorogued to the 29th intt. The governor, it is confidently reported, is about to make peace with the Kaffir', and does not intend to ask for any more cattle beyond those which have already been surrendered; and he is said to be much pleased with the readiness with which these have been restored. Kaffiris are' said to be employed in building a fort for the government at Block Drift. Sandals had posted himself with his people elo-e to the post, and thus matters remain at present The Kaffir, bare given up the Kaffir who stole the hatchet at Fort Beaufort, which tie Kaffir, say the English have been fightin about, and who pie forcibly Teemed by the is-erabanes Town, and some home; cattle, guns, and assegais have been delivered up; also the Kaffir who murdered the Hottentot prisoner. This man died ' on the evening of the day he was surrendered, of disease if the lungs, according to the post•nsortem examination. Some arrangements; have been (lett repined upon as prelimi nary to a peace, and we are assured that tho war it now drawing to an end. Such a peace as this is certainly aa ex- traordinary and incomprebensiffie as the war hos been. . . We learn with surprise that the Rev. Mr. Calderwood, of the Loo'.on Missionary Society, has been appointed chief magistrate of the Anglo-Kaffir territory—teat is, the terri tory between the boundary of the ceded territory and the Buffslo River, which it is intended, it seems, to be the future boundary of Kathrland. Of the fitness of this gentleman for the office, we are not a competent judge. He is an upright man, possessing much vigour of intellect, and will probably be move useful u a magistrate than he was as a missionary. But the appointment will not Rive satisfacti.m to the public, who think that no missionary should assume a political cha racter, and it is mach to be regretted that it should have been male. Mr. Calderwood, we understand, is already engaged in forming locations of such Ka ffirs as are di.posc to amain on this side of the Buffalo, and submit to British Nast Inert, IN II 3 per t.

Half-past Two.—The ministerial statement on the condition and prospects of Ireland, involving the vast ex penditure going on, and to be incurred, for the necessary re lief of the people, with the ways and means by which it is proposed to meet that expenditure, is still the anxious subject of discussion in money and mercantile circles. It is evident to all parties that sooner or later the government must have recourse to a loan, or to issues of Exchequer Bills; and it is pretended in some quarters that, such being the CUP, the better policy would have been to speak out and conic into the market at once. Cooler and more dispassionate observers are, nowever, of a different mind, and believe that the government is acting wisely in selecting its own time for such financial operations as may be necessary. It is ineon test...ble that the general conviction of a forthcoming loan, or a money transaction equivalent, hail, as they observe, been taken into account by the leading capi talists, who, in such case, would have to be ap plied to, and the consequence has been those large sales of stock for money and time during the last fortnight, which have driven down the prices of Consols ne-irly 4 per cent., and rateably other public securities. The evident object of thew speculations do been to force the nevem merit to come to their own term when applying for pecuniary aid. Thus, sup posing Consols to be reduced to 90, capitalists might have pointed to the Act, and with some plausibility would have declined to afford a supply of some millions without such an abatement upon that market standard of stock values as mightisave compelled the Treasury to submit to • contract for the delivery of the required quantityof that stock, against money, at the rate of 87 or 88, or in stocks of other denominations at equivalent rates of reduction. It ie con cluded, from these premiss, that the policy of the govern ment has been calculated on the site of safety and economy, in holding off present financial dealings in a market which had btA!-koagbM was. the Maumee of a sort of panic. The considerations before stated, and the greater confidence they inspired, checked the tendency to further decline to-day. The market opened heavy with Consols at 91 to 1 for money, ! and 911 to : fur time ; but they are now firm at 91} to 1 money, and 911 to s fur accuunt. The reduced difference between the time and money prices, now only 4, but for some days per cent., is rather a favourable snap tom of returning confidence. Exchequer Bills remain 4a. to Fs. prem. The foreign market remoins in nearly the same state, prices about the same as before, and little doing. Dutch Iwo-and-a-11%1f per Cents, 671 to 81 ; the Four*, 91 to 1.

Within the wick we have an in creased quantity of Wheat and Flour coastwise, while the Irish imports are. as pres lonely, very much overbalanced by the exports. There was a very large attendance of the trade thin morning, but no disposition apparent to pur chase freely, and as holders of Wheat and Hone were equally dgiuclined to meke any material conevesion in prices, the business actually done was too very limited I amount. The former must therefore be quoted 38., per 701),. under the duty-paid currency, and the latter Is. per barrel below the bonded rates of this day week. Malt and malting Barley dull sale, at 4s. to 53. per qr., and grinding Barley at :34. per 601 b. reduction. Beans and Peas unaltered in value. Several cargoes of Egyptian Beans, and one or two afloat,. have been sold in the last few days at rather more money. Oats and Oatmeal exceedingly scarce, and bring readily th. advance of Friday.

SUICIDF. OF Tlle HON. H. E. ADDINGTON.— On Wednesday last the Hon. Henry Estecort Addington, son of Lord Sidmouth, committed suicide at his father's residence at Albury, near Guildford. It appears that the unfortunate young man (whose age is only 21 years) ha., for some time past, been labouring under mental aberration, his malady being considered to be the result of a fever caught in the island of Corfu, while on military service. On the 9th instant, by the recommendation of his medical attendants, he was placed under the surveillance of a keeper, who wan in the house at the time the melancholy event occurred. The coroner for Wcat Surrey (J. C. Woods, Esq.) held an inquest on the body on Friday, at the Drum mond Arms, Albury. From the evidence of Oeorge Collins, the kveper referred to, it appeared that on the ut,rMng of Wednesday. while shaving the deceased, he urgently solicited him to let him take the ra/or and shave himself, which of course was refused. Some time afterwards deceased proceeded to his bedroom, the keeper watching him in, but not follow ing him. Entering however, shortly afterwards, he saw deceased suspended to the bedstead by a black silk necker chief. Notwithstanding prompt assistance, dec:ssed never rallied. The jury returned a verdict of insanity.—Susses Advertiser. THE PREVATLING SCARCTIT.—We are informed that the following document has received the approbation, if not of the highest personage of the realm, at least of a large number of the highest ranks in our nobility. A similar voluntary undertaking was, as many of our reader. are aware, very . generally adopted, under the patronage of Royalty, during the dearth which prevailed at the be ginning of the present century. There arc probably few households of the higher and middle closets Of society in which a considerable Paving might not easily be effected, and, although in proportion to the deficiency of supply the amount of provision. thus saved may seem insignificant, it is to he remembered that the only practical remedy for a scarcity is to limit consumption, and that every loaf thus saved is not only so much gain.' by the householder, but so much added to the national stock We, the undersigned, deeply impressed with the distress which prevails among a great number of our fellow-country men in Great Britain and Ireland, front the want of neces sary subsistence, and observing that the prices of food are rising, think It our duty to pledge ourselven to reduce in our as far as may be practicable, the consumption of bread and flour, and we invite the co-operation of all those who may MOM' with us in our estimate of the present emer. gency.— Times. - - NUN EROES FIRES.—Four serious fires have occurred in different puts of the m tropolis since hal 'Tait eleven o'clock last night. The following are the particular: :—lrt CON NAV G KT-TERRACE, EDOEWA RE-ROA 1,, at fifteen minutes before twelve upon the private premiers in the occupation of Mrs. Sand filthy.
