Rumors are rte IF impending troubles IN the
Transvaa 1t Is feared that If the Colonial Minis
tiers take energetic measures with regard to that
province an immediate disturbance Will ensue:
The announcement Of the dispatch of troops and
the approaching visit of Sir Garnet Wolseley have
probably dIsquleted the Beers.
TRYING To CAPTURE cETYwAYO.
The special dispatches of correspondents in South
Africa agree that the capture of Cetywayo is all
important because as long he is free he will re-
main the centre of conspiracy aud mischief. Gen
eral Woseley however, has no intention Of pursu-
ing him with British troops, as the nature of the
country renders such a course impracticable. HIS
policy rather is to stir Up the neighborlng tribes
against the King. Agents have been sent to the
Swazies and Amatongas with this object in view,
and 5000 cattle have been offered to Oham If he
will capture his brother. One telegram even SAYS
that a price has been set on Cetywayo's head, but
this seems an exaggeratOn.
It is reported from Luneburg that Cetywayo,
with 1000 followers, is endeavoring to escape
across the northern border, TO join Secocoeni. The
authorities are keeping good lookout Tor MN.
John Dunn and other we-informed parties think
there is great probability that Cetywayo Will be
killed by his followers If be continues 10 give trou-
! bic.
| General Wolseley, in an address to a number Of
! chiefs on July u, informed them that he had no
desire to take any of their territory, but that Getty
wayo was a fugitive and could never more be King.
| The Chiefs IN response, declared that the Zulu
| nation had now no head they wished 10 have no
! more black Kings. ana said that they would prefer
| John Dunn for King. They promised TO bring all
the chiefs of the coast districts to the meeting which
ever do constitute the most warlke part OF the
/ nation. -,
| General WOiseley has summoned all the native
/ chiefs to meet him him at Emangwene, about nine
miles north OF the Umlatoose River on July -, to
hear his final words of settlement. A flying column
started for Emangwene on July IL, TO prepare Tor
the meeting, General Woseley and staff Will fol-
