Sea,—ln this terrible case, suppose that Palmer had relied upon his professional character and pleaded that the poisons bad been given medicinally, we have yet to learn how such a criminal could have been brought to the bar of justice. Would not the court and judges have been helpless in such a case? James Morison, the Ilygelst, warned the country of this years ago, and now the dreadful cf nsequence has come to pass. Well may Mr. Hibbert, of Manches ter, in his public letter say, " that Hygeists, by reason of their pro test against all these vile poisons, hold at this moment one of the proudest situations in her Majesty's dominions." Dr. Prater, of London, 'n his work, is the only medical man who has had the honesty to do Mr. Morison justice on this question, by statirg " that to Morison the country was indebted for lifting his voles against these poisons." Queen Elizabeth used to say,. Prero gativain nostram, nemo audeat disputare ;" and Palmer, in reference to these vile poisons administered medicinally, rif ght have said the same thing. We are, sir, your obedient servants, THE MENtIIEIt4 OF THE BRITISH COLLEGE OF HEALTH, Now-road, London, for the Society of Ilygeists. Jan. 18, 1456. Bygeists do not war with doctors as men, well knowing that there are many most learned and good men in the medical profession, but against their system, which sanctions the use of these infernal poisons as medicines.

On Thursday morning a most daring robbery was committed on the premises of Mr. 11. Burbidge, corn factor, Bradford•street, Birmingham. Upon the shop being opened, it wasldiscovered that the iron safe in which Mr. Burbidge kept his books, title deeds, and cash, had been carried off. The safe weighed nearly 4001 b., and was fastened to the walllayttfrirtfb - firbfackets on which it rested. Thengh nothing else had been disturbed, the booty thus obtained was considerable, there being in the drawers of the safe no less than 1401., of which about 551. was in gold, 351. in silver, and the remainder in notes. To Mr. Burbidge, however, the cash was the least valuable portion of its contents. An entrance bad been effected by a window immediately over the shop door. Thence access to the shop was Easy, and possibly confederates were admitted by the front door, in order that operations requiring at once strength and dexterity might the more easily be conducted. The inquiries made, with a view of ascertaining how the safe was carried off led Mr. Burbidge and the police to conclude that it bad been taken off the premises shortly after six o'clock, at which hour the constables on night duty are relieved. It so happened that the officer on the beat had that night received special instructions from Mr. Burbidge to keep a sharp look out upon the premises, as the carcases of a couple of pigs had been temporarily left in the coach-house. The thieves or their confede rates had perhaps noticed that this was being done, and were consequently prevented leaving the shop during the night ; but it seems more likely that they had fixed on this period of the morning as the most suitable for their purpose. Detective-sergeant Manton, who was employed in the case, ascertained at the outset of his inquiries that a hand cart had been seen near the shop about half-past 0, and that this had been taken in the direction of Trinity church. Betwixt 9 and 10 o'clock a boat passing through a lock of the canal situated at the back of this church, experienced some obstruction in its progress, not being able, we presume, to sink low enough. An examination lecl to the discovery that an iron chest was lying in the lock. Mr. Burbidge having heard of this at once went to the spot, and, with the as sistance of Manton, endeavoured to recover it. Finding, however, that on raising the safe the books were drop ping out, he went to the canal office for the aid of the officials. Mr. Lloyd. one of the managers, kindly re turned with them. The lock was completely emptied of water. ,The safe was recovered, and with it all the books and important documents, though of course the cash had disappeared. Sledge hammers must have been used to force the chest open. It was so bent and torn that its maker would have been unable to identify it. There is no doubt that the operation of forcing it open was performed on a piece of waste ground near Trinity church, and as the noise of doing so must have been considerable, it may seem surprising that detection did net follow. This, however, shows that the boldness and daring of the thieves was of a ca'culating character: They thought that at such an hour no one would be likely to suspect the nature of their occupation, espe cially as one of the stone-breaking yards belonging to the corporation► 'immediately adjoins the spot. We be lieve that the . police have obtained some clue to the thieves.—ffirmingham. TILE MONSP RON GUN AT THE MERSEY I WORKS. This immense gun, the largest that bas ever been at tempted is concerned, the finishing or inacie,isnsiissng strokeeoniple ted, so far as the f o rgi n g 'having been given to it on Saturday, when it had its last heat. It has afforded the esteemed proprietors; the Messrs. Horsfall, and Mr. Clay, the manage r, the most live l y satisfaction to know that, not only has the gun turned out to be a most beau tiful piece of workmanship, but that this result has been acquired without a single accident. The time occupied in its manufacture has been about seven weeks, during which time it has not been out of hands night or day. The scene of the manufacture, on Saturday, presented a most stirring appearance. The fiery-red furnace shed a peculiar light on the working parties engaged ; and when the monster mass was brought out, glowing g with heat, added to the sound of orders from the head artisans and coupled with the aspect of the 40 or 50 men em ployed on the staff, all anxious to attend to every in struction with the most prompt obedience, the scene was one of the most exciting kind. When the huge hammer had done its work, the whole establishment was imme diately apprized of it, and the loud huzzas of those sons of Vulcan testified their satisfaction with the successful undertaking. On Monday this gun was weighed, and, after deducting the chain and tackle from it, its weight was 24 tons 7 cwt., the largest piece of wrought-iron over manufactured. It is now pretty generally known that the Messrs. Horsfall purpose to present the country with this gun—an honourable and convincing proof of our enterprising townsmen's superior skill and patriotic spirit. The measurement of the gun is some 15 feet ;it is to be of 13-inch bore, and its power of propulsion to be of power to urge a spherical shot of 302 lbs. five miles. It will be a swivel gun, placed in the bow or stern of the vessel. Several naval and military men have taken great interest in it. We are given to understand that it is proposed to have this gun taken to the lathe to-day (Tuesday), and in the course of about a month hence it ' will be ready fur service.—Liverpool Standard. But in the present instance the honour and inte rests of the country are involved in the fate of Lord Palmerston. No journal has more freely or more frequently arraigned the policy of the Noble Lord than the Morning Advertiser ; but that was avowedly with the view of urging him on to greater vigour in the conduct of the war—never with the view of ejecting him from the Premiership. With the facts which have been brought to our know ledge within the last few days, we oease, at least for the moment, all opposition to Lord Palmer ston,, and call on the nation at large, as it values the dignity, the honour, and the interests of Eng land, to rally round him as one man. There is a deep-laid conspiracy to eject him from office, similar to that to which he fella victim in 1851. It is not only a hostile Court, and traitors in his Cabinet, that he has to contend against, but Conti nental Powers, aye, and par Les, too, high in p0h . .. 7 tied, position, who are . presureed to be in alliance wit's us against Russia, are at this very hour in triguing against, and labouring to accomplish the downfall of the Noble Lord. What we have often prepared our readers to expect, has at last occurred. Those on whom we relied in the war against Rus sia have failed us, and unlesS the people of England avow, without delay, their readiness to stand or fall by Lord Palmerston, not only will the Noble Lord be sacrificed, but England and Europe will, ere long, have to ho prostrate at the feet of the Czar. Lord Palmerston, supported by Lord Clarendon, is—we say it advisedly—the only man in the coun try to whom the people can look with any confi dence in this crisis. If an insecure and ignomini ous peace be not concluded, England and Europe will owe their escape to the patriotism, the energy, the intelligence, and consumaiate diplomatic skill of the Noble Lnrd at the head of the Government. Let his Lordship—for his encouragement to per severe in the course he has chalked out for himself, of determined resistance to the designs of Russia— be assured of this, that he has the people, to a man, with him, and that, whenever he feels that the proper moment for a dissolution of Parliament has arrived, the country will attest its confidence in him, by returning, amidst the loud plaudits both of the electoral and non-electoral bodies, such a majority of Members in his favour as will put an extinguisher on all those who are at this moment leagued together for his overthrow, as the only sure way of promoting the . purpose& and plans of the Czar. • • ( From the Times of this day.) The period at which our negotiations for peace are just arriving is probably the most critical that they will have to go through. Nothing has as yet been received from St. Petersburg, except by tele graph, but to-morrow written communications are expected, and then will immediately arise the ques tion of signing a preliminary treaty of peace, arid with it the demand, which will doubtless be most earnestly pressed on the 'Western Powers, that they should enter into an armistice for the period during which that treaty of peace is to be discussed. Hitherto the game has been all.on our side. Whe ther it be, as the Nord surmises, that Russia has been actuated by the magnanimous desire of sacri ficing purely Russian to European interests, and also has at length awoke to the tardy conviction that not only the 'Western btrbarians, but people who ought to know better, believe that the Czar has designs upon Turkey and aspirations after the banks of the Bosphorus, certain it is that Russia has abated her pretensions with a rapidity after which her breathless admirers struggle in vain, and has sud denly transferred the contest from the field to the cabinet. Hero, however, she will encounter us on terms far more advantageous than she could pos-. sibly hirpe for hi any Other sphere of action. The goodwill of the Princes of Germany was not very likely to carry them into the excess of taking the field for the sake of either party. They know the blessings of ease, and are resolved to enjoy them to the utmost. While, therefore, the war con tinued, Russia, with numerous well-wishers, was pretty sure to be left alone in the field, to fend herself as best she might against Powers by whom she was already overmatched. But, though her friends dare not or cannot fight for her, they have no objection to do for her any other service she may exact from them. So long 'as there is no danger, no broken head to apprehend, no Power is richer in friends or more earnestly supported than Russia. She bears, indeed, a charmed life, and every petty Prince of Europe regards her with the same conviction with which Louis XI., in Scott's admirable novel, looked upon the astrologer Marcio Galeoti—tho conviction that he cannot hope to sur vive her decease for a single day. Now, therefore, that the time of negotiation has arrived, we do not doubt but that the Allies will be overwhelmed with professions of perfidious sympathy and affected approbation, and will discover that innumerable potentates, whom but a few months ago they re garded, and with justice, as among the most luke warm of their friends, or perhaps not the least bitter of their enemies, were always their well-wishers, always maintained the justice of their cause, always believed in the certainty of its success, and only hope that they will now exercise as much prudence and moderation in the ( conference as they have shown fortitude and gallantry in the day of battle. Russia, we shall be reminded by a hundred titled sycophants, is still a great .and formidable power, tenderly susceptible of her honour, morbidly sen sitive of the opinion even of her enemies, and sa crificing herself, as that veracious and patriotic journal, the Nord, of Brussels, assures us, rather to European interests and to European opinions, than to any inability to carry out the struggle in which she finds herself engaged. Then it will be hinted that the feelings of the Emperor would be grievously hurt by our insisting on one condition, and the spirit of the Archduke Constantine by our pressing indiscreetly for another, and we shall be told, as Mr. Gladstone and his friends have over and over again told us, that the best guarantee for peace is not in extorting harsh and grinding conditions, but in conciliating those by our generosity whom we have previously taught to respect us by' our valour. Joined to this class of mediators we must expect to have to encounter others of a different stamp— men who view peace and war as stookjobbiug spe culations, who would open the temple of Janus that they might buy into the funds low, and close it again that they might sell out higher. To such men human life is so much air, honour is so much dross, wide and prospective plans of policy the visions of dreamers or of maniacs, who sacrifice the present to the future, and expect like Rasselas, Prince of Abyssinia, to-morrow to redeem the pro mises of to-day. Patriotism is to them a word to conjure with, not to express any real or genuine feeling, and they would welcome for their country another Waterloo, if such a disaster would have, like its predecessor, the effect of raising the price of Government securities.. Surely Russia, with such auxiliaries, does not descend into the diplomatic arena without some hope of reconquering with her arts those advan tages which she has lost by her arms. On the steadfastness of purpose, the manly i,elf-confidence, and the unwavering resolution of the allies it must depend to thwart all these manoeuvres and to hold fast their dearly bought and highly prized supe riority. It must be clearly understood that these negotiations are not to be like ordinary Conferences where each party is straining his ingenuity to see which can most completely deceive the other— which can hide his internal misgivings under the bolder front—which can conceal his real inability to continue the contest under the loudest declara ' tions and the most dauntless bearing. Tho allies have no occasion to have recourse to such paltry and miserable arts ; they have won their position for themselves, and they know its value, for they have dearly paid for it. They cannot certainly tell what is the true condition of Russia, what money still remains in her treasuries, what troops in her fortresses, what spirit inherpeople, what enthusiasm in her Church—bow many of these paper armies, which are ready at every point to confront an imaginary invader in all the might awl majesty o f the very boldest type, would be found present i n the body when the day of action arrives. These things they cannot know, though they may partly guess ; but, for themselves, they are sure that they possess fleets and armies adequate to any enterprise they may devise, and resources that can support them in full efficiency so long as anything remains to he done. Power has not, as Mm. Cobden would have us believe, so wholly deserted wealth, victory has not made so fast a league with poverty, bar barism has not asserted so decided a triumph over civilisation, nor ignorance over enlightenment, that we, with our world-wide commerce and our boundless resources, should doubt of the result of the contest, if the contest be again renewed. We have nothing to fear from open force ; all our ap prehensions are from de]ay and trickery. It should be our business, now that the basis of negotiation is agreed upon, to formulate the terms of the treaty we are prepared - to sign in language the most pre cise, brief, and unambiguous possible. Let Russia accept such a treaty at once,, if she, be so minded, and we shall be content ; if not, let her reject it, and we shall also be content, fur we have every reason to believe we can conquer a better. Above all let no entreaties or cajoleries induce us to give up for a single instant the blockade of her coasts, so far as-it is not superseded by the ice, by which we isolate one part of the empire from the other, and the whole empire from intercourse with neigh bouring countries. If there must be an armistice, though we see no necessity for any respite, let at least our blockade be excepted from its operation, and let an early day be peremptorily fixed on which warlike operations shall again begin unless a definitive treaty of peace shall before that time have been signed and ratified. If it be understood that we enter on the conference fn this spirit, with a thorough resolution either to bring it to a pacific termination or to break it off, we shall have no reason to fear that Europe will be lie, long in suspense as tri the destinies of the cc. -Jag, yoai.. • (Front the Morning Herald.) • A morning contemporary, who- was the- first to - ,congratulate this country on the Russian accept ance of the Austrian propositions, now discovers that, " However ungracious it may be to cavil at so gratifying an announcement," it would have been much more satisfactory had those terms been -more precise and comprehensive, or, in other words, instead of forming the basis of a treaty, if they had constituted the " substantive treaty itself." We perfectly agree with our contemporary in this re spect—the rather ahat from the first we have taken this view of the proposals, and from the first have denounced them as incomplete, unsatisfactory, and treacherous. In certain respects they involve unex pected. concessions on the part.of Russia; in others, the interests of Europe in general, and of this country in particular, are left completely out of consideration. We cannot help thinking, as we before observed, that in the prompt—we might almost say the eager- 7 acceptance by Russia of these proposals, pur et simple, there is something at least suspicious ; for translated severely, and with out' he reservation which the fifth article admits of, they provide, if not for the surrender of the Russian supremacy in the Black Sea, at all events for such a modification of it as will effectually damage her prestige. There is something more here than meets the eye. Let it not be forgotten that these proposals, accepted as they are, constitute, as it has been happily phrased, "a Russian declaration from an Austrian lip." Our mediator has secured, or hopes to secure, a position on the Danube, which has long been the dream of Austrian statesmen, and which will enable her to control the commerce east ward of all Germany. Let it not be forgotten also that the campaign would shortly have opened, that this country was about to put forth her strength, and that a pause now in our operations—the breath ing time of an armistice—would be of incalculable value to our enemy. Let it not escape the public mind of England, that, for all that may be said to the contrary, we aro about to be dragged into ne gotiations at the instance of a power whose course hitherto has been marked by her insidious and too successful efforts to aid our enemy, and who sees her own interests very clearly in terminating hos tilities now, whatever may be the general result of such a step, and who is equally clear as to the ad vantage of their suspension at the present moment to Russia. We ask, what is the necessity for negotiations to be carried on till April next, we care not whether in Brussels, Frankfort, or Aix-la-Chapelle ? If the question of peace or war is really to be decided, why could not one week suffice fur the arrangement of the terms on which to withdraw our forces ? A categorical demand can be readily put, and Russia's sincerity will be tested by her readiness to meet it. Where is the necessity for ambiguity and diploma tic humbug, of which. the •tyorld"has ha 1 enough during the past year to disgust it for ever with the very name of "negotiation ?" We know what we want, and what we are determined to have, if there is virtue in ships and soldiers. France has made up her mind upon the same category. As we have fought together, we are united iu opinion upon the only terms on which a solution of the Eastern question depends. This we venture to assert, not withstanding the very strange language of certain members of the French press. We say, if Russia is sincere, and Austria is loyal, there is no cause for delay. The mind of this country is prepared for either alternative, and its resources are equal to the worst. It will endure anything but fruit less, protracted, fraudulent negotiations. CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. We have received files of papers from the Cape of Good Hope to the Ist of Nov. inclusive. The Friend of the Free State publishes the fol lowing report of a conference between the Presi dent, J. N. Boshoff, Esq., and the Basuta Chief, Moshesh, his Excellency Sir George Grey being present. It took place ou the sth of Oct. last : " The President.—l am very glad to see Moshesh here in the presence of his Excellency Sir G. Grey, on the first official opportunity we have had of meeting in the Free State. I think it well that we should often meet, as personal visits are always much more satisfactory than correspondence by letter. As we meet now per sonally we had better speak of business. I have often heard that Moshesh is a man of peace and is desirous of holding peace with the whites. lam also a man of peace, and now in the preience of his chief men I wish to show him on what terms we may make peace and friendship continue. As the beet mode to do so my view, is that, as I am chosen on one side and Moshesh on the other, to see that peace is not interrupted, we should, in case any disturbances occur, let each other know our minds freely. I shall therefore tell him at once that I have, on my arrival, been very sorry to hear of many thefts having been committed within our boun dary by wicked people from the other side. I would be glad to convince him that such things must be put a stop to, or the consequences will be that they will put the country in a blaze, and do great harm to all. These are all the complaints I know of as yet. Mr, Ford has already represented the case to him, and he has promised to punish the thieves, and put a stop to the stealing. I have no doubt that he will prove himself a man of his word, and make his chiefs help him to carry out his pro• miles. " Moshesh—Peace is the mother of all. I admire what your Honour has mentioned. I would be glad to hear any remarks of Mr. Ford's in confirmation. " President—We will await your answer. "Moshesh—lf no one else speaks it may appear as if these were the words of only two people. " President—l am the representative of all my people, and my word is theirs also. I wish to hear the mind of Moshesh's people through him as their chief. " Moshesh—May the things we speak of ascend to heaven ? My mind looks on the two personages present as the first fruits of a new year. I do not mind faults being mentioned, but I understood this to be a meeting of friendship. I met Mr. Ford about tho faults now brought forward. Ido not deny that some of the things have gone in our direction. I do not know the best means of stopping these things. What has the Gove rnor th come for ? Bas lie been sent by his master?

Th ere I end. o f f President —I will take him up at the last word. The cause lie must know, but the way is this—his people come in and steal. The missionaries have been long enough in the country for them to know that stealing is wrong. I believ e th a t Moshesh has enough good men among his people to help him to put down the wicked men who steal. I ant glad to hear that he wishes to get ad v,ce. 1 want it aiso. If we can both get advice, I for my part am ready to take it, and be guided by it. If he is willing to take advice from his Excellency, I am also. I will state the cause of complaint, asd if he has any I hope that he will state any ho may have, and then, if I can, I will remove it. I will tell him clearly, in a s few words as possible, what it is we complain of. The thefts committed in Mr. Ford's district within two years, as carefully collected by him from the field-cor nets, amount to 297 head of breeding cattle. " Moshesh—l have already agreed with Mr. Ford that I was convinced that some cattle had been stolen, and I have made him promises. Can you not give rue some advice ? "President—lf Moshesh will listen I will just tell him the numbers. _ _ " Moshesh—lt is just what I wanted. "President—Oxen and breeding cattle together , 363 ; horses, 294; sheep, 112. I was not sativtied with the sim ple returns of the field-cornets, and have instructed Mr. Ford to get statements on oath from the owners of tolen cattle. This is not yet completed, but is considerable. Sinco the numbers in the statement of the field cornets hove_ ieen , ascertained many moreolkitief t st - olen. When the full amceint is ascertained Aleslieshlnpw.

'We had better not speak so, but separate in peaca, as we have met in peac-. " President—l think the best way to secure peace is that friends meet and speak their minds. - I have stated all I have to say, and I want Moshesh to state any grievances he has to speak about. " Mosbesh—Not to-day. " President—Very good ; I shall always be happy to hear from him about anything that is done wrong by my people, as war would only break 'us all down'; but if thereis any other thing, as his Excellency is present, of which he feels aggrieved, I should be glad, to, beer it. " Moshesh—Not to-day. Let U 3 go home. We can correspond by letter. " President—Would he like his Excellency to give us some advice. Moshesh —lt is not theproper day. His Excellency is not hPre to hear difficulties. We can correspond by letter. " President—l thought Mosbesh would wish it. " Alostiesh—Ad vice to a chief might be given in pri vate, and not in public. " President—When occasion is urgent we seize the first opportunity of meeting, and; if M )shesh plstpones the conference on these urgent matters, some accident may occur, for which we may be sorry before we meet again. It may be long before we ca❑ meet again ; it may not be easy for us to do so. We can write, but we may not understand each other so well bY conversing. I have therefore spoken to him in his Excellency's pre sence, in order that he might give us some advice, and that we might profit by it ; and-it would be a satisfac tion to go home with the mutual conviction of having coins to an understanding to correct what has been wroncr. " Moshesh—l did not exTect that the maters already settled wi'.h Mr. Ford, and to whom I Lave already given an awwer, would be touched upon ; and I have also given a paper to Mr. Venter, that people suffering from thefts should be sent to me. lam ready to hear advice. " President—l know nothing of Mr. Venter's arrange ment. Re had no right to make one. I was then in the country. Such a proposal as yours, that we should go into your country and search for our property, could never be entertains]. Mr. Venter was appointed with three others. The directions given by all to Mr. Ford were good, and ought not to have been broken by one. If I was to send my people in that way into your country, it would only make disputes, and break our friendships. " Moshesh—l did not come to speak of business. "There seemed to be some misinterpretation of the Chief's meaning. in this last sentence, which had been interpreted in English by Nehemiah, Moshesh's son. " His Excellency Sir Geo. Grey then asked the Rev. Mr. Arbousset, who was acting as interpreter, whether he thought Moshesh would like to hear what be thought he ought to do. " Mr. Arbousset replying in the affirmative, his Ex cellency addressed Moshesh as follows :—You say that we are wise people in being able to build beautiful houses of clay ; a man who does that is respected by others, but a man who raises barbarians in the scale of civilisa tion is admired by ages. You are now the builder. You have collected some barbarians and made a kind of na tion. The question now is whether you are to succeed or fail. Not only is South Africa looking on, but many other parts of the world too. Every good man is will ing to assist ;no more so than the President. I have had an opportunity of hearing his views, and I ant sure be is anxious to help Moshesh to succeed. It is impossible that a civilised nation can allow a nation of thieves to remain on their boundary. The President and I are ready to put them down. I would be glad to see you more cordial to accept the President's offers than you have seemed to be ; and, as lam now going away for a considerable time, I should be glad to be certain that you would devise some plan for the future. In such a plan I will assist as far as the Cape colonial boundary is concerned. It must be greatly owing to your energy that you have raised yourself to the posi tion you now hold, and I would advise you to trust to that energy in future, and not to bad advisers. I trust that before I leave you you will give some proofs th;:t you will put down stealing, and allow your tribe to prosper. I am sure the President's remarks will be appre ciated ; I have been particularly struck with their just nesP. I hope before I leave that you will promise to put an end to such practices a s those that hive been carried on. " Mosheih—We ought to praise his Excellency for his words, though we were not aware, when called to visit, that such things would have been brought forward. " President —lf he is not prepared to speak on bud; nese, will he appoint another meeting, or will he go hom e and consider, and acquaint me with the result, and in the meantime try with his chiefs to put a stop to steal ing? or otherwise consequences may ensue that we may deplore " Moshesh—When I met Mr. Ford at Sefali's I made an agreement with him that he should make a list of stolen cattle, with the particulars of theft, in order that 1 could call on the guilty chiefs, and show them the accusations against them. " Mr. Fora explained that the list was in the course of formation. " Moshesh expressed himself satisfied, and said that the measures adopted to settle the thefts on the list would go towards stopping any future thefts. " President—Will the chief give me some promise that he and hie chiefs will endeavour to put a stop to any future thieving, or else the lists will only continue to increase? they wsz ntellrkeeneirna remain report will be no more stealing ; thieves do not tell me when " Moehesh—l cannot bind myself to say that there they come in or ge out. Did I not at the meeting with Ford, at Sefali's, tell my people they must not even steal o th rt e o s n am th e e s m itu a a s t s i o on on s. as possible. a goat ? You must give me time. I have eaten the Governor's meat, and it will be easy for me to vomit it up, very glad, with him, to remove all di ffi culties, sb.--,I feel as you do.

We have ilia() received additional files of papers from the Cape of Good Hope to the 25th of November, Everything was going on prosperously at the colony. TESTIMONIAL TO A CLERGYMAN.—The Rev. W.
