NEW COLONY.-NEW HOLLAND.

Accounts have been received from Bengal to the latter
end of April. They supply the following information re-
lative to the colony which is proposed to be established on
the south coast of New Holland :

" The location is to include all that part of the coast
which lies between the 132 d and the 141st degree of
each longitude. The spot selected for the seat of Govern-
ment is Port Lincoln ; a harbour, it is said, capable of
containing tl,e combined fleets of Europe, at the entrance
of Spencer's Gulf. The climate is far finer than that en-
joyed in any of our Australian colonies.
" The three main principles on which the colony is to
be established, are :--First, the universal and free sale of
waste land at a fixed price, whereby the colonists may he
prevented from dispersing themselves, and wasting their
capital and labour in isolated efforts : secondly, the em-
ployment of the whole sum obtained by the sale of waste
land, in conveying labourers to the colony, whereby the
purchaser of land will, in fact, pay, not for the land, hut
for the means of rendering his possessions valuable, that
is, for labour and population ; and thirdly, a selection of
young pauper couples only, of both sexes, in equal pro-
portions, as emigrants, to be removed cost free to the
colony; so that the expenditure of any stun in emigration,
shall give the most valuable return in the shape of the
greatest amount of labour and population. A proposal
has been addressed to and accepted by his Majesty's Go-
veroment, for founding this colony ; and the following are
the objects described in the proposal, which have been kept
in view in forming a plan of government for the colony.
The only modification required by Government is, that
the population shall amount to 10,000 before an Elective
Legislative Assembly shall be established.
" First, to prevent the progress of the colony from being
impeded by any shackles on its agriculture or trade, or by
any of the errors in Government, which the experience of
other colonies has discovered.
" Secondly, to employ the power of Government as a
great engine for promoting the prosperity of the colonists."
For the furtherance of these objects it is intended—
" First, That the responsibility of the Government shall
not be divided and weakened by a Council ; but that until
the population shall attain a given number, the Governor
alone shall conduct the Government.
" Secondly, That from the beginning there shall be no
restraint on the political Press; the b,st possible mode of
insuring the good conduct of the Governor.
" Thirdly, That the whole colony shall enjoy a per-
fectly free trade with the whole world.

" Fourthly, That from the beginning the Colonists shall
be embodied in a militia for their own protection.
" Fifthly, That from the beginning, a provision shall
he made for the education of every Colonist; a matter of
great importance everywhere, but which will be of the
deepest interest in this Colony, where, in consequence of
the selection of emigrants, nearly the whole population
will consist of young people and children for many years
to Come.

" Sixthly, That when the population shall comprise
5,000 male adults, measures shall be taken for the esta-
blishment of a permanent Government, which shall consist
of a Legislative Assembly, to be elected annually by the
male adult population, under the beset securities for inde-
pendence of choice."
