Cain OF GOOD HOPS.

The following is an extract of i letter from an of.
ficer at the Cape of Good Hope:—" Letters have
'been received tram Graham's Town, from which it
is apparent that the good effect from the late regula-
tiffilt for the protection of colonial property
on the
frontiers begin to manifest themselves. It seems that
on the 28th of last month (April) some of HABA.N49II
people penetrated into the colony, and succeeded in
surprising nineteen head of cattle belonging to some
Hottentots. Information was immediately conveyed
to Graham's Town of the depredation, when Major
!anew, without loss of time, dispatched Lieutenant
Betray Veateen, of the 83d Regiment, with 100
men, in pursuit of the fugitives. They were easily
traced. and it appeers had returned into the Caffre
land by Trumpeter's Drift. finsnwn is one of the
Cafre Chiefs who did not attend the conference w4h
Excerletcy the Governor, on the Kat River.—
Lieutenant Vestige pursued the stolen cattle by the
traces to has first kraals, and then demanded restitu.

fore seised an equal number of.Caffte cattle to that
stolen, and acqeeinted the Chief with the kraal that
his object was nal/ to take back what had been pre-
vionsiy purloined ; be would wait there till the next
morning, Ai give time to consider the necessity and
propriety of restitution. Upon day dawning it was
Itmnd that, instead of giving up the stolen cattle, the
Cairns were preparing to assail his party, and to re-
take tin 19 oxen he had possessed himself of. Lieu-

was not annoyed by the-Ceffres until he came to the
bead of the Little Rat Ri*r, "when supposing the
situation favourable to their object, they marched
urn his pasty from the 'surrounding hills, in greet
numbers, making horrible shouts, and throwing their

formed his party, commenced firing with such egret
that 15 Caffrei were killed, and many more wounded,
the remainder immediately dispersed, and the party
returned to Graham's Town, when the 19 head ut

The Paris Papers of Sunday arrived last night.
and in our preceding columns we have given extracts
from them. The Prevoral Court at Lyons was to
commence on the 15th instant, the trial of the indi-
viduals concerned in the conspiracy against the exist-
ing. Government. The French Funds are beginning
to recover from their depression. On Saturday the
5 per cents. were at 64f. 85 e.
The Paris Papers of Monday also arrived at a late
boar to-day. The most important article of intelli-
gence they contain, is the report of the Revolution at
Algiers, which we have given in another part of our
Paper. The following are other extracts s

PARIS, oqrossat is.
Lieutenant-General Baron Ledru Desessart has
been appointed to succeed General Cannel, at Lyons.

General Cannel has arrived in Paris.

It is said that the Court of Assizes at Rouen bas
declared itself incompetent to judge in the affair of
the individual (the sham Dauphin) who calls him-
self Charles of Navarre.

The Ports which the Duke of Angouleate will
visit, is the course of his oav4l tour, are Dieppe,
Havre, Rouen, Cherbourg, Saint gal°, Renner.
Lutes, Rochelle, and Rpchfort, whence he will re.
tom to the capital. .

Private Letters from Rhodes state, that Madame
Manson is still as inexplicable as, ever. Remarkable
words are continually escaping from ter, but her
suppraisions are 180111 expressive than her confessions.
The child, Madeleine &neat, has recognised Ma=
dame Manson as the lady itho was shut up in the
closet.
