CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

We received The Cape Town Gazette and
African Advertizer, of the 11th of August, from
which we have extracted the following contents

Notice is hereby given, that On the first day of September
next, a Flag-staff will be erected on the Lion's Rump, for the
purpose of communicating with shipS entering Table Bay, by
means of Captain Marryat's Code of Signals, now in general
use in the Merchant Service.

Vessels approaching the land, hive, therefore, only to make
use of that Code, as directed, for the purpose of either convey-
ing, or receiving, communications to or twin the Signal-post
on the Lion's Rump.•
It into be recollected, that at this Flag-staff, a Colonial Te-
legraph is also in use; but no mistake can arise therefrom, if
ships in the Offing pay attention to Captain .11Iarryat's Code,
Flags of which arc entirely different from those of the Colonial
Telegraph.
By his Excellency's Command,
(Signed) C. BIRD, Sec.

Cape of Good Hope, Aug. 8, 1821.
Notice is hereby given, that a Light-house is about to be

entrance of Table pay ; the particulars of which will be cm.
municated hereafter.

By his Excellency's Command,
(Signed) C. BIRD, Sec.
