CONCLUSION OF THE KAFIR
WAR.

By the ship Grecian, which left the Cape of Good
Hope on the 18th December, intelligence has been
received at Bombay that, by a judicious arrangement
of the troops by Sir H. Pottinger, the whole of the
Kafir chiefs, with their wives and families, had been
made prisoners, and that the war was at an
end. Beyond the bare announcement of the above
fact, which we believe may be fully relied on, we
have been unable to learn anything, but it is probable
that by next issue further particulars will reach us.
Well may the Bombay army feel proud of such a
man as Sir H. Pottinger, who has ttus brought a
second war to a successful termination."—Bombay
