(Front the Cape Argus of April SO.) A de the Freeplorabl eansdtabtle and ood the ywar Basuto h ß a a s s a u tlas n t a b ti r o o n. broken out between alleged cause of the war is the interminable boundary question, which Sir George Clerk left unsettled on the disgraceful abandonment of the sovereignty by the British Government, and the organised system of thiev ing instituted by the BJsutus in order to drive out the Boers from the territory claimed by both parties. Mo shesh, the paramount chief of the Basutus, has tried in vain to put an end to this constant thieving, which affords but too plausible a pretext to the Boers for hos tilities. The real cause is the fierce desire to possess themselves of the lands of the natives, which the Boers consider have been given t) them by God for a posses sion, and it is well known that this unrighteous war was resolved on two years ago by the Free State Volksraad, sitting with closed doors. Moshesh has several times appealed to the Governor of this colony to mediate or arbitrate, but without effect. The Cape Parliament also stands aloof. The truth is, any war is popular with the majority of colonists, which tends to secure more land for the whites, and to break up the black races. Cape colonists are directly interested in this war, for there is a constaet emigration of our best settlers going on from the co:ony to the Free State caused partly by the aversion to the Government, or rather to its vacillating policy. The Governor seems to have committed bim• self to the policy indicated above, and is supposed to regard, if not with satisfaction, at any rats with ind.flerence, the deeds of spoliation and murder now taking place just beyond our borders. If the war continues any length of time, the colony must become n i t n hia v is i o , l s v ius b ed jtehe ts i e ni i,,u tf.sroemAll that has been done to prevent ocfroi g a ss roc t l h a e rnrt o t r i a o t n ,g , efoßrbividedr,intghocuogloh no measures that have come to light have been taken to prevent them, but, on the contrary, insidious attempts are being made, by spreading false reports, to induce the Basutus within colonial limits to criminate them selves, by participating. in the war, apparently with the object of being down upon them c cm n i c f:he party of the mountedunder do so. A large party Commandant ia r e police Currie, is watching their movements. But nothing will, probably, prevent the partisans within the colony, of both parties, from going to assist their countrymen. The war commenced by the Boers, by order of President Boshof, attacking and sacking the French missionary station' of Beersheba, within the Free State boundaries, and tnaKtacreing its unoffendirete inhabitants. A great ouantity of nettle and other property was captured. Various collisions and reprisals have taken place, gene rally resulting in favour of the Boers, and in considerable loss of life to the Basutus ; but the main forces on either side have not yet come into contact. The Boers are concentrating with the intention of attacking Moshesh near his stronghold of Thaba Bossiou. The Basutus are numerically strong, but they are a peaceful and un warlike people, very different from the frontier Kafir, and both intelligent and industrious, and far from bar barous. If something be not shortly done for them, they will be destroyed. All this comes of the shameful want of faith on the part of the British Government towards native tribes, which it undertook to protect and after wards abandoned. The field-pieces used at Beersheba were, we believe, presents made by Sir G. Clerk, and others are daily cipected, which Sir G. Grey undertook to send home for, for his friend Boshof. A large order for gunpowder, lead, and muskets has been received in the colony from the Free State, but the unfortunate Basutus are not allowed to have an ounce. All this is called non-interference. The philanthropists have not yet begun to lift up their eyes and hands in pious horror at these iniquities ; it will be time enough for that when the Basutus have nothing loft to lose, and are reduced to a condition worse than slavery. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam ship Sultan; Captain Neil Cook, with the heavy portion of the Bombay mails; arrived at South ampton at 12.30 p.m. yesterday.

HEALTH OP LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the Report of the Registrar General.) The deaths registered in London, whiett in each of the two previous weeks were about 1,050, rose in the last week, ending Saturday, May 22, to 1,082. Ie the ten years, 1848-57, the average number of deaths in the weeks corresponding with last week was 1,030 ; but as the deaths of last week occurred in an increased popula- tion they can only be compared with the average, after the latter is raised in a degree proportionate to the in crease, a correction which will make it 1 132. Hence it is seen that the actual number of deaths now returned is less by 50 than the number which would have occurred if the average - 'Bf mortality, as calculated for the third week o • : A ped prevailed. Of the 4 -" -"s' l : l lKiuntiug to 251 from the order of diseases termen in the tables miasmatic, the largest pro portion is still contributed by whooping-cough, which carried off 72 children, of whom 52 dial within the first two years of life. ,Mr. Butterfield, tte registrar of the sub-dietrict,of Islington ' by whom 6 deaths from this complaint are returned for the week, states that it has been the fatal disease in 14 per cent. of the deaths regis tered by him since the 13th of April. Measles was fatal last week in the next degree, 60 children having died of it (4 of these in the snb-distriet of St. John, Westmin ster). There.were 48 deaths from scarlatina, sof which occurred in the sub-district of St. George Martyr, Holton. It was mentioned in last chil dren belonging to the samnparents tad died t scarlittina in Hyde park barracks ; it is now stated that the fourth and last child in the family has died from the disease. The wife of a labourer in the Royal Arsenal, Woolwich, died at 34, Charlotte-street, Plumstead, of "cholera, typhoid fever," after 6 days' illness. S . x persons who had attained the age of 20 years and upwards were re gistered in the week, the two oldest of whol e were a man, aged 96 years, who died in Great Dover-street, Newing ton, and a woman, aged 97, in Beaumont-street, Maryle• bone. Besides these, a labourer's widow died at the age of 100 years at 4, Pratt -alley, Whiteehv e i. Last week the births of 846 boys and 779 girls, in all 1,625 children, were registered in London. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the years 1848-57 the average number was 1,548. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer iu the week was 29.761 in. The highest barometrical reading was 29'97 in. on Thursday. The mean temperature of the Peek was 54'9 deg., which is 1 . 6 deg. above the averags of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher.) The highest point attained by the thermometer in the shade was 71 deg. on Friday ; the lowest point was 42'7 deg. on the day previ ous. The range of temperature in the week was therefore 28.3 deg. The mean daily range was 19'3 deg. The difference between the mein dew point temperature and air temperature was 4 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 72, com plete saturation being represented by 103. Th 3 mean temperature of the water of the Thames was 55'5 deg. The direction of the wind was south-west. Rain fell to the amount of 0 . 27 inch. On Wednesday afternoon there was a very heavy f quail of wind, accompanied by thunder and heavy rain. The composition of the water supplied by eight of the water companies in the metropolis has been determined for the month of April by Dr. R. D. Thompson, F.R.S., of St. Thomas's Hospital, and is represented in the sub sequent detail. It is proper to mention that the eater containing the largest amount of impurity happened to be taken after a fall of rain, when a distinct alterition in the composition of water derived from the surface drainage of an agricultural country can usually be de tected. In this detail I°, (one degree) of impurity is equivalent to one grain of foreign matter present die. solved in the water per gallon. For the scale of compa rison water about to be supplied to Glasgow from L)ch Katrine, and water supplied to Aberdeen from the Lee, are introduced. • Total Organs Companies. I m purity. Impurity.

PRICE OF . GoLc.—The7price of gold at Paris is about 1i per rnille, and the short exchange on London is 25.05 per pound sterling. On comparing these rates with the p r ice of 3/. 17 s . d. English Mint I per ounce for standard gold, it appears that geld 18 about 3-10ths per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from H a mburg the price of gold is 4 25 per mar k, an d th e sheet Exchange on London is 13.51 per pound sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is therefore rather morn than 1-10th per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days sight is about 1091 per cent., which, when compared with the Mint par between the two countries, shows that the exchange is slightly in favour of Esgland ; and, after making allowances for charges of transport and difference of interest, the present rate leaves a small profit on the importation of gold from the Ucited States. IMPRISONMENT OF A BOY FOR TRUNDLING A HOOP. —Through the exertion; of the clergy of Holy Trinity parish, Hull, and on their payment of the fine and costs, a little boy, who last month attained the age of ten years, has been released from Hull Gael, to which he was committed for seven days, for trundling his hoop in the middle of Wellington street, Which, being one of the widest streets in Hull, was iu use at the time of the offence as a stand for carriers' carts. It appears that this little boy, whose name is George Fester, son of a tradesman residing in Blackfriargate, and who is one of the pupils of the vicar's school, Was taken before the magistrate, to whom it was stated by a policeman that the hoop frightened the carriers' horses, but the boy said they were no horses to the carts, and only some sheep behind him. He was fined ls. and costs 3s. 6d., total 4s. 6d., and word sent from the court by a policeman to the parents ; the mother attended the court, the magis trate told her the charge, the fiae, and the costs, and asked her if she would pay ; she said she would not. The boy was taken to gaol, but during the remainder of that day was not put to work ; on the next day his hair was cut short, and on the following he was sent to pick oakum with some other boys, one of whom told him he was a pickpocket. On the boy being missed from school, the clergy interested themselves in his case, and on the fourth day they obtained his release,—Hull Packet. Yesterday the annual meeting of this charity was held at the Hanover-squire. Rooms—the Hon. Capt.' Maude, R.N., in the chair. The chairman, in opening the proceedings, said that the name of the institution was so comprehensive, that in itself it recommended it to the support of the British public. It would, he said, be difficult to realise the extent of the advantages which the present site, Frognal-house, Hampstead, afforded the children, unless one were acquainted with the locality of the old school in the east of London,. in a neighbour hood so degraded that the committee hesitated to allow the pupils to attend Divine service, lest on their way frOm the school-house to the church their eyes and their ears might be offended by the open profanity of life and conversation which abounded there. The report, after giving a history of the rise and progress of the institution, stated that the number of orphans whom it maintained and edu "cated was fifty. Laet Tear six left, for situations as domestic servants; having been trained in laundry work and cooking, and six similarly'qualified will leave in the course of the present year ; and it was a gratifyicg fact that not one of those girls whom it had sent out into the world had acted iu a manner to bring diSgracelupcin the institution: 'lt was also stated that the trustees of the will of the late Mrs. Kennedy had apportioned out of her estate, bequeated for charitable purpose, 2001.` to the in stitution, and the committee were in negotiation with the association for the relief of the wives, chil dren, and dependent relatives of seamen and - -marines in. the royal navy, too undertake OK pay- ment of certain annuities granted' by thit 'society on receiving 3,5001. their present value, and they intended to add to that sum 2,0001. more, and in vest the whole as the funded prop . :qty, of the charity. It appeared from the balance-sheet that the committee had in hand at the commencement of the past year a balance of 3,321/. 15s. 9d., which, with subscriptions to the amount of 994/. 3s. id., interest 831. Os. 9d., and 277/. ss. Bd. re ceived from the Patriotic Fund, made a total in come of 4,6761. ss. 3d. The expenditure was 2,036/. ss. 9d., leaving in hands a balance of 2,639/. 19s. 6d. Since the audit of accounts 56/. 1 18s. was collected in Hampstead by special appeal, and the Earl of Derby had forwarded 101. as his 1 subscription, with his consent to become a vice- , president of the charity. The report was adopted. . MADRAS MUSSULMAN SEPOYS. Accounts of the mutilation and torture of our murdered countrywomen in Bengal have been broadly affirmed, but slenderly substantiated by living sufferers-or eyewitnesses. If you will pub lish the accompanying statements, taken by me fr, m a recent number of the Madras Athenceum, the public may learn that atrocities similar to those with which Bengal Sepoys have been charged are certaiuly not unknown among their Madras brethren.---Yours obediently, May,24. SEMYD. " BANGALORE.—A murder case, which for atrocity and cruelty vies with the outrages' recently perpetrated in the North-west —excepting that in the present in• stance the murderers are Muesulatan Sepoye, and the victim a young woman of their own creed—has just been disposed of by the Judicial Commissioner in Mysore. We have the greatest disinclination to place the horrible in actual life before our readers, yet, as many of the advocates of the traditional policy in Eng land and elsewhere speak of clemency and tolerance to wards the harmless and docile people of Ilindostan, we look upon it as a matter of duty to place before the public such of the occurrences in every-day life that pass under our review as tend to develop the awful de pravity and present tendencies of the many.coloured tribes we are surrounded with. Some time last year, in the month of February, a Sepoy of the 35th Regi ment Native Infantry, at Hurryhur, was offended about some trivial matter with a young woman of loose cha racter named Jamablee, who resided in the same can tonment, and resolved on revenging himself. He found no difficulty in getting six of hie comrades and a bheesty of his corps to join him in the perpetration of the con templated outrage. Measures having been precancarted, the abovenamedSepoy and one of his comrades dogged the footsteps of Jatnahleeone evening, when seeing their intended victim seated in a hazier, they went up to her, and after greeting her courteously asked her in a casual way to come and partake of a glass of arrack with tlrrn. She unsuspecting consented to their pr )posal and ac companied them. They wended their way quite cheer fully, out of the Bazaar line, to the Ball-firing plain, in doing which they happened to meet, as if accidentally, the remaining five Sepoys and the ' bheesty.' When they had got here a bottle of arrack was brought, and while all seemed to partake of the intoxicating stuff, care of taken to make Jamahlee drunk. No sooner was this result produced than every one of these monsters ravished their poor victim, after which they carried her to a ruined temple on the banks of the Toombudra river close by, stripped her of her clothes and jewels, lit a fire, and roasted her alive, stomach downwards, pointed a bamboo stick and pierced her ear and other parts of her body with it, beat her with a rattan, and tortured her to death. Not satisfied with all this they brought the corpse back, and threw it on the hall-firing plain in the canton ment, in order, it appears, that all whd passed by might spit upon it.' Two of those eight wretches have been sentenced to death, and the remaining six to transporta• lion for life." THE AUSTRIAN TELEGRAPHS. A letter, dated Vienna, May 22, says :—As the correspondence between the British and Austrian Governments concerning the proposed submarine telegraph from Ragusa to Alexandria was sent to press some days ago, it may be well to inform you that the long mooted question of " to be or not to be" has just entered into a new phase. Sir John Young, the Lord Commissioner of the lonian Isles, deeming it necessary to have early intelligence cf what is pausing in the Greek provinces of European Turkey and in the kingdom of Greece, has informed the Austrians that they are at liberty to laydown a cable from Ragusa to Corfu, and another from Corfu to Zante. The matter, however, is not yet definitively settled, for four or five days ago an official telegram was received from London, in which it was asked " whether the Austrian Government proposed to construct a submarine telegraph be tween Ragusa and Alexandria, or between Corfu and Alexandria." A person, who is well informed of what passes in official circles, informs me that the question caused extreme surprise, as the Austrian Government has repeatedly expressed itself to the following effect :-1. Austria is willing to establish a telegraphic communication between Ragusa and Corfu and Colin and Zaute at its own expense, and without any guarantee from England. 2. Austrian c'lmpany will establish a telegraphic communica tion between Corfu and Candia (Crete) and Candia and Alexandria if England will join Austria in guaranteeing 6 per cent, on the capital expended. The two offers are entirely se pa r at e , but it would appear that the Austrian authorities have not yet succeeded in making the British Government under stand that such is the case. The outlay for laying an electric cable from Corfu to Candia, and thence to Alexandria would be 500,0001., and the interest, at 61. per cent., 30,0001. of which the Austrian Go vernment is willing to guarantee one-half.

The route selected for the experiment branched off at Charlton, through a narrow winding thoroughfare, at the back of Sir Thomas Wilson's pal k, aedabeve the elevation of the main road.- The train was cleverly . brought round and commenced the ascent, but iu consequence of the obstruction of a quantity of loose sand and gravel - which had been drifted by the late heavy rains, it came to a momentary standstill. The engine having been backed a couple ef yards, and the claws of the hind wheels distended so as to obtain a firmer grasp, the power of the machinery was exhibited to its fullest advantage. 'ln less than five minutes' delay the obstacle was completely surmounted, and the load was brought round a second curve into the Black heath road leading to the common. The 'Steep acclivity at this point again stoppelthe engine, and it was judged beyond the utmost power, of the en gine to proceed. Colonel Tulloh thereupon advised the disconnecting of the carriages Which'.were coupled together, so as to pass with one at a time. By employing the whole power of steal), however, the engine travelled steadily onward with i s entire load, proceeding down Mill-lane, and returned to the Arsenal, having performed the distance, about four miles iu 1 hour and.3o_ rninntes, The puffing usual to steam engines, which is of great disadvan tage in public roads, is in this invention ingeni ously obviated by exhausting the steam in the water tank, thereby creating an economy in fuel, the con sumption of which is calculated at about 7d. per hour.

Many distinguished- military authorities stated. that the position of military surgeons should be improved in every respect, so as toinduce men of science and ability to enter the service. It is a melancholy thing to see wtat stratagems the.Director-Gene' al is obliged - , to adopt in order to procure some kind of surgic it attendance for the army ; writing-to the 'different 'colleges; hospitals,. And dispensaries, begging -far-student-so:0 matter how. junior, offering them commissions it they pass a farce of an examination ; getting -the Colleges of Surgeons to reduce their curriculum to the lowest p essible standard, and: wishing the professors to puff up to the students the advantage's of entering th© a. my. - . - - From - the flagrant injustice shown to army surgeons after the Crimean war, it cannot be wondered at that -Surg onc, - bone fide. Surgeons, cannot be got for a w a r, as y e t no t of t en mon th s ' duration. To induce them. to go to the Crimea they were given 401. towards an ou'tit, which they were made to refund immediately after the peace. The Royal wrrrant, granting in6reased pay mid tank, and abolishing antiquated and musty regula tions, draWn up and almost signed, ivas rejected the moment the peace was proclaimed. They were put on half-pay in indecent has'e, and in the most summary and unjust manner; and these who were kept on full-pay were made to do double work ; six weeks' I:ave to men who worked their lives. and souls out in the deadly hospitals of the East ! This was unfair treatment to a class of officers who left 70 of their number in the ceme teries of the East—victims of their unceasing devo tion. It is undeniable that there'is an amount of discontent and dissatisfaction in the breast of every Military Surgeons, the sources of which ought _in fai!-Ttess towards them to be removed. There are. no rules for promotion, for home or foreign service, for pensions or allotn.ent of stations, &c., &c. A man may be kept in exile all his I,fe ; he may be ordered abroad, although there are 20 of his grade much longer at home, and complaint is unavailing ; be rarely or ever gets leave, even fur a day ; he is always in har ness ; his position as Surgeon of a regiment is most unsatisfactory, fur if he discharge his duty, he is at constant war with his colonel. He is supposed to look with assiduity to the preservation of the health of the men in his medical charge, and yet his rec tmmendatious can be put aside by the officer commanding, in th e orderly room basket, as so much waste paper. If a surgeon wish to keep on friendly terms with the colonel, who is to write the confidential report on his conduct, the sooner h 3 puts all ideas of n3ilitat y hygiene into one of his pill-boxes the batter ; consequently a surgeon either becomes listless and indifferent about adopting mea suresfor the preservation of the health of the men, or is bullied o tit of the regiment if he uphold his position with dignity, and discharges his duties in a scrupulous, conscientious manner, bykeeping a con stant supervision over the health of his men, and re porting anything which he considers detrimental to I it. Finally, when promoted to be surgeon, he has to serve in that rank for two years on the pay of an as'eiStant-surgeon—an 'just ice which is apparent to every one. These and a, legion of other . acts oft stupid injus ice prevent men of status from entering the army as surgeons. It is an undeniable fact that the state is a loser by not having the medical charge of regiments in the hands of scientific, able, and independent military. s argeons.—l reinaiu, Calcutta, • MILITARY SURGEON. 4th April, 1858.
