Thus would ,Gained the identity of the person, his re eler; and the purpose for which it was Ile would now just mention two points, which might possibly occur to their Lordships. Tee first was that the provisions of the Bill were inaited to the sale of arsenic, whereas it was, of course, obeioue there ,were many other kinds of poisons which would taka.away life; but it happened that arsenic, on account _of its comparative absence both of taste. and colour, aftsrdeci greater facilities for the commission of crime;.ansi he was told by those who had attended to the history of the criminal judicetureon these matters,. Cyst a rsenic was. in fact, synoaimous with poison.— (Mer, hear.) Oi course he could not pretend to debar The use of poison by those' whose knowledge, opportuni ties, and i ns truction gave them greater facilities for ob taining it:—(Hear, hear.) And he apprehended it would also be extremely difficult to draw up a schedule of all the poisonous materials which might be used for the purpose of taking away life, and he .bellived,' even is that could b 3 possibly done, Would not be desirable.—(Hear, hear.) It would 45t be desirable to advertise. as it were the dif ferent poisons which might or might not be used, and to show persons what article they must have recourse to if they wishaa to perpetrate crimes. Therefore, it had not been thotight proper by those who had attended to the matter to extend the Bill to other poisons than arsenic. The other point had reference to the minimum acaouet of arsenic which parties should be allowed to sell. Arsenic was very cheap, and those who wished to have it for legitimate purposes would not be deterred from purchasing the quantities they required, but if they were to purchase more than they wanted, perhaps, they would leave the surplus carelessly about, and thus afford an opportunity for evil-disposed persons to get it into their hands. Therefore, he thought, it was advisable not to introduce any provision of that kind into the Bill. He was not ambitious enough to suppose the Bill could deal with all cases of poisoning. The Noble - Lord • concluded by observing that he hoped, this species of crime by poisoning was not familiar to any ago or country, but melancholy experience proved the contrary, and he Apprehended that however leghlatioa might attempt to deal with the evil, the crime could only be successfully gyapplecl with by extending religious education among the people.—(Hear, hear.) After, a few words from Lord MOUNTCASHELL the Bill was then read a second time. INCOME-T Lord BROUG - HAIA said he wished to call the atten tion ct their Lordships to the subject of the resolutions which he had laid on the table of the House relating to the income•tax. His principal objections to that tax 'e its inquisitorial nature and the disclosures which it .ade of a man's affairs and pesition to persons who had no claim to such knowledge. He had in his hand four returns which had been made by separate individuals to the Income-tax Commission, which had been found lying carelessly about, when they ought to have been keat with the greatest secresy by the person into whose hands they were sent. The individual who had sent then there had 16 others in his possession, all of which had been similarly found. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE greatly regretted that any comp%int could be made respecting the Go vernment officials who were engaged in the collection of this tax, and he was much obliged to his Noble and Learned Friend for the candour with which he had in formed the House and the country of his intentions. He perfectly , agreed with his Noble and Learned Friend in the opinion that the income-tax was a most grievous and oppressive imposition. It was perfectly true that its inquisitorial character rendered it peculiarly obnoxious to persons of all classes, and every care ought certainly to be taken by those occueied in its collection in refraining from any exposition of • the private affairs of individuals. 'Tile breach of that confidence which ought to be oh aerve-d might very easily be productive of serious injury in many cases, but he could assure his Noble and Learned Friend that every care should be taken to pre vaitany misoonahet on the part of those by whom the tax was collected. Lord BROUGHAM was glad to hear that the consi decation of the Government had been turned to this matter, and he hoped that not only the attention of the officials engaged in the collection of the •tax, but also that of the magistrates in the several counties, would be drawn to it, with a view to prevent that which, to say the leant of it, was a grievous aggravation of a most dis- ar of VI Es.ri, t 19 Bill, said 3 Eit; that 4,iffht not be to t.'“?. ezixte of knstte. 1 tha L?gi provt,no; e.

Lerd COLCHESTER said that he wished to ask the Noble Marquis whether there was any intention on the part of the Government to bring in a Bill for • ansendmr3nt of ,the Mercantile Marine Bill. 3.)aring.the last session the Vi(ni-President of the Board of Trade had brOuglit in three Bills with a view to im- Fova the, laws by which the' mercsntile, marine of this country., s regulated.

The rail of WICKLOW wished to direct the atten tion of the gohle Marquis the President of the Council to a stibjett of some - importance. Their Lord ships were aware that a treaty existed between this country and France, by • which the fishing boats of the two nations were restricted to speci frd • boundaries of the Channel. Since that was entered hate a valuable bed - of oysters had been dis covered betweeis Dieppe and Brighton, which was rather nearer to the French than the English coast, and during the last few years this 'b ed enabled the fishermen of nlt. , ,tanct to su pply our markets with an abundance of o , eters throughout the Year, including the months of :i'Aay,.June, July; and , Auguse, b at r ecently the French authorities had acted tne part of th e d og in the manger, and they would not fi.h the bed themselv es nor allow others to do it.

" Alice, 24th Jan. 1851. " The day after the fight.. here, a party went out to examine the ground upon which the fight took place. The result was that seventy-three bodies were to be seen.. Yesterday the vultures were about the neighbour hood in hundreds, and even while I am now writing, they are to be seen picking away at the bodies not de voured yesterday. There must have been a great num ber killed, because the birds seemed busy for miles away, and when the main body of Kafirs commenced retreating, vultures were seen to follow it, just as they do when you are engaged at spring buck shooting. " I hear that on the day of the fight one of the Kafir policemen who deserted us, rode up to one of the Cape Corps, off-. Ting his gins and wishing to give himself up,but.before he could look round a doaen of the Fingoes' assegais were whipped into him, and he was soon laid a lifeless corpse. • • • The two Kafir policemen who were sent with an express t). King William's Town about eight -days since have not yet returned. It is supposed that they have either been kil!ed or gone over to the enemy. We hear nothing from Fort Cox direct—all communica tion with that place is still cut off. . . The Fort Armstrong people are regularly besieged. Report says from thence that they are hemmed in, and have been obliged to fly to the tower for safety. The Hottentots in that neighbourhood won't fight. They seem to say that they will "sit still." . . I dare say in the course of a day or two we shall get further information from that quarter., Wienand wrote for assistance, but the General is unable to render any—we have had hard enough work to defend ourselves. If we had had a superior force the other day, a great many Kafirs, who had spread them selves about the outskirts of ,the town, endeavouring to get away the Fingoes' cattle, might hive been cut off ; but as it was, none could with safety be detached from the main body." Accounts from head-quarters are up to the 21st ins On the 20th, the Hermes and the Dee had arrived a' East London with 1,260 men, and the Phcenix was ex peeled to reach that port on the 21st. It was understood that his Excellency would move to relieve the beseiged forts as soon as Captain Davies' levy reached him. This officer had passed Fort Peddle without accident, and in tended proceeding by Wesleyville, and not Line Drift. An express, carrying dispatches from the Governor, that should have reached town on Tuesday last, has bean cut off, it is supposed by Seyolo's Kafirs. FORT PEDDIE. The following brings affairs at this place up to the 24th inst.:— Since my last communication to you of the 17th ult., the following events have taken place up here. Saturday, IStb, Half-past Ten P.X. at Night.—The Fingo Chief Kaulala's kraal was attacked by a strong party of mounted and foot Kafirs, and about 220 head of cattle take n. Sunday, 19114—A strong party of Kafirs seen (mounted) close to D'Urban Missionary Station, Ksven- ItSvezi's location, attempting to capture the Fingoes' cattle on their way to the kraals. _The Fingoes turned out and gave batty. Three Fingoes wounded; one died during the night. One Kafir wounded, 2 blankets, some pouches, and a few :rounds of ammunition captured. 21st—Captain Walsh arrived with 130 men, Hottentot levy, at half-past eleven o'clock P.M.. at night. Seven shots fired, , close by the post. A rocket was discharged in the dissection of the shots, which started eight Kafirs out. The , same morning heavy firing was heard in the direction ef Fort Hare. 23d—E:epress arrived from General Somerset with dispatchea for the Governor, stating that Fort. Hare had been attacked. Dispaches forwarded on by two Kafirs, late of tbs Kafir Police; both men intercepted by the Kafirs, and the dispatches and ono man taken; one made his escape back to Peddle slightly wounded. Also dur ing the ni iht two Fingoes got shot at their kraals being mistaken 1: y their comrades for I{.,firs. (From the Cape Frontier. Times of Jan. 21.) Since t. tae defeat and death of the traitor Hermanus, at Fort Beaufort, on the morning of the 7th instant, there has been no aggressive movement on the part of the enem p either in British Kafraria or within the limits oft le colony. His Excellency, it is well understood, is consent s.tting as large a force as he can muster at head quarters, to assail the enemy. In the mean time, the Kafirs, it is supposed, are closely watching his proceed ings, and es ill probably make a desperate effort to inter cept the sup plies which must in a short time be sent to the two posts, Fort. Cox and Fort White, with which all communication has been cut off for some weeks. If they should be unsuccessful in this attempt, and his Excellency shaould be sufficiently re-inforced to be able to follow up zany success by vigorous severity, they will in all probability overrun the colony. Their first rush will be tremendous, and will be withstood only by the most populous towns. and the largest fortified camps. Looking then to this o bvious probability, it is earnestly and . anxiously recommended that all the small lagers that may exist throughout the country should be at once abandoned, aad that all preparations be completed without delay in every town and village to repel the enemy, for in the present state of affairs no man resid ing in any of tine border districts can count upon his safety for a sir gle day. The presenn: war is not a cattle war. With the ex ception of the hostilities committed on the colony by the Blinkwater rebels, the war has been principally with the troops in Bt itish Kafraria. 'Dile war has evidently bet n the result c )f a. long considered and extensive conspi racy between tlee Kafirs in Kafraria, and their country - men, and variotro coloured classes iu the colony, and its object is to west reninate the white man. It is a war of race.. The struggle will be fearful, and blood will flow as water. , But the issue cannot be doubted; al though the horrors of the contest could be much mitigate I, its duration much shortened, and its devastating ruin and dreadful remits confined to. a comparatively narrow space, if the inhabitants of the colony who 'are at present remote from the seat of tianeer, ,promptly responded to the call of honour and of duty ; and, making common cause and sharing the common danger with their more exposed fellow-colonists, joined the front ranks of colo niel defenders, and thus became the instruments under a righteous cod, of inflicting a summary and signal retri bution oneeho barbarous and formidable savages who are now three ;ening to tear out the heart of the colony. PORT ELIZABETH. The M ercury states that when the Kafir convicts from the Zuely erg station arrived at the Zwaartkops River the heat was so extensive that two of them "died in exces sive eager mess to quench their thirst." They have been shipped tl Jr the Cape. The s reamer Phasaix has art ive3, bringing 50 mules, seine we e.goos,, ammunition, meal, and other stores, with a large i a nouns of specie fur the use of the forces. Five ii:fsfirs belonging to Sandilli, in the employment of Mi'. Isait iter, have been apprehended and sent to Purt Elizabeth , -they having been insolent to their master and iutec..dilig to eteal his cattle. (P. E. Mercury, Jan. 11.) A geneval muster of the Port Elizthetli Corps took place on NV;etluesclay afternoon. Upw cods of 800 men were preser t. The whole scene was of a very animated kind, and . tirhough unaccustomed' to military exercise, they p: esee red a formidable appearance.

These men do not come out t, n the terms of the Governor's proclama tion resps cling Hottentot Levies, and decline the bounty, but come out as in former. Kafir wars as commanded by the Civil Coramissioner, and the promise of receiving 6d. a day, and rations for themselves and families. The reason for declining the bounty is to .give them the choice of their own officers, aid to enable them to remain together as one company. Their separation from one another is one of the greatest grievances tlaey allege as to the former Kafir war. • A Fingo arrived in Port Elizabeth last night, who re ports that while proceeding thr.eugh the Addo Bush, ho was stopped by some Lafirs, who asked him what he was. He ina,nageid to pass himself off as an Amatembu Kafir. They told him that the Addo Bash was full of Kafirs, and on his expressing his doubts as to the truth of the state ment, they invited him to go in and see, telling him they would give him some hos (food). The Fingo fear ing a recognition of his race I,y some of the Kafirs in the Bush, refused, and continue a his route to the Bay. The Kafirs told him that those in the Ado are only waiting for the Englishmen to go into Kafirland and begin operations. Qt taggas Flat, Bth Jan. . " The Kafirs are all around \ us. They have taken five horses—two belonging to yomself and one to me; and yesterday ninety head of cattle were taken from the Field•cornet while going to the Bushman's River to drink ; the herd . eas murdered. A Kafir came to buy some brettd and meat—be seems to be ono of the party. for he could give no account of himself,—l now send him to the Bay by your two men. A fine rain is falling, and ss soon to it abates we shall endeavour to trace the spoor of eight mounted Kafirs we saw yesterday. Three hor: deg aro deficient." On Wednesday evening the news, reached Uttenhage that a patrol of 17 Briers and, 10 ilottentots had fallen in with a party of Kafirs, who had stolen some cattle at Kragakamma, in the Zuurberg. Jau Lange's horse was shot under him. The party r eturnod to camp, bringing with them the bucks and eg me horses, but were obliged to relinquish the cattle. They say that there were b 1033. spoors. A party of Bucrs from Garotoos about ,30 in xrainb.-1., were onicred to leave (lite:II - lap on Tnurid4y to join the camp at Sul:da.ys River.

Dr. Eveleigh, of Riveredale:gieee a gratifying account of the alacrity shown by thepeople of that piece to assist in the general defence. Writing to the Shipping Gazette, he, sayse'that the district will furnish 120 coloured volunteers, and he thinks that nearly 100 farmers are ready to go as soon as orders arrive. I have not. yet seen one who is unwilling to go, if needftil; 'but many whO are willing are quite incapable of service, from various causes. The ladies and children are hard at work, making such clothes as are required for the recruits, and which could not be pro cured in the shOps. Horses and waggons are ready to convey the recruits to Mossel Bay, whence the steamer will most likely convey them to Port Frances, or where they are most required. Captain Rainier has travelled no less than 450 miles in the six days, and will now drill the men every day till they leave. (From the Commercial Advertiser, Jan. 8.) Sir Andries Stockenstrom returned on Monday even ing to Wynberg, from his lengthened trip to the country. The lamentable outbreak of ,the Kafirs had been fully expected by the colonists on the border, but the reality of the misfortunes of the frontier did not make itself fully known until nearly the close of his journey. . . . Mach alacrity has been shown by. the Hottentots of the several mission stations to answer the appeal of the Govern ment. Nearly 300 altogether have already volunteered. These' men go on a bounty of 21., and 61. per diem, with rations for their families; no great inducement, if taken apart from the sense of duty which is believed to actuate them, and which will be found, it is fervently hoped, to influence every class and every individual in the colony. The enlistment at the castle proceeds but slowly. Perhaps the place of enlistment for town's people, or persons influenced by the town's people, has been un happily chosen. There is a prejudice against tho castle and all belongs to it, against military enlistment, in faCt, altogether. (From the Cape Town Mail, Jan. 18.)' The recent intelligence from the frontier is in a high degree re e assuring. On the 3d of this month a strong force of Kifirs, led by several chiefs,—among whom were two of Sandilli's brothers,—attacked Fort White. They were received by the garrison, under Captain Mansergh, with a steady and well-directed fire, which struck down a great number • of them. Twenty of the killed were left around the post. On the morning of the 7th, the rebel chief Hermanus, with his horde of Kafirs, and the Hottentots wham he had se duced or compelled to accompany him, assaulted Fort Beaufort. The attack was repulsed by the troops, burghers, and Fingces, who constituted the garrison of the town; the chief himself was shot, his son and num bers of people were killed, and his band completely routed and scattered. It is said—and the information appears to have come through channels which have heretofore proved trust worthy—that the hostile Kafira are greatly discouraged by these defeats, that they accuse their prophet of hav ing deceived and misled them, and that the fidelity of the T'Slambies, who were wavering, had been completely assured. Other circumstances combine to lead to the belief that the war is likely to be as promptly and successfully concluded as it was suddenly and disastrously begun. The Governor will shortly be in a position to resume offensive operations. Ho has now with him at King Willam's Town a regular force of about 800 men. The three steamers will, in a few days, add to this number about sixteen hundred volunteers; and in three or four weeks hence Sir Harry will pro bably find himself at the head of a well-appointed and most efficient force of more than three thousand men. These will constitute only one division of the army. General Somerset will, 'in all probability, have by that time another division, of about the same strength, com posed also of regular troops, burghers, and Hottentot levies. With these, and with such of the gar risons in the various forts as will then be dispo sable, Sir Harry will have an army of not less than 7,000 men, ready for field operations, and in a state of thorough efficiency. If with 'such a force, and the ad vantage of his own local experience. he is not able to sweep the Amatolas, to annihilate all opposition, and to dictate his own terms to the whole population of British Kafraria, and the surrounding territory, then the' sooner he evacuates that province, and resigns the baton of command to an abler hand, the better for him self and the colony. But we have no doubt of his speedy and triumphant success. HERNIANUS AND THE HOTTENTOTS. (Extracts from a Letter in the Graham's Town Journal.) Hermsnus. and his followers attacked Fort Beaufort yesterday mornieg, but were repulsed with great slaughter, with a loss of about two hundred killed and several wounded. Several llottentots, who bad been induced to join Herinanus, have been shot and taken prisoners. Hermanus was amongst the first who Tell in the action, and the Fingoes dragged him up to the market-place. This will be a check upon the disaffected, and will induce the wavering to join the British. Several Hottentots were compelled to join in the war, and may be partially excused on the plea of intimidation ; but others refused to fight against the colony, by Hernsanue' order and kept as prison ers, to be dealt with on his return home." and were seized The following names have bean furnished to us amongst those who brayed the, vengeance of the rebel chief; rather than join him in his career of murder and ra pine:—Sergt. Bell, Sergt. Cesar, Sergt. Zealand, Sergt. John Brander, Sergt. Erasmus, Sergt. Jepps. All these men had served in the Cape Corps, and had retired from the service with honour—and with an annual pension from the Government. Sergeant Jepps was distinguished for his bravery, and was a great favourite, as every brave man is, with Sir Harry Smith. Lie, unfortunately, fell into the hands of the Kafirs on the Konap Hill, and was put to death by them. CONFLICT AT S eiLE i. (From the Graham's Town Journal.) SATURDAY.—Litelli&nce has come in this morning brought by a Fit:gee. who travelled on foot during the night, of a sharp conflict between a patrol of the Salem inhabitants, and a strong body of Kafirs in the vicinity of that village, in which, we deeply regret to say, an intrepid young man, named Frederick Short, arid a Fingo were killed, and another young Albany settler, eamsd George Dennison, severely wounded. It appears that the Salem patrol, consisting of only nine mounted men, while out yesterday after noon, observed the trail of Kafirs, which they tollowed until it led them into a dense bush, in which the enemy computed at fifty in number, had sought cene cealment, end most probably were witing to re ceive them. From the santiness of d the ' s , sa info ve rmatiothat n, we are, unable to furnish any etail Short • • W a s shot through the back, and that Dennison was severely wounded in the superior part of the arm. The Fingo was shot through the bead. We infer that the Kafirs must have been beaten, and driven off, as the messenger states that the wounded man was brought in, together with the arms and ammunition of those who fell. A party of voluoteers have gone out to esc ort the wounded man to Graheru'e To:wn. GENERAL ORDERS. Heed quarters, King William'a Tow u, Jan. 9,1851. . 1. Captain Fitzbourne, R.N., having beets good enough to lend au officer and 30 men, ste"mer Heenewe with two guns, to aid in working the surf boats and in defending the depot, Captain Stanton, conetnanding Fort Glamorgan, will authorize the usual issue of rations to this party, and will in every respect provide, for them. 2. The Commander in-Chief has this day received a report that upo n the morn ing of the 3rd instant Fort White was attacked in force by the Kafirs, in four bodies. They approached stea dil y , the garrison re serving its fire, when the Kafirs were driven back with great loss, leaving twenty killd around the poet, and carrying .off a considerable number of wounded. Hi s Excellency con gratulates Captain Mansergh and his intrepid garrison upon the glorious result which attended the improved defences he had con structed, and which were so gloriously and gallantly defended by his officers and soldiers, who had only one man slightly wounded. By Command, 11. L. 'AIAYDWELL. Mil. Secretary. (From the Cape Colonist.) Extract of 'a letter dated Alice, sth January, 1851: " A report has just come from Fort White, stating that the Kafirs made a deepera,te atteek on that place, rush ing with karosses over their heads right up to the very walls of the fort—their dead bodi e s are now lying in heaps all around." PROCLAMATION By his Excellency Lieutenant-General Sir Henry George Wakelyn Smith, Bart., &c., &c. Whereas the Kafir Chief Hermanus did receive a large grant of territory upon the Blinkwater from the then Governor Major-General Sir Benjamin D'Ur ban, and which he occupied for many years upon the condition of the good faith and amity ; and whereas this location has ever been a nest of thieves and vagabonds; and whereas the Kafir chief Hermanus did revolt, and by every unlaw war ful means colrlec Mtajes cons - siderable force to make upo hety' peaceable subjects, and did upon the morning of the 7th of January attack the town of Fort Beaufort, on which occasion he was most fortunately slain in the square of that to en, and his people beaten back and pursued with great slaughter; I do hereby pro claim, declare, and make known, that this grout of land does by these acts revert to the Crown, and that the successors of Hermanus, and all their rebellious people, are for ever expelled the limits of the colony, an d (01 men of this wicked location, if seen within the colony, are to be regarded as enemies and dealt with accordingly . TROOPS. ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS. (From the Zuid Afrihaan, of Jan. 30.) The frontier-pest, which arrived this morning, has brought the good news of a signal defeat sustained by the enemy on the 21st instant at Fort Hare, which was boldly attacked by a very large force. It is said that the Kafirs were on - this occasion led on by their Prophet and Sendilli in person,—the first dressed in a red cloak, formerly in poe.ession of. the 7th Dragoons, and the latter in the uniformof An officer: The less of the ene my is veriously stated from 100 to 150; that of the British ;hie!, a h ire , comparatively small. - Sixty horses. the riders of which had fallen iu the fight, aoo fell into our hands. Some weggons under escort from Graham's Town (50 C. M. Rifles under Captain Carey having been dettaeh,l for that purpose) reeehed For; Hare in safety about two hours after the Kati:s had retired. The communicethm with Fort Cox was still com pletely cut eft and that with the Governor at King William's Town exceedingly difficult and dangerous. The Friend of the Sovereignty says, that if reliance can be plate d on authentic and private information, Moshesh is very anxious to avoid a - quarrel with the - British Government. The ficrozes has again . left for East London with a reinforceTneiit of about 400 volunteers. It appears from the Journal that a party of 27 of the coloured residents of Theopolis came to Graham's Town - with articles for the market. Twenty of them, bjeg 12 Hottentots, 2 Fingoes, and 6 Bechuanas, were are rested on suspicion of treasonable designs against the country, and brought before the Magistrate. The Fingoes gave evidence of a meeting having been held on the 15th (when the Rev. Mr. Smit, of Graham's Town, visited the institution at the instance of the Board of Defence), at which a letter was read - by the leader of the Hottentots, named Kieviet Piqueur, purporting to have been received from one Lynx, a Blinkwater Gonah, telling his brethren and allies at Theopolis, that the Kafir war was not on the part of the Government, but was an attempt by the boers to rob the Kafirs of their cattle and expel them from their country; intimat log also, that although they would be pressed like other Hottentots to join the colonists in this work, they bad better not go on such ae errand. It transpired in court that the Rev. Ur. Snit was aware of the receipt of this letter. Oa being asked why he had not brought such a treasonable document to the notice of the authorities, Mr. &nit replied that he had done so to the Clerk of the Peace, which statement, however, that officer imme diately denied. More, it is inferred, will cone of this matter anon. The Fingoes state, though at the peril of their lives, that they suspect the Theopolis Hottentots of being friendly to the Kafirs, and th fact of their cattle run ning at large, no preparations being made for defence against the dreaded enemy of former days, very strongly strengthens this assumption. The Bechuanas and Fin goes—S in number—have hal their guns returned to them, but the 12 Hottentots were disarmed, their powder taken away, and they were remanded for further exa mination. Some further investigation into the affairs of this place was made at the Court-house this morning (25th). The Rev. N. Smit explained the purport of the letter sent to the Hottentots, the substance of which was the same as that published under the head of Events of the Week (Thursday). Mr. Smith said that he endeavoured to remove the improper feeling that letter had caused, and to the best of his belief had succeeded in doing so. He expressed his belief that the Theopolis people are loyal towards the Government. The Blinkwater disaffection he considers to have arisen from the burning of the huts in July last. Of the 12 Hottentots lodged in gaol on the 23d instant, seven have been released upon their OlVil recognizances, and the other five detained until the result of - Mr. Cur tie's proceedings be known. CHEERING INTELLIGENCE. (From the Extra of the Frontier Times.) The following cheering intelligence was received this morning from Fort Hare, from which the public will be gratified to learn, that not only a fresh success has been gained over the enemy, but that all the waggons that were lately sent to Fort Hare with supplies, Sco., have reached their destination in safety. Fort Hare, Jan. 23,1851. Sir,—As I understand that the heavy firing that took place here on the 21st instant was heard in Albany, which may create alarm,—l have the honour to ac quaint you that the enemy attacked my position at about nine A.M. on the morning of the 21st in great force, having in advance a considerable body of mounted men, and forming their force into three large columns, and moving rapidly to their left, made a most determined attack on our guards in charge of the cattle. Tha attack was met by a spirited advance of the Fingoes, and supported by a detachment of the C. M. Rifles under Lieut. and Adjutant Bell. As the columns of the enemy advanced the guns in the bastions were worked with great effect by the de t ,chment of It)yal Artillery under Acting-Bombardier Merchant, the fire of which broke their columns awl did considerable execution, the enemy continuing working to. their left, evidently receiving considerable reinforce uipnts from parties concealed behind the hills around our position. A very sharp engagement was continued for two hours and a half without intermission. While this was going on a body of Kafirs from the Upper Chumie, and led on by Soga, the principal chief belonging to the Mission station in the Chumie, attacked the rear of the cattle in Alice, and succeeded in capturing about 200 head, The brother of this mtu. whose name was Manana (well known in Graham's Town) was shot in Alice. The Kafirs made a most determined attempt to cut off the right body of the cattle collected in Mice; but a well directed fire from soma of the inhabitants and a body of Fingoes (who were concealed among the cattle) drove the enemy off—who at length being completely routed at all points retired with severe loss. Upwards of one hundred bodies lay about, and numbers of wounded were carried away by the enemy during their operations. I had the anxiety of having to afford protection to a convoy of waggons expected from Leeuw Fontein, and being obliged to detach a strong party of the C. M. Rifles for this service rendered me unable to follow up the enemy in the way I could have wished. As it was he gut a severe handling. Several chiefs and head-men were slain—amongst others 10 deserters from the late police; several horses were also captured. The action was most severe, and the fire most spirited and determined. I have to regret the loss of 6 Fingoes killed and 10 wounded severely. I understand it had been planned to attack us for four days, but the severe loss sustained by the enemy has, I believe, damped their ardour and changed their deterrni nation.—l have the honour to be, Sir, Szo , H. SOMERSET, Major• General. C. 11. Bernaby, Major Royal Artillery, Commandant, Graham's Town. " Alice, Jan. 22. 1851,.. " The long looked-for engagement with the Kafirs took place yesterday (21st), and a warm affair it was. I penned a hurried letter directly after the affair, but could not succeed in sending it—nothing but official documents from the General could be allowed. I need not, I think, say any more relative to the action, than it was a sharp contested tight, from beginning to end, which lasted abopt four hours iti, all. Thera could not have been less than from five to seven thousand .of the enemy—it is impossible to state the real num bzrs—as far as the ere could reach, which would be about ten miles, the hills were entirely black with them, both horse and foot. Tiley seemed determined to take the fort, and town also, if it could have been done at the distance of gun shot—nearer than this they would not come, only in one or two instances, and then they were shot. The number of killed and wounded on their side must have been very considerable, although they could not b© found. The ordnance did very little good at the commencement, but it did execution at the close;—there was one shell in particular, that did good service—l am positive at least from ten to fifteen fell, I saw this with my eys-glass. They managed to put about four musket balls . into Dowell's premises. There were about twenty-five men in front of the house, under cover of the water run, which was the sole cause of preventing the loss of the whole of the Fingoe cattle. Here the action terminated, at about two o'clock. " Alice, 21st January, 1851. " To day has been with us a most important day. About half-past aloe o'clock this morning an e , tick upuu the t , wo and Fort Hare commenced, Oar attention was first drawn to the FAL,V9 csttle, which were seen being driven past Wyune's house at a most furious rate. •.I managed to get a spy glass, and with that could. see the Kafirs pursuing the Fingoes and cattle in a most determined manner ; the Fingoes under . arms at the fort and town then turned out to meet the Kafirs and a regular fight commenced. At this time thousands of Kafirs were seen in several bodies making their, way to where the fight was going on. There must have been several hundred of Kafirs on horseback. The cattle were at this time in and about the town. A party of the Cape M. Rifles then tamed out to assist the Fingoes—eand firing at a most furious rate both by Kafirs and ihOse on our side was kept up. The Kafirs continued to advance upon the town rapidly, and nothing that could be done seemed to check:them; shell tiring from the fore then commenced, and some of the shots were well thrown. I should say that about fifty shots with the cdnnon were fired. While engaged with the party of Kafirs I ita now writing about another large body, ' both mounted and on foot, Were seen rapidly advancing upon the town from another direction. At first sight it was thought these were Fin goes, but we soon discovered our mistake. Many of teem ran down a . small ravine called the Gaga, and got actually within three hundred yards of the town. Mr. R. Levy managed to knock one of these fellows over, who was afterwards identified as the brother of a chief called Sogo, living at the Gwala mission station. I bad one shot at a couple, but unfortunately the distance was too great, an d m y s h o t did not t e ll. I saw the Kafir that Levy s h ot , r e t was a most daring fellow, and seemed to lead on the rest. They . (the Kafirs) succeeded in getting away some goats and a few cattle but not many. I had no possession o f t h e idea the Rita"' were - ' i so d arung—immense bodies kept volleys into it vj la o loverlooking the town, and fired t effect. After the firing had ce ased (and which was a vigor uotin td,. n o t_ u h s_ .e l y ut 0 k w e r t p t t u oh p see f for r i f t h a r n e 3 e . hours), I took a stroll dead bodies wer e lying ar bo of the town I saw th e dead bodi n e c s t jofattharteet ieitlofiurtsskir and two Fi ngo es, which latt er were unfortunately killed w hil e fighting bravely.

GENERAL ORDERS. • Head-quarters, King William's Town, Jan. 24, 1851. The Cominander-in-Chief desires to express his admiration of the conduct of 120 soldiers of the gallant Cape Mounted Rifles, under' thAt distinguished officer, Major Armstrong, and of 150 of the intrepid Fingoes under Mr. Tainton, who were 'sent out this day from King William's Town to drive off a party of bullying Kafirs. Scarcely were they well away from the town whom they were surrounded by upwards of 600 of Seyolo's and Anta,'s Kaflrs. Major Armstrong was able to report his position, when 100 men of the Cape 'Mounted Rifles, one six-pounder gun of the Ro) al Artillery, the 73d Regiment, and two batta lions of the levy,' the one having marched iu yesterday, the other being in the' act of marching into town, were sent under Colonel Mackinnon to support Major Armstrong, as it was believed that a still larger number of rebels wore near. This support was unne cessary, however rapidly rendered, for the C.M.R. and the Fingoes had already given the enemy a glorious de feat, notwithstanding the disparity of numbers, many having been killed with a loss on our side of one trooper C.M.R. wounded and one Fingo killed in the act of assisting the wounded trooper. The two battalions of the new levy went into the' field with a zeal and energy clearly demonstrative of the good work they were able and willing to perform. (Signed) A. J. CLOETE, Lieut.-Colonel, D. Q. M. General. C. H. Burnaby, Major, R.A., Oommandant. ;From the Frontier Times (Graham's Town), Jan. 29. Somerset, Jan. 22, 1851. We are . in a state of much alarm, owing to so many ' Hottentots having turned against their masters, sad I fear that there is a deep-laid rebellious plot throughout the colony among the Hottentots. Messrs. T. Nourse, Ainslie, and Bennet have severally been ordered off by their own servants, in conjunction with other rebels, One of Mr. Nourso's English servants was shot dead. The rebels fired a volley at Mr. Nourse and his man; the man fell, but Mr. Nourse escaped unhurt and re turned to the house, and again went out unharmed; on seeing which, the rebels. did not again fire, but very coolly told Mr. Nourse to give up his arms and property and leave at once. One fellow; Adam Pardewagter, said he was sorry for Mrs. Nourse and the children, as they had behaved well to him. I far the rebellion among the Hottents is general. We expect about 100 Dutch farmers will come in from Zwagers•hoek, who have been persuaded so to do by the Rev. J. Pears of this place, as they were unwilling to do so before owing to some misunderstanding of the pro clamation, upon which point they were put right, and will immediately proceed to the rebels' camp, who we hear muster altogether about 1,000 strclng. FATAL COLLISION. We regret to have to record another of those casualties which will go far to render the present season memorable in the annals of steam navigation on the Clyde. The screw steamer European, Captain M'Callum, sailed on her passage for London about 10 minutes past 12 on Sunday morning, and when off the Cloch, about 1 o'clock, was run into by the schooner Castlehill, of Bangor, from Belfast to Glasgow, laden with lime, which went down almost instantly from the effects of the collision, and one of the crew met an untimely death. The following particulars we have learnt from Captain lSl‘Callum: The night was dark and overcast with clouds, with strong breezes from the south-west. The steamer at 1 o'clock was off the Cloch, about a mile and a half from the shore, and to the east of the lighthouse, which ap peared to be about two and a half miles distant, when the look-out reported a vessel ahead carrying no light. As soon as it was discovered what course the vessel, which was running free with the wind, was pursuing, and that she was on a course parallel to that cf the European, Captain Dl`Callum held on, but ordered the hers to be starboarded to increaso the distance between the vessels, all the steamer's lights being exhibited. Almost immediately, however, the schooner was ob served to port her helm, and bear right down upon the European, which stopped and reversed her engines and endeavoured to hug the shore still closer, but almost immediately afterwards she camp in contact with the schooner's waist, aft the forerigging. The unfortunate vessel must have suffered very severely, as she only remained above water for about f minutes, when she went down, leaving her masts sticking in the European's rigging, and her crew, which consisted of the master and three men, struggling in the water. The steamer's boats were instantly got out, and three of the men picked up. but the fourth was never seen. The master of the schooner, who was one of the survivors, states that his vessel bore no light, as he had caused it to be takerr in when past the Cloch, imagining that he should meet no more steamers or other vessels at that time of the night. The crew were engaged in taking in the fore ' sail, which prevented them from seeing the steamer's lights, and when they were observed the master states that he lost self-possession, and gave the usual order to " port" the helm, which, as we have said, had the effect of throwing her right across the steamer's bows. The European has not suffered much damage; the principal injury she has sustained being a split in one of her plates on the starboard bow, from which she made so much water that Captain M.Callum judged it more prudent to put back than to prosecute his voyage. —Greenock Adv. WORTHING. ALLEGED EXTRAORDINARY CONDUCT OF THE Ray. WILLIAM STUART O'BRIEN.--All extraordinary case of alleged attempt upon a girl "seven years old was investi gated before the magistrates at Viorthing;upon a charge preferred by the parent, Charles Cutuey, a labouring . man, in the employ of C. Groom, Esq. Not having re ceived any notice of the proceedings, we were not in attendance; and having been refused the perusal of the depositions or magistrates' minutes, we are unable to furnish the public with the full particulars. .We regret this the More on the part of the defendant, as they doubt lesly contain facts which, we trust, would contradict effectually the more serious allegations which are in cir culation in the town. The circumstances connected with this • affair, as fur as we have been able to collect them, are as follow:—Charles Cutney lives in a cottage at the top of Woadwater•hill, on the road leading past " Oberman Dean," the residence of Mrs. The aites. The little girl was returning from her . grandmother's at Sonapting, and her grandfather accompanied her to the foot of the lane leading up the hill to her home, where he left her: She had got . as far as nearly opposite to the back door of Mrs. Thwaites's mansion, when she sat down on a bank and took off her boot to remove a gravel stone froth it. While doing so, it is alleged that the defendant came up to her and committed an' as sault upon her .person; but it, perhaps, would have been a mercy to the defendant had we sees the depositions whereby the full extent of it might have been correctly published. Iu the absence of these, however, we do not feel ourselves justified in stating farther. Some men .were ploughing in an adjoining field, sheltered from her by a hedge; and hearing the cry of a child, one of them made .towai ds the spot. Trio defendant made off; but the child's father was soon apprized of the Circum stance,. and, - aecoinpanied by the defendant, went direct to the magistrate's clerk's office, where the investigation took place before the magistrates named above. The child was .examined by Mr. Gore, .surgeon; and after the facts had been ascertained, the bench fined the de fendant 41. and 163. cost::, being within 43. of the highest penalty allowed . by law for a common assault.—Brighten Guardian.
