!country is included in B • Barcena, there vio- r
lence must be repressed-crimes detected and
punished, and a sufficient force stationed to crush in
re
the bud the least rising symptom of disaffection.
Time will do the rest. The common Kaffir' will soon
feel the favourable difference between British rule
and the cruel despotism of Kaffir chieftainship, and a
British interest will spring up amongst them which
cannot fail to operate favourably to the cause of civi-
lization and good order on the minds of their lees for-
tunate c'.:antrymen over the British border."
We extract the following from the same journal No
It is said, that in inut of the late captures of cattle by
the troops the Kaffir' did not fire a shot ; they merely at
tempted to drive off the cattle. Still the enemy had
not been chastised, or punished, or humbled. But
they are sharp-sighted enough to perceive, although
we are no match for them in the art of cattle-
lifting, yet that a prolonged contest with the
colony would be a dieagreee?.de and harming, if not a
ruineus thing to them. 'rimy have lost all hope of driving
us into the sea. But thy have got the cattle, and of course
they have gained the victory. It is, however, hoped that
even in this respect they will vet be taught a lesson, Um 'bene-
ficial effects of which will be lasting; and that the legitimate
objects of the expedition scram the Kei, about to be under-
taken by the divotinn under Colonel Somerset, will not be
baffled by the superior eunaing of the enem, or obstructed
or diverted Item their proper ent by fryuitless negotia-
tion.
We quote from the Advertiser, which says, in re-
ference to a late capture of cattle from the Gaika
tribes,—
Amongst the 1,600 or 1,600 head of cattle taken on this
occasion, it was found that tome, not having been colonial,
belonged to certain Kaffir* already received as British sub-
jects, and registered as such by Mr. Commissioner Calder-
wood, and they were accordingly restored to their lawful
owners. The governor was under no obligation to do this,
but it has had an excellent effect in hastening the rubmis •
sion of the waverer,. It ia now manifest to all that the
war has become a toning game with the Kaffirs, and that
the alternative of submission has everything in its favour.
Received the following from Fortßeaufort, dated 18th Dec. :
" Hike Mr. Calderwood very moth, and think that no fitter
penes weld have tem Mai an ear Ittwasier to fill the situa-
tion he has been appointed to. He is straightforward, de-
chive, and firm. So I hope no more opposition or disapproval
will be evinced on account of his having been a missionary.
I do not like the intended disposal of the ceded
territory, it being occupied almost exclusively by coloured
people. This plan has been recommended to the governer,
and fears are entertained that the plan will be followed. I
see three strong reasons for objecting to it. First, becalm
five five or six thousand coloured men, placed on the ceded
territory, may, in a few years, become most dangerous
to the colony, and may, by combining with the Kaffir,,
overthrow and lay waste our frontier districts. Secondly,
it will deprive the colony, and especially the eastern
province, of servants ; and thirdly, because the greatest por-
tion of the ceded territory should be sold in order to com-
pensate the colonists for their heavy losses in the war. Why
not reserve for a time half the ceded territory ? It would
sell well by and by."
A latter from the same place, dated 15th Dec., statee
" Affairs are as they were. Mamma has given up about
40 guns and some horses, a-.d would do more, but
his people have been dispersed by the recent attacks
made on them, and many have gone amongst those
of the so-called friendly chief Umtikaka. Dr. Cotton,
principal medical officer of the colony, accompanied by Dr.
Campbell, 73rd Regiment, who arrived a few days ago from
Monte Video. may be daily expected on the frontal. A
gentleman, lately arrived from the N.E. boundary, repre-
sents a portion of Moeheeh's territory as being in an unsettled
state, in consequence of disagreements between the emigrant,
and natives. These accounts are not clear or full. Bat it
seems that the same causes are in operation in
Mosheeh's country, that produced the disorders in Griqunland
and compelled the interference of the government. Num-
bers of the emigrants are said to have been unjustly expelled
from their habitations, after having been encouraged to ex-
pend much time and labour in improvements. The govern-
ment will probably be obliged before long to step in between
the disputants.
Letters have been received from Col. Somerset's division
to the 20th Dec., on which day the march was commenced
towards the Kei, to settle matters with Pato and Krei.
We understand that " if the general's measures are
well carried nut, all must end right." Colonel Johnston
and Captain Hogg's men, are said to be on the march to
meet Colonel Somerset at the Kei. Kobus Congo (Pate's
brother), sent lb a message, as if c 'ming from Pato,
for peace, which was forwarded to the governor ; but Woe
an answer was received, it was discovered that the ressetwee
had come from Kobus, end not from Pate, they ware them-
fors instantly sent back with a message from the dipleensde
agent, Captain Maclean,who will accompany the eallfiaa,
that no more messages would be received immt in& se
were sent specially by Pet* himself.
Letters from headquarters are to the 21st. They state
that the commander-in-chief was about to join Colonel
Somerset's division.
Intelligence has been received that Saodilla has submitted,
and been enrolled as a British subject. Ile has brought
in with him 100 head of cattle.—The Kaffir chief Kano, it
is stated, will occupy the country that formerly. belonged to
Tola.—Some Kaffir spoors were lately seen going into the
colony by Jager, Drift, where no party is now stationed. '
A span of oxen were lately missed on that neighbourhood,
but were all found with the exception of one, the remains of
which only were discovered. and which is supposed to have
been slaughtered by the Kaffir,.
News has been received that tmhala, with several hun-
dred followers, and a like number of cattle, has surrendered
himself to Col. Somerset, and has beenregistered as a British
subject —We understand that the plan of a town at Block
Drift has been formed, and that some of the streets have
already been laid out by the engineers. From this post to
the sea it is supposed his excellency will establish a line of
forts communicating with each other, and supported by com-
munities of natives established in convenient localities.
We learn from Col. Somenet'scamp, Buffalo River, under
data of 14th inst., that " • patrol of 80 Cape corps started
last night, in commode( Capt. Napier, but where they have
gone to we cannot ascertain. The colonel is also Rolm ewe
time to-day with some Cane corps and Capt. lengs's
mounted men. I suppose this move is preparatory to
general decampment. Capt. Napier has taken 400 heed at
cattle."
A letter from the same place, dated the 16th inst.. says:
" There has been'another patrol out, and they have killed five
Kaffir., taken 250 head of cattle, and two prisoners. The
latter say Kreili and Pato have bad a hard fight; that the
former won't let the latter into his country, and has takes
many of his cattle, which he intends delivering up to the
governor."
The news from Cape Town is unimportant Pro-
-^rsitione were before the Legislative Council for build-
ing a harbour of refuge, and making a revision in the
scale of tonnage dues. No alteration had taken place
in the rate of exchange upon London, Treasury bills
continuing to be quoted at par.
