! A despatch from Sir Garnet Welseley has been published, in which be announces the termination of the military 1 operations in Zululand. Oar pntroff hate, he says,, visited the most distant localities of Zululand, testing thereby the completeness of the. subjection of the chiefs, and the peaceable condition of the country. , . Sir Garnet's scheme >f Government is not favorably received by the colonists in South Africa, The less so, because John Dunn has prohibited the settlement of missionaries in his district. A proclamation ha* been issued to the inhabitants of the Trannvaal announcing that the country will for ever remain under the authority of the British Crown. The reading of the proclamation wm received with disrespectful outcries in Pretoria. A deputation, headed by a local dignitary styled Landroit, of WekkerBtrom, asked for the independence of the country. Sir Garnet said he was glad to meet the people, and hear their wishes and grievances, and that ilie first thing he had to say to them was that, as long as the sun shone in heaven, so long would the Transvaal continue to be a part of the British posaessions, and an English dependency.
