THE CAPE MAIL.

PLYMOUTH, Nov, 21.

The Union Company's steamship Roman arrived
off Plymouth et 2 o'clock this morning with the
above mail and 30 passengers. She left the Cape
on the 21st ult.; St. Helena, on the 29th; and As-
cension on the 2d November.

It was not likely that anything further would be
done at the Cape in the removal of Parliament ques-
tion until the election of the members of the Legis-
lative Council in December or January, and of the
Assembly in February.

The Lymberg Railway will be completed by the
end of the year.
The weather continued remarkably favourable
for agriculture, and produce of all kinds was abun-
dant and cheap.
Monetary and commercial affairs were dull, but
a steady though limited amount of business was
done.

There was no material alteration in the price of
Eastern province wools, but extensive purchases
had been made in execution of orders for the
North American States. Large shipments had gone
forward.

Owing to some recent unpleasaut,disclosures the
banks had been cautious in discouniing.
Excepting the usual complaints of cattle stealing
by the natives on the frontier, all was quiet with
the colonists.

The British Kaffrarians continued opposed to

annexation.

The movement in the Frei State in favour of

re•annexation was extending.

FRANCE.
PARIS, Nov. 21.

The electors of the ninth circumscription of the
Cote d'Or are summoned to meet for the election of
members upon the 13th and 14th December.
The specie held by the Bank of France has risen
to 203 million francs in consequence of the purchase
of specie to the amount of ten millions. The Coun-
cil of the Bank has observed that during the last
eight days the bills presented for discount have been
of a more satisfactory character. They are of
shorter date, and appertain to real commerce, and
not to bullion dealers, as was previously the case.
The Bank, therefore, anticipates an improvement i❑
the state of affairs if no new incident arise.

The reply of Russia to the Emperor Napoleon's
invitation is expected here in three or four days.
Some uneasiness prevails here relative to the possi-
bility of a conflict upon the Schleswig-Holstein
question.

SPAIN.

The Correspondencia of Madrid contains the fol-
lowing:—" Tte conflict in Santo Domingo has be-
come a war of races. The negroes commit the
most atrocious cruelties on any whites that fall into
their hands, and burn the towns into which they
penetrate, as if they wished to reduce themselves
to a savage state. In consequence of that sys-
tem of devastation, the Spanish troops are not
only fignting against an enemy which flies before
them, but are also deprived of shelter and sub-
sistence. The insurrection is spreading in all the
districts, with the exception of the province where
General Santana has his relatives, his friends, and
property. The General, with several battalions of
Spaniards,under the orders of Gen. Gondara, is pro-
tecting the capital, and has proved sufficiently strong
to resist and to attack the enemy in case of need. The
arrival of the new Captain-General Vargrs has re-
tored confidence, and the feeling of the troops is still
good. Many families have arrived at Porto Rico
from Santo Domingo, and among others that of the
Captain-General Rivero. In the serious crisis
through which Santo Domingo is now passing, 1
believe that the best thing to be done is to state the
facts as they really, and the more so that nothing
is to be feared either for the honour of the Spanish
arms or for the safety of the Spaniards there, the
army being supported by a strong fleet."
