She sailed later from Calcutta than the previous ships in order to have less detention at Galle for the overland mail for the Mauritius ; and the run from that point to the Cape averaged 9i knots per hour the whole way. The Calcutta met with considerable adverse wea ther on her outward passage. Between the Cape and the Mauritius she fell •in with a hurricane, which caused some detention, but she sustained no injury—a sufficient proof of her admirable seagoing qualities and excellent management. So prosperous a voyage both out and home has not failed to give great satisfaction to her pas sengers. The Port Louis Gazette, writing on the passage of the Calcutta from India to the Mauritius, says : " The following particulars have been kindly commu-. nicated by a passenger on board this fine vessel, which we readily publish. The Calcutta is the first of the Screw Company's vessels that has experienced a hurri cane, and she has proved her qualities as a good sea boat. Captain Hall has also had his experience, science, and skill fairly tested, and has been found well up to the mark. " The Calcutta left the Sandheads on the 21st of January at 10 p.m., and had an exciting race with the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Pottinger down to Madras, the Calcutta taking the lead and beating by some hours—all the time fair steaming—no wind. " The trifling accident to the fittings of her %crew which caused the delay (so vexatious to her commander) at this island on her outward voyage has given no trouble since, and her machinery is in the highest state of efficiency. She has had no assistance from the wind since leaving Calcutta till yesterday, when she met thd S.E. trade wind. Still she has made an excellent run down. " She encountered a hurricane three days after leaving Mauritius (December 2O), but by the judicious management of Captain Hall, who is well versed in the cyclonic theory both by experience and study, the more dangerous part was avoided, and the Calcutta rode nobly through it, not sustaining the slightest accident, though it caused her some detention." The Great Britain screw steam-ship, Captain B. Mathews, left the Cape of Good Hope on the 20th of January at 4 a.m., four days before the depar ture of the Calcutta. Her Majesty's steam-ship Dee left Simon's Bay for Algoa Bay on the 18th of February. She is expected to bring a portion of the 73d Regiment to Cape Town. The ship John Bartlett left Table Bay for London on the 20th of Febrnary, and the Albatross on the same day for Port Philip. The schooner Mary, which arrived in Mossel Bay from England on the 14th of February, was driven ashore during a heavy S.E. gale on Wednesday the 16th. She parted two anchors, and, after dragging the third, she slipped and went on shore. One of the crew was drowned, and the vessel was expected to become a total wreck. (A letter, dated February 19, states that she still held together, and that she was not insured. Her cargo has been advertised for sale.) Her Majesty's ship Polyphemus and the Austra lian Royal mail steamship Adelaide were at St. Helena on the 4th of March. The Adelaide had been detained there seven days for coal, and was then filling up with wood. The St. _Helena Herald of the 3d of March con tains a long letter from Mr. Robert Young, one of the passengers by the Royal Australian Mail Com pany's steam-ship Adelaide, Captain Jackson, which sailed from Plymouth on the 3d of January, arrived at St. -Vincent's on the 17th, and, after a delay of y r y days, left for the Cape. On the 10th of February she crossed the Line, and, on the 16th, it was found that the coal was insufficient to take her, to the Cape. Mr. Young writes :-- " The screw of the Adelaide cannot be lifted, and, in consequence of some peculiarity in her construction, she will not steer without steam while the propeller is in the water. Being therefore dependent upon fuel, and not only for progress, but also for the supply of fresh water by mean of condensed steam, the captain unquestionably adopted the most prudent course. We reached this port on the 20th, and again were we destined to meet with disappointment. We found no coal in the market, and are necessitated to do the best we can to obtain wood. Ido not like, with out good and sufficient cause, to express any censure on a public company ; and it is but justice to the company in question to state, that several coal vessels had been dispatched to St. Vincent's, but that the heavy and continuous gales in the Channel had prevented their timely arrival ; and also to state that the Adelaide has been found to consume a much larger quantity of coal than the directors were taught to believe would be suffi cient But, while I readily make these admissions, I nevertheless have a very strong opinion that more care ought to have been taken to provide for contingencies. Had less merchandise and more coal been received on board at Plymouth, we might have avoided the delay and expense incurred at St Vincent's and St. Helena. When as passengers we paid our money, we were told very confidently that in 75 days the vesssel would reach Sydney. But 77 days have already elapsed since the 14th of December, and we have performed only about one-third of our voyage. This unexpected delay is truly vexatious to the captain and his officers, highly incon venient to the passengers. and to some of them may even be ruinous. The General Screw Steam-Shipping Company's steamer Queen of the South was steaming out of Ascension on the 7th of March, when the Calcutta entered. the rivers Indwe and Kei as the boundary between her Majesty's territories and his own. Reductions in the various forces hitherto engaged in the war were immediately to take place. We subjoin the following details from the Cape papers : (From the Monthly Summary of the Cape Monitor, Feb. 23.) Since our last summary little has occurred on the frontier which could in itself be regarded as an omen of our success. The war has, hoWever, long been virtually terminated, and most of the rebels would doubtless much prefer the ingleside of a settler's kitchen to the most romantic adventures and hair-breadth escapes to be en countered in the defiles of the Amatolas. Still, a few are determined to die hard, and consequently keep the police continually on the alert ; but their depredations have not been either formidable or frequent. We regret most to have to report the death of Lieut. William Currie, of the Somerset police, who was wounded some time ago while pursuing these wretches. Every atten tion was paid to the sufferer which medical skill could, dictate, but in vain. He gradually sunk under the lotEi of blood, and, at length, " one of the bravest hearts among the sons of the British settlers of Albany ceased to beat." The month of January was spent by a party of 156 Fingoes, who, commanded by Commander Cyrus and Lieutenants R. and W. Forrester, patrolled the country about the Fish River. On four or five oc casions they discovered the spoors of Kafirs, which they followed, as hounds do the trail of foxes, and succeeded in shooting a few of .the marauders and capturing some arms and horses. The difficulty of pursuit was considerable, requiring the exercise of much practical sagacity, as, in the more open places, the Kafirs attempted to mislead our men, by walking back{ wards, and by giving to thekyestiges across a dusty road the appearance of babobn -- traeks. But,eur men, under the able guidance of Mr. P. Koester, were liofto be baffled by tricks as old as the days of Cacus. On the 18th January Piet Koester was severely wounded, but was carried off by his companions a distance of 18 miles. On the same day was wounded, at Koester's Drift, J. M. Ferreira, the son of the lamented Field Cornet Ferreira, who was shot a few days before by Brander's Hottentots. An examination of the fallen rebels led to the conclusion that they had formed a sort of rear-guard of Brander's gang. On the evening of the same day occurred one of those unexpected successes which serve to show that the battle is not always to the strong, nor the race to the swift. John Klaas ' a Hot tentot in the service of Mr. W. H. Daniell, of Sidbury Park, had proceeded with two waggons as far as Howi son's Poort, when be saw ts+o Kafirs driving eight oxen. Unable to answer his interrogations they ran off, leaving the oxen behind. Shortly after, he captured 14 more, and at daylight the following morning found 16 oxen with their reams on, mixed With the 14. Either a panic seized the thieves, or they may have intended it as a ruse to put the Albany farmers off their guard. The execution of Job David, the condemned rebel, took place at King William's Town. From a letter written by his spiritual attendant on the occasion, we learn that he had deserted with others from the Cape Mounted Rifles, because Laverlot (of Kat River) had written letters persuading them to make a speedy escape, as the English had made preparation for making all the Hottentots slaves.. He fled to the bush, and was in the mountains about a year ; but getting tired of such a sinful and miserable life he repaired to Pato's location. On - this narrative some obvious reflections may be made. First, the efficacy of Kat River messages upon the minds of men who bad nothing to complain of. Kat River seems to have been regarded as a sort of mis sionary sanctuary, from , which every lie issued forth clothed in the garb of gospel truth. Secondly, we may note the mental grouping of ideas in the deserter's con fession: His life of want and hardship in the mountains is identical with a sinftil life—indicating that, in Hotten tot parlance, plenty and righteousness, hunger and sin, are convertible terms. We must infer that the system of instruction adopted by the London missionaries at Kat River must be both dangerous and. injudicious, since it has fostered an influence over their proteges so unwar ranted and so liable to abuse. _ During the month, 18 or 20 rebel Hottentots were tried by court-martial, and sentenced to two years' im prisonment, with hard labour. Such a sentence, or one even more severe, has been often passed on natives con victed in the Supreme Court of larceny or attempted burglary. Rebellion, which by implication contains the elements of every crime, is by this sentence exhibited to the.coloured people as scarcely more • heinous than the theft of a sheep 1 Reference was lately made to the numbers of coloured people located in the precincts of Graham's Town, who were found to be living unsupervised, and in a semi lawless state. A census has been made, and their num bers found to be $,OOO. "- Witchcraft has been manifesting itself among the Fin goes at Graham's Town and Fort Peddie. In the latter place the magistrate has detected and punished two witch doctors, and has latterly committed a Fingo to prison on a charge of wilful murder. It appears that a child was sick, and the native saga having pointed out another man as the cause, the father was instigated to shoot the imaginary offender. At Graham's Town, the headman of one of the Fingoe kraals has deposed before the clerk of the peace to curious facts, which prove at once the extent of native credulity and superstition. A woman was alleged to be pregnant with snakes, and serious con sequences might have ensued had not the headman fined the husband 50 rix-dollars. The husband, however, evades payment, and hence the application of the Fingo headman to have the penalty enforced by the British authorities. A sawyer, named Ward, who was wounded some time ago in Oliphant's Hoek, has died. The victim in this instance was a man in humble life, but the result of rebel treachery would have been the same though the object had been the noblest of England's aristocracy. Reviewing the past, let us count up the costly nature of the price which we have paid for our philandering policy towards the natives, and no man of common humanity can fail to be struck with its unfortunate issue, and the consequent necessity of altering the system completely. During a severe thunder-storm Mr. Munford's kraal was forced by the enemy, and 50 head of cattle were stolen ; but through the activity of the police all were recovered except one. By a notice, dated Jan. 25, 1853, a board has been appointed "to investigate and report upon all claims for losses of cattle, or waggons captured or destroyed by the enemy, while in the eisloy of Government during the war.' Flying rumours have been rife respecting the demean our and intentions of Kreli and the deposed rebel chiefs. According to some parties, Sandilli [and Macomo are desirous of peace ; according to others, they are watch ing the • course of events, ready to take advantage of any false or faltering movement on our side. Again, Kreli is reported as intensely afraid of another com mando, yet evading the payment of the fine imposed by Sir H. Smith. By last post, however, it seems he has sent an instalment of 100 head, and some assagais. Scores of mounted men, however, are said to be passing Clarkebury. A meeting of the chiefs at King . William's Town is spoken of, but General Cathcart maintains a prudent silence regarding his ulterior measures, and the rumour is so far unauthenticated by official announcement. Lieutenant• Colonel Eyre, of the 73d, being about to proceed to England, for the benefit of his health, several addresses have been forwarded to him by those who have long been spectators of his heroic gallantry and valour. Lieutenant-Colonel Napier, being appointed to a higher command in Canada, has been entertained by the officers of the Cape Mounted Rifles in the most enthusi astic and respectful manner. Nothing seems clearer than that Moshesh, having been convicted of a theft on a great scale, was properly fined ; and that his having resisted the payment by force of arms only aggravates his former offence. That his Excellency has forborne tolpress his claims is by no means tantamount to saying that the claim has been satisfied or remitted. The Trans-Vaal Boers have taught us a lesson which we should have known long ago. They strike no hesi tating blow, nor allow their humanity to be abused by the machinations of political missionaries. Their attack. upon Secheli, and their expulsion of two London mis sionaries, are marks of a promptitude and decision which we look for in vain among the annals of our own South African policy. A well-informed correspondent to' one of- the frontier papers remarks upon these events, and states that " a complete gunsmith's shop was found on the premises of one of the missionaries (near Secheli's place), with guns in all stages of repair ;" and then very properly asks if such an establishment is necessary for the conversion of the heathen ? The commission which has been sitting to take evi dence on the state of the native tribes, and the best me thod of dealing with them, has finished its sittings. The recapitulation of evidence will be interesting ; but the whole of their proceedings have not yet come to hand. Since the above was written, intelligence has been re ceived of, the proclamation of peace with Krell, and a report that th i p proscribed Kafir chiefs, Macomo and Sandilli, have retreated across the Kei, and Kreli's having sued for peace. The notices and proclamations which announce this welcome news will be found in an other column. negotiation. This condition having now been ostensibly complied with, there seems a prospect that some kind of peace will shortly be agreed upon., Several of San dilli's councillors are stated to have arrived at head quarters with the chief's " word," and been admitted to an audience, but the nature of the arrangements proposed on either side has not yet been made public. Whatever these arrangements may be, it is now cer tain that General Cathcart intends to retain military possession of the Amatolas until her Majesty's pleasure be known on the subject. In a Government Notice re cently issued, he announces his intention to establish townships and villages in th• neighbourhood of sufficient military forts and garrisons, in that portion of the lands formerly occupied by the Gaikas, named the Keiskamma Hoek, and invites applications for land from the " de serving persons who have fought nobly in the ranks of colonial leTies and other corps during the rebellion now happily suppressed." As the grants, however, are of wofully small extent, and subject to a condition of bond fide residence, it is evident that his Excellency wishes to discourage the system of speculating in suchlands, which has frequently produced extensive evil in- this country. The-first settlers are to be rationed for six months, and provided with implements, seeds, &c. ; and in the event of the Home Government abandoning the project, com pensation is to be given them, either in money or land elsewhere. Notwithstanding this apparently promising condition of affairs over the border, the frontier districts have not been wholly free from depredation. Several serious losses of cattle and horses have taken place ; and Kafir scouts and small parties of rebel Hottentots are continu ally met with, far within the more settled parts of the colony. These circumstances naturally tend to keep up a feeling of insecurity in the country, and many of the Eastern colonists are, it is said, determined, if peace be not speedily and satiikaotorily restored, to seek for hap pier homes in the land of the golden East. llp to-theiirrivaliaf the last post the state of affairs in Kreli's country, - the soene of General. Cathcart's first "foray," was looked upon as very unsatisfactory. The remainder of the fine imposed upon that chief for the destruction of missionary property at•Buttervrorth had not been paid ; and it appeared that a number of his people, the Amagaleki, assisted by refuge rebel Hotten tots, have fallen upon the Tambookies and destroyed several of their kraals. A party of them visited the missionary station of Morley in quest of gunpowder, but were prevented from obtaining it by the address and courage of the missionary's wife. Subsequent reports stated that the station had been destroyed, but of this we have no certain information. All accounts, however, concurred in representing the Amagaleki territory as in 'a state of dangerous confusion. _ _ Kreli, feeling, doubtless, that this was a condition of things which might lead to a second visit from General Cathcart, took time by the forelock and sent in messen-: gers professing great contrition and humility. With a; bundle of assegais, in token of submission, he also sent about 100 cattle as a further instalment of his fine, plead ing poverty and that the Boers had plundered him of great numbers. He admitted that he had been severely punished, and begged for a remission of the remainder of the fine and for peace, and the hand of peace was at once held out to him. A proclamation issued by the Gover nor on the 14th instant, at King William's Town, announces that peace and amity have been restored betiveen Majesty and her faithful friend Kreli, who, on kis part, promises to be true and faithful to all his engagements, and to regard the rivers Indwe and Kei as the boundary between her Majesty's territories and his own (thus, by the way, sponging Kafirland from the map.) He engages to keep his people from disturbing the Tambookies, and to be responsible for the lives and property of British subjects within his territory—they, however, making their own agreements with him as to the terms on which they shall be permitted to reside there; and he further engages to recover and restore stolen cattle, horses, or other property traced into his country, and to punish the thieves ; and also to deliver up murderers, robbers, &c.,. who may escape into his territories from her Majesty's dominions. These events are in some degree satisfactory to the colonists, as they hold out a prospect of a cessation of those miserable hostilities which have entailed such heavy calamities upon them. For further and more com plete relief from their long continued sufferings they look with confidence to the speedy establishment, under a Reform Ministry and a Reform Parliament, of those free representative institutions which would prevent hereafter what is now found so difficult of cure. THE KAFIR WAR. By the Calcutta we . have received intelligenc respecting the termination of the war at the Cape; which, should it prove true, cannot fail to give general satisfaction. Since the return of the Governor from Basuta land all had remained quiet in that quarter. His Excellency had closed accounts with Moshesh with out leaving any claim or balance as the germ of future litigation. General Cathcart was making preparations for The following summary is extra c t e d from the posts in strong positions, within I holding theAmatolas as a settleme th n e t, wi dis t ta h n m ee ilit e a f ry a Th Cape Town Mail of Feb. 22 : try, after the battle of Berea, no furthe r h os tilities have Since General Cathcart's return from th e Basuto coun ofm i l a e r , a b b l e e s i g r d e o s u o n ff d e l o i n n gt the o e resident conditions e o t t f l r e o r s s i a d l e l n o t o m e e a n n t d a t K ak in e g n mrplialiceia.m,sllTeoa own, - 13 7 w a r h t e e r r e s t a h r e e 4 a g 3 d a , i n 4 e 7 s th ta , b a li n s d he 7 d 4t a h t defence.

" Sandilli ordered us to come direct to Pato, and to ask him to acquaint Maclean that he had crossed the Bei; that he had no more strength to fight with the English ; that he is beaten and driven from his country; and that he has obeyed the Governor's word' by crossing the Kei, and he now asks the Governor where he may desire him to rest in peace.

Whereas his Excellency the Commander-in-Chief and High Commissioner of British Kafraria is desirous—now that the rebellious Gaika tribe have been expelled from the Amatolas and other lands formerly occupied by them, but now forfeited to the Crown—that certain townships or vil lages in the close vicinity of sufficent military posts and garrisons, to provide for their security, should be esta blished without delay; And whereas numerous applications for land have been made by deserving persons who have fought nobly in the ranks of colonial levies and other eorps during the rebel lion now happily suppressed, his Excellency the Com mander-in-Chief and High Commissioner is pleased to or der as follows : 1. That, commencing with the Keishamma Hoek—where there is a permanent barrack and fort, and where there is abundance of good land and water, as well as of open land for pasture, with capability of irrigation, there shall be traced and defined a certain surrounding space of not more than one mile radius in the first instance, but to be enlarged hereafter if found expedient, within which space building and garden lots or " erven" shall be laid out. These build ing lots will not exceed a quarter of an acre each, as the first object is to form as compact a town as possible ; but allotment gardens will be laid out, as far as practicable, having a frontage to the river and outside of the space re served for the town ; and these will contain a space of one acre, or half an acre each, as may be desired, which will be let for one or three years on lease, on easy terms, to holders of " erven" in the town who desire to cultivate them. In like manner larger spaces for cultivation will also be let to persons who may wish to cultivate on a more extensive scale, but in every case gardeners will be required to en close their gardens with a sufficient fence ; the wood and stone in the close neighbourhood will furnish abundant materials. 2. That all persons desiring to become possessed of such " erven" may send in their applications in writing, backed by the certificate of the officers under whom they have served, if military, or by a magistrate, if not military, addressed to the resident magistrate at King William's Town. _ _ 3. That a board shall be forthwith formed, consisting of the'resrdent magistrate, an officer of Royal Engineers, and one other member whom the Chief Commissioner may think fit to appoint, to consider the said applications and make the allotment accordingly. 4. These giants shall, in the first instance, be provisional, and be held on the same tenure as those granted at King William's Town, but to be convertible into freehold or no minal quit rent, as hereinafter provided, on the final set tlement of the district. And should the Crown see fit to abandon the project of the proposed settlement in the Ama tolas, the holders of such grants shall receive an equivalent in land elsewhere, or compensation in money, at the option of the Government, for the value of all dwellings erected on their allotments, also for their fields or garden crops. 5. The said "erven," so granted, shall not be alienable until they shall have been two years in occupation. Each erf so granted must be occupied, and some sort of dwelling built in such position as shall be directed, and inhabited band fide within six month after the notification of the grant to the applicant, otherwise that grant will be can celled, and the erf transferred to another. And an erf once occupied, and a dwelling constructed, should it be abandoned and left unoccupied for six months, it will in like manner be forfeited, but it will be lawful to let or lend it, so that bona fide occupation be insured. 6. The owners of "erven" will have free commonage for pasture within such limits of the forest of the Amatolas as the officer commanding the post may consider safe, and certain kraals, either common or private, will be constructed at such places as may be selected by an appointed officer of Royal Engineers, and all cattle must be duly brought into kraal at the appointed hours. 7. The free use of all firewood - and all such timber as may be required for building or for constructing fences will be granted, but no timber will be cut down and carried away for purposes of trade out of the said forest without licence granted by the Chief Commissioner, on such terms as may be hereafter appointed. 8. Every male inhabitant above the age of 16 will be required to provide himself with a gun and be prepared to assist in defence of his own property and that of the com munity in case of need. 9. The Crown retains right of resumption of any allot ment for public purposes, compensating the holder or occupier. 10. No higher rate of quitrent than ss. per annum for each erf shall be affixed on a town allotment granted within the Srst limits now appointed. 11. Tools and agricultural implements and garden seeds will be given gratis to each holder of a building lot on occu pation. 12. Rations will be given to the occupiers of " erven" in this new township, for themselves and wives and children, for the first six months from the date of their occupation. By command of his Excellency the Governor and High Commissioner, W. F. LIDDLE, Secretary to her Majesty's high Commissioner. MESSAGE FROM KRELI. •GOVERMENT NOTICE. King William's Town, Feb. 14.

He wishes Maclean to know that he has been very severely punished. The Boers and troops entered his country eight times, and each commando took a great many cattle. Kreli wishes for peace, and he now sends 90 head of cattle, and hopes that the Government will consider it sufficient, as the troops have taken so many thousands from him.

God save the Queen. Given under my hand and seal at King William's Town, this 15th day of February, 1853. GEO. CATHCART, Governor and High Commissioner. By command of his Excellency the Governor and High Commissioner. W. F. LIDDLE, Secretary.to his Excellency the Governor and her Majesty's • High Commissioner. ( From the Shipping Gazette of Feb. 25.) Prospects of peace are at length being manifested on the frontier. Kreli having deputed his chief counsellor Umhala to sue for peace, his Excellency the Governor has issued a proclamation announcing that this appeal has been complied with upon certain conditions, which are to the effect that he must be faithful to his engage ments, must recognise the line of the Indwe and Kei as the boundary between her Majesty's territories and Ms own, must assist in recovering stolen property traced into his country, and also further the ends of justice by causing the punishment of any offenders that may trans gress British laws. With respgct to missionaries and traders, his Excellency disclaims any intention of inter fering in any of their arrangements beyond holding the chief responsible for the security of their lives and pro perty. Slndilli had also deputed two special messengers to acquaint the Governor that he, with Macomo, Anta, and Tola, had crossed the Kei, and that Stock, Xoxo, and Oba were about to follow ; that he was completely beaten ; and, having obeyed the Governor's " word" by crossing the Kei, "he now asked the Governor where he might desire him to rest in peace." A Government notice has been issued announcing the Governor's intention of forming villages in the Keiskam ma Hoek, the territory formerly occupied by the Gaika tribe, and applications are to be received (preference being given to persons who have been engaged in the present war), for the various allotments of land. His Excellency proposes to make these grants under ex tremely favourable conditions, such as providing the several occupiers with agricultural implements, seeds, and other necessaries, as well as rations for their families for the first six months, an immediate and continued re sidence being a chief stipulation. Each village is to be situated near some fort or garrison, and in case the pro ject should be abandoned by the home Government, com pensation is to be made to all who had been located and had been put to expense. _ . . . Reductions in tlie various forces hitherto engaged are immediately to take place. The following corps, &c., are to be discontinued at the end of the present month —The Albany Rangers ; the Ist. and 2d European Levy, with its officers ; the Shiloh Fingo Levy and its officers; the junior captain and junior subaltern of the Ist Euro pean Corps ; the command, pay, and allowances . to & Captain Stevenson as commanding the Mancazana s tria ; and the Garrison Sergeant-Major at Whittlesea. It is reported that the chief Katna has visited his Ex cellency at King William's Town, and that the object. of his visit was to propose removal from Kamastone, present location, to a position along the Keiskamma, as a kind of frontier defence. FRONTIER. (From the Graham's Town Journal Extra.) Since our Saturday's issue we have communications from British Kaffraria to the 11th instant. From these we learn that Kreli had sent home 90 Lead of cattle in further payment of his debt of 1,500 head, two thirds of which are still due. These cattle are said to be of a very inferior description, but on which we need not remark, as their actual value will be as certained when sold, as we are informed they were to be forthwith. In all matters of this character it should be kept carefully in mind that the payment or non-payment of a fine is only regarded so far as it tests in any degree the true feelings towards the colony of the party or people from whom it is demanded. In the pre sent case the payment of 1,500 head of cattle would be a very light infliction, and bear no proportion whatever to the offences given by the Galas and the property of British subjects openly pillaged or wantonly destroyed by them. Kreli has shown himself to be utterly faithless, and as weak as he is vicious. With such a man any re liance we may place on diplomacy is absurd. He is quite incapable of understanding, neither will he respect, any thing save the strong arm, and if this be not extended to him, then we may depend upon it he will give us no credit for magnanimity, but will attribute to incapacity and fear what may actually spring from motives of a very opposite character. It should never be lost sight of for a moment that in mistaken dealing with the natives may be found all our difficulties. Wrapt up in our own fancied superiority, we enter upon schemes which are utterly incongruous to the habits and train of thought of those with whom we have to deal. They look amazed at our of folly,umh manifested .a of t the same time are not slow in turning to account our weak nesses and our blunders. Who does not perceive that Kreli is at this moment feeling the pulse of the colony t e t s ourte d 3e KWaefirarsaayre as blind Who can be unaware of the duplicity the strong bias which that crafty old chief has eyesdur i during the these whole fse t s o , f and d e present foney th that a t r h sh i n as ourselves—and they will pretend to be so, but it is only to serve a purpose, of which they will fully convince us in the long run. _From the Official documents which have come to hand it seems that his Excellency the Governor has entered upon the rather delicate and difficult task ©f reducing the war establishment. This is no d ou b t unavoidable, as i n fact there is no visible enemy w ith whom to contend. Amongst other reductions we remark the discontinuance Albany Rangers, and this is due to that body io o o f t 11 gallantan men, that they ould not be disbanded t: w hich they are of - t the ex pression of that public commendation of t e w r of the war, deserving.

The second NATAL. ( From tke Natal Mercury, Jan. O.) His Honour the Lieutenant-Governor was about to proceed to Graham's Town, on a visit to his Excellency the Governor, when the Sir Robert Peel left. He will return to Natal by the next steamer, joining at Algoa Bay. _ _ On Tuesday, Major Preston was sworn in as acting lieutenant-governor, in the place of Colonel Boys, the state of whose health, and intended departure from the colony, ha ve necess it a t e d his retirement. His Honour afterwards held a levee. Scheepers, the re-captured convict, whose wanderings after his escape from our prison extended to the Zula country, declares that there are Englishmen in Panda's service, by whom his army is regularly drilled and trained. THE CUSTOMS RETURNS.—The returns for the quarter ending sth January exhibit a much nearer approxima tion of the value of imports and exports than has just occurred. The imports show a very large failing off, while the exports are considerably increased. Mr. Cato, who had been on a tour to the southward of Natal, returned to that place on the 22d of January. He had gone as far as the Umtata River, h av i ng pro ceeded by the inland route, and returned along the coast. Mr. Cole passed through the same country some years back, and expresses himself astonished at the dif ference in the condition of the native tribes. During his former tour he saw but few poople, but now he pa sse d through a dense population, who were rich in cattle and bold in their bearing. He had seen what was said:to be the wreck of the Grosvenor, which occurred about 80 years ago ; but both Mr. Cato and his'companion, from indications which they saw, believed the fragments to belong to a catastrophe of an earlier date. THE BURMESE AND KAFIR WARS. ( From the Times.) The intelligence which reached us yesterday from the seat of war in the Birmese Empire, and also from the eastern boundaries of the Cape of Good Hope, happily warrants a belief in the speedy termination of these harassing conflicts. In Asiatic monarchies the usual consequence of pressure applied to the State by a foreigfi enemy is a revolution in the palace, and Sovereigns, ac countable to no other law, are commonly xaade the vic tims of their own presumption and obstinacy by the disafreethimiks k i.joaammixe, theii aearest relatives. A catastrophe of this sort app'exsl2s - I:tate occurred at....tbe Court of Ava. The Golden-footed Monarch, who was - inaccessible to the remonstrances of , the British Govern- meat, and who defied the languid attacks of General Godwin, finds himself surrounded by more dangerous enemies. A younger brother; who is said to be sup, ported by the army, has decla;ed against the Sovereign, and it may reasonably be hoped that the next account* will apprise us that the Prince whose obstinacy has led to these hostilities is deposed. His successor will probably mount the throne with the assent o' the British Government in India,, and he will inaugurate his reign by relieving the country from the severe hard ships which the blockade and occupation of the great rivers have inflicted on the population. Such, at least, is the ordinary course which events have followed hr similar disputes with the potentates of the East ; and, although no confidence can be placed in the assurances of an Asiatic prince who ascends the throne under such circumstances, it is probable that the prime movers of the war at the Court of Ava will have fallen in this dis turbance, and that the first care of the new Government will be to restore peace. The provinces of Pegu and Bassein have already been evacuated by the enemy, and the Burmese forces are more concentrated in the vicinity of the. capital. Ambassadors had, however, already ar rived on a pacific mission in General Godwin's camp ; and there is strong reason to hope that the principal labour of the campaign is at an end. Unhappily this gratifying improvement in the general state of our affairs upon the Irrawaddy is clouded by an incident of a very melancholy and distressing char..cter. We knew, from the last advises, that an attack was about to be made upon a strong position at Donabew ' where a marauding chief; with upwards of a thousand followers, had occupied the square of the Pagoda, and „ejected the head man of the town, who had ben faithful to the British throughout the war. These marauders, or da,coits, as they were called in the army, had already given the forces some trouble, for they occupy a country covered with jungle and intersected with creeks, in the unknown delta of 'the river. Very recently a squadron of boats and a steamer had been sent against them, and had returned with loss, never having seen the enemy, though 'they ascended a narrow creek, - staked in several places, and were exposed to a galling fire. It was therefore thought necessary to renew the attack on these formidable robbers with a larger force, and Captain Granville Lock, the flag-captain of the Winchester, who had already shown the greatest activity and ability in maintaining the communication by water between Prome and Rangoon, determined to lead this enterprise in per son ; for, since' his arrival on the station last autumn, he has been foremost wherever there was an enemy to be encountered or a service to be performed. We learn from the brief tenour of the telegraphic dispatch, which gives us no further particulars, that the result of this attack proved most unfortunate. It was repulsed by the natives with very severe loss, amounting to no less than 88 killed and wounded out of a party which cannot have exceeded 300 or 400. Two guns were also lost ; and, as if to render this disas ter the most painful occurrence in the campaign, it was marked by the death of Captain Loch himself, who com manded the expedition, and of Lieutenant Kennedy, of the Fox, while several other officers and mates were se verely wounded. We must await the arrival of the mails for further information on the causes of this cala mity •, but throughout the service there will be one feel ing of deep regret for the premature loss of these gallant gentlemen. Captain Granville Loch had found oppor tunities to distinguish himself even during a period of general peace. In 1841 he was posted, and in the following year he went out in the Dido to serve as a volunteer on the staff of Lord Gough in the war in China ; he was also present with Sir Henry Pottin ger at all the conferences which terminated that war ; and in 1846 he obtained the command of the Alarm (26), then on the West India station. In this capacity Captain Loch conducted a very spirited expe dition in boats up the river San Juan de Nicaragua (the scene of one of Nelson's early exploits), which enabled him to adjust the differences then existing between the British Government and the Nicaraguan Republic, and to dictate a treaty with that state. For this service he received from her Majesty the Order of the Bath, upon the recommendation of Lord Palmerston. In 1852 Captain Loch was appointed by the Duke of Northum berland to the command of the Winchester, 50, which was ordered to relieve the Hastings as flag-ship in the East Indies. So that, by a singular coincidence, his short but brilliant career was chiefly remarkable for his services in river warfare on the Yang-tse 7 Kiang, the San Juan de Nicaragua, and the Irrawaddy. Shortly after his arrival at Rangoon Admiral Austin died of cholera. The Commodore remained with the squadron off the coast, and the command of the river devolved principally on Captain Loch. I n spite of an oppressive climate and a harassing enemy he kept the communications open, and succeeded, against enormous odds, in compelling the Burmese to retire, in great measure, from the stockades and positions they held on the banks. In one of these desperate but ob scure encounters against a band of barbarous enemies he is now reported to have fallen at the head of a fright ful number of his comrades and men, on whose courage and steadiness he placed unbounded reliance, fOr they, too, knew their leader ; and, though no death can be more glorious than that of a British officer who falls in the command of seamen and troops, and in the dis charge of his duty to England, we are painfully re minded by such an occurrence at how great a price the warfare between civilisation and barbarism is carried on, for Captain Loch wanted nothing to complete his fame hut a nobler enemy and a more conspicuous field of ynati sugge s t , i ncrease on of th ese f a t a l action. These considerations, which the los s of such officers as Captain Loch in Burrnah, and Major Wil mot, with many ur , a b i l l e a t t l e t i r . a m l campaigns. At the Cape, it appears that G overnor Cathcart has not only subdued the tribes on th e front i er. o sat o i t s j f i a e c r t s ion at at the Cap o b e pr but, what is of more importance, has closed the disputed transactions with them. Mosheish is at peace ; Basuta land is tranquil ; Saudilla and Macomo have retired be yond the Kei, and announced their submission ; and peace and amity have been restored between the British Government and Kreili, • with the Kei for a boundary. These are by far the most complete accounts we have yet received of the discomfiture of the enemy, and, in spite of the distrust with which we cannot but regard anything like good knews from British Kafraria, it seems more probable than it has ever done before th at the war is at an end. We still learn, indeed, with some apprehension, that the Governor has resolved to convert the Amatolas into a military settlement, on a system which seem analogous to that of the military frontier of Austr ia ; but it is, perhaps, necessary to guard that mountainous region from again becoming a fastness and retreat for predatory bands of Kafirs, and we hope the sturdy farmers of Southern Africa, will be in • duced by allotments of Crown lands to hold this position. At any rate, this is the last time that England will submit to the cost and loss attending ent of ath savages large army in a war against e employni for the defence of a territory utterly worthless t o ourselves. Now that the honour of th e Q ueen ' s arms is retrieved, and the power of this country vindicated, the abandonment of these remote and unproductive pro vinces would be preferable to any attempt t o h o ld th em on such terms. When we have placed the colonial population of the Cape in the most favourable conditions for self-defence, we have done all that we can reasonably be required to do ; and, if that is not enough for their protection, the next step must be to draw the colony within limits in which a more compact population and a greater proximity to the seat of government will insure its tranquillity. A. WHOLESALE POLYGAMIST.—A fellow named Joseph Wardle was, in September last, committed by the dis trict magistrates to Gloucester gaol, to await his trial for bigamy at the spring assizes. It has since be en as certained that the prisoner has married as m any as s i x wives, all of whom are now living — namely, one at Mancher, two in Staffordshire, one in the Isle of Man, the fifth at Birmingham, and the last at Dymock. Wardle's plan appears to have been to obtain a sum of money fromeach newlylnake bride, and then desert her. All the wives, it is believed, will be present at the assizes.— Cambrian.
