CAPE OF GOOD HOPS.
By the renew, Kfigour, which arrived on Monday
from the Cape of Good Hupe, letters have been
received in town from that colony to the 17th of
October. The Venus left St. Helens on the 30th
of October, and on her passage from that island to
Falmouth, on the Sd of December, spoke the Ada-
mant, homeward bound from Calcutta, in lat. 34.1
6 long. 34. 43. all well. The fidlowing is an ex-
tract of a letter brought by the rem, dated Cape
Town, October 16.:—" Our last accounts from our
settlement at Graham's Town continue to be of a
very unsatisfactory kind. The settlers are very dis-
contented with their situation, and such as have
been able to raise the means and obtain the Gower-
hoes permissions, are sapid.y quitting the place,—
ha the environs of that settlement the Caffres have
lately made some dangerous incursions, and several
of the settlers litho had taken up their habitations
in the immediate vicinity, had, it was reputed,
•ddlon victims to the savages ; this also had been
the case wiih slime individual who had imprudently
ventured In the woods, fur the purpose of hunting,
and who have nut since been heard of, but, it was
feared had been murdered, as traces of a party of
Caffres having been in the direction of their route,
were discovered by a potty who were sent in pure
suit of the absentees. To add to the inconveni-
ences of those settle., residing in the outskirts of
Graham's Town, billailisies are said to. have taken
place between terse/ the Caffree tribes, in their
neighbourhood, add several cattle have been carried
off at various times by the marauding parties of the
combatants, in their pursuit of each other through
or near to the European settlements. Two muskets
had also been stolen from the house of tole Al'Guire,
whose residence was un the borders of the Hotten-
tot country. Some of the settlers, however, on
this side of Graham's Town, had succeeded in ma-
nuring, and, in some measure cultivating, several
plots of the ground there which had hitherto defied
all tq,,ricultural ingenuity and industry; and there
was every prospect of a considerabl? further portion
being brought fit for cultivation by the next season,
although the impregnation of saltpetre in tb 2. ground
is very strong, and exceedingly difficult to get rid
of. All hope of civilizing the Cuffres is now gives
over; the natural feature of the people is ferocity,
and they do not possess any of that uncultivated
shrewdness which has been so much observed in
many tribes and nations of savages ; they are very
cruel, and without any ideas of society, or any ap-
parent 'wish to know more than thSir rude state of
life has already taught them and our settlers have
now given over all thought of attempting to obtain
their frin:.ship, and are only anzioes to guard theta-
slyer against the consequences of their animosity.
The tribe of Kia Kin; is, however, some exception.
to this rule. This chief; ever since he has obtained
his authority, has been very anxious to be upon
sociable and intimate terms with the English, and
has rendered us all the assistance in his power to
check the atrocious inroads and daring depredations
of the natC.ves • and, through his means, frequently
droves of cattle, belonging to settlers, which would
otherwise be inevitably lust, have been reeovered.—
In return for these favoi.es he has received consider-
able presents from the Governor, as well as from
some of our principal settlers; but although this
tribe is somewhat sociable, no hope is entertained
that any considerable intercourse will ever be car-
ried on between the European settlers and the na-
tives. I should here mention the portion of country
