INTENDED COLONY AT THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPES The following official circular has been issued from the Colcmial Department, in answer to applications for information on the subjects therein referred to : " DoWning-street. " reply to your letter of the I am directed by Eatl Bathurst to acquaint you, that as the circular letter die t' ictly specifies the nature and extent of the assistance which will be granted to individuals who may be allowed to proceed as settlers to the Cape of Good Hope, together with the condi tions under Which alone that assistance can be given to them, it is only necessary to refer you to that document ' and to add that nu proposal can be accepted which is not framed in conformity with the offer of his Majesty's Government. " With reference t your particular inquiries respecting the mode in which the views of the settler may best be attained, I have to acquaint you, that it is not in Earl Bathurst's power so communicate to you that species of information, which can most properly be afforded by the practical agriculturist, or ob tained upon the spot. " The settlers will be located in the interior of the colony; not far from the coast ; and in allotting to them the lands which Government have agreed to grant to them, their interests and their wishes will be consulted, and attended to as far as may be consistent with the public interests of the colony. " The settlers will be enabled to purchase a limited quantity of agricultural implements in the colony, at prime cost ;althinigh they are not debarred from taking with them a moderate supply of these articles, as well as necessai les • and they will find no difficulty in purchasing wed corn in thecolonv. " The settlers will not had habitations ready for their re ception. " The person under whose direction a party of settlers pro.. teed is at liberty to secure their services by any legal agreement, into which they may think proper to enter. " The new settlement will, of course, be governed according to the laws in force in the colony. " In conclusion I beg to obserde, that it must be left to the persons taking out settlers to form their own opinion av to the amount of the pecuniary means with which they should be pro. vided, in order to support the persons placed under their direc tions, and ensure the success of their undertaking. " I am, Sir, your most obedient servant" Extract of a Letter from St. Helena, dated 29th of May last :—" General Sir GEORGE and Lady BINGHAM embark for England to-morrow on board of the Regent. Report says, that he will soon re , turn as Governor. One of the transports with the 20th Regiment has not yet arrived. Count BAL• MAINE has returned here from the Brazils. We know nothing of what passes in Europe, as all the Newspapers which arrive are obliged to be forwarded to Sir HUDSON Lows, who destroys them after pea tusal. Even his own papers are nct exempted from this, and whenever he condescends to lend one to the Officers of his Staff, it is sent and returned un der a sealed envelope, in order to prevent the con tents being made known to any except the favoured confidant. I believe that I omitted giving you an account of the sham fight which caused so great an alarm in-this island. Sir THOMAS READE, the Ad jutant-General, being desirous of gratifying Lady Lowe with the representation of a naval night ac tion, gave directions to that effect to Captain WAI.I-• CHOPE, of the EURYDICE. Accordingly, at about ten o'clock at night, the EURYDICE, after a brilliant discharge of rockets, blue lights, arc. commenced a vigorous cannonade, which was answered by a brig, and kept up with great spirit on both sides, to the great admiration of such Ladies as were in the , se cret, and to the consternation of the inhabitants, amongst others, of Admiral PLAMPIN, who not having been consulted on the occasion, and imagining that the Yankees were endeavouring to land in order to carry off BONAPARTE, sent his secretary and the sig nal midshipman galloping down the steep side path from the Briars, at the risk of their necks, to ascer tain what was the matter. Nothing could exceed the confusion among the natives, the greatest part of whom flocked to the alarm-posts, where they re mained until day-light, while the favoured few who were duly initiated, quietly repaired to their accus tomed place of repose, laughing within themselves "at the fears of their credulous neighbours. The fol lowing day an order was issued by Admiral PLAM. Pm, to the squadron under his command, prohibit ing a repetition of night cannonading, without his consent having been previously obtained. Nothing further is known about BONAPARTE than that he is on the island." CORN-MARKET, MARK-LANE, AUGUST 13. Our Market was very thin of Wheat this morning, having had no arrivals since Monday; yet the wea.- ther continuing fine, causes heavy sale, but our prices remain the same as on Monday. Fine Barley conti nues to be inquired after, but there is little or no de mand for the inferior qualities. Oats fully support Monday's prices., In Beans and Peas no alteration.

In Herefordshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, and Northamptonshire, the crops are abundant be yond all precedent. In Cheshire, Lancashire, and Yorkshire, where the harvest is commonly three weeks or a month behind that of those Counties which sur round the capital, grain of every description is much forwarder than usual at this early period of the year.
