CAPETOWN.
The own correspondent of the Press Agency, writing from Capetown on 21st November, says:—Our differences with Cettewaya, the Zulu king, are as far off settlement as ever. The Governor is still in Jlarilzburg, Natal, and al) our available forces aig being massed at
various points of the border, but CittewayS whether from fear or want of,preparation, appears uncertain, and refrains from any overt act of war, although there can be little doubt remaining that he is the instigator of Ticcocem's troublesome conduct. The natives of the northern bordeis having taken to fighting among themselves made our task of _ dispersing them easy, and matters have so quieted down that the administration of Gregnal and West has issued an amnesty, from the operation of which only tho chiefs, and all councillors and leading men who have taken a prominent part in formingormaintainingthe rebellion, all rebels who were in receipt of pay from Government as headmen, and all who are suspected of having had any active Bhare in any murder, are excluded. _
