We have received Cape of Good Hope papers to the

18th December They mention the movement of Colonel Hare, the Lieutenant-Governor of the Eastern Province, to Colesberg, to coerce the rebellious Anglo- Dutch in that quarter. He will have the command of 1,200 men be- yond the Orange river ; and it is said that the force is to proceed to Philipolis, a Griqua village ; but the intention as to subsequent pro- ceedings is unknown. Much difficulty was apprehended for the troops, from the drought which prevailed in the scene of their operations. Adam Kok, the leader of the Boers, had made a movement for the attack of Philipolis, which, with other daring acts of contumacy, had provoked the resort to strong measures.
