few years ago. it will be recolected that ship loads
young females were sent to the Cape, under the
auspices of goodly ladies here and consigned to the
supervision of the Colonial Bishop there. These
females became known as the "Bishop's Ladies, -
and his charitable chapains tried in vain to find
employment for them. Some did what they
would have done had they never left England

enough, married with Moslem labourers and farm

question of those who have thus gone over, to the
questioners of their conduct. "Did ever you see

The FRENCH MINISTER on THE RIGHT OF SEARCH.
The Washington correspondent of the New York
Times says:
have the highest authority for saying that the
reported conversation of NJ. de Sartges with the
Hon. MIR. s., of New York, and another gentle
man well known in Washington, ON the subject of
the Right of Search has been seriously misunder-
stood and misstated. The conversation was purely
Informal, and the observations of NJ. de Sartiges
were simply to this effect, that the war would
doubtless open a wider field for American shippipg
in the Mediterranean, but that our shipmasters 5
must be careful not to forget that the doctrine now
established, and principally in consequence of the
determination of France, that the ''neutral fac
shall cover the goods" does not at all invalidate
the necessary war-privilege of the searching f r
contraband of war. Our vessels NAV carry ali sorts
of cargoes to the Adriatc, but they must not risk
concealing munitions of war. These remarks were
the merest matter of course; the really important
bearing OF the French Minister'S language being
the intimation which it threw out of the now COM
Peted good understanding between the great mar
ltime Powers on the general question of the Right
OF search; In fact NJ. de Sartiges' last diplomat
&c act at Washington, as | have reason to believe,
was the conclusion of negotiations which have re-
suited In an entire acquiescence by England in the
french and American views of this matter, France
and the United States having occupied one ground
upon the question from the first.

INTERESTING FROM THE RIVER PLArE-By the way
| OF southampton, we receive files of Journals
| from Brazil and the River Plate to the sth ult.
| Don Lamar, late the Uruguayan Minister at the
Court of Brazil, accompanied by n large staff was
about to proceed to Europe for the purpose of
! noting immigration into the Banda Oriental, and
! otherwise advancing the commercial interests of
the Republic, by extending the relations with the
| Old w orld through COnsus and mercantile agents.
1t is the intention of NJ. Lamar to visit Paris Ma.
drid, Rome, &C., so as to effect conventions with
this object.
The accounts from the Uruguay describe the
prosperity of the country as very great and con-
tinually increasing. The disturbances in Europe
had immensely augmented the influx of foreigners
especially of Italians. The price of land was being
greatly enhanced, and the prospects of peace being
long preserved element of serious agitation be-
ing at present visible seem to have inspired the
Government and the population with the determi-
nation at length to make the most of the great
natural resources of the best portion of the Plate

that vast river and its affluents The Lamar Mis-
sion is understood to be appointed on scale of
great liberality.

that it would be impossible to convict them of

After the departure of the American Commission
the Collector of the Customs had received orders
from the Executive to give in a report the guam
tity and proximate value of the goods introduced
into Paraguay by the American Navigation Com
pany. This report is published in a late number
OF the Semandrio, and makes the amount ridicu-
lousy small, the articles consisting chiefly of
simple agricultural Implements with remark
that goods OF much greater value may have been
smuggled, of which the Custom-house had no cog
nizance.

upon the claim of the Company, which has vet to

SAkDlNlAN REPORTS OF THE LATE EN-
GAGEMENTS
The King of Sardinia has issued the following
order OF the day, dated from his head d-uuarters at
Alessandria, MAY 5:
On the Sd and 4th, the enemy attempted to pass
the 70, opposite Frassinetto and Valenza. The
troops OF the 18th Regiment, and the Sth Battalion
OF Bersageri, the lst l7th and 18th Batteries in
trusted with the defence of that position stood the
enemy's fire with intrepdty and frustated his at
tempt. His Majesty the King highly satisfied with
the firm and prasewOrthy behaviour displayed by
these troops, and with the intelligent manner in
which they were commanded by their chiefs, Col
onel Bozzoli, Major Volpeandi, and Captains
Sobrero Dho, and Roberti, has given orders to the
undersigned chief of the staff to inform all the corps
OF the army thereofby the present order of the
day. his Majesty being convinced that this first result
VIII be followed by other greater ones, which will
increase the reputation and glory of the Piedmon-
teSe army.
By order of his Majesty
Lieut. General of the Staff, DELLA RoccA
The Piedrnontese Gazette publishes short account
OF the cannonade at Vaenza on the 4th stating the
NUMBER OF wounded at 10, besides Captain Roberti
and one man killed. The latter CORPORAL of Ber-
sagieri, (or rifemen,) named Albini being mortal
ly wounded, nevertheless crawled to a hillock in
order to have one shot more at the enemy. The
operations OF the enemy near Frassinetto are
ohclally described follows
After some insignificant encounters of cavalry
during the first days of the war; and in which our
troops retarded the enemy's march, we have now
10 mention facts OF greater Importance. On the Sd
OF May, about twenty minutes past 4 P. NJ the enc
my in considerable force reconnotered the left bank
OF the 20, opposite Frassnetto, with an ATTEMPT to
cross over to the right bank. The enemy's forces
were drawn up near Terranova protected by the
dam OF the river, whence they opened a heavy fire
OF musketry and rockets against our advanced
posts The troops of the seventeenth regiment
with the nth battery, which were stationed there
LOT the defence of that point, bore the enemy's fire
with intrepidity
Maior-Gene Chev. Ciadni, hearing the can
nonade, fastened out of Casae with the fifteenth
regiment OF infantry, two squadroons of the Mon
ierrato light cavalry, and the 3rd field battery to
the assistance of the troops in order to drive the
enemy back from the river had he succeeded in
crossing, but before his arrival there after night
fall the enemy had already ceased firing and retir
ed. During the night at about halfpast one A. NJ
the enemy attempted to construct two pontoon
bridges opposite Frassnetto, but being harassed by
brlsk hre from our batteries he renounced his
project and again retired about eight A. NJ. The
reconnoissances made by the troops of Casale after
the engagement, showed that the enemy had aban-
doned Balzola, and subsequently Terranova and
Vilanova We have to deplore the loss of six kill
ed and twenty-seyen wounded, all privates and non
commissioned officers.
