Tonikinsvillo, St aten Island,

charge of a cannon yesterday
badly wounded a dozen men.

destroyed and he is believed
to be fatally injured. The
others will recover.
and beyond the mountain
ranges, there are groat plateaus
from 2500 to 4700 feet above
the sea; giving the continent
a mean elevation of 2000 feet,
or neatly twice that of Europe.
Sir Bartle Frcre says that this
elevation produces a temperate
climate from the northward
into the tropica, and that the
area in South Africa perfectly
adapted to occupancy by white
men is six times as great as
that of France.
