MPORTANT NEWS FROM AUSTRALIA. IIELI3ourtNE, JAN. I.—Last night a statement was made, that two men h-id arrive i from Gipps' Land with 10,0001. worth of gold, and intelligence that there was a oid supply for the whole world. It is impossible to get a pair of Boots made or mended in Melbourne : nothing is thought of or talked about but gold." " Another correspondent states that the price of a pair of Boots is 50s. ; a pair of strong Shoes, 20e." With such important informa tion before the emigrant, we need say fib iut the inconvenience attendant on going out unP - ovided with a proper supply ot Gothing, Boots, Shoes, Shirts, and Utensils, such as are inclu ed In the inimi table Outfits supplied by E. MOSES and SON. It is of the highest importance that the Emigrant should be provided with an Outfit of known suite Ality and specially adapted to the country he has chosen, as well as the business it is his intention to pursue. This is the pro minent feature in E. MOSES and SON'S Outfits. They keep a separate department in their gigantic estabishment for the Out fitting business. They have dispatched tnore business in that de partment than any house in the world , and they have concentrated the knowledge and experience of many years : so that it is every way calculated to prove the greatest advantage to all parties emigrating. E. MOSES and SON. are in a position to supply any number of Emigrants with every article they will require for the passage and the country to which they may go. The very reason able charges for Outfits at E. MOSES and SON'S are mighty con siderations for Emigrants ; the quality of their goods is nowhere to be equalled, and their complete suitability for any climate and occu pation is every way guaranteed.

No. 56.- . -Military., King William's Town, April 7, 1852. y Lrird,—My dispatch to your Lordship, No. 47, of the 17th ult., will have described the operations and niovemerits of the troops under my command up to that date. • 2. Shortly after its transmission, Lieut.-Colonel Per covet reported that,. in continuance of his operations he had comphilely cleared the Fi s h ,River Bush of the enemy, spoiling him of 350 bead of cattle, and many mats and horses; capturing also several stand of arms, and elaying,rnaay of his men. I - cannot too highly ecommen4 the very able, judicious, and soldier-like con duct of Lieut.-Colonel Perceval in ihe performance of a eirieiy arduous and difficult duty, which 'he effected by a succession 'of - movements so well 'Combined that the ser orice was carried eta with - the hiss of only 011 Q man killed sod hne wdemiled. ' The Lieut.-Colonel speaks in term* •of •greal praise7of the conduct. of . , Major .Armstrong of `the Caps Me - unted: Rifles, _and of - the troops and burghers eniployed, the latter numbering about 35 from the - district of-A.4mq. .. . • - . 3.

I regard_ Lieutenant-Colonel Perceval as an officer 'of "the highest. promise.. . . ' 4.. The troops under Majors General Somerset, after the enemy had been:dislodged from the Waterkloof and Fuller's Hoek e pursued him through the Kat river, ih evieg sent cavalry patrols into the passes of the Water kloot. The latter slew several of the 'fugitives, and . captured 38 horses!' , e • '5. The cold - dies of Lientetiatit:-Colonel Michel and LieutenanteColenel Eyre having joined me at the Blink water on tiiii 16th 'alt., I marched .on. the. 18th for the valley of the Chuinie. on the hue of the enemy's retreat into the Aenittolas. From that point, on the 21et ult., Li eu tenani-Coloneis Michel and. Eyre were ordered to penetrate the Inner' Amatolas,. while Lieutenant-Colonel Perceval„ having: been directed to march upon Fort Cox on the, completion, of his operations in the Fish River Bush," entered - The mountains on that side. The instruc etona to theie - officers are annexed. s • '6. 'Colonels Michel and Eyre carried on . four days' ,most.active operations, being joined on the third day by 'Colobel Perceval; destroying the enemy's villages, es pecially.-those .of Heitentot rebels, in his most formida ble holds; Colonel Eyre acting on the arc of the circle of which the. operations of Colonel Michel and Colonel Perceval were the chord: They captured all the cattle they ;saweenbout .50 head—and each - officer in his report regards the-flight of -the enemy and hisnbandonment of the Aosatotasns most complete.

In the after noon I marched with the whole force through the Lenge and bivotricked on the Keiskamma. On the following day, the 24tb, I marched to Fort Cox." - ' • : 7; I inclose 'he copy Of. a report from the Gaika Com misseoner, corroborative of those of the officers in com mand of patrols. • - 8. These operations having'been thus most effectually and euergetioelly carried out, I moved my head-quarters -on'the 25th ale e to Fort Cox, where I had assembled the troops under Colonels. Michel, Eyre, cud Perceval, on issuing the general instructions annexed. I 9. Having established Colonel Michel with his column at Fort C - Ox, ecoupyieg Mount Macdonald, I, on' the fol lowing day, the-26thult, returned to heed quarters at King - William's Town, moving at the same time the commands of Colone*s Eyre • and Perceval for the pur pose of posting the former in the Keilkamma 'Hoek, and the latter on' the 'range of the Quilti Quilli. Previously, however, to their taking up their positions, I directed COlonel Eyre, w ith Colonel Perceval, thoroughly to penetrate and clear the great forest of Perk', the Buffalo poorts, and Murray's Krantz e all great Tesorts of the enemy. This service, alter two days' energetic and 'de termined operationsew a s most effectually performed, up wards of 100 head of cattle and several horses having been naptured, great nu mbers - of - villages burned in the very forest, and large fields of cultivation destroyed on Ilan verge f the woods. Scarcely any resistance was offered tiy the enemy. Colonel Eyre describes these forests as more dense and difficult to penetrate than even those of Fuller's Hoek and the Blink,water. While these Operations were in progrese, I detached Captain moody, of the .Reyal.Engi nee rs, with a strong detach ment from Kin g - Williams Town s to post himself be tween 'Murray's Krantz and the fade Berg, to intercept fugitives driven before Colonel Eyre. 10. The 12th Lencers had previously marched.to oc cupy the Kabousie Neck. Major Tottenham, command ing the regiment during the 'temporary illness of Lieut.- Colonel Pole, reporie that, on his march thither he captured 78 head o f 'cattle and a number of g oats, all being driven . towards the K-i; and that he observed 'ergo herds in. the distance rapidly moving in the same direction, indicating a general ttek. 11. pa the evening of the 28th ult. I received infor mation corroborative of the above, on which I could rely, that large herds of Gaika tattle, fl-sing from the Ama tole's, had ,been Collected at the junction of the Doors and Thomas rivers with the KO, a country well adapted for concealnierit and defence. I therefore immediately sent orders to C o l one l E y r e not to Occupy,. as originally intended, the ifeiak . ikauna Hoek, but to detach Colonel Perceval for thee purpose, and. moving his own column to the Kebousie N-eck, to take with him the 12th Lan cers and make a rapid movement to seise. these Gaika cattle; a se t<viee - for which his enterprising character well adapts hina. - I at -the same time detached froeeKing William:Vs Town Captain Rebertson, of the' Iroyal Engi neers, in command of It' patrol of 259 - men:, to complete the work Of devastation throUghout the Isele Berg, a thickly wooded ride trending from .hurray's Kran tz eastward to .Hangman's Beath and. lying between King William's TOwn and the Kabousie. *- ; 12.

Having, according to my direoticrvi, ,gained the.. Kabousie Neck, and been joieed by the 12th .timicers, he made a rapid march on the indicated pueition on the Kei, which- he reached at' daybreak on the 31st ult. The enemy was completely t +ken by, seripriserand Colonel Eyre coming on the fresh spoor or Track of cattle, at once pursued it dawn the bed of the Kei.

Colonel 'E ire had previously detached Major Armstrong with 100 cavalry to his left, to take possession of a diffi cult pass, , strongly occupied , by the . enemy, mqunted and on e foot. , After completing this "service, that officer, by a dexterous manceuvre, in which he appeared to fly before the enemy, lured him into some comparatively open ground, then, suddenly turning, drove him back, with considerable less in killed, charging himself-directly to the front with the 'detach ment of Cape Corps and Armstrong's Horse, while Cap tain Digby's troop of the 12th Lancers - fell upon the right rear of the enemy. Major Armstrong subse quently captured 100 head of cattle; the total nuinber taken during the-grand operations amounted to 1,391.

My position has been-as arduous, and one of as great -difficulty, as ever man was placed in. The origin of this war involves a most • ' intricate and truly complicated question, requiring a g eneral It I view to be t a k en o f antecedent subjects.

Tbio bo, bower' r e b n ight " a ' bey a war unavoidably of gradual progression to insure the result - I anticipated and have attained, and one which could not have been conducted differently. I speak with 'some experience in war on a large scale as well as of a de sultory character. When regular armies are opposed to' each other a signal victory may decide the fate of a na tion. In a war with barbarians, who fight only when it so pleases them, avoiding concentration, but who are still determined to resist, the contest is necessarily of long duration. I may, therefore, proudly derive satis faction from the reflection which has led me to record these facts, that this war has been brought to the re quired conclusion with that expeditio❑ which all the peculiar circumstances permit, while ' during its pro - grass neither soldier nor troop horse has ever wanted his daily ration. Every fort and post is well supplied with provisions and ammunition; large depots of the munitions of war are at head-quarters and at Graham's Town, and I have thus been recently enabled to make considerable reductions in the transport—a very expen sive branch. I have, br en well supported by the Com missariat and the Civil Department of the Ordnance, and I enclose a copy of my General Order as a record of their respective merits. 23. I transfer the Civil Goveknment without a single particle of business in arrear, and with a treasury with out a debt; while all the civil officers have worked under me with energy and zeal. The War impending over the Orange River territory, with -all- its evils • end horrore ; has been averted; while, had its proseeutiotf,become im perative, I had collected•an -ample depot of commissariat supplies at Bloem Fontein. Amicable relationship.haa been established with the Trans Vaal Emigrant Boers— the refractory native chiefs are restoring their plunder, and submitting to the conditions imposed on theca-,--the, turbulent Bdefa within the Sovereignty, whets convicted . of overt acts of disloyalty, have bad heavy pecuniary fines inflicted on them, many of which, to the amount of 1,0751, have already been promptly paid, Which I have caused to be placed in the Imperial chest to its credit— property rises considerably in value—and the revenue of the Sovereignty exceeds its expenditure. The flourishing condition of Ntetal is deeply indebted to the able and judicous government of Mr. Pine, who, in a • letter to me of. the 20th of March, thus 'expresses himself:— "The only service I have really rendered your - Excel.. lenoy was'the sending the contingent into the Sove reignty, and the greater part of any merit there maybe attached to that service belongs partly to you. It is an easy thing for a subordinate - officer to do his duty when he feels that he has a chief above him who, pro vided he acts honestly and straightforwardly, wil l sup port him whether he succeeds or fails. • Such a chief I have had in your Excellency." •• 24. I relinquish the command of the troops as ex pressed in the General Order annexed, at a period when, according to the reports I have received. from officers in command and other sources, the ma,s of the Gaiktis have been expelled from the - Amatolas; when . the Kafirs, cis as well as trans Keisn, have repeatedly sued for peace, and when the war is virtually terminated; its continuance having been prosecuted to visit these turbulent savages with that retribution which justice demands, and accord ing to the injunctions in your Lordship's dispatch of the 13th of May, 1851, conveyed in the following terms:— " Your first care, before any permanent arrangements can be thought of, must be to put an end to the war; but desirable as it is that this should be accomplished as speedily as possible, I cannot too strongly express my opinion that you ought on no account. to accept from the rebel tribes any imperfect submission, and that yon should not allow hostilities to be concluded by anything but their complete . subjection and unconditional sur render. It is thus. only that a real peace, and not a short and hollow truce, can be obtained."—l have, &c., H. G. SMITH. P.S.-Bth of April,lBs2. Since closing this despatch, while waiting to receive the Governor and Commander-in-Chief, I have received the accompanying cAnmunicaticn from the chief San dilli, through Lieutenant-Colonel Perceval, commanding one of the column, in the A matolas. The Governor and Commander-in-Chief, whose proclamation and ge neral order announcing his assumption of the government and command of the army, by which I am removed from authority, have been promulgated, is expected every hour. I have, therefore, given it as my opinion to Colonel Mackinnon, the chief commissioner, that he should reply to the effect that Sanddli is aware he ought to make application to the Gaika Commissioner placed by me at Fort Cox for the express purpose of receiving such messages, and I have also given Colonel Cloete, the Quartermaster-General, my opinion that he should direct the officers in command of columns in the mean time to continue hostilities. Lieutenant-Colonel Perceval reports of his opera tions—" On the sth instant I moved up the Gulu River, and searched the kloofs between the Gulu and Doorn Mountains. Under the krantz. and in one of the kloofs, we succeeded in capturing 219 head of cattle, killing two Kafirs, without any casualty on our part. At three o'clo6k, A X., on the 6th inst. I marched along the ridge between the Gulu and Keiskamma rivers to a krantz ander the Doorn Mountains, where we succeeded in fall ing in with the enemy's cattle, killing two K,firs, whose assegais were secured, and wounding some others, and one Hottentot. After searching the various kloofs we captured 296 head of cattle, together with some horses. We returned to camp at half-past four o'clock P,M after two days' very fatiguing work." Colonel Perceval's exertions are most meritorious. Major-General Somerset has just reported 'that Lieu tenant-Colonel Napier, in command of a patrol, captured on the 7th inst. (yesterday), in very difficult ground, near the Thomas River, 3 120 head of cattle, 70 horses, and 1,500 goats, killing upwards of 50. of the enemy. This makes a total of 4,500 bead of cattle captured by t h e troops under the Major-General in his pursuit of the enemy from Balfour. Captain Tylden, Royal Engineeri, 'whose force from Whittlesea was attached to Major-General Somerset, thus reports:—".The' party who ascended on the left flank and first turned the cattle, were led by Com mandant J. Holden Bowker and Lieutenants Mason and Warner, and that on the right by Captain AUsten and Lieutenant Arnold, North Victoria Native Levy; and I have on this occasion brought the names of these officers to your notice on account of the gallant and deliberate manner in which 950 head of cattle and 50 horses were wrested from the enemy in the face of a powerful re sistance, the enemy attacking our rear and both flanks in order to recapture their cattle. Being, however, in strong ground, favourable for taking the cattle out of the ravines, we succeeded in bringint them up to the open heights, although the enemy followed on our rear until repeatedly repulsed. A very gallant affair occurred as a sergeant of the Cape Mounted Rifles, with 17 men of his corps, was conveying these reports from the Major-General. H e fell in at night on the Golonci, a rivulet thirty-five miles hence, with a party of Kafirs and caqle. The Hottentot sergeant immediately attacked them, killed several of the enemy, took arms and assegais, and brought off five horses and 19S head of cattle. It graciaus ,me much, to be thus able in my last dis patch to report so favourably of the Cape Corpe. The position of affiirs in British Kafraria is now clearly developed, and the contents of the above dispatch corroborated.. H. G. SMITH. Schedule of Enclosures in Governor Sir H.

My informant saw no cattle, and only three fires, and he states that the Kafirs have moved to wards the Gwilligwilli Mountains and the Buffalo Poorts, being unable to remain in this n-ighbourhood during the operations of the last few days. While many of the Gaikas have actually crossed the Kei, end not a few have dispersed themselves among the friendly tribes, there are yet many who will, with the chiefs; continue to conceal themselves in the mountains, awaiting the arrival of his Excellency Sir H.

King William's Town, April 2. The troops moved from Fort Cox, according to the " Memorandum of Movements" of the 24th ult., already published. Lieutenant-Colonels Eyre and Perceval, before taking. up their positions in the Keiskamma Hoek and on the Quilli Quilli, moved, by his Excellency's instructions, to clear the forest of Perie, the Buffalo Poorts, and Murray's Krantz—a service which was very effectually performed, with but slight opposition, upwards of 100 head of cattle and seven horses being captured. The 12th Lancers moved on the 28th ult. from King William's Town to Kabousie Neck, and on their march captured 78 head of cattle and a number of goats, trek ing towards the Kei, with pack oxen. Information having reached his Excellency, during Colonel Eyre's operations at the Buffalo Poorts, that numbers of (hike cattle were collected at the Thorn and Thomas Rivers, orders were sent to him to march immediately to the Kabousie, tulle with him the 12th Lancers, and endeavour to effect a capture. Colonel Perceval was at the same time directed to move into the Keiskamma Hoek. Colonel Eyre's rapid movement is . attended with every prospect of success. In the Wolf Valley and heights above it several shots have been exchanged with the 60th Rifles and 45th Re eitnent, under Lieutenant Colonel Nesbitt and Major K)le; • and five soldiers of the 60th Rifles slightly wounded, apparently from trees. Cdonel Michel had got his guns, with incredible ex ertion, upon Mount Mitetnelcf, and is there established; while Colonel Perceval is in's position to co-operate with him from the Keiskamma Ho, k. have been this day receiv ed from neral Somerset up to the I st inst.
