LATEST FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE,

THE CAFFRE WAR

Parliament-street was crowded with persons yesterday
afternoon, and the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert
Peel were both greeted with the most enthusiAstie cheer-

ing on their respective arrival at the Houses of Parliament

LAST mcnrs PARLIAMENT.

(From the New York Courier and Enquirer. )
We are indebted to Captain 'Waterman, of the Ship
Natchez, who strived yesterday, for Cape Town papers to
the 30th April.
We learn from them that hostilities have actually com-
menced between the authorities and the natives, upon the
frontier. On the 15:h of April a division of troops
marched towards Brown's-hill, where there is a missiona-
ry station or village, situated in front of the gorges of the
Atnatola Mountains, into the ravines of which it was un-
derstood the Caffres had withdrawn. Here the troops
encamped far the night.

In the morning the troops entered the gorges, and en-
countered the enemy, which at times showed a force of
2,000 men, all armed with muskets. The Caffres were
repulsed wherever they could be met, and the troops took
1,800 head of cattle and encamped. In the afternoon
they were attacked by bodies of the Caffres. and during
the night were surrounded on all sides. Major Gibson,
the Commander, sent for a reinforcement to Colonel
Somerset, who proceeded with 200 infantry, one gun, and
some riflemen, to his support.
Major Gibson early the next day, without awaiting the
reinforcement, moved upon the river, with only an ad-
vance and rear-guard, leaving the waggons, &c., between,
unprotected. They were immediately attacked, and the
line cut in two by the Caffres, who then attacked the
rear guard upon all sides, compelling Major Gibson to re-
treat to Burn's-hill. The advanced guard crossed the
river, and both divisions were then united and being
joined by Colonel Somerset, encamped on the bank of the
Chumie.

HOUSE OF COMMONS

The house never presented such a thronged appearance.
At twenty minutes past three Sir Robert Feel entered
the house with an anxious air, and proceeded to deliver
his statement. After stating that in consequence of the
house having refused to give to the government those
powers which were deemed necessary for the protection of
life in Ireland, her Majesty's servants had come to a
unanimous resolution, and adopted without hesitation, to
tender their resignation, he acknowledged with gratitude
the many occasions on which the house bad rendered their
cordial support, and he would say nothing which could
by possibility provoke any controversy. Her Majesty had
been pleased to accept the resignation, and he assured the
house that he did not propose his late commercial mea-
sures without foreseeing the great probability, whether
those measures succeeded or not, of the dissolution of the
government. The right hon. gentleman then made the
following statement :—" Sir, I rather rejoice that her Ma-
jesty's Government has been relieved from any doubt, by
the early decision of this house, as to the course which it
was their duty to pursue, for I do not hesitate to say that
I would not, even if the late vote had been in our favour
—I would not, even then, have consented to hold office
by the sufferance or permission of any party—(loud
cheers)—believing, as I do. that ;t is for the public interest
that a government remaining in power should be enabled
to give practical effect to the measures which they may
believe it necessary to introduce for the public good ; and
and I do not think that, in a position in which her
Majesty's Government was placed by the withdrawal—
perhaps the natural withdrawal—of the confidence of many
_of those who had hitherto supported them—l do not
think it improbable that, even if that vote had been in
our favour, her Majesty's Government would be enabled,
with credit to themselves or with advantage to the inte-
rests of the country, to continue in the administration of
public affairs. (Great ch ering.) We therefore felt it
our duty to advise her Majesty to accept our resignations
without adopting that alternative which might have been
adopted, namely, recommending to the Crown to exercise
its prerogative and to dissolve the present Parliament.
We preferred the immediate tendering of our resignations
to the adoption of that course. Sir, I do not hesitate to
say, speaking with that frankness which I am sure can
offend no one, that if her Majesty's Government had
failed in carrying through Parliament, in all their inte-
grity, those measures of commercial policy, which it was

On the l 8 h, while retiring down the river, they were
attacked by 3,000 Caffres, but succeeded in crossing, with
a loss of 1 officer and 2 men killed and 3 wounded. Their
whole loss was 11 killed and 14 wounded. The loss of tfie
Caffres is not stated. Government is taking steps to call
out the whole force of the ca7alry, to put down the robber
tribes by which they are surrounded. Martial law was
proclaimed by the Governor on the 21st of April. At
Post Victoria, on the 12th, a party of dragoons pursued a
body of Caffres, numbering 1,500, and upon overtaking,

attacked them. They were, however, forced to retreat,
though the Caffres are said to have many slain, while the
troops lost but one.
A considerable body of Caffres had also attacked the de-
fended position, the Wesleyan chapel, at CoHingham, but
wizbout success. They were also seen in considerable
force at various points on the frontier. They also attacked
Drift Post, and succeeded in carrying off 89 head of cattle.
Lieutenant O'Rielly, on the 19th, with 8J men, met and
engaged a large body of Caffres, and entirely routed them

without serious loss on his own part. About 50 Caffres,
nn the night of the 27th, attacked the cattle krall near
Graham's Town, but was driven off by nine Englishmen.
Large numbers of cattle, at other places, had been car-
ried off.

liament ; but there was nn

prerogative for the purpose of enabling the government to
pass an inferior measure, for, he felt strongly that the

from the government having introduced the Coercion

Bill, that their opinions with reference to Ireland had un-
dergone any change; "speaking of myself," said he, "I
do not hesitate to say that there ought to be established is
Ireland, compleee equality (loud cheers,) in municipal and
political institutions. (Cheers.) I say complete equa-

sent political and religious aspect of the country. (Hear,
hear.) It may not be possible to carry out complete no-

litical and religious equality according to the letter of the
terms, but it may be doe according to the spirit. But I
speak of the spirit and not of the letter, in regard to the
franchise, in regard to the municipal rights, and in regard
to other great questions relating to Ireland. (Cheers.)
There is a strong desire in the minds of many that the
"e of Ireland should be placed in possession of the
political and religious rights as those of Enetand

and Scotland, and I admit -the correctness or the
principle. Not only do I admit the justice ofEthe prin-
ciple. but I am of opinion that a complete assimilation

In an engagement at Block Drift on the 19th, it is
stated that 200 Caffres were killed ; the Engliel lost 6
killed and 4 wounded; among the latter was Lieutenant
Cochrane, who could not recover. Up to the date of the
latest intelligence, no further attacks had been made, but
the Caffres had been seen in bodies of 200 in different
places, and had succeeded frequently in carrying off cattle.
The colony seems to be seriously threatened by them, and

ous priviliges, should not be defeated by any jealousy and
suspicion on our -part. .With regard to any question
involving the rights and privileges of the people of Ire-
land, I say distinc:ly that there ought not to be a
different rule applied to Ireland to that which is applied to
the people of this country. (Cheers.) It is impossible
for me to say that there should be submitted with regard
to Ireland a different rule of action to that which is ap-
plied to Englane.. (Cheers.) Regarding the Executive

he powers of the
Crown should not be exercised so as to occasion any real
ground of complaint in regard to religious distinctions. It
may be that we have given offence in sonic instance's in
availing ourselves of the opportunity of appointing Roman
Catholics to office. It may be said that we should have
taken different means to carry out our policy ; but to that
I will answer, that I hold it to he the best and cisest po-
licy to carry on the affairs of Government without refe-
rence to any differences on religious questions, and that it
should make its appointments accordingly. (Cheeis.)
With regard to the spirit in which legislation must be di-
rected, I must say, for one, I am prepared to co-operate
with those who feel that the present social condition of
the people of Ireland in respect to the tenure of land, and
the relations of landlord and tenant, and are anxious to
remedy the existing state of things. (Hear, hear.) It
may be impossible by legislative euactments to apply an
immediate remedy to the state of things which
now exists ; but even if the benefit to be derived
from legislation be extremely remote, set if the
benefit be of a permanent character, then I shall
feel it to be my duty to support them. (Hear, hear.)
S'r, I have reason to believe the noble lord, the member
for the City of London, hes been commanded by her Ma-
jesty to repair to her Majesty's presence for the purpose
of hearing her Majesty's commands upon the subject of
forming that government. (Hear, hear.) Sir, I presume
that the general principle upon which the government to
be formed by the noble lord, will—that is as far as its
commercial policy is concerned—be to continue the appli-
cation of those princieles, which tend to give us a clear
and unrestricted intercourse with other c, ut tries." The
right hon. baronet having finished his observations on the
policy which had been pursued by his government, in the
course of which he stated that it was the last time he
should ever address the house as a minister of the crown,
sat down amidst loud cheering. The right hon. baronet
immediately afterwards rose and said he had received a
communication from Lord Juhn Russell, and he hoped
that, agreeing with the wishes of the noble lord, the house

would agree with the motion he was about to make, and
which was that the house, at its rising, do adjourn to
Friday next.
Lord PALMERSTON rose, and was left speaking.

11013:SE OF LORDS.
RESIGNATION OF MINISTERS.
The Duke of WELLINGTON-1 have to announce to
your Lordships, that her Majesty's servants have tendered
to her Majesty their resignation of the offices which they
have held in her Majesty's service. In consequence of
that, her Majesty has sent for a Noble Lord, with a view
to form an early administration of the the Government
of this country, As the affairs of this country are now,
my Lords, this information will probably induce your
Lordships to think that it will be desirable to suspend
the discussion of those measures which are likely to be-
come measures of controversy in this House until those
who have the honour of being her Majesty's servants.,
sh all have an opportunity of forming their arrangements,
and shall be able to come down to this House to tiausact
the public business. The Noble Duke then suggested
that the house should nor adjcnarn,-- but uc...ino its sir
tings from day to day, for the purposeof passing t lre short
Sugar Bill, for the continuation of the sugar duties fur a
month.

This was immediately agreed to, and several noble lords
signified their readiness to postpone motions which they
had on the paper. The house then broke up.

WEST LANCASHIRE RAILWAY.
The committee on this railway decided yesterday that
that the preamble was not proved. Amongst the wit-
nesses were Mr. Thomas Sands and Dr. Duncan, of this
town. The latter stated that he had made the medical
stati,tics of Liverpool his study for several years, and
considered that as the railway .vould lead to the erection
of villas about Crosby, the air of which was most salubri-
ous, it would be extremely desirable fur the people of
Liverpool.

ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.—OPENING OF TES NEW
CONCERT-ROOM.-lAst night, a new attraction was given
to these delightful gardens. by the opening of a new
concert-room, and the engagement of the celebrated
vocalist, Mr. Henry Russell. The concert-room is a
spacious building, admirably arranged, and capable of
holding about three thousand persons. At one end is a
stage and proscenium, and at the other a gallery ; and by
the skill of the builder the room is so contrived that the
singing can be heard both by those promenading the gar-
dens outside. and by the audience within. Of Mr.
Russell's singing we need not speak here, further than to
state that it was of the excellent quality for which this
truly orizinal vocalist is d:stinguished, and that the whole
went off with the greatest satisfaction. Messrs. Atkins on
this, al on every portion of their management, which is
moat liberal, deserve the warmest support of the public.
Mr. Russell will appear again next on Wednesday and
Friday. On Monday next, Professor Keller, who has
been strengthening his extraordinary corps of" living
statuary" on the continent, will make his first appearance
in Liverpool at these gardens, and his at tractive exhibition

will be continued the following Wednesday and Friday
A QUESTION OF PRECEDENCE.—There is adifficulty,w
understand,
.in determining which of the law-office
the Corporation should have the precedence in their pre-
sentation to Royalty, during the visit. A legal friend sag-
at4,ts that, as a Judge in equity is a superior person to a
Town Clerk or a Recorder, the Chairman of the Court of
Requests is entitled to the hut consideration.

THE RIVER PLATE.—By foreign vessel to the Channel
we have letters two days later from Monte Video, namely,
to the 22nd of April. The monetary difficulties of the
Government, occasioned by the arrival of Riveira, had
been removed. Riveira, it was rumoured, wes about to
proceed up the Uruguay to Salta, with a few hundred
men, and had applied to the English and French naval
commanders for the means of transporting his troops, and
also for a steamer to be placed at his disposal, in which, it
was understood, they had acquiesced.
