The march of Sir Andreas Stockenstrorn and Colonel Johnst ine upon the Kye is mentioned in communications before us as being not a very difficult and hazardous operation. The former, we perceive, lays great stress upon the moral effect of a bold forward movement. There is great force in this, but, although we are no advocate for retreat in dealing with the Kafirs, still it cannot escape observation, that a failure here might be attended with the most fatal results to the whole colony. That the Kafirs are not so completely subdued as many may be led to suppose, appears very evident from recent circumstances. We refer to the slaughter of fourteen waggoners—to the brutal exhumation of the three Hottentots killed a few days previously—and to the banging of their bodies in terrorem in the road by which our troops were about to march. Add to this their ap pearance 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 unavoidable that although the Kafir may be cowed, he is not subdued; and that, in fact, he is only changed from a bold, open enemy to a cautious, stealthy assassin, and in which cha racter he may do more mischief, if we are not very care ful, than in any other he could possibly assume. But little faith is to be put in the profession of these Kafir emissaries who have frequently visited the Go vernor's camp. These women are employed as spies, and they tell a plausible story of the humility and peni tence 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 appreciate all this, and he has treated them accordingly. Still the Kafir is incredibly cunning, and the colony must take care that it is not 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 and com plete success. The latest news from the frontier 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 twenty-one waggon- Jrivers left the General's camp to go in search of Kafir corn. After proceeding a few miles, seven of them re turned; the remainder (all Hottentots) persisted, were surrounded by a large body of Kafirs, and of the whole party fourteen only escaped. " Umballa and Macomo have again sent in for peace, out their messengers were not allowed to enter the camp. "Sir Andreas Stockenstrom is at the Kabuzi, Dohne's station, with his division. " Colonel Johnstone was to join him immediately, and ?hey were to proceed to Kreli's country for cattle. "His Excellency remains at Fort Beresford with the infantry to patrol the mountains. " Colonel Somerset has returned with his corps to Fort Peddie. " Four or five spans of oxen, in the employ of the Commissariat, have been adroitly carried off by the Kafir marauders, in the immediate vicinity of the camp. ' RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS.

V N Was cc.:;), ND, which a few resolute men might de cupied by a numerous body of the e ; CHARLES LENNOX Captain Grenadier Guards, A. s , Secretary. from The following summary of the weeic is taken the African Journal of September 3 : The events of the past week confirm and deepen every impression previously made, that the Kafirs will not, in open field or in fair fight, confront the British troops, Colonel Hare intimates, in his official dispatch, that the Kafirs dad 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 unceas. ingly 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 unb ro k en tranqu illity— ne i t h er a sound heard, nor a glimpse seen, of an enemy ; caution then becomes relaxed--prudential measures are ne gleoled—when, ro, in an unguarded moment, the fce suddenly springs forth; and either embrues his hand in blood, or sweeps away the property of the slready im poverished, and, for the moment, panic-stricken farms r. A warfare of this character is most harassing to regular troops, and oug ht not to b e t h ou,;ht of 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 have invested that - celebrated fastness, could hale climbed its precipices, and scoured its kloofs, with such trifling results as these we find recorded. But still such is the fact, and yet, perhaps, for the time these operations lasted, no British army ever endured a greater amount of hardship, or dis played more intrepidity, activity, and zeal, than our forces on the occasion in question. Under such circum stances, the main object should be to secure the colony against the inroads or this enemy, as, until this is done, every movement in Kafirland will be comparatively use less.

Her Majesty's ship Sappho, 16 guns, Commander Gambier, arrived this morning at Spithead from the Capo of Good Hope, bringing 16 days' later news than that already published. Her dates are—Simon's Bay, September the 4th; St. Helena, the 16th; Ascension, the 21st. The Sappho put into Torbay on the 21st, from stress of weather. She also brings a mail and papers to the 3d of Sep tember from the Cape. The Apollo troop-ship proceeded to Waterloo Bay a few days before the Sappho left, to land the troops she brought from Monte Video, and, having arrived off the place and anchored, tremendous " rollers" set in, and, in endeavouring to get under way, she parted with the whole of her anchors, and was nearly lost. She returned to Simon's flay with the troops still on board, and was to sail after procuring anchors for Algoa Bay on the Bth of September, to disembark the troops. The squdron was thus distributed on the 4th of Sep tember : The President, 50, Captain Stanley, flag of Rear- Admiral Dacres, was at the Mauritius; also the Snake, 16, Commander Brown. The Thunderbolt steam-sloop, Commander Boyle, Mauritius, having been tfiratged of September from the nel to order all the cruizers to ththfliMenanibinna Chan. The President (we learn by the Thunderbolt) was to sail for Zanzibar, and return to Simon's Bay through the Mozambique Channel. The Helena, 10, Commander C. Ricketts, was in Simon's Bay when the Sappho left, having arrived from the Mozambique on the 3d of August. She had lost 18 men by fever and dysentery, and sent upwards of 20 to the hospital at Simon's Bay. No officers had died, and they were all well when the Sappho left. She was to be ready for sea about the 16th of September. The Cleopatra, 26, Captain Wyvill, was cruising be tween Mozambique and Quillimaue. She had captured a large barque of 407 tons, named the Constantia, be longing to Rio, fitted as a whaler, but having all the appearance of being engaged in the slave trade. She was sent to the Cape for adjudication in charge of Mr. Charles, Master of the Cleopatr a . Lieutenant Gibson, of this ship, died on the 27th of July, off Mozam bique. The Resistance troop-ship, Captain Patsy, was to sail from Simon's Bay for England the day after the Sappho left. She may, therefore, be expected hourly. The Conway, 26, Captain Kelly, arrived at Simon's Bay on the 31st of August, from the Mauritius, to un dergo a thorough refit, having been lying at the Mauri tius for nearly two years. She has during her stay there been tolerably healthy. There was no man-of-war at St. Helena, but a small slave-schooner, fully equipped, a prize to the Kingfisher , was lying there for adjudication. The Larne, 18, Com mander Brisbane, was hourly expected from the coast of Africa. At Ascension were the Actaeon, 26, Captain Mansell, C. 8., senior officer; the Tortoise, store and guard-ship, Commander Morrell; and the Cacique, steam prize, in charge of a warrant officer. Ascension was very healthy. Turtle was exceedingly scarce; there were only two in the pond when the Sappho left. The Sappho is perf ect l y healthy, and has brought no invalids from the squadron. She has been absent from England three years and a-half, during which time she has been employed. cruising in the Mozambique and on the south-west coast of Africa. She has captured seven slavers—five in the Mozambique and two on the south west coast, and has been throughout very healthy. The Command er -i n -Chi e f OFFICIAL DISPATCHES.

I acquainted you, for the Commander-in-Chief's information, that I in . tended to more on the following morning to support and act with Sir Andreas Stockenstrom, in our proposed operation of scouring and clearing the Amatola valley. It had been my intention to move my force at three o'clock in the morning, so as to arrive at day light to the entrance to the ridge, along which I had been informed I could take my guns. This intention, however, of moving at so early an hour I was compelled to aban don, in consequence of a brisk fire having been kept up on the camp during the night, which led me to apprehend that the enemy might be in some force in my neigh bourhood, and therefore that a march in the dark might not only meet with interruption from the e nemy, but lead to confusion amongst my own force, from the fact of its being almost wholly composed of fresh raised Hot tentot levies and Fingo companies. I consequently de termined not to move until daybreak, having, however, as a precautionary measure, detached the Hottentot com panies, under Captain Hogg, 7th Dragoon Guards, and Field Captain Reyneveld, an hour previous, with orders to possess themselves of the high range of hills that overlooked my camp,. and there to await my arrival with the guns and remaining part of the division. These companies ascended the hill in perfect silence, and gained the summit without being observed, killing a K afir Ben try who had not perceived their approach. The distance from my camp to the entrance of the gorge through which I was to pass with my guns might perhaps be above three miles, which I reached without seeing a single Kafir. I immediately caused the kloofs to be entered by the Hottentot and Fingo levies, whilst I moved on, keep ing the head of 'the aloof with my guns and the detach. ment of the Infantry of the line, which were only suffi cient to form their escort. In this manner the kloofs were completely scoured from the head of the valley on this side, and we continued our work until we reached the hill which *overlooks Fort Cox. I have great satisfaction in communicating to the Commander-in-Chief the very excellent conduct of the whole of the force under my command ; particularly the Hottentot companies and Fingo levies, on whom devolved the arduous task of scouring the kloofs, a duty which they performed in such a manner as to merit the greatest praise.

Their fire during the early part of the day was extremely brisk, and at times heavy ; and these operations, upon the whole, of which we had an occasional view from our several positions, must have been extremely fatiguing, and were attended with complete success ; having, as I learn, killed about forty Kafira, and wounded many more. On our side the loss was five killed and three wounded in my division ; the ascertained loss of the enemy, of bodies seen, was thirty-seven killed, and I think the number wounded must have been considerable, judging from the extremely heavy fire. kept up during the day is the kloofs. I have no correct information of Sir Andreas' loss, but I learn from his aide-de-camp that it was much the same as our own. Having moved along the range of mountain until I reached that point which overlooks Fort Cox, I at first thought of proceeding to take up that position for the night, but, having lost sight of Sir Andreas, whose fire seemed, as far asi could discover, to have ceased about 2 o'clock, P.M , I was apprehensive of losing my com munication with him by taking up that position, and I therefore determined upon returning to my camp,—a point from which I could more readily co-operate with Sir Andreas had he returned to the head of the valley, and at which, as I subsequently learned, he had formed his bivouac fur the night. It is evident that the body of Kafirs have left that valley, and I do not ,think that, taking the whole of the small parties that are concealed in the numerous kloofs therein, there are more than few hundreds, and to this conclusion I am the more led from the fact, that through out our course on that day (the 30th of July), not a single head of cattle was seen by either Sir Andreas' division or mine. Sir Andreas having yesterday sent his aide-de-camp to inform me of his intentipu Grit-mining from his bivouac at the head of the valley, two miles distant from my camp, and proceeding, in the course of the day, to Bui n's-hill, from which position he would move in the night to examine the country about the sources of the Keiskama, I instantly decided upon affording the co operation of the whole of my division by a movement also on this point ; and, after my men had dined, I started from my camp about 2 o'clock, P.M., yesterday, arriving here about half-past 6. I fully expected, from the verbal communication made to me by Sir Andreas' aide-de-camp, that I should have found his division some where in this neighbourhood, but I have neither heard nor seen anything of him. _ _ The express — containing his Excellency's dispatch passed to the camp during the night, and at the very moment of its arrival, on being forwarded to this place, I had the troops formed for the purpose of moving to Skonda-hill, which overlooks the Debe Flats, in order to took out for his Excellency; but on receiving that com munication I at once decided on sending back to order the removal of my camp and supplies, which remain at my former position, to this point, the troops having marched here with only three days' biscuit in their havresacks, and without a single waggon, as on the pre vious move. Mr. Stretch having kindly offered his services to con vey this dispatch, will be able to explain anything which I may have omitted to mention.—l have, &e. J. HARE, Colonel. Lieutenant-Colonel Cloete, K.H., Deputy- Q uartermaster- General. P.S.—Four o'clock P.m.— Sir A. Stockenstrom has just arrived, having left his division in the Amatola valley, within a few miles of this. He proposes returning im mediately to his camp at the Tyuwie Hoek, for the pur pose of getting a supply of provisions and ammunition, and for making arrangements to move his camp to where mine is at present, under the Amatola height, and establishing his force somewhere about the Leney River, between Burn's-hill and the Tabendodo. These arrange ments will take at least four or five days. Sir Andreas requests that I will communicate to his Excellency the satisfaction that he has experienced dur ing the operations at the manner in which all under his command performed their duty; and he would particu larise the spirited conduct of the Fingoes under Mr. Crause as deserving of especial notice. Amatola Camp, Aug. 1. Sir,—l have the honour to report my proceedings since my late communication from Shiloh, where I posted my left wing in such a posture as to check the Tambookies as well as Kafirs, and to be ready to join me to the south of the great mountain range. On the 21st ult. I proceeded to Elands Post, and ar ranged with Captain Sutton, to whose zealous co-opera tion I am much indebted, the necessary measures for the advance of the Kat River Contingent into the field, and for the protection of that part of our frontier. On the 22d I proceeded to the camp of my right wing, which I had ordered to take post on the Chumie Ridge. Having communicated with his Honour Colonel Hare, and Lieu tenant Stokes (deputed for that purpose by his Excel lency the Commander-in-Chief), I marched the right baggage - Mid - waggons unaer a - strong guars at tnatposy started thence at dusk on the 26th with 700 men in ex pectation of attacking, at daybreak on the 27th, the ;mat force of the Kafirs which was reported to have concentrated in the forests at the head of the Chumie. We proceeded throughout the night, but as soon as day dawned became aware that the enemy had abandoned this stronghold. I nevertheless caused the several re cesses to be scoured to the tops of the mountains. Some shots were exchanged with straggling parties of ICafirs, and a few of them were killed. I then deemed it im portant to push forward my camp and show a determina tion to keep possession of the country; my waggons were, therefore, brought to the Chumie missionary sta tion during the night of the 28th, and, having on the same day communicated in person with Colonel Hare at his camp, I made my preparations for attacking the Amatola mountains and fastnesses. _ _ I had directed ry left wing, under Commandant Jou bert, to move from Shiloh, 800 strong, to join the Kat River Contingent, 400 strong, at the foot of the Loo beery (Gaika's kop), and fall on the Chumie forests from the north, whilst I entered them from the south ; but a thick fog and the mistake of the guide prevented that zealous commander from joining me before the 28th. Soon after sunset on the 29th I left my encampment (in charge of Field Cornet Kruger with 200 men) 600 strong, and, taking up Joubert with his 1,200, ascended the western face of the Amatola range, the lesser summit whereof we reached about midnight. Here I left a re serve of 500 strong in charge of our horses, and detached to my right Assistant-Commandant Botha with 200 of the Kat River Legion to keep open my communication with Colonel Hare, who was to make a simultaneous movement against the lower part of the A . matola, as agreed between us. An attack made on his Honour's camp during the night, as perceived by us from the re peated vollies and flashes of firing, delayed his Honour's march till morning, but not so as to diminish its effi ciency. Whilst the darkness continued we saw nu merous lights throughout the whole of the Amatola kloofs and jungles, indicating a concentration of great force. At daybreak my division rushed down the eastern declivity with the utmost alacrity, in hope of some decisive struggle ; the alarm signals of the scouts were heard from every peak ; and bodies of men were seen assembling on the several elevations rising above the forests. My force was at once divided into se veral subdivisions—every kloof, precipice, and bush, where any party of the enemy was perceived, was rushed at and attacked with spirit. The enemy saw that their only chance was in flight, and accordingly, after two or three attempts to concentrate in apparently tenable positions, they were seen to fall back from ridge to ridge, as they found'us making our way through the thickest forests 'and the steepest mountains. Nothing deserving the name of a battle can be said to have taken place, but the spirited rush of .my men clearly struck I panic into their opponents, and where an attempt at a stand was made, the determination of the former put a speedy end to the struggle; 39 dead bodies of the Kafirs were seen, and how many more fell in the jungles as well as the number of wounded, it is imposible to esti mate. The loss on our side is five killed, and four severely wounded. About three P.M. my several detachments were seen descending the steep mountains much fatigued after the repeated night marches and climbing and descending so many precipitous elevations, but the Kafirs, except a few stragglers in the distance, had disappeared, and, con sistently with my policy above stated, I resolved upon not receding, and to keep possession of the Amatola. I consequently encamped in this valley, and shall bring up y heavy baggage to and ov e r th e K e i s k ama forthwith.rills will at once show the enemy that their strongholds are and must be ours, and Krell even must begin to doubt whether the Kat or the Bashee is to be the colo nial boundary. On the moral effect of this idea I will not comment. I have to thank every officer and man under my com mand for their spirit, zeal, and patience under excessive fatigue whilst my command has lasted, but particularly for the last several days. On no single occasion was any hope given to the enemy by the least hesitation on the part of the smallest detachments to rush upon the most dangerous jungles in the possession of the Kafirs, and one instance of gallantry I cannot forbear mentioning more particularly. On debouching from ene of the forests, I perceived a body of Fingoes, led on by Lieu tenant Charles Crause, soling a precipitous rocky bluff, in possession of a hWy of Kafirs, who were defending the position with great advantage and determination. Seeing their danger, I rushed up the steep, with the Burghers, who surrounded me, but reached the con tested summit only in time to witness the complete suc cess of the above brave party, who, supported by Cap tain Joseph Read on the opposite side of the peak, had carried the position, the Kafirs leaving eight dead bodies on the spot ; Our side lost two dead and three wounded. The operations of Colonel Hare, I find, were success fully carried out on my right. I heard the heavy firing of his division throughout the day. His Honour, I am glad to lean, from my aide-de-camp, whom I sent to his . camp yesterday, speaks in high terms of the conduct of Assistant-Commandant Botha, and the detachment of the Kat River Legion which I sent to act under his orders, and I have to thank his Honour for his cor diality and readiness to afford me every assistance in his power. Yesterday and to-day were devoted to the mare coin- • plate scouring of the fastnesses bordering this valley _ , down as far as Fort Cox, whence I have just returned, and where I had an interview with Colonel Hare, ana stated to his Honour my intenti9i of advancing frArthw eastward to attack the upper Keiskama and Buffalo as soon as my provisions and ammunition come up from Chumie. A Kafir prisoner just taken states that Sandilfa; Mo coma, and Botman, were all three with all their forces in the forests of this valley when we entered it on the morn ing of the 30th, and that the first and last were with the division which opposed me, whilst Macomo was in the kloof where Botha was engaged. As matters now stand, considering myself sufficiently strong here, I have this morning detached a body of 100 men to reinforce the protecting Shiloh and Tarka line, as the Kafirs retreating hence may attempt some sur prise in that quarter, under the auspices of Mapassa.— I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient humble servant, A. STOCKENSTROM, Commander -General. Lieutenant-Colonel Cloete, K.H., Deputy-Quartermaster- General. _ Caboosie Camp, Aug. 5. P.S. I forwarded this to Colonel Hare on the 3d - inst., for the purpose of being perused and forwarded tollim, but his Honour did not think that he should have an opportunity of communicating with his Excellency before I should. Since then this division has been scouring the country from the Amatola hither, but it is evident that the enemy abandoned all his strongholds as soon as they were attacked with vigour, for we have been upon the spoor of vast numbers, flying in the direction of the Kei, whilst the great forests are left tenantless ; but our cavalry is in such a state that overtaking the flying Kafirs is out of the question. EXTRACT OF A DISPATCH FROM HIS HONOUR COL. HARE, C. 8., &H., ADDRESSED TO LIEUT.-COLONEL CLOETE, DEPUTY - QUARTERMASTER. GENERAL. Fort White, Aug. 7. Ra o Aget,egthtf4Pfiistructions in his Excellency's memorandum of August 2, I marched my division on Tuesday, the 4th instant, directing my march upon the mountains in the distance to my front from Fort Cox, which Mr. Stretch informed me were the Guil liguilli Mountains, and upon the west side of which I was ordered to act with my division (the second divi sion), and that of Sir Andreas acting on the northern, eastern;and southern sides. The whole country, from my position at Fort Cox to those mountains, is covered with bush, and in my front extremely dense. Unfortunately amongst all the guides and interpreters in my camp, I could not find a single one who had ever heard of the Guilliguilli mountains, although they knew there was a stream of that name on the other side of the mountains mentioned by me, or who could afford the slightest information with respect to the roads, or whe ther they were practicable for the guns. I consequently, the day previous to my marc h, sent a strong reconnoi tering party, under Captain Wright (my aide-de-camp), who appeared to have more knowledge of the country than any other person near me. The result of Captain Wright's reconnoissance was, that the road was not practicable for guns. I therefore left them' in position at Fort Cox, taking with me a three-pounder, which was brought, without difficulty, over the worst passes. On his passage through the bush in search of a road, that officer reported to me having seen several bodies of Kafirs, some of which were on the trek with their cattle and women, and directing their course to the mountains alluded to. On his return they followed and waylaid his party at the passes and drifts, wounding two men, with a loss to themselves of eight killed (of whom the bodies were seen), and many wounded. Two horses, and about a dozen head of cattle, were captured on this occasion. In consequence of this, I deemed it right to acquaint Sir Andreas Stockenstrom, who had not moved from the valley of the Amatola, re commending his march in a parallel direction with mine, in order to prevent their escape. Sir Andreas, in reply, informed me that he could completely meet my views, by crossing with his divi sion the range of mountains which bounds the valley of the Amatola on the east. Although at too great a dis tance to see his force, I could clearly discover his line of movement, by the firing of huts, 84c., in the direction in which he was proceeding. During my advance to the base of the mountain, twelve or fourteen miles off, we did not find a single Kafirman, but evident traces of their being on the move forward were perceptible. Some cattle and many goats were taken during this day's march, one Kafir having been shot by a detached party under Captain Eyneveld. Having found a convenient place with respect to water, I took up my bivouac for the night near the head of the river Xaxa, under the mountain, from which Kafirs in numbers were discovered in the bush above us; but it being then dark, and the men greatly fatigued after their day's 'Work, it was too late to enter the very dense jungle to attack them. The following morning every ridge and kloof was scoured from the base to the summit of the mountain without resistance of any kind, the men having abandoned it, leaving their women and some cattle be hind; of the latter about 300 were captured, and about * A ni ountain, and continny m m ni a e kli v tn i rsqu t been t l t t% Keiskama, where I bivouacked for the night, having cleared the country on my way. Some women were seen, who appeared quite at ease, and without a feeling of danger remained quietly at their huts. From these women, as well as from a prisoner who was taken in the bush, I learned that Sandilla, Macomo, and Botman had been there, but had fled over the moun tain on the approach of the troops, leaving orders for their men to follow them. By the concurrent statements of die women and prisoner, it would appear that the Ka firs had decided upon returning towards the colony, and this seems to be confirmed by numerous spoors of con siderable bodies having been seen by my skirmishing parties going in that direction. This morning the division has returned to Fort Cox, and when this report is sent off to his Excellency, I in tend making a search myself throughout this part of the country for a convenient and proper place to establish my camp of supplies, should his Excellency continue of the opinion that a point at this side would be preferable to Fort Cox—that is, with reference to any contemplated ulterior movements ; but as regards position fur having completely command of the valley of the A matola, and affording more ready succour to the colony if threatened, Fort Cox, in my opinion, has greatly the advantage. I have no doubt, in my own mind, that the Kafirs have formed the resolution of not meeting the troops, and that their plan is to harass us by their movements forward and retrograde, this appearing more evident 133 T the nu merous spoors seen returning between my division and that of Sir Andreas, and the camp of his Excellency. 1 shall await his Excellency's further instructions, and after the horses are refreshed, and some necessary ar rangements made with respect to my waggons and sup plies, I shall be ready to move in whatever direction the Commander-in-Chief may decide.—l have, &c., J. HARE, Colonel. P.S.—Captain Ryneveld not having joined me last night, I presume he has remained at his Excellency's camp. Fort Beresford, Aug. 10. Sir,—Agreeably to his Excellency's orders I ascended the Buffalo Mountain, opposite Pierie station, in three columns, at an early hour on the sth inst. One of the columns, under Field-Captain Melville, having fallen in with a few Kafirs, immediately attacked and dispersed them, killing three of them—a fourth, about to be made prisoner, sprang over a precipice rather than submit to mercy. The other two columns met with no opposition, though some few Kafirs showed themselves as the leading column was emerging from the woods at the summit of the mountain. The cattle and goats belonging to these having been captured, and the columns united, the whole division proceeded to a height to the north-west of the Buffalo Poort, where Captain Melville, having taken a strong patrol in the steep kloofs below, succeeded in securing some horses, cattle, and goats, all of which fell into his own hands or those of the main body, without opposition. The following morning, having observed Colonel Hare's division, on the low grounds to our left, patrolling towards my division, and burning the kraals of the Kafirs in its progress, I considered detachments in that direction unnecessary, and consequently threw the whole I of my native troops into the kloofs and dense woods to my right and front. One of the parties, under Field- Captain Lange, proceeded as far as Murray's krantz,* which I subsequently understood had been carried that morning by the troops belonging to the ether part of the 2d division. By the whole operation, a very wide extent of the country was traversed; few Kafirs, however, were seen, though in many places their fires were yet burning, and the flesh of animals recently killed before them. Not a shot was fired upon us, though two lots of cattle were driven out of the bush, and one Kafir made prisoner. On Friday, the 7th, presuming the kloofs to be clear of Kafirs, and observing a heavy spoor of men and cattle towards the Caboosia, I followed it up, examining the kloof to my right, those on my left being under the observation of Sir Andreas Stockenstrom's division, with which I communicated in the course of the day. Two of my patrols were successful, one being instru mental in the capture of eight horses and 120 head of cattle, the other coming upon an encampment which seemed to have been abandoned to the men and left to the women, from whom some powder and IA) were taken. My march this day terminated at nine o'clock at night. During the whole of it no opposition was shown us. The behaviour of the men was in every respect satis factory. The assistance I received from Field -Captain Melville, whose qualities as lin active and intrepi. officer aro too well establisher:a 'to require comment, merit my . best acknowledgmen , ,s; and 1 would beg also to n otice favourably to his.

These being the only infantry at the time with Colonel Somerset's detachment of cavalry, which was moving along the foot of the mountains, were ordered by his Excellency to advance to the attack. As they proceeded to scale the mountain, a few Kafirs only were seen on the scarped ridge of the summit ; these retired as the assailants ap proached the foot of the scarp, without offering any opposition. On the preceding evening this position, in
