CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

We have received intelligence from the Cape of Good
Hope to the 7th of April, and from Ascension to the
28th of the same month. From the frontiers of the
former the last news is, that Sir H. Pottinger and Sir
George Berkeley were at Fort Peddie, Sir G. Berkeley
preparing for a forward move. The mouth of the
Buffalo River was to be converted into a port, and an
officer of engineers had been appointed to trace out
there a field work. A rumour was afloat that Pato (the
most refractory of the Kafir chiefs) had tendered his sub-
mission, but that it could only be accepted on his uncon-
ditional surrender. Should this take place the war is at
an end. One wing of the 9th Light Infantry, under
Lieut.-Colonel Slade, had arrived at Cape Town from the
frontier; the remainder of the regiment, under Major
Eld, was waiting the " turn of events," at Algoa Bay.

' The Governor of the Bahamas, whose arrival on
leave of absence was erroneously reported some time
since, was among the passengers of the Washington
Sje amer, which left New York on the Ist instant.
Ills Excellency received, previous to his departure from
Nassau, addresses of the
most complimentary description
from the three branches of the colonial legislature, the
Clergy, friendly
societies,
s,and other bodies, testifying to
effects the beneficial
of his Excellency's administration
for the past three years, and to the attachment and re-
