The Zuirl -I.frikaan, of the 7th of April, says

The government notice of the 25th ultimo is of agratify-
ing nature. We say this, in6smuch as the defeat of the
enemy, therein recorded, is the first affair that we look
upon as actually reflecting uuy credit upon the forces at
head-quarters. Hitherto we have been too muchaccustomed
to the old tune of marching and counter-marching along the
high road, and upon being assailed making a charge upon
the enemy and marching on again.
We do not, however, estimate so highly the advantages
gained by this engagement, nor do we beheve that there is
any present prospect of the war being soon brought to a
conclusion ; but such lessons as the one recently taught, it
followed up with rapidity, will certainly prove the only
means to lessen the period of protraction.
With the Wilms at open war,—with a reinforcement to
their ranks front the *Slambies,—with the connivance of the
Amagalekas,—with the Tiunbookies, and almost every
native chief throughout British Calfraria, and the Sove-
reignty in arms—sail the Hottentot rebellion and defection
in the army to boot,—what actual proved is there, wo
presume to ask, of a speedy termination to hostilities.
With such facts on record, nu general order can have
any effect. The danger is nut diminishing, but progressive,
and the worst part of the present rupture may yet have
to be enacted. At the outset the commander-in-chief
had to deal only with the Gaika clan,, now the number of
his adversaries are tenfold. Let there be no hope held out,
therefore, of approaching peace, when war is yet raging
with all its horrors, and may inflict calamities upon the
colony never yet recorded its the pages of its history.
The praise bestowed on men who hare nobly done their
duty to their Queen and country is well earned, and is after
W bat a poor recompense fur the dangers which they have
braved at the peril of their lives ; but, whilst trumpeting
forth this praise, let us not, in the description of our achieve-
ments and tl.t• result. likely to Now therefrom, resort to hy-
perbole. fly so doing we unconsciously induce expectations
never to b.: realised, or perhaps only at some distant period;
and who can estimate the disgust which any reverse may
produce, or the obloquy that it will entail upon the devoted
head of him who may, with a mind inflated by recent vie
tory, have held out such expectations ?
trust our own apprehensions may have pictured an
aspect to us inure gloomy than in reality it is, but the facts
Wort us only strengthen our

ROMAN STATES.

Our Roman correspondent, writing on the 20th
Nov., states that the police authorities were in great
hopes of discovering the secret press which had an-
noyed them so much. Extensive arrests were going
on with that view. ecveral officers of dragoons were
imprisoned, and 17 non-commissioned officers of the
Line dismissed. General °entente* speech to his
staff was considered by the priests as indicative of
his devotion to the papal cause. Inquisitors and
Jesuit; had been making depositions before the
British consul against I )r. Aelii
The Roman ecclesiastics had made public efforts
to convert English visitors to their churches, and
more British subjects had been subjected to the out-
rages of the Aim'.
General Gemeau had apologized in the handsomest
manner to Mr. Pemberton, for the affront that gen-
tleman had undergone at the theatre, and had
im-
prisoned the offi•nding French officers.

Business in railway shares to-day has been much
more considerable than usual on the last day of the
week, a decided disposition to operate being
pont still evinced. !together, the market must
be considered ch better, as in spite of
a lit* tern flatness which was mani-
fested In the early tof the day, a pretty general

The Stock Exchange to-day wears the inanimate
aspect usual on the last day of the week, with the
single exception of the railway share department,
which continues to attract a good deal of attention.
Under the stimulating influence of the favourable
Bank returns, the prices of the home funds are

Consols have ruled all day at yesterday's rate of
9R.1 to both for money and the 11th December,
whilst for the January account the quotation may
be taken at a quarter higher, viz., 9,41 to 99. The
following are the only stocks in which business is
officially marked:—Three per Cent. Consols, 98, 1;

971, ; New Three-and-a• Quarter per Cents., 981,

The present abundance of capital, and still more
the general opinion of the prospective caso of the

dency of the floating debt.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

WEEKLY SUMMARY OF TILE PRODUCE
MARKETS.

MINCING-LANE, SATCHDAT MORNING.

The Colonial markets present little alteration, but they
are slightly firmer. There has been rather more disposition
to purchase Sugar, and as the quantities offered have not
been large, steady rates hare b:en obtained. At the
clew of last week a speculative demand arose for Coffee,
and conoidceable business was done, at a ri-.e ofabout Is. Rd.
per cwt., but yesterday the sales went otf &Sr, and the
advance has been scarcely maintained. Native Ceylon
rose to 104. to 40s. ti.l. ; but at these rates there are not
now any buyers. Rice 11311 been at about 3d. per cwt.
advance. The tea market has been very inactive, and
prices of somu kinds are barely supported.

cate as King of Sicily, in favour of his son Francis.
A portion of the inhabitants of Palermo declared

IrriumußAL BrieviNG—ALlvE.—The country re-
quirel, on fanitary grounds, a legislative measure fur the
general prevention of intramural interment. 01 couroo
the proposal of such an enactment would (smite a great deal
of opposition on the part of undertakes% and others having
" vested interests" in churchyards. Would it not also
probably be oblected to by Dr. Wiseman and his party, as
tending to the infringement of religious liberty ? For, cer-
tainly, if intramural interment is prohibited, it will fro
illegal that a young lady should be buried within the walls
of a convent.—Punch.

gentleman, it may be remembered, was one of those who
received " notice to quit " about the time that AD. Bennett
of St. Paul's, Knightsbridge, tendered his resignation. Ou
Sunday evening last Mr. Harper preached his farewell ser-
mon to a numerous congregation, In the course of which ho
intimated to his dock the step which he was about to take.
His discourse was a violent sharp attack on the constitution,
doctrines, and practices of the Qhurch of England.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.

The appointment of General Bardenfleth to the I
command of the Holstein contingent has by no
means the importance that was at first attributed to
it. From the beginning there has been no intention
to circumscribe the Danish supreme authority. It
was always intended that the Holstein contingent
should be commanded by Danish officers. The fact
has nothing in common with the pending negotia-
, lions. At the very moment that it takes place, the
great German powers have determined that the
federal troops shall not be withdrawn from the north
till all the Danish and Duchy affairs arc satisfacto-
rily terminated.
In the popular chamber (Volksthioge), on the Ist
inst., M. Kampman demanded from the ministry
I further explanations upon the state of negotiation
with foreign powers, and also a fuller statement ofl
the policy it was intended to pursue. It was pro-
pose(' by the government that communications to
this effect should be made in a secret sitting; lint
this being objected to, it was agreed that on the 4th
the chamber should decide whether the discussion of
this subject should be open or secret. Meantime, if
one may judge by the Berlivachen Zeititng, the
people are much exasperated by the demands made
by the great German powers, which they are, by this
I and other papers of the same colour, recommended
most vigorously to withstand.

THAMES.

Henry West, cutter out at a slopsellers' in the City, was
summoned for refusing to contribute to the support of his
illegitimate child. The case proved was one of great atrocity. '
The mother, a girl aged 16, deposed that she became se-
quainted with the defendant about twelve months ago when
she applied for employment at shirt•making at an establish-
ment in the Commercial-road, at which be then gave out
work. The defendant gave her shirts to make, which be
directed her to bring, when finished, to his own house, and
upon her doing so he made use of his influence to effect her
ruin. lie had since frequently visited her at her lodgings.
The magistrate made the usual order after expressing his
indignation at defendant's conduct.

The woman was lying upon the flour to all sppearaseee

dewribed the wounds, which were sixteen in number, sad .
they had been indicted upon various parts of her penes.
One of thaw was es the left side of the chest over the
second rib. uhieli was fractured about an inch and a half
from the breast bone, and on tracing that wound, upon
staking • poet mortern ersiaisiation, he found that it had
penetrated two important blood vessels to the covering of
the heart. The wound alluded to was of itself sallicient to
cause death. The wounds were all of • triangolar shape,
and the 81e prod reed was just the kind of instrument with
which the fatal inlory might base been indicted.

ruptcy, which took place on the 't•ith of June last, obtained
on credit on the lith of April raw silk of the value of 119/.,

street, silk brokers, under the pretence of requiring the
some in the ordinary course of business, when in fact he

nership with Mr. Fetlock. I know the primmer at the bar.

MARLBOROUGH STREET.

frilliont lon, ;;; ii;tl instrument ;; I ei,l , Manches-
ter-place, New road ; James Cowley, Henry-street, Penton-
ville, and James George Crow, ivory turner, 3, Now North-
road, Islington, were charged with having conspired toge-
ther to defraud a Loan Society, held at 3, Upper St. Mar-
tin's-lane.
_ _

Mr. Barrow, for the prosecution, alleged that the pri-
sonen formed part of a gang of persons who were linked
together for the purpose of obtaining loans by fraudulent
means. The plan wan tor one of the party to take a house,
so as to serve as a reference to persons applying for loans,
and then for other parties to become reference or securities'
for one another. Ile should be in a condition to prove that
lon had represented himself as the landlord of the house ho
occupied in Manchester-place, that he produced receipts for
rent and taxes for upwards of two years, which receipts
were forgeries. In the case of the other two prisoners, ono
had become reference to the other fur a loan, and he should
prove the connexion with I, n by papers found in lon's
house. There were six or eight more confederates in cus-
tody in Wor.hip.strect Police-court.
James foyer said he was a money-leader, at No. 3,
Upper St. Martin's-lane. in October last a person named
Gillard applied for a loan of 51., giving a reference to the
prisoner lon. Witness went to the reference, 17, Winches-
ter-place, and saw lon, who mid ho was the landlord of the
house, and produced receipts to show he had paid rent and
taxes for upwards of two years. Prosecutor examined the
receipts, and being satisfied with the reference the money

- .
was advanced, =llia usual terms, to OiLard. Soon aftir
this transaction it came to prosecutor's knowledge that lon
was connected with persons who obtained money fraudu-
lently from loan societies. On Sunday night he went with
Inspector Brennan to lon's house, and was assaulted by the
wife, who said her husband was not at home, and who
afterwards attempted to destroy some papers essential to
the proof of conspiracy. Prosecutor and the inspector went
into the house, sod found lon, shorn they took into custody.
Mr. Barrow said he was not prepared with further evi-
dence, as the parties had been taken into custody so
recently.
The charge against Cowley and Crow was neat heard,
after which
Mr. Bingham decided upon remanding the prisoners t
Wednesday.

THE STRr.F.T-TUMEILING NUlSANCE.—Yesterday
Mr. Baker held an ingue-t at the Duke of Kent, Cross-
street, St. Gorge-in-the-last, on the body of Robert
Steven. aged 7 years, who raided in Church-road, adjoin-
ing. Deceased was in the habit of tumbling along by the
side of omnibuses, Bre., in the Commercial-road, for the pur-
pose of obtaining money finm the passengers. A few days
ago he complained of a pain in his neck, and on Thursday
afternoon he was taken ill, and died suddenly. He was
previously attended by a medical gentleman, who was of
opinion that the practice of resting on his head and turning
lualbody over so repeatedly had produced an effusion on the
brain.—TheC ironer remarked that thin practice of tumbling
was most dangerous, and that the police ought to interfere
to stop it. Verdict, Visitation of Clod."

RAILWAYS.
THIS DAY.

Two o'CLocw,

There has been a fair amount of movement in tho
railway share market to-day, and during the earlier
part of the day a firm feeling prevailed, a further
advance on yesterday's rates being in many in-
stances established. Great Westerns rose to 83;
Lancashire and Yorkshires, to 56;; North Westerns,
to 1151; and South-Lanterns, to 14,. With the
exception of 'Manchester and Sheffields which re-
main firm, the market is now rather weaker again,
and quotations generally rule the turn lower.
The traffic receipts of the South Eastern ltailway
for the week ending the Bth inst. show an increase
of 1,301/. on those for the corresponding week of last
year, being 12,2701. against 10,060/. in 18.50. The
London and Brighton return, for the first time for
many months, presents a falling off ; the amount is
10,5721. against 10,8811. last year, b..ing a decrease
of 312/.

when she sang the air "Nobles, seigneurs," from the

animated composition, in which M. Julliot has con-
trived to introduce, with great ingenuity and effect, ,
specimens of the national strains of many countries, I
performed on a great variety of instruments. This
piece concludes with a grand triumphal march, de-
scriptive of the memorable day of the inauguration
of the Great Exhibition. The whole is exceedingly
effective. The second part of the concert included a

struments ; a Scottish ballad sung by Miss Dolby ;

This was en appeal against an order of Vice-Chancellor
Knight Brace. Mr. Isaac Dewhirst being indebted to the
Halifax Banking Company and other persons, a deed of
composition was agreed to by the creditors for Ss. in the
pound, payment of which was guaranteed by Wm. Dewhirst.
fhe bank held the notes of a Mr. Capper for a sum of 5401•
of the amount, 19,00 W., due by Mr. Dewhirst, and the main
question was whether they should give up these notes and
take the composition on the whole debt.
His Lordship expressed bia concurrence in the judgment
of his Honour the Vice-Chancellor, and dismissed the appeal
with costs.

the poor rate, which applied to literary and seientifie insti-
tutions under 6 & 7 Vie., cap. 98. It was principally
• depository for curiosities. Many of the privileges of the
institution were confined to its members, and it could not
be said to be generally for the public good, as it was to
consist of certain climes of persons specified in the deed of
constitution, and the library of the institutice was used
exclusively by the members, it being on no occasion open to
the public. It was so a literary or scientific institution,
neither could it be innistained that it was an institution for

HANOVER.

Our Berlin correspondent writes:
The cause, or rather the occasion, of the sud-
den retreat of the late Hanoverian ministry is
said to be this: M. Munchauscu inquired of
the King whether the " new organisation"
should not be carried into execution as soon as
possible. The King gave him no reply; whereupon
the ministry tendered their resignation, which was
at once accepted. The programme of the new mi-
nistry is: "Decided reaction, but by constitutional
means." The chambers are convoked lor the 2nd
December. All the liberal party of Hanover
are struck with consternation. It is evident,
from the very cause of the retreat of the Munchau-
sen cabinet, that the constitution of the country is
to be abolished, and that the Ititterschaft party
must triumph. Great fears are entertained, too,
about the treaty of the 7th September. The Bitters
are known generally to be opposed to its execu-
tion, and the Austrian influence is said again to be
ascendant in the Hanoverian court. The King of
Prussia is at present there, under the pretext of
being present at the obsequies of the late king ;
but his visit no doubt has a political motive, and he
wiU of course make every effort to bring the treaty
of September into favour with the new King.

HANOVER, Nov. 24.
