News from DIR. Livingstone.
The Td'sunal Cape OF Good Hope) Argus of
January last publishes the following intelligence ON
the authority OF Captain J. r. WILKINSON
The captain informs us that he has just arrived
from MaricO, where he had seen Mr.. Marthinus
Swarts an elephant hunter, well known In this repub.
lie, and who had Just returned from one Of his annual
shooting excursions In the interior, the ZaMl-
best. While engaged In hunting at . certain point
above the Victoria Falls In the month OF
July last, he had spoken to q number Of
natives who informed him that they had
acted as guides to DR.. Livingstone, whom
they praised highly and who, they stated, had dis,
missed them ut the Chief Retanga, giving them 10
the same time various presents. These natives had
come distance Of twenty days journey on foot
from Central Africa, to where Mr.. NJ. Swarts met
them-vz., tsome distance above the Victoria Falls,
as already stated. The doctor well at the time
they left and attempt had besn made on his lfe;
on the contrary, he was exceedingly popular, and
was everywhere well received. From what these
guides stated to Mr.. Swarts 1t appears that the doc
tor had explored some very large river, and was
about retracing his steps when they left him. Ce-
popo is the name Of o chief the " other side" OF
Retanga, whom they stated tile doctor had visited.
We have no reason to doubt the truth OF this infor.
nation; on the contrary, we have every reason to
believe IL to be correct.

European telegraph. The following telegram.

Kurrachee, March 13-rhe cable is totally fractured,
apparently twenty miles west or Guadur. Its re-,
pairs depend entirely upon the arrival Of the seamer
Amber Witch, now in dock at Bombay Governments
has been asked to supply two tugs TO keep up COM
munication between Guadur and MussendOm during
the interruptions; II that request be compiled with
about fifty hours. The Amber Witch has all the
appliances for cable work on board, aud has only
just gone into dock for extensive repairs.
The Marine Superintendent may be able to INFORM
cable will probably be repaired In about eight days
thereafter. 1t appears from the Kurrachee papers
that the telegraph cable between Guadur ana Nus
scndom has been interrupted since eleven A. M. ON
the 10th. The prospects Of communication being re-
stored are unfortunately more remote tlan we at
first supposed. The Amber Witch. without which,
the repairs to the cable cannot be effected, arrived In
Bombay u few days since, and IL now In DOCK with
her boilers and machinery already removed. The
repairs to the vessel will take fully two months by
which time 1t Ii doubtful II the season will not
have too far advanced to allow Of the cable
being repaired before the monsoon. We find also
