THE CAPE MAIL.

PLYMOUTH, OCT. 29.

The Royal Mail steamship Norman arrived here
this afternoon with the above mail and 35 passen-
gers. She left the Cape on the 22d ult., St. Helena
on the Ist, and Ascension on the sth inst. She was

lency also objected to introducing Caffres from
beyond the border.

cruise on the Slave Coast, dm ing which she had
captured 26 slave dhows, and liberated a great
number of captives. She also captured the Persian
Gulf, a pirate vessel, which fired upon her boats in
Mombas harbour, wounding Lieut. Fellowes and
two men.
