EX "I'RACI'S FROM LATE ENGLISH PAPERS. PORT NATAL. We mentioned-Jest week that the force under Capt. Smith, at Port Natal, had been relieved, by the arrival of the Southampton frigate in the port. The enemy dispersed 0n the reinforcements contained in the vessel landing, and the place is now securely in our hands. The following letter from an officer on board the Southampton details in a lively manner the operations which came under his no- tice, and also gives a general account of the origin and prog'ress of the hostilities of which Port Natal has been the scene:— _ , Cape of Good Hope, July 22, 1842. “Amongst the possessions ceded to us by the Dutch, at the surrender of the Cape ofGood Hope, Port Niltlll,a provmce .mdwhsrbour on the S. E. coast of Africa, was included '; and Latter. keeping up a military establishment at that post for sane years, the troops were withdrawn. Shortly after the ‘ msnelpation of the slavesin the Cape colony, Dutch set— up their farms, in consequence of supposed grievances from 'ithe British Government, particularly iit not being generally recompensed for the loss of their mggcrs, 2. Some of 'these mined in trade, others desperate characters, who con- sidered any change Would be for the better, left the Cape Jud fought their way through Cafl'reland ; and, finally, esta- .bhshed thetifiéltres in}he province of Natal, acotintry which ggnly requires labour tounake it the most productive of land, 'si it enjoys a delicious climate, numerous suinll rivers ih‘oundinw with fish, intersecting a rich sod of hill and dale ’it'nd'wooded pasturage, and a port (Natal) with every con- venience for trade with small vessels, which consists ofivory and skins. Here these Boors established themselves as a republic, under Pretorius, a German, as their President, and 'w has deceived these people by pretending to have the fat-1t ,ority of Holland iii the rebellion. John Bulltas usual, ' delpisod his enemies, and the consequences were disastrous. Six months ago, Captain Smith, in command of200 of the .. 27th Regiment, ii handful ofartillery, with two six-pouiiders, marched from Graham’s Town, with orders to occupy Nutul in- thenamo of'fhe British, and to enforce obedience to the laws, 8w. of the colony.

Well “alum, for, in consequence of the thick-wooded country, ,- le'onllen state of the rivers, and roads being obliged to be cut for the artillery, .tliey were four months marchingr the. i distnneoof five hundred miles; and such was the nature of '3' the country, that frequently no more than three men abreast conic entrance, and a few resolute men in ambush might have cut them to pieces. They arrived, however, in May anddrove the Boors fi'om thopoiut ofland which coni- Magda the harbour ofNutal.

This was done in consequence ofEu- ,pndung'ground for his bollocks. The Hours now mustered 'very strong, armed with long rifles, and always considered flood-hots. In consequence oftheir taking some of Capt. ’Sfiifl'fiiolttle to their camp, called Congella, a night attack ' was. made, which ended in the defeat ofC-apt. Smith, and two firms taken,afier doing everything a brave man could do; 15 men were killed, and they had ,to retreat at once to Wish camp, round which they placed large wagons.

Two iron warehouses, in Formby—strcet, owing to the inconibustible nature of their materials, though the fire for hours flamed against them with the intensity of a furnace, escaped destruction. About six o’clock two of the fire-police engines’, with atull complement of men, were hard at work, pouring a coli- tiuucd discharge of water upon the sheds of Mr. ill-Knight, when, without any warning whatever, a great explosion or crash took place in one ofthe warehouses on the north side ofthe street, and almost over where the engines were being worked. Simultaneously with the noise, the wall of the warehouse fell, partly into the street, and partly upon a shed adjoining, belonging to Mr. Gray. Some ofthe men had the good fortune to make their escape, but such as had not time were buried in the ruins. With every promptittide such of the sufferers as were not entirely overwhelmed were re— leased. Three of these were in the employ of Mr. M‘Kuight, and were, when the wall fell, in the act of removing seine goods which had been lowered “'01” the sheds Ofthat "en- ,tleman. All the wounded were immediately taken tonthe Northern Hospital, where every attention was promptly paid to them. ' In addition to this calamity, we have to notice the death of a very useful and very active officer ofthe name of Samuel Hudson. About half-past six he and officers Bates and Tuck were holding _ their branches directing the water against the warehouses at the top of Formby-street. Tuck, it appears, had some idea of the wall falling, and gave iiiti- mation to that effect to the‘other officers. A burning bale ofcottoii, however, fell into the street, and Hudson ran to— wards it, to remove it out ofthe way, when the wall fell and buried him in the ruins. Ttick, 'at the moment, seized hold of Bates, and pulled him from beneath the falling mess, and thus, happily saved both their lives.» ' ’ Lower down the street, the wall of Mr. Gray’s yard gave way, inst as three or four labourers were removing some timber, and they were buried in the ruins. Inspector Riding was also at this spot, and by the falling of the wall had his heel-bone broken. He was taken up immediately and con- veyed to the Northern Hospital, as were also several other men, who were severely injured. Several men were en- gaged removing cotton from Mr. M‘Kiiight’s sheds when the warehouses on the sonth side of Formbv-street fell in. There was, between the backs of Mr. thnight’s sheds and of the warehouses, a narrow space, into which the ma- terials of the warehouses and the merchandise which they contained tumbled in heaps of ruins, breakinvr away a por- tion ofthe sheds, and, it is supposed, burying” several men. One or two ofthe labourers were dreadfully injured one of them having his head almost severed from his body while the other hail his thigh cut in two. , . .At seven and eight o’clock, in Formby-strect and in the ad- joniiug cotton slieds(Poole’s) in Great Howard-street the fire burned With an intensity that heated the atmospherdto a greatdistaucc around.
