•' The Garrick is ashore about twenty miles north of
Sandy Hook. The third mate has reached this city this

doubt be got off with little damage. All on board are
safe, and the storm has now cleared up. Ship not bilged.

We have received Cape of Good Hope Papers to the
29th of November.-
The following is an extract from the Graham's Journal
of Nov. 19 :--
'1 So many accounts hate reached us from Natal, and
from the country to the west of the Druakberg, purport-
ing that a system of domestic slavery amongst the emi-
grants is becoming very general, that it would be absurd to
affect to believe that they are altogether baseless. It is
affirmed that a traffic irt native children is a matter of every
day occurrence, and that the authorities, if they do not
openly countenance it, take no measures to suppress it, or
to punish those who are engaged in such nefarious deal-
ings. We • are assured that amongst the emigrants, the
sale of native servants take. place under the very eye of the
Government. It behoves•the emigrants to look carefully
to themselves in this matter.
SMALL Pox.—We are rquested to state, for the infor-
mation of the public, that the rumour of small pox having
aga n appeared in Cape Town is unfounded.
From the Bombay. Papers received this morning, it is

dart had been released from confinement by the King, who
had ordered him to drill a battalion of infantry ; he was
then engaged in enrolling them.

THE TENTH OF FEBRUARY.—This is a day
of peculiarly auspicious character, one of those which the
ancients delighted to mark with " a white atone"—a dies
alba—a happy day 1 On the tenth of February of the
past year our young and beloved Sovereign bestowed her
hand and heart on the man of her choice, and formed an
alliance rarely accomplished on a Throne—one of affection
and love. On the same day in the present year, the
youthful and Royal pair appear at the altar to consecrate,
by the most hallowed and interesting of ceremonies, the
infant pledge of their union and their affection. The
felicitous event will of course be celebrated by every de-
monstration of joy—balls, parties, and fetes will he the
order of the day, and among the most favourite requisites
for the Toilet the indispensable articles produced by
Messrs. Rowland, their unrivalled Kalydor for the skin
and face, their invaluable Macassar Oil
.for the hair, and
their equally celebrated Odonto for the teeth and gums,
cannot fail to be in extensive requisition.
BENGAL.—CHOLERA AT DACCA.—The fol-
lowing is an extract of a letter from Dacca, dated sth
December, 1840:—" Cholera is raging with the greatest
violence just now in this city and its environs, and the
number of deaths cannot be less than fifty daily. A dis-
pensary in this city, under the management of one of the
students of the Medical College, who have passed exami-
, nation, would be a great desideratum."—Hurharu, Dec. 9.
NUPTIAL FESTIVITIES.—Grand entertain-
ments were given by Lord Sudeley, on the marriage ol
the Hon. Henry Hanbury Tracy with the Hon. Miss Shir.
ley, sister of Viscount Tamworth, both on his estates in
Gloucestershire and Montgomeryshire. At Gregynog
hall, in the latter county, the festivities lasted several days
and did not terminate until Friday : the rejoicings of th,
tenantry being kept up at Newton and the neighhhurim',
villages, Kith good Welsh cheer—feasting, dancing, and
the charming minstrelsy of that ancient province. ,
