GEN. WoLsELEY's PLANS.

GENs WO1SE1EY = P1ANSs
LONDON, Aug. A correspondent in
South Africa agrees that the capture Of
Catewayo is all important, because as long az
he is free he will remain the centre of con.
spiracy and mischief. Gen. Wolseley, how.
ever, has no intention of pursuing him with
British troops, as the nature of the country
renders such course impracticable. His
policy rather is to stir up neigboring tribes
against the king. Agents have been sent to
the Swaizies and Awatongas with this object
in view, and five thousand cattle have been
offered Ocham if he will capture his brother.
One telegram says price has been set up
Catewayo's head. Gen. Wolseley in an ad.
dress to number of chiefs, July IL, inform
ed them he had no desire to take any of their
territory, but that Catewayo was a fugitive
and could never more be king. Gen. VOL
seley had summoned all native chiefs ia
meet him at Ewangwene, fort nine miles
north of the Umlatoosi river, July 10th, to
hear his final words of settlement. The
chiefs, at a meeting July H., declared the
Zulu nation had now no head. They wished
to have no more black kings, and said they
would prefer John Dunn for king. They
promised to bring all the chiefs of the coast
districts to the Ewangwene meeting. These
tribes, however do not constitute the most
warlike part of the nation. Flying columns
started for Ewangwene July IA to prepare
for the meeting. Gen. Wolseley and staff
will follow.
1t is reported from Lunburg that Cete-
waYo, with 1000 followers,is endeavoring 10
escape across the northern border to join
Secocoeri. The authorities are keeping q
good lookout for him. John Dunn and
other well-informed parties, think there is
great probability that Cetewayo will be
killed by his followers if he continues to
make trouble. All of the Zulus wounded at
at the battle of Ulundi were killed by the
native contingent in the employ of the Brit
ish.
SEVERE STORM.
The everest storm for years ragged Satur-
day night. 1t was attended by the fall of
hail stones, some being five inches in circum-
ference. The damage to glass around Lon
don amounts to thousands of pounds ster
ling. In great part of Bedford the hay
crop is completely swept away and many
cattle are drowned. Newmarket and neigh
borhood are flooded. The rainfall in Buck
inghamshire is estim ated at seventy tons per
acre. Damages by floods and lightning are
also reported from Cambridge, Norfolk,
Guilford, Lester, Bath and Margate. The
storm was terribly severe in the valley of
the Thames. Immense injury is done to
the growing crops. The damages by hail,
rain and foundations are irreparable this
season. Loss Of live stock is serious.
THE WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Cape dispatch says the chief Morosi
has submitted. The present trouble with
Barutos therefore is settled, but much dis
contentment still exists. It is feared there
will be severe famine next year in Zulu
land, as it is now seed time and no land is
being sown, while much seed has been de-
stroyed and many cattle seized. King Cete-
wayo, when leaving the battle field of Ulun-
di, told his chiefs to look to their own safety
and seek terms of peace as best they could
His army is broken up, the nation dispersed
and the king fugitive. Zululand will prob
ably be divided into three or four separate
principalities, each under the rule of indie
pendent mobiles. Cetewayo's brother, Oham,
will receive his own territory under this ar
rangement. Rumors are rife of impending
trouble in Transvaal. It is feared If colo
NAL ministers take energetic measures with
regard to that province an immediate dis
turbance will ensne. The announcement of
dispatch of troops and approaching visit
f.Sir Garnet Wolseley have probably dis
quoted the Beers.
THE Ex-KHED1vE's PLUMBER.
In the house of commons o-day, the
chancellor of the exchequer, replying to q
question whether the ex-khedive plundered
Egypt of property worth six millions on his
departure, said he had heard unoficially that
the ex-khedive had ordered large amount
of property aboard his yacht, but the govern
ment had no official knowledg, of the ma
ture or amount of property.
GAR1BALD1's SCHEME.
LONDON, Aug. "A dispatch from Rome

erly bend with Turin, and by deepening its
