As we have no accounts of the Great Western, it may be concluded that the damage she sustained in the dreadful hurricane, which she encountered in her outward voyage to America, proved more serious than was at first supposed, and that it was found necessary to detain her at New York for repairs beyond the day appointed for her departure. M. Ouvrard, the distinguished financier, died yes terday in the 78th year of his age. This gentleman figured prominently in the great events of the first French Revolution, the Republic, the Consulate, the Empire, the Restoration and the Revolution of 1830. Oar advices from the Cape of Good Hope are by her Majesty's ship Sappho, 16, Corn. Gambier, ar rived at Spithead, with dates from Cape Town to the 3rd, and from Simon's Bay to the 4th September. The Apollo had arrived from Monte Video, and pro ceeded to Waterloo Bay to land her troops, in at tempt:ng which she lost all ber anchors, and was nearly wrecked while endeavouring to get under way. She returned to Simon's Bay with the soldiers still on boar, l , but was to sail for Algoa Bay, where it was intended they should disembark. The President, 30, Capt. Stanley, with the flag of the Commander-in-Chief, and the Snake, 16, Com mander Brown, were at the Mauritius. Rear-Admi ral Dacres had dispatched the Thunderbolt steam sloop, Commander Boyle, through the Mozambique Channel to the Cape, with orders for all cruisers to join him without delay. The Helena, 10, Commander Sir C. Ricketts, was still at Simon's Bay. She had lost eighteen men by fever and dysentery, but no officer. The Cleopatra, 26, Capt. Wyville, had cap tured, between the Mozambique and Quillimane, a large barque, the Constantia, of Rio, fitted as a whaler, but engaged in the slave-trade. We publish in another page the official dispatches of Sir A. Stockenstrom, Colonel Ilan, and Lieutenant- Colonel Johnstone, to the Commander-in-Chief, de tailing the operations conducted by these officers against the Kaffirs in the Amatola mountains, to which we have already referred. The news from the camp of Sir Peregrine Maitland, at Fort Beresford, is scanty. There had been no general enmement near the month of the Buffalo as was expected ; so that we presume the Guikas must have given his Excellency the slip as the Kaffirs did Sir A. Stockenstrom in the Amatola range. Sir Andries was with his division at the Kabuzi, where Colonel Johnstone was to join him, when they would proceed to Krcilis country for cattle. Colonel Somerset had returned with the Cape Mounted Rifle Corps, to Fort Peddle to refresh the horses, being completely worn out, and as nothing important could be under taken without cavalry, the progress of the war might be considered for the time suspended. A letter from the army in Kaffirland shows the wretched plight to which horses, men, and oxen were reduced. The writer says : We are encamped not far from Fort Beresford (left hank of the Buffalo), and are busy throwing up entrenchments and constructing redoubts ; it being the intention of his Excellency the Governor to establish here a strong post of infantry, and to suspend operations until October, by which time, it is hoped, the horses and working oxen will be fit for active service. A strong post is also to be established at Line Drift, on the Kieskamma, for the purpose of keeping the communication open between this part and the mouth of the Fish River. Colonel Hare is encamped at Fort White, and is equclly as bad off as ourselves ; in fact, never were field operations commenced under more untoward circumstances. We have never had a sufficiency of food. With biscuit we arc very moderately supplied, and of cattle for slaughter we are again getting very short. With all this, the labour of traversing the Amatola has been very severe, and which hes been in great part effectually scoured. The Fingoes and Hottentots have throughout behaved uncommonly well, rod many of the burghers have also displayed great gal lantry ; but there have been exceptions to this, as some of them do not like bush work, and in operating upon the fo ks of the Buffalo showed considerable disinclination to enter the thick bush which abounds there. Lieutenant Stokes, R.E., had a very narrow escape the other night from being killed by one of our own men. He was fired at by the sentry, whose gun luckily was only loaded with loopers, one of which struck him on the right shoul der, and another a little lower. Fortunately, no se rious mischief was done, and he is now doing well . Her Majesty's 45th Regiment had marched from Port Elizabeth to the 'frontier. The accounts from the Colony itself are sufficiently gloomy. The Kaffirs continued their depredations in the neighbourhood of the Fish River. Their numbers were evidently on the increase, and it was mach to be feared that their strength would be still farther aug mented by some bodies of the enemy, who, according to Col. Hare, were again moving towards the frontier. We annex the latest accounts from the seat of war. The following summary of the week is taken from the African Journal of September 3: The events of the past week confirm and deepen every impression previously made, that the Kaffir' will not, in open field or in fair fight, con front the British troops. Colonel Han intimates, in his official despatch, that the Kiffirs had broken up their masses, and were falling back in detached parties upon the colony, an opinion which subsequent events seem fully to confirm. Such a kind of warfare as this requires the colonists to be unceasingly on their guard. The aim of the savage will not be to fight, but to surprise and butcher. Days, and even weeks, may pass over in un broken tranquillity—neither a sound heard, nor a glimpse seen, of an enemy; caution then becomes relaxed—pru dential measures are neglected—when, 10, in an unguarded moment, the foe suddenly springs forth, and either embrues his hand in blood, or sweeps away the property of the already impoverished, and, for the moment, paniesetricken farmer. . . A warfare of this character is most harassing to regular troops, and ought not to be thought or treated lightly, as the recent operations in the Amatola will abundantly testify. It seems hardly credible that a force of from 8,000 to 10,000 men could ve invested that celebrated fastness—could have dim precipices, and wowed its kloofs, with such trifling results those we find recorded. But still such is the fact, and Agt, perhaps, for the time these operations hated, no Bri tis h army ever endured a greater amount of hardship, or dikixed more intredidity, activity, and zeal, than our forces on, the occasion in question. Under such circumstances, the main object should be to secure the colony against the inroad. of the enemy, as, until this is done, t ,~ No. 47.] LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, OCT. 24, 1846. [3d. every movement in Kaffirland will be comparativety useless. • _ The march of Sir Andries Stockenstrom and Colonel Johnston upon the KyoTsmentioned in communications before us as being not a very difficult and hazardous ope ration. The former, we perceive, lays great stress upon the moral effect of a bold forward movement. There es great force in this, but, although we are no advocate for re treat in dealing with the Kaffir., still it cannot escape obser vation, that a failure here might be attended with the most fatal results to the whole colony. That the Kaffir' are not so completely subdued as many may be led to suppose, appears very evident from recent eir cumstaoces. We refer to the slaughter of 14 waggoners —to the brutal exhumation of the three Hottentsts killed • few days previously—and to the hanging of their bodies in terrorem in the road by which our troops were about to march. Add to this, their appearance in force in the Chumie Hoek, the capture of the commissariat oxen at Waterloo Bay, and a variety of minor circumstances, and the inference is unavoidably that, although the Ka ffi r may be cowed, he is not subdued ; and that, in fact, he is only changed from a bold open enem to a cautions stealthy assume, and in which character h e may do more mischief, if we are not very careful, than in any other he could possi bly assume. But little faith is to be put in the profession of those Kaffir emissaries who have recently visited the Governor's camp. These women are employed as spies, and they tell a plowable story of the humility and penitence of the chiefs, when at the same time those very men cherish the most rancorous hostility towards those whom they thus profess to propitiate. Fortunately, the Governor seems to appn.ciate all this, and he has treated them accordingly. Still the Kaffir is incredibly cunning, and the colony must take care that it is nut outwitted at last. We place at present great dependence upon the troops in the field. They have gained experience, and they now know and have tried their leaders. Some of these have approved themselves to be men of sterling qualities for the rough work in which they are engaged ; their cause is a righteous one, and fully warrants them in indulging a well-grounded hope of speedy at* complete success. lisseefs news from the trenlier Is to the 22d of August the Graham's Town Journal of that date says : " No movement of any importance has taken place for the last week. A few days ago 21 weogon-drivers left the Ge neral's camp to go in search of Kaffir corn. After proceeding a few miles seven of them returned; the remainder (all Hot tentots) persisted, were surrounded by a large body of Kaffir', and of the whole party 14 only escaped. " Ilmballa and Macomo have again seat in for peace, but their messengers were not allowed to enter the camp. " Sir Andres Stockenstrom is at the Kahuzi, Diihne's station, with his division. " Colonel Johnstone was to join him immediately, and they were to proceed to Kreli's country for cattle. " His excellency remains at Fort Beresford with the in fantry to patrol the mountains. "Colonel &menet has returned with his corps to Fort Peddle. " Four or five spans of °zee, in the employ of the Com mivariat, have been adroitly carried off by the Kaffir ma rauders.

DORKING, OCT. 22.-The supply of Wheat at to day's market was tolerably good, but in consequence of higher prices being asked, the transactions were very limited.

EXETER, Ocr. 23.-We have had a lively market for all description of Grain to-day, and good supplies. Wheat and Oats sold freely at last week's prices; but Barley obtained an advance of 2s. per qr. --• • • • Ocr. 23. The market has been rather quiet; but prices are fully supported for Wheat, Beans, Peas, and Oats. Otinding Barley is very scarce, and 375. per qr. duty paid, has been realised for a parcel of good Danish. LIVERPOOL, Ocr. 23.—Haring had much rain, and very stormy weather this week, the fresh arrivals of the put few days, with the exception of some increase in the supply of Irish Wheat, are limited of all British produce; and the foreign imports are chiefly included in a few parcels of wheat, Indian Corn, and Flour, from the United States. During the interval from Tuesday, sales of any kind of free Grain have not been of material amount, but Wheat and Flour fully preserved the rates of that day ; whilst several parcels of the former, in bond and floating, have met buyers, at somewhat more than the free value allowing for the 4s. duty, and States Flour in bond has commanded 345. per barrel. In the absence of the usual number of country buyers at our market to-day, the Wheat trade was much less active than of late, our local millers have bought rather sparingly ; all descriptions of English, Irish, and duty paid Foreign Wheata, however, being held with unabated firmness, the general currency of oar last circular remained unvaried. Although for Irish and free barrel Flour, the demand was limited, the latter, in one or two instances, realised a slight amendment, and for 2,000 barrels of American sour, 303. was refusAl ; a few thousands of sweet Westerns, in bond, changing hands again this morning at 345. Barley and Malt having become Pearce, buyers were compelled to pay the full rates last noted. Beans and Peas were in tolerable request, and the former Is. per qr. dearer. Oats were saleable at the advance of Tuesday; and for prime new Oatmeal we may increase our quotations, Is. per 240 lb. Indian Corn, having met less inquiry this morning, a decline of Is. to. 2s, per 4801 b. was partially conceded; and in this article, or in Wheat, afloat, no further transactions are reported to-day. LOUGHBOROUGH, Ocr. 22.—There was a good supply of Wheat to-day at about the same prices as last week, in some cues a shade higher. Barley was higher, some of the best samples selling as high as 445. and 455. per quarter. Some samples sold as low as 35s so that the average price may, probably, be no higher than last week. Old Beans radift,i 508. per quarter. In Oats and Peas we heard of but little doing, and the prices were about the same as last week. NEWTON ABBOT, Ocr. 23.—There were many samples of Wlheat offered for sale in to-days market, and sales were effected at from Ss. 3d. to Be. 6d. per bushel. The amount of business done, however, was not great, u the millers were looking out for a fall, and would not purchase, COMMERCIAL 41 MARKETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. Half -past Two.—The Bank of England averages for the week ending the 17th inst. show the following differ ences on comparison with the returns of the week preceding: Iu the department of issue, decrease of 336,4901., the actual amount of issue on average being for the week ending the 17th instant, 28,741,6451. In the ac tive circulation an increase of 559,4251., the total average amount of notes out among the public being 21,331,7751. Deere-ate of public deposits, 4,445,1421., the average on bend being 5,356,2601. Increase of other deposits, 761,6481., the ayera3e held being 9,081,2741. Decrease of government securities in bank ing department, 153,2411., the average on hand 12,808,1191. Decrease of other securities, 2,438,7261., the average being reduced to 12,788,9391. Decrease of coin and bullion, 439,1861., the average amount being reduced to 15,143,043/. The rest shows an increase of 49,2011., the amount on average being 3,432,3591. These returns show some remarkable variations in the position of the Bank. The increase of active circula tion, and the decrease of public deposits, may be readily accounted for by the payment of dividends. The notes out would, as apparent from the paying out of nearly 44 millions of public deposits in divi dends, have exhibited a much larger increase still, but for the countervailing check of the decline in the amount of securities in the banking department, which in the aggregate was to the amount of nearly 2,600,0001. The diminution of the stock of coin and bullion would also act upon circulation, either by the payment of notes into Bank against coin or bullion taken out, or by the latter being called for on dividend account. The Bank, as will be seen by the securities, was letting its loans run out, and probably some proport'on of its bills. The excess of the former is a common occurrence during the shutting of the transfer books, and the accumulation of public deposits. The funds are about the same as the opening quotations,' but with en inactive market. Conso's, 94', to 5 money, and 95 to / for account. The slight rise in prim ' therefore, of yesterday are not supported . Exchequer Bills remein 13s. to 165., which is evidence of the easiness of money. Excepting in Spanlsh stocks, the foreign market has been without business. Spanish Fives are a shade better, at the quotations 261 to 7 ; the Threes are 374 to 1. Mexican heavy at 221 to 31. It is stated from Berlin, that the subscriptions for shares in the new bank, which is to commence operations on the lot of January next, amounted to 21,000,000 of stealer .. , , that is, to 11,000,000 more than the quantity to be issued. Con fidence in the new establishment was so great, that the shares were already at 113, that is 13 premium, although not then distributed, and money besides being so scarce.

STOWMARKET, Oar. 22.—80th the attendance and the supply of Cons was rather small at our market, owing to the wetness of the day and our farmers being engaged in seeding. We had no visible alteration in the value of Wheat, but Barley was Is. to Is. 6d. per quarter higher than last week, our maltaters being anxious to begin working, the weather baying become cold. Not a sample that we heard of either of Beans or Peas in offer. WAKEFIELD, OCT. 23.-Our arrivals of Wheat are still large, but the demand is quite equal, and we quote prices Is. quarter higher than last week. Barley finds free sale at an advance of 2s. to 3e. per quarter on all sorts, grinding as well as malting in great request. Oats are 3d. to ld. per stone, and Shelling 3e. per load dearer. Beans come to hand in fair quantity and do not sell so freely, but this article is generally held at full prices. Fine Malt extremely scarce, and brings high rates. No alteration in other articles.

Beef, 6s. to 6s. 6d. per stone ; Mutton, 7d. per lb. - - • BICESTER, Ocr. 23.—The stock in the fair was chiefly Welch—viz. Cows, Bullocks, and Sheep. For these high prices were asked, and obtained. A drove of Welch Sheep met a ready sale at from 16s. to 16s. 6d. CROYDON, OCT. 22.—The supplk waa Od, and was met with a ready demand. Good ether S heep sold at 4s. 6d. per stone, and some pens of \Tethers made 6.55. a head. The trade among Lambs was steady, the primest sort making from 275. to 30s. a-head. !dila Cows with a small Calf fetch 141. to 161. each. COLCHESTER FAIL—At this fair the supply of Beasts was unusually limited, and the demand being brisk the entire number readily found purchasers at good prices. Of Sheep about the average number were shewn, and a con siderable proportion changed hands. In Horses the chief transactions were between the dealers themselves. Alto gether a more active business has not been done at this fair for several years. LrroN FAlL—This fair was attended by a great number of farmers, but the supply of stock was far inferior in quality and less in quantity than usual. The demand for Beasts WAS greater than the supply, and those sold realized high prices. Sheep were plentiful, but, owing to the un usually high prices, but few sales were effected. Pigs went off at high prices, very few being sold under 4s. 4d. and 4,5. 6d. per stone of Slbs. There was a poor show of horses, and but few buyers. ROTHERFIELD, OCT. 20.—Our fair held this day was very large, the show of stock being immense, and most of it in excellent condition. Among the rest were some of the finest oxen ever put in yoke. Most of the stock was sold, and it is perhaps unnecessary to say, at good prices. Of Horses, there was a lorge show, many of which exchanged owners, at remunerating prices. The show of Welsh Runts was not near so large as is usual at our winter fair, as it is usually called ; but moat of them were pretty good. In fact, we believe that a more business-like fair, and a larger one, was hardly ever held here. STOCKTON, Ocr. 21.—We had a very short supply at our market to-day.
