The French Papers of Saturday state, that the fa mous KABRIS, son-in•law of the King of the Savages of the Island of Noukahiwa, lately died very sud denly, at Valenciennes, where he went, as to many other towns, to exbibit himself for a small sum. The biographic des Hammes Vivans contains the following notice of this singular character : " Josses; KASS'S, born at Bourdeaux, was taken prisoner on board a French ship, where be was a sailor, and conducted to England, where he obtained permission to enter on beard a whaler, destined for the South Sea. Escaped from the wreck of this vessel, which was lost on the coast of Noukahiwa (Saint Catherine), in the Great Ocean, Exam fell into the hands of the ihitheopophogi, or man-eaters, who were preparing to make him suffer the fate of Mmtunr, and perhaps of LA Plitovsz ; the club was actually lifted that was to fell him to the earth, when VALMAISKA, the young daughter of the KIM, demanded and obtained mercy for him, and shortly afterwards married him, to the great disappointment of the gastronomes of the country, in whom the good condition of Kassa had excited a hope of en joying the most exquisite cheer. . The morning after his marriage feast, in which Kasen had appeared with a mantle made of the bark of a tree like that worn by the Kiwi, the Monarch tattooed him himself as the Nobles of the land are tattooed; be traced on the left side of his face the sign which distinguishes the Royal Family of Nouka hiwa. He was then invested with the functions of Grand Judge, and acquitted himself with much prudence and cleverness, which was promoted by the simplicity of the language and laws of this reople, who do not yet embarrass the march of justice with nit raerous forms. The thief is tied for several days to a tree. An .assassin is killed by the family of th* deceased, his body divided between the different tribes. The traitor is flayed alive, and thrown into the sea, as he is thought not worthy even of being eaten.—Kasars had been for nine years the father of 'a family, and enjoyed in his eminent character of Judge, family happiness ond the favours of fortune, when he was wiled away, as he says, in his sleep by the Russian Captain Kaussarrritur. " When he arrived at Petersburgh, he was appointed Professor of Swimming, in the Imperial School for the Navy, and he re turned to France in 1817, on board the vessel which went to Russia to bring back the remainder of the French troops. It seems that Captain Kausausraan had no other motive for carry ing away Kaman, but to chew this prodigy to his Sovereign.— When he awoke, far from VALMAISKA and his children, be:viade many useless complaints, but forced to resign himself to his fate s to make it more agreeable, he solicited permission to return to , France. Soon after his arrival at Paris he was presented to the• Kum, who shewed him signs of his good will ; and some time afterwards he received a similar reception from the King of PRUSSIA, who was then in that capital. " Before returning to his native . town, Kazan stewed him self to the public, to levy on it the funds necessary for his jour ney to Bourdeaux,' from whence he proposed to return to the South Sea, desiring again to propound the oracles of justice to the savages of Noukabiwa, whose manners be pretends to have improved. " Kazan was possessed of good sense, and some Instruction; and in his answers displayed a degree of frankness which does rot permit us to apply to his stories, at least not too rigorously, the epithet of tiresome, which originates in that country where he was born. People who are fond of observing curious rela tions have remarked that this man, whose greatness had de parted like a dream, chose the Cabin ete des Plosions as the place to ~ hew himself in, and the Sotori of Noukuhiwa supplied the place of the dog Munito, at a theatre of Afaisonnettes.' CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM A SETTLER, DATED GRAHAM'S TOWN, APRIL 4. 44 Our situation, I can assure you, is in many re spects not very enviable. We poor self-transported sealers, form a sort of boundary against the Caffres, we being on the west side, and they un the east side of the Great Fish River, and can destroy us whenever they choose to make a pretext for warfare, when they may come on us in large bodies ; and although King Kiker and all his tribe are said to be friendly to the English, yet there are six other tribes who are not so, and whom Kiker cannot keep in subjection. We are much annoyed by wolves, hyenas, and jack ails, who destroy our sheep, and sometimes attack a bullock, if lying down. The bullocks, cows, and' calves feed overlarge tracks of land ; at night they are driven home, and confined in what is called a crawl, which is made by placing bushes round them ; the sheep are confined the same way, but more se cure; but this is no defence against beasts of prey,which are sure to come in rainy weather and dark nights. One settler alone lost in one night 100 sheep by the wolves and jackalls, and numbers die of the cold rainy nights. I have known fifty head of cattle to die in one night of cold, in Government's crawl, Graham's Town. The Ilottentots, who are very good nu! ksmen, often bring us in a deer that will weigh .561bs. and sell it for three rix-dollars (six shillings) ; the skin is worth one-third of the money to make upper-leatbers for shoes, for we cannot buy even a goat-skin tanned under 14s. to 16s. sheep-skins are only worth 4d. and when tanned Is. 6d. to 2s.— Mutton is from 2d. to lid. per pound, and beef 2d. but by buying the whole beast the former stands in about lid. and the latter ld. per pound. Candles and soap are Is, per pound, although there is no duty en either, and every person can make either. The farmers will bring skins of fat into the market and sell them for id. to 20. per pound, yet no article is sold bete under a profit of 100 per cent. I have at tended sales at Graham's Town, when common white dinner plates have sold for 12s. per dozen, and a dinner set of blue and green edged, imperfect, and not the best ware, has sold for £2O, which might be bought in England for £3 to £4. The duty on all manufactures paid at the Cape is 3 per cent. on the value. Clothing of every sort is very dear ; very coarse cloth is 28s. per ell, which is two-thirds of a yard English. Every measured article must be sold by the ell ; woollens of all kinds and colours are ready sale; common large shawls, and blue and red hand kerchiefs, are much in demand ' - indeed, all kinds of Ergli,h goods would sell well, sod go off quick here." ...a.. *MPG At 104 4 ,1111011.LLA UPT:11: . 1 - 'l4ig str :,. tf/* PAUL . 7 to 4 ..,,, 14.240z ar iniz . . • ,41.; ' to 1 apt Tbe litog, ,j v 2to 1 apt Past il le , it to 1 apt Stamford • ' .

Sykes,,Bart." and brotheolo-law to Haistal. made hint a similar present; a circumstance highly creditable an both individuals. The champion has won 15 times, sad received three forfeits. William MI Mullen, aged 1g; undertook to walk 100 miles in 24 successive hours, an Tyne Green, near Hexhans, on the 20th ult. and accomplish ed his task oath* 215t,52 minutes 20 seconds within the time. A liberal subscription was made for him. . WONDERFUL SHOT. On the lith ult. der** very violent storm of wind and rain, as a gentleman from Essex, a [need of Captain Decencies'', of Caldbeck, was pursuing the amusement of partridge-shooting in the neighbourhood of Allenby, his dogs sprung a covey of de. brace, when he levelled at his bird, and at the Meant, the wind giving the covey a sudden twist, he fired and brought down no less than Mow birds, to the astonishment of himself and the per son who accompanied him ; with his second barrel be then killed another bird : thus, in a few seconds, bagging five brace out of the six ! What adds to the singularity of thistruly turprisiog slier is, that every bird fell quite dead. HARR HUNTING. Hare hunting appears to have been the favourite recreation of ecclesiastics, as it is not very long since Bishops were obliged to keep a pack of harriers for the exercise and amusement of their clergy. So far back as the twelfth century, we find that a Bishop of Rochester was so fond of hare bunting that he was said to have suffered it to interfere with the sacred functions of his profession, and was a keen sportsman at the age of eighty. In the 14th century, a Bishop of Worcester appears to have written to a brother Bishop of St. David's, to remind him of a promise to seed him six couples of hounds, declaring he lan guished for them. " Let them come then, oh Reverend Father, " said his Lordship, " without delay ; let my woods reecho w ith the music of their cry, and the cheerful notes of the horn !" The Right Hon. ROBERT Pen has retired from the fatigues of the office to the enjoyment of the sports of the field, at Lulworth Castle. He is an ad- , mirable shot, and has daily bagged, on an average, twenty brace of partridges, besides abundance of hares. Sir ROBIRT PEEL is at present with his son, and it is stated that the Duke of YORK will also' shortly honour the Castle with another visit. The Haymarket Season is drawing to a close, and we are pleased to hear, has been crowned with the utmost success, which is, doubtless, owing to the ex cellent Company which the Manager has engaged. In the night of the 6th ultimo, Mount Vesuvius emitted most brilliant flames, but unaccompanied with any noise. This morning, at five o'clock, a fire broke out at the house of Mr. Sadler, the Hat and Feathers, CO lingwood-street, on the Surrey side of Blackfriars"- bridge, which entirely consumed the lower part of the building before it was extinguished. A young •man; in jumping out of a window, broke his leg. Sunday morning last, about eleven o'clock, a de structive fire broke out in a cottage at Pollicott, in the parish of Ashendon, which almost instantly com municated to the next cottage, and to two large bean ricks in the adjoining farm-yard of Mr. T. Garrett. It happened fortunately to be the feast day at Ash endon, which had collected a considerable number of people together, and every possible assistance was promptly rendered. An engine was also procured from the Marquis of Chandos, at Wotton ; but owing to the time which necessarily elapsed before its ar* rival, and the difficulty in procuring water, the cot tages and bean-ricks were entirely consumed before the raging element could be got under, and it was not without great exertions that the wheat-ricks and other property in the farm-yard were saved from its ravages. It was, however, at length finally .extin guished,with no other damage than that stated above, and the loss to the labourers who inhabited the cot tages of their little all. The property on the farm was insured. The fire was occasioned from the ignition of some timber in the wall,when heating the oven in one of the cottages. By the completion of the Portsmouth and Arundel Branch Canal, a communication is now open from Portsmouth to Chichester; and only .5.59 yards, con sisting of excavation and embankments, remain to be completed, in order to effect the long desired ob ject of an inland navigation between Portsmouth and the Metropolis. DUEL.—Yesterday morning, at day-break, a meet ing took place in Peckham Fields, between Mr. E--x, a Gentleman from Hampshire, and a Gen tleman well known in all the sporting circles. The Country Gentleman, who has not been above a week in town, lost £3OO at cards, of which the other Gen tleman was the principal winner. A Mr: J. a friend, who met Mr. E. accidentally in the street, sold him' he had no doubt but he bad been made 'the dupe of sharpers, and under this impression the challenge was given, and instantly accepted. The parties fired two shots each, and in the last Mr. E. wounded his opponent in the thigh, receiving • the latter's ball through his hat. Aidedical Gentleman was on the spot, and dressed the wound, which he pronounced to be only a flesh wound, and not. dangerous. OUTRAGES IN LIMERICK.-At an early hour on the morning of - Monday .ie'nnight, a communication reached the Police-office of Captain DnotjonT, in that city, than at six o'clock en the preceding evening, two men of his infantty corps, named Gunnell and Arm strong, returning from Castle Connell to their quar ters at Bird-hill, were attacked en the Ciouigg-road, and that the former was murdered, and the body - supposed to have been thrown into a bog-hole, as no trace could be found of it. At three o'clock, however, a messenger arrived, whn stated that Gunnell had been found in the corner of a ditch, at a distance f r om where the attack.was made upon him ; and that, though wounded and stabbed in several parts of the `body, he was likely to recover. Various, civics are assigned for this outrage, and as inquiry is about Ito take place. . . • • - .T ~r , ' • A ot-c. •; • _.• , I -r -comedtted plidew .tar indecent blikeeller to two Wm& dal s% eh sal eekilefxr r •.7 • isy ,!• •f•' , peace anialuadeof iweephliigtelweilsotal to the Otis.. a 44 la ' 14 1 1 , "trivia& 9920 0 . 9 1ri 9 1 Abirwithile du the fact9 l l.9 l . !F.

An old Wonsan, who gave her name Soma "410 but who on being brought before Mr G. Fs mune at this.Lilice yesterday, was recognised as an old offender, who had been awnricted under the name of Jones, was remanded on a charge of stealing a pocket handkerchief, in the Chapel in Queen-street, Lincoln ' s on Sunday. . . [ • A young woman, from Windsor, was brought tip file begging in the Gredh Park, on Sunday last. She told a piteous story respecting the misfortune of listening to a young elan, who had enticed her front hen friends, and , then abandoned her. The Magistrate erderecl that her case should be enquired into. • Queax-sQuaaa.—Thomas Cooke, in the employ of Good rick, a fisherman on the Thames, at Hammersthith, was brought up on a charge of stealing a sheep, the pinperty -of . Mr. Thomas Owen, a butcher, at Barnes. The' prosecutor stated, that on Frkliy morning he turned eleven sheep into a meadow neat the water-side, at Barnes, and that in the evening only ten returned. Snipe information which reached him induced him to have the prisoner'apprehended on the same evening, on suspicioti of stealing the missing sheep ; and on the following inorningletound the saute sheep bleating, and apparently much frightened,with a rope round its neck, near to the meadow from which he.had lost it. Isaac Cox and Edward Clarke. two boys In the service of Mr. 'Chipman, a farmer at Barnes, deposed, that they were tending some cows in afield adjoining to that where the prosecutor's sheep were feeding, on Fridai between five and six o'clock, and they saw a sheep run along the towing-path by the water side. Knowing it to be one of Mr. Owes 's sheep, they went to drive ithack into the field, and they saw the prisoner, who, with John Goodrich, his employer's eldest son, was towing their boat, drive the sheep before them, Robert - G oe drick and an apprentice fol lowing them, anti the elder Ooodrick sitting in the boat. The prisoner an d John Goodrick. with an oath, told the boys to let the sheep alone, and they accordingly returned to • the field. As they were going back, they heaid the prisoner say it was " a very fat one ;" am i they saw Bobert- G o odrich get aver "the Hake, . _ and run along the bank to get ahead of the sheep, which he then drove back towards the prisoner, and one of the party was peep ing from behind a bush to.observe which way the boys went.— Wheri they had driven home their master's cows, Isaac Cos went and told Mr. Owen of What they had seen. The prisoner said, they were towing their boat, aad the sheep was feeding by the sidirr( di towing-path, and not being able to pus them, itnaturally RePC.OII before them. They called out to the boys to leave the sheep elope, because they drove it into the ditch, where, being a large and heavy sheep, it was in danger of being smothered. There being, however, in the opinion of the Magistrates, not sufficient evidence of the asportraion to warrant a commitment, the prisoner was discharged. The prosecutor then swore that he went in fear cif some bodily harm from John Goodrich and the prisoner's brother, who had threatened him with violence ';" and John Goodrich was therefore ordered to give security to keep the peace towardb the prosecu tor, and a warrant_was issued against the prisoner's brother for a similar purpose.
