LAssOING THE ZULUs.-In addition to the cav

with the reinfOrcements from England, the gov
eminent Is despatching numbers OF horses and
mules to the cape from the River Platte, and
much interest Is attached to this experiment.
It Is confidently hoped that the South American
horses and mules will take kindly to the climate
OF South Africa, which resembles that of their
native country. II so, these animals will prove
valuable acquisition to the colony. Fleet OF

SHARP PRACT1cE.-Major George Duffey, COM
missioner OF the revenue, was the recipient,
yesterday, Of visit from very angry indi-
V1dual. The visitor was member Of the firm
OF W. A. Yates & Co., OF Washington, and stated
that one of their drummerS had been told in
Richmond that Major Duf1ey had telegraphed
there to have him arrested on the ground that
his license was not genuine. 1t finally turned
out that the informant was rival drummer
who represented himself as clerk In the Ex-
change hotel. The washington man took a
hui departure, leaving his trunk and sam
Co., about $50. The major soon convinced his
visitor that he was not guilty OF the charge.
THE Hummelshine, yesterdays report,
there have been received at Fishtown, about
$500 shad and 10000 behring's. Shad sold for
$7a$9 per hundred, and herrings for $7a$7T per
thousand. Much complaint is made of the num-
